>The examples you discussed with a +1 all had a better probability of
success than two separate tests. So this is on the generous side. From
what I have occasionally read, many consider SG morale to be somewhat
over-generous. If you think so, too, you may prefer the +2 modifier.

The morale system *is* over-generous, in the sense that losing
casualties does not affect your confidence levels as often or as
severely as they should.  That's a separate topic, though, and Allen has
house rules on his site already.

I think the penalty for "leaving cover" and the penalty for "closing to
close assault" could reasonably be thought of as overlapping.  If you
were in hard cover (behind a wall) but not IP, you wouldn't get an extra
IP penalty for initiating close assault, right?
