Hi!

Well it seems the major proponents are in agreement with the idea of a free
fortification per company card and letting them fortify and control and "X"
number of objectives at the games start depending on the points played. All
terrain placement and objective remains the same.

If there are no major disagreements I'll include this in the new draft.

What type of fortfications should they get per company card? Does it matter?
As I see it as long as we dont give forts with firepower potential it
doesn't matter since they all protect the same.

Peter
