Luck of the Draw Scenario

I've got to say, the Luck of the Draw scenario really sucks for the Allies. It's hard enough for them already, and this just makes it worse. First, there's a good chance some of your better units will be lost in hopeless positions from the outset. (Nothing like seeing an elite infanry in Schonberg.) Worse, there's always a chance your reinforcements won't arrive on time; the risk of them not arriving on time hobbles Alied play far more than any benefit they may get from something arriving early. Allied defense is always hard-pressed, and a lot of the key decisions revolve around knowing how much you have to leave to defend a space, and knowing that a unit will be appearing in Liege or Verviers on Fosse the next turn is often key. If this suddenly becomes unreliable, Allied chances go right out the window IMO.
What's also depressing is how many random Game Center games now turn out to be Luck of the Draw, and it's always someone who's taken the Axis who's picked that scenario. Cowards. It's gotten to the point I just resign from these immediately.
