I don't know,. I've always seen some risk in going flat out and ignoring all the Soviet units being passed. Initially I break down Soviet units to one division per corps (then build up), so I have a horde of units on the line. When the panzers make a hole, I have every unit in range try to plot into the breakthrough square to cut supply. Ususally out of 3 or 4 at least 1 manages to plot. This leaves the units in bad situations but it slows down the panzers and may force them to come back and reopen the breakthrough they created in the last turn.. If I lose units because they're now out of position, I've got more inf divisions where they came from.
My point is if the game is now unbalanced its because of the things we've changed. Those are the things which we should tweak in order to fix the problem, not by removing a valid rule that still makes sense.


If soviet plot penalty is still valid, why not increase the chance of moving a unit in August? Deleting the penalty in September sounds good and will help the soviets indeed.

Makes some sense, I'll put that on the issues list too.

Very well spoken, Varjager!

Well said, Varjager.
We all sometimes forget these people are doing this for free.
I hope you got some fun from this, Ed, Rick, Mist, Possum and others. Big thank to all of you.
