Re: What's the order of rallying?

I too generally just hit "R" as well - unless I know the whole platoon has been say under bombardment in which case I might choose the platoon leader and rally him first if pinned and he is soft as...

Re: What's the order of rallying?

If you want to rally your platoon leader first, then you select that particular unit and hit "R" of course.

Re: Accuracy vs Hit Chance

1) the accuracy number shown in the Targeting window is simply a "gunners guess" without any luck rolls etc incorporated.

2) The accuracy shown there is only for the slot 1 weapon. So if there is...

Re: Windows 10 - Sound Problems

When Steel Panthers was released on a demo CD stuck on the front of some computer gaming magazine way back in the later 90's, about the first thing I did was to turn off the sound. I've never used it...

Re: Windows 10 - Sound Problems

Basically what Don says - nothing like that has been reported in the life of the Windows version of the game.

Try dowloading the free version of MBT - see if your computer plays that one's sound....

This thread has seriously drifted from the initial topic!.

You guys should take this PBEM game setup stuff to private messages, methinks?

Re: Maximum AI Competitiveness

Give the AI a points advantage, try a 100% one and see if you prefer that. It's on page 2(?) of the preferences in the game launcher programme.

Additionally you can try making it harder for...

Re: Possible bug

There is no point in removing the entrenchment if the original unit goes out of sight again after you have spotted it. You have seen where it is once that happens.

It is only invisible in the...

Oh - and it may require you to unload and reload the passengers again and then "re-fix" the mounted pair at the new point, or the "ghost" pax appear. IIRC, the ghosts are sorted in the game play, and...

Re: Any mods or tweaks for the 'ricochet' sound?

Why not do what I do - simply turn the sound off?

The game is not a flight simulator, where the noises are useful things like an RWR lock-on warning, or a "Pull up!" announcement from the computer...
