North Africa unit morale
I know this is a discussion that can never end, but the morale settings in some of the PzC games sometimes leave me scratching my head.
I'm playing the Operation Compass scenario from El Alamein '42 and at the same time I am reading the excellent 'The Crucible of War' by Barrie Pitt (recommended to me by members of the club). In the book I am right now reading about the attacks of the Australian 6th Division against Bardia and Tobruk during Operation Compass. Barrie Pitt speaks very highly of the fighting prowess of the Australian troops, so I was looking forward to the 6th Australian Division arriving on the battlefield....and when they finally arrived they are Morale C!
That hardly seems like the soldiers who captured Bardia and 40,000 Italian prisoners for the loss of only 130 Australian lives. Meanwhile, other units on the map, such as the 3rd Coldstream Guards of Shelby Force are a Morale A unit. A very good unit indeed, but that much better than the Aussies....?
