All of these issues can really do a good job to increase
scenario replayability. But then, there are some scenarios
that seem to be a bit different ...

Take something like #5 "Hill 621"

I have never found a player who disliked their experience
with this scenario (except perhaps the time required to
play it) and this is DESPITE the general opinion that it
favors the Russians.

Just speculating, this is probably due to (1) the "toys"
that each side gets to use, (2) the scenario variety,
including reinforcement timing and variety, and (3) the
combination of these with the "big picture" flows that
one gets to see as scenario play unfolds.

I'd certainly welcome comments on this. From you?
