I played every SP till SP WAW… I found SPMBT and SPWWII just two weeks ago. So am not really used to their engines. I downloaded Win SPMBT about an hour after it became available and love it so far. Except…
I can not win or even breach the mine fields in an assault! The computer is putting a band 5-6 hexes deep and I can not tell when my tanks have cleared a hex! In the old SP if you held the mouse over a hex it would tell you the conditions of the hex. In WinSPMBT it just tells me the terrain type. It says clear even when I can see mines in it. How do I tell a hex is clear of mines if I have a immobile tank in the hex?
In SPWAW I could win a assault by “drilling” a hole in the mine belt with 10-12 mine clearing tanks clearing a 1-2 hex path in 2-3 turns. I have played three Assaults in WinSPMBT so far and even with 20+ mine clearing tanks and 9 combat engineers I have not made it through the mine field in the time allowed! (And the AI’s arty loves me sitting still that long!)
Any hints of how to get through the mine belts?
BTW LOVE THE UAVs! Makes my arty very useful!

The game should not be telling you it's clear when there are mines in the hex and you shouldn't be having that much trouble getting through the mine belt. ESPECIALLY with that many mine clearing tanks. Post a save game in this thread and we'll look at it
