Free to place? Or pre-placed...


Recommended Posts

Depends what makes sense in the briefing (background to the mission). In my mind the player is always playing a role. In the briefing I usually address the player as if they are part of a bigger story so I will call them "Commander" or "Major"/ "Hauptmann".

Sometimes in my scenarios I put the player in the role of a commander who has had command thrust on them. In these scenarios they will have very little control over the placement. For example, a commander who has just been rousted out of bed will have to make do with placement locked. A commander who has been rushed to take over command of a sector may be able to place some troops and mobile units, but others like howitzers or heavy anti-tank guns may be fixed.

For an attacker, I generally allow placement for all units because they will all generally be mobile. But the zone in which they can be placed is smaller than the defender's.
