Mutual attacks - where do they fight?

That isn't what you are suggesting. What the initial person suggested was that heavy infantry with a move of 1 should be made _useless_. This is hardly conducive to good gameplay, and it's hardly historical for harrassing attacks to wipe out a force with both superior numbers and better equipment. It's also not particularly good for a faster and completely inferior force to indefinitely pin down a slower and overwhelmingly superior force. Being able to harrass your opponent doesn't matter at all if you can't defeat them on the field.
