scenario balance

[dthomas561]

I would like to hear what some others may think about this, but I feel that 2 scenarios in particular are a bit unbalanced. The first is Market Garden...this should be a bit harder or at least have the Germans counter attack Arnhem a lot harder ( I am playing at Rommel level) which would be a LOT more realistic. The second one is Crossing the Rhine which is a cast iron B&%#c which I was more than happy to go away with a victory and it cost me dearly in units and prestige.
Anyway maybe the play difficulty balance could be evened up more between the two.

I haven't played Crossing the Rhine yet so can't comment on that.

Market Garden seems fine imho. On the first play through without any prior information it is challenging enough. Obviously as all defensive scenarios with scripted attacks the knowledge where and when they happen is power so for further attempts it get a lot easier but i am a big fan of scenarios being winnable with a Triumph (DV) without actually having to know everything in advance.

Tarrak,
That is a great point about knowing history and where/when counter attacks are made LOL! Also even though I have stated that I think it may be too easy I didn't just whipping along either - I got to Arnhem in the proverbial "Nick of time".
