Zone Combat

Zone combat is a simplification of combat. Combatants are placed in a zone. All those in the same zone can engage in melee. Ranged weapons and spells can fire into adjacent zones. For example, a crossbow can shoot into 1 adjacent zones, a pistol into up to 2. The designation of zones is flexible, depending on the circumstances.

I'm thinking of trying zone combat for PbP, to speed things up. Has anyone tried this with GURPS? If so, could you relate your experiences?
