Rout Limiting

[Jgolch]

According to BigDuke66 Rout Limiting was used in playtesting. He states this in his posts both on the Civil War titles and the Napoleonic games. This raises the issue of playbalance versus realism. If the scenarios are balanced using Rout Limiting I would think it would be a "no brainer" in competitive play. Why would a guy commit to a full battle Gettysburg PBEM game if a certain rule would skew the balance of the game? I don't know. I guess to each his own. And the debate continues.
