The City Fight

[vince hughes]

Fred,

I think City fighting probably also comes out best in a 2 player situation. One of my favourite scenarios played was "The Iron Line South" from Fall of France. At one point, we had 14-18 assaults going on in town hexes. Now I can see in a solo game this would become very laborious to play out. But in our game, it had us both cogitating of which one to reinforce, which one just to place 'enough' holding forces and hope to cling on, which one to activate first etc. etc.

I do have ideas for city fighting, but it involved bigger hexes with sub-hexes with differing terrain within the town. Didn't get much support as an idea though ... so my idea was pretty rubbish :-)
