Rule suggestion: Amphibious assault retreat ratio
Posted: Fri Jan 27, 2006 4:55 pm
Proposal:
In an attack made solely by amphibious assault and/or air/shore bombardment, a retreat would be caused only if the attacker to had a ratio one level higher than would normally be needed. E.g., amphibious attack against London would require a 3:1 ratio to force a retreat; amphibious attack against Gibraltar would require a 5:1; use of Airborne or a land attack from another region would negate this, so if Germany attacked London not only amphibiously, but also with either an airborne assault and/or from Scotland the ratio would remain 2:1.
