Posted on 25 February 2011 at 19:55:36 GMT I am thinking about trying out this scenario, however, a couple of thoughts appeared. a. Minefields and obstacles: Theoretically the defender can place them anywhere on the table, even forward of their deployment zone (Fair enough). For this scenario, I reckon that they should be restricted to no further than the high water mark. This would allow the attacker some beach to be able to land on - on the assumption that they land at low tide. b. Hidden minefields. Given the thorough reconnaissance of the landing areas, these should not be allowed. c. Artillery for the attacker. It would seem that the attacker should be restricted to Naval artillery only, up to a maximum of three. I can see the defender having more artillery available. d. With only naval artillery, the attacker cannot carry out any counter battery missions. They should not be able to lay smoke either. I think that I shall try to keep the defences relatively simple to start with, and build up from there. Does anyone else have any thoughts about a Normandy Amphibious assault scenario. Steve |
