Hello...
As regards my version... yours doesn't have to coincide with mine, eh!? I think I get what you're saying... leave the current version intact with improvements, right? For me, I'd like some 'improvements' too. Like a full unit editor would be a good start. A couple of friends and I tried playing an early war scenario... Germans vs. French. From a range of, two or three hexes a French
Infantry unit fired on a Pz IV platoon, and took out a tank! At first we thought it was a fluke of some kind, but it kept occurring!
Well, that got our attention! What did the French have that would enable an infantry platoon to fire at a tank from 500 to 750 meters away and take out a tank!? We found the French had an anti-tank rifle during that period. So, we did a little more research. We couldn't find if, or when, it was routinely issued and used by French infantry units. And even if it was, because of the attributes of small caliber rounds at high velocity they didn't seem to be too effective over a couple of hundred meters. Something to do with a round striking at any kind of 'angle' breaks up or deflects. Seems it has to do with size of the round, composition, striking velocity and so on.
Anyway... bottom line is... if we had a full unit editor, we could have corrected this anomaly and played on. As it is, because of this we have situations that occur that shouldn't and as such, none of us, even the Francophile among us, doesn't play the scenarios. So, having the ability to change the attributes of the units would save / restore that period of the war, which is of interest to us.
