The was an
assault variant on the AP website 2 years ago. I've never tried it, but it looks like it might make assault combat deteriorate fast for one side or the other.
Quote: They could have sat back a few hexes put up a Starshell and pound the Americans a few turns. But what I find out in these kinds of situations, the attacker gets just as "softened up" by the defender's artillery and return fire then does not have enough to carry the fight forward into the assault.
Some scenarios are like that. I had one those this weekend, no support fire power and assault the SS. (FoW killed my air support and messed up my one other chance.) Some days just suck!
