Wishlist: Suppression: HMGs verses Artillery and Infantry

[Cross]

Hi Ray,

I agree that attempting to compare HMGs with artillery is ‘apples and oranges’.

I will run a few tests of my own, and see what I come up with.


John,

You seem to support the status-quo, but make a couple of interesting remarks:

"The simple answer is if probably if someone abuses it dont play them again."

What is the abuse of z-fire? You appear to answer this question in the following statement:

"What I am trying to say is most players I have come across dont Z fire them every turn they use z fire sensibly."

Why is z-firing a MG every turn not sensible?

What I’m saying is, that if HMG z-fire is correct then how can it be abused?

Do we accuse players of abusing artillery when they fire it every turn? Why not?

In the end, does the game ‘feel right’? When we have to fabricate agreements not to overuse (abuse) a weapon, that’s about a big as sign as you are going to get that something is out of kilter.


regards,
Cross
