Dennis Jester

I am not a fan of games that have this type of feature. It is so open to abuse. Consider this situation that happens in games of PzC. I am attacking and my opponent is conducting a fighting retreat to a better defensive line being fortified by reserve units.

Now there are certain key defensive units that are consistently holding up my head long rush to disrupt the new defensive line before it can be consolidated by the enemy.

I move my units to next to this special enemy unit or stack and occupy the three hexes to the enemy's front. My ZOCs reach down his flanks to limit his movement to straight back before being free to move off in any direction.

I invoke the interdiction rule to target the one hex behind the enemy unit or stack. If the game allows, I increase the intensity with more interdiction strikes to the maximum allowed. The enemy unit(s) cannot move at all, or can move only one hex.

Another scenario would involve the game not allowing multiple interdiction attacks to be placed in a single hex. I would then interdict the target enemy unit or stack in layers spreading out behind the unit or enemy stack starting in that single egress hex directly behind the enemy unit or stack so it is now three hexes deep in all directions the enemy unit would probably go to keep the retreating screen in good order.
The yellow blast icons in the image below represent the interdiction strikes set by the attacker.

Whether the interdiction attacks cause losses, lost movement points, or both the effect is to create a some what solid force field effect behind the retreating defensive unit or stack. This seems a very unrealistic allocation of assets for the period covered by the PzC series of games. It is my humble opinion this type of rule could be abused to create very gamey results.
