Well.. honestly, I'd probably recommend that our team was up a few points
(as Eric J suggested) just because we're at somewhat of a disadvantage being
on the offensive rather than defensive-- and we also don't have as much
knowledge of the layout to plan around (No matter what our "supposed" scout
sends back. I know it's a forgery. All our scouts are trained in making
topographical maps with standard brick elevations and have better
handwriting.) But if it turns out that their position isn't really all that
covered, or that we have plenty of cover to make our approach through, etc,
then their advantage is obviously lessened. I don't mind playing at a
disadvantage, but if the odds must be tipped further, they should probably
counterweight the existing imbalance.

We had mentioned this somewhat before - as it is, we won't be taking any structure
we use for free ... we'll be paying for it out of our CP points.  Given that,
there is already a balancing system inherent in the formation of the armies.
While we might be defending a structure, we will certainly have diminished CP
available with which to purchase troops and equipment.  If we spend 100 CP on a
building, we only get 8/9 of the resources for our army that you get.  Etc. etc.

That being said, I'm more than willing to work to try and balance the game as
everybody sees fit on Saturday.
