I'm sorry but I don't follow you. 

The attacker never *needs* to go close the base. He *can* if he's really

stupid, though... therefore the battle will be decided away from the
base.

There will never *be* a "standard engagement" near the base, unless your
GM *forces* you to play one. Which would be a bit like me playing
Kasparov
with the referee ruling that he can't check me until move 20. It would 
limit Kasparov's options for no good in-game reason.
