Locking Zones of Control: Do you use them?

[milrevko]

That is interesting and I am glad that I asked because we have never used weak ZOC in all of our PBEM games. This includes the campaigns of Salerno, Tunis, Market-Garden, Budapest, North German Plain and Korea.

It just seems like a fundamental difference in the style of play. The obvious reason is that units can not march with impunity under the guns of another unit or in between two units

The best example of how the locking zone of control work is from Middle East '67. With out locking zones a Arab unit can be hit time and time again and retreat across the desert while taking losses but retreating each time. (unless surrounded by 6 units) Of course the fatigue will increase and it could or will eventually break.

The locking Zoc is exactly what happen historically. A unit would be surround by Zoc,s and captured, surrendered or destroyed. (Unless relived by its buddies)
