A closer look....

Alan, I think you may partly misunderstand me. We already solved the movement issue with our own TEC, some time ago. We began developing it after having played a few games RAW and thing to ourselves, "but that's not how happened." Now our TEC doesn't quite come up with the same ratio of operational speeds as there was historically, but it has allowed mechanized forces to outmaneuver infantry in the open. I'm not sure the 4th Ed TEC will really allow that to happen.

I see the 1&½ MPs per hex as being a clunky and rather inelegant change. That is part of why I put up the table. Dan said the new TEC changed his last game a lot. I don't see how would have, but that was his perception. What i hope to see in the forums is more discussion as to the merits in the game system, rather than the acquiescence to or the defense of that pervades the discourse. I noticed that my road movement rates were taken up in the 4th ed, as well as opportunity fire and some hill rules. Only play and time will show how it all falls out.
