Musings on Normandy

[Plain Ian]

Its been a long time, but I believe Ed attempted to solve these issues raised about the impossibility of getting off the beach in his _Alt scenarios, so maybe try to play the _Alt version using the opt rules he suggests?

I don't have N44 to try this out myself to see if the changes worked or not.

I'll try the _Alt scenario with beaches at 100% and all the Optional Alt Fire/Assault rules. 

I'll also try the _Alt scenario with just the Alt Assault option as per Option Rules for _Alt scenarios. CheerfullyInsane has said this is possible against the AI but is impossible against a human player who understands the PzC system. 

I've played the scenario over the last few nights and hopefully the fact that the disruption removal test happens before the mine removal test in the turn helps. I've noticed that a lot of engineers recover disruption and then go on to remove a mine level in the same turn. If it was the other way then they would never get off the beach. I've managed to get Mines down to 0 but with every unit disrupted there is no way of assaulting off the beach.
