[WarInEur] Tuning the simulation

[sgminfo]

Being somewhat able to use the keyboard once again,


Some pertinent questions arising out of the testing of the game.

Poland 1939:-

How real is "real"?

Does the classic CWIE (I , II et al) simulate the Polish campaign well?
Do the Poles last as well as they should?

In the standard games without some of the optional Polish rules, the 
destruction is more a formality.
Yet with some of the optional rules, Poland lasts a deal longer.
With the new windows attritional rules this can be spun into a longer 
period, but, as several think, with significantly heavier losses, losses 
that the Germans can well do without.
On the other hand, losses to the German army, ITRW, were not exactly 
trivial, although to the high command those losses were cheap when put 
up against the destruction of the Polish state.

Without advanced attrition, the german bandwagon can finish the Poles 
and roll rapidly into a victorious winter campaign in the west,
with the need to refit and reeequip the cutting edge of the Panzer 
force, a winter campaign is more "problematical". The overwhelming fear 
being one of getting "bogged down" in  a slogging match that bleeds the 
Wehrrmacht white.
