Yes Commanders being carried, I like Patton and Zhukov a lot but they shouldn't need 5 jeeps to carry their fanny's around.

Whether or not you think of weather remains to be seen in some circles. For an East Front guy like me I'd like to see something done with weather. Lets face it, about half the battles on the eastern front were fought in snow and horrible winter conditions. When that fluffy white stuff starts piling up, things like trucks and cars stop moving. When it gets deep enough even 4WD is useless. I've lived this in good 'ole Syracuse, NY for a time and seen this. Never rode a tank in the deep snow but someone told me long ago even they can get stuck if the snow is deep enough. Right now in the game snow is snow. Its not light or deep just one depth. Maybe we could have two depths light as it is now-default (so we won't affect the 1000 existing scenarios) and deep as a design option when movement is seriously hampered to like 50 action points per hex. Finally does lousy snowy frozen weather affect troop morale? Yeah, kind of but I guess you can pre-determine that in scenario design.

The deep freeze of it all. Does all the water have to freeze or maybe just the stream and minor rivers but major rivers remain open?!. Speaking of frozen major rivers, how much artillery bombardment is needed to break the ice? As it sits now ice can't break.

Clearing minefields, good point. Also, Did artillery have an affect on minefield density in WWII. Thought I read somewhere it did maybe I'm wrong.

Cheers!
