Small maps, fewer turns

Oh, wow! Is it available anywhere?

Just wanted to thank everyone who's posted on this thread, the methods posted here generate some very interesting battles for MBT and WW2. It's given me a renewed interest in both games, which I have been away from recently.

Thanks, but yes I am aware you can move them and that is indeed what I normally do in these games. I was more wishing that the enemy would set up closer to those points in order 'protect' them.
This would allow little special forces type raids on isolated targets such as a AAA battery, radar post, fuel depot etc. which has a garrison but is not dispersed across the whole map.

I see what you mean now.

I thought I once read in this forum that the AI would ignore a victory hex below a certain value, so as to prevent it from trying to recapture it (assuming you wanted the AI to hold its position regardless).

It would be nice if in a similar way you could oblige the AI to favour victory hexes of a specific value in the deployment phase.
Therefore you could set up that kind of raid battle in the map preview screen by manually changing the points value of hexs, or leave the values alone and play normally.

Just a thought chaps, please don't be too harsh if its a bollocks idea!
