I want to do some quick canvasing amongst the players for QB settings and any unit selection limits and "house rules".
Here's what I am suggesting:
Probe or ME battle (alternating each round)
Battle size: Small
Length: 30 minutes
Map provided by me
Map Preview allowed
Region: attacker choice
Year: 1944
Month: Attacker choice
Daylight: DAY is default (but if both players are masochists and agree, dawn/dusk/night battles can be fought too)
Weather: Random
Ground conditions: Random
Combat Force: MIX (is default but players can agree on other settings - as long as they are reasonably balanced)
Service: attacker and defender each can discuss and choose -- just make sure that if you set it to MIX, that the arm of service or country actually HSA tanks or armour)
Unit purchase: Human
SELECTION LIMITS:
NO cheap-ass, never-ending strafing Allied air support units (or we can leave out ALL air support -- too expensive with small battles anyway)
Arty? - size/calibre limits?
Big cats?
House rules on TRP's and pre-ranged arty?
I generally go with a "anything goes" philosophy -- it worked pretty well in my mini-campaign vs @Paleolithic Monk last year.
Open to any suggestions.
