Default Re: Marines in Germany?

This scenario battle type should be Delay/Advance rather than Defend/Assault. In this way the point ratio is more equitable at 1:2 Marine to Soviet rather than the 1:2.5 in current battle type. If battle type set to enable purchase of mines, make purchase and deploy mines. Then save scenario changing battle type.
You keep mentioning this & the ratio of forces is not that relevant compared to knowing if they have had time to fortify positions.
Defend/assault tells you they have had time so there may possibly be mines trenches & other fortifications.
Force ratio not being ideal just means your intelligence stuffed up.
Assaults have had ratios of 10:1 for the attacker but they have also had ratios the wrong way round.
The biggest assault ever was Kursk where the defenders outnumbered the attackers by something like 2:1. Sure it was a disaster the beginning of the end for the German war machine but you cant call it anything else but an assault despite the force ratios being back to front.
