RE: France 14 Offensive Tactics
In regards to (1), yeah, I put in a battalion on the flank to block LOS to my large stack that will actually assault. They have a tough job (soak up fire that would go to the main stack) and are usually shot to pieces. The large stack also takes damage from the units in front, but due to its size it can give a ton of punishment back. Other times, before I move in my large stack close to the target hex, I move in a single battalion first. Its there to draw opportunity fire before I add more units.
Another point that I remember people making is that you have to attack on a much smaller front than PzC. So, far I haven't put that to use. The few small games I played have spread out objectives.
