Defense vs Offense

It was posted in another post but i think the only thing that could be done that wouldnt have to much effect on the game but at the same time it would give the DEF a little help and that is during automatic DEF fire that all def units fire all there shots instead of being left with some as Krak as stated.

The problem with this option is that it does not address the issue that a unit in a defensive position has done things to increase its fire effectiveness that would impact its fire during the friendly turn as well. Also, if your artillery fires both of its shots in the defensive fire phase, it is not available during the players own turn. So, I would not want the artillery included in the everyone fires rule.

The only reason that I see not to provide this realistic feature is that it will impact the outcome of scenarios in previous games. Even so, many of those games did not have scenarios specifically playbalanced for HTH play. However, it would improve AI play as the defender in that it would be tougher to defeat.
