Newbie: Which PzC game to begin?

[Drakken]

I am glad you mentioned you were using manual defensive fire as otherwise your question would have not made sense, very few players use MDF because of the extra file swaps that are required to complete a turn.

I have not tried this feature since I first learned the PzC system, but it would seem sensible to deploy outside of your opponents range and move up when the deploying status is removed, however it might also be true that if you are in their LOS and they have arty or air units your units might still suffer heavy losses during their next fire phase while in deploying mode.

I've wrongly read that most players play with MDF. My bad.
