Really big OBA.

Dr. B. has expressed his distates for 'generic" scenarios from early on in the development of the system. Vol. 1, Panzer Grenadier, had a system for creating 2 generic scenarios with point values for units in that game, as well as purchasing morale levels. This was probably included to help PG fill the vacancy created by the loss of PB/PL. No effort was made to produce purchase values for new units in the system once PG started selling like hotcakes. The PG system is an instrument for recreating historical situations, and we all have benefited from that, but there's no need not to produce generic situations as a test of skill and creativity. In an "Ogre" type scenario the Ogre is the artillery park and its spotters, and the mobile force is the attacker. We already have the instruments to create such a scenario through the C&C style force structures published in Cassino, C&C 1&2, Winter Soldiers, and Panzer Lehr.
