Re: AIFV costs, should them be lowered or not?

No, I don't think so.
They seem too expensive because you pick an example in which they are clearly the inferior weapon system. In this game, all depends on what system has the edge over what...

Re: My Strike aircraft targeting MY ammo trucks?!?

Hi Andy,

this (see attachment) is the exact same set up I've been using in the test described above. After starting the game the pregame A-10 strikes will occur. They have been plotted already...

Re: My Strike aircraft targeting MY ammo trucks?!?!

Been running the same test a number of times now; US (human) vs NK(computer), 10/2003, map 110 by 120, 5000 points each, US forces 8 a-10's with mixed load (incl mavericks), 4 patriots with an...

Re: My Strike aircraft targeting MY ammo trucks?!?!

Hi Mike,

you're going to have to be more specific about this; I've been trying to recreate it but with no luck. I can't get my aircraft to target my own SAMs. What category of aircraft where you...

Re: Riflemen have too much ammo

Soviet riflemen actually had 4 magazines, 1 in the weapon and 3 spares. Times 30 is 120 rounds. The ammo load reflects single round fire for rifle types. If it is supposed to reflect bursts, I guess...

Re: Question about infantry assaulting tanks

I read a story on a forum about an Italian or Rumanian officer (mountain troops I think it was) who attacked a russian tank on the east front with a hammer, lacking any AT weapons. He started banging...

Re: DUTCH TERROR! Mini campaign - playtester needed!

Sounds like fun!
One tiny detail though, it's called the 'Bijzondere Bijstands Eenheid' (note the extra e in eenheid).

PS but can you pronounce Schalkwijk?...

Re: Elevating infantry units

If feasible this looks like a good idea. However, since we are talking about a 50m hex why not have a full squad deployed in upper stories of a building?

The "1 to 3 men units only" might be an...

Re: spotter plane problems

Yeah, but I'm not sure if that points to the same problem, and as you can see in the thread, no final answer on it. It also mentions few people complaining about it so far so I guess I might be the...

spotter plane problems

Hi,

I've run into some problems with spotterplanes. I can't change the aircraft in and outbound hexsides in the spotter screen or in the airborne screen. I can in the artillery screen though. When...

Re: LOS aid

Finding the right spots is recon work. So use recon to find them. I would certainly be against the option you suggest, not realistic at all.

Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

Yeah right C, and dropping para's at the last moment so they can't be fought isn't 'lawyering' but real 'fighting'?
You really think you're the first one to think of this tactic? I noticed it's...

Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

Opinions differ on it. Some like to keep it more realistic, others don't mind using game features to exploit certain tactics. Same for how far in the game drops are allowed, opinions differ.
It is...

Re: Improvement proposal I - OP fire draining

Isn't nr 2 just another way of describing recon by contact? And isn't that an age old tactic? It's like taking turns taking point on a patrol. Except you don't let the guy with the only radio take...

Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

Well, dropping para's (in any numbers) on or close to VH's in the last stages of the game is generally considered to be a 'gamey' tactic. It makes use of the purely abstract system of a fixed (and...

Re: WinSPMBTver2.51-- Gun tube orientation

It did for an opponent of mine (and me) a while ago when he tried to continue our 2.5 game with the 2.51 patch installed.

Re: Improvement proposal I - OP fire draining

How many categories would that take? I suspect a lot more than you think or you'd end up with units not firing at potential threats to themselves. A jeep with an mg is not a threat to a tank, one...

Re: Improvement proposal I - OP fire draining

The point is that as a player you have no on the spot control over the OP fire as it is resolved (assuming we're talking about PBEM suitability here). Which means that whatever system you come up...

Re: Improvement proposal I - OP fire draining

Artur, I'm sorry I'll have to disagree with you. The OP fire draining is not a 'disease' of the game engine. As c_of_red already pointed out, OP fire draining simulates an age old tactic.

Re: What are your favorite units in the game?

I don't think you did, unless there was a serious bug. Three paratroop infantry battallions (nine companies) alone cost just under 5000 points, and that's in the cheapest possible configuration. And...
