Limitations of the ADG system

[Chiteng]

I am curious....since the combat options are really just an exagerated version of 'rock-paper=scissors'

How many of you actually 'pick chits' or simply randomize the decision?

Pick Chit == at least in theory utilize your good commanders
assuming you have one. But, since we all know Nappy can flank,
Cordon exists to stop it.

Randomize == The enemy cant possibly predict what you will do,
thus there is at least a chance of dramatic victory.

I always pick chits. I know it may seem random but I believe that it is also like poker, so it has some skill involved. There are several factors that go into me picking a chit. My factor strength, his factor strength. My leader, his leader. Place of battle (position on the board, type of environment). Whether I feel risky, or should I go conservative. Should I try and reduce the amount of factors killed. Or should I try to increase the amount of factors killed. Do I want the battle to go 3 days, or be over early. Ultimately I think there are a lot of variables that I take into account when chitting.

Also, if you have been playing with the people for awhile, you can learn to read them. So that also helps.

Oh, and it just adds a great sense of anticipation and excitement to an already exciting game.

gotta go with ryta.

There are a lot of factors. Hey, more fun than just an odds table!
