1st Ukraine Front - Insiders look at a Play Test

Strela,

The amount of attention you and others working on the project are giving to the details both large and small is very impressive.

The period on the Eastern Front being covered in this scenario seems difficult to do. You're trying to build a game that is sufficiently balanced to make it interesting for the players but at the same time maintaining some level of historical accuracy. Not an easy task by any means. One thing is for sure and that is I look forward to enjoying the finsihed product. Thanks!

Ditto on Strela's comment. Thank you for the thread.

Indeed, as i know from testing HPS titles and testing at the Blitz H2H there are so many variables with disruptions, player abilities, fire results, assault results, weather etc... you can only aim to achieve a balanced scenario for an 'average or all things being equal ' game, the variables will then alter the result one way or the other, but it is also the variables that make PzC such fun IMO. :)

How much historical accuracy has to suffer to achieve a balanced scenario is often another tough call a designer sometimes has to make. ;)

Great AAR.
