Re: Promotion Question

A good way to use it is to add a new platoon of the same type somewhere. Then promote the experienced crew by attaching them to the 'rookie' platoon (making them the leader) and put one of the new...

Re: Weapon and armour differences between MBT and WW2

There may well be discrepancies between the two versions that merit attention, BUT you should always keep in mind that they are different games. What works in WW2 may not work in MBT and vice versa....

Re: Promotion Question

The 'rule' is that if a leader is promoted 'down' the unit roster he becomes the #0 of the unit he is attached to. So if you attach D4 to formation E unit D4 becomes E0. Attach him to formation C and...

Re: Size units - a question

A paratroop infantry squad of 5 men should be size 1.

You're right that there is no general law. That's because it's very hard to come up with one. What would happen than is that people would...

Re: Size units - a question

You have to make a distinction somewhere. It's a necessary abstraction. Infantry units (including para's inf) are there to fight. Scout units (including para scouts) are there to gather info. The...

Re: 90th Division remarks

Which is the point exactly. The easy conclusion is to assume that that means the germans were 'strong'. The other side of the coin though is that it's just as easy to assume that the 90th was 'weak'....

Re: Size units - a question

Many regular infantry squads are in the 5-7 men range and these should be size 1. If you start making infantry type units with 5 or 6 men size 0 there's no good reason why other regular squads with...

Re: 90th Division remarks

Hmm, possibly but the story reads as a one sided combat report. The repeated referring to 88's and little else is a bit of a give away as it probably being less than objective. What's also...

Re: Size units - a question

No, the split is more or less at 4 men. If it's more then the unit should be size 1, if it less then it should be size 0. If it's 4 men it depends on the type. If it's a scout team size 0 is...

Re: Wheres my KV1 ??

I just set up a battle for 6/42 and my KV1cM1942's, KV1-M1941's, KV1-Ekranami's and KV1 flame tanks (KV8's actually) all show up.

So which unit are you talking about?
One suggestion, before...

Re: TOTAL WAR 1985

These are slightly different battles, a bit more to the north. Probably the reference to possible dutch troops threw you off. Those aren't the regular dutch troops destined for the north german plain...

Belgian army (OB 27)

Belgian mechanised units equiped with the AIFV-B (from 86 onwards) have only the variant with the 25mm KBA autocannon. It would appear however that belgian mech platoons had 2 AIFV-B-25's and 2...

Re: TOTAL WAR 1985

This may be of interest for this project. It's a link to the most detailed list of NATO forces I've seen so far. It's an OB for 1989 though, not 1985, but it should allow for a good reference point. ...

They're not there in my game. In 1997 the slot for the 'art observer' is the first on the second page(so after inf SAM section/T). If you select it you get the "no units are available at this date,...

Re: SEAD vs SPAA

You're right, I'm mixing up aircraft and helicopter weapons. Aircraft weapons have no HEAT values.

And you're also right that on occassion radars get knocked out. Sigh, I guess it's true, a little...

Re: SEAD vs SPAA

You know the system can't do specific damage like that.
The only thing I can think about is to give the weapons a HEAT score to use instead of the HE value. In earlier versions that wouldn't work...

Re: SEAD vs SPAA

AFAIK the problem with the SEAD is that the game system does not allow for an AP score for them. So the penetration has to be worked into the HE penetration value. But that is a lot more variable in...

Re: TOTAL WAR 1985

Not quite true I'm afraid. Only the part defended by the dutch and germans was 'open country'. The british and belgians had failry hilly and wooded terrain. Not good tank country at all.
