Optional Fire/Assault Results

[Green]

My assumption has always been that these optional rules were included simply to allow for those who wanted to remove some of the element of luck from the game and so make it a fairer contest. Consequently, not using them presumably reflects the level of variability that is believed to more realistically simulate actual combat.

Apart from their use in the Japan games I have never encountered anyone wanting to play with these rules selected. Personally I would not want to use them and I would not mourn their loss if they were removed as options. Of course, others may think differently.
