RE: Locking Zones of Control: Do you use them?
Maybe with prepared positions, yes, but a company per kilometre isn't going to cut it when you're being attacked by any serious concentration of enemy forces. You would get the historical situation mid-late war situation of the Soviets rushing through gaps between strongpoints, taking them out one by one.
In a game situation, there will in many cases be no trenches or even improved positions, which means you have a company holding a kilometre of ground with nothing to fall back on/to and with little means to stop the enemy after the exposed heavy weapons have been taken out.
Also, by their nature, strongpoint defenses are vulnerable to infiltration.
