Alternative Solo Hidden Units method
I'm setting up a solitaire play of Scenario 3, "Collision Course," from Liberation 44. The Brits are allowed four hidden units. I have yet to play a solo scenario with hidden units. Looking at this one it seems the Brits also have to move out as the scenario is a meeting engagement so the idea of having double the possible places where a hidden unit could be and then doing a random drawing when an enemy unit moves into LoS the unit will not work. (I've never liked this idea as it could cause a defense to unhinge by a fake unit showing up)
I wonder if it simply would be better to simply set up the Brits minus the four units, then set up the Germans, and then set up the four "hidden" units. That way it is some sort of "surprise" to the Germans and give the Brits a bit of advantage they lost through not having real hidden units. This way you have no record keeping, no randomness to you defense and you don't have to increase the Brit OB.
What do you guys think?
