Re: [GZG] re: New to Rules- Close Combat Question

["Roger Books" <roger.books@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just helped my GF design her ESU PA assault squad.  Slow Heavy PA
and half the 8 man squad has Flachette Cannons. (Assault Shotguns
with an impact of d10).

Now I'm afraid to face them as she has seen the shock and awe PA
cause in  a close assault.

I'm running a scenario where it's important for the attacker to do
things quickly. The attacker has PA and the defender does not. Plus the
attacker has better quality troops. It's hard to convince the attacking
player that closing the distance and getting into close combat is much
more effective for him than sitting at distance and trying to get hits
on defenders in hard cover.
