You are right in that they are not balanced for PBEM as such.

In fact, articles in AH General from 80s discuss some of the PL (or PB for that matter) scenarios are favouring one side so some of them are a bit biased to begin with.

What these situations are they are exact transfers of boardgame map and OoBs into JTCS.

For instance:

[Meuse River, France] [AXIS/ALLIED] [HISB] [GD]

Cherey: Guderian Attacked:

The French 213th Infantry Regiment and the 7th Independent Armored Battalion, both from the 55th Infantry Division, attack the German 1st Panzer Division's bridgehead across the Meuse River.

[ALL: OPT] [2.02]


It is in that aspect I made my comment these early war situations are a better fit for what in JTCS context are quite small maps. Shorter weapon range with less deadly effects and all that.

Best enjoyed as Axis or Allied vs AI. For more balanced PBEM fun perhaps play these as mirrored games so that both players play both sides, then compare your notes to determine who's the top dog.
