Re: Odds for hitting a sniper/scout unit

Re: Odds for hitting a sniper/scout unit

As a real life anti-sniper drill, grenade launchers are a quick squad option. Snipers in WinSP hold their positions too long. Most snipers are going to take a few shots and move to their next...

Re: New, rare or unreliable equipment

If I may, another way to reflect a limited fuel situation without dice rolls is to allow the affected side to move vehicles only every other turn. Infantry becomes your primary offensive weapon and...

Re: Survivability and aircraft

My main idea about this was helicopter passengers, I thought the game would just auto include crews. I thought it would introduce a random SAR aspect into the planning and background action of a...

Re: Odds for hitting a sniper/scout unit

Re: Odds for hitting a sniper/scout unit

Survivability and aircraft

As I understand it, the Survivability rating effects crew bailout from a killed vehicle. Aircraft (especially helicopters) seem to all have a 0 (zero), if this was increased would aircrews have a...

Re: C-130 carry amount

Thanks, I only need two of the 14 planes to carry vehicles so i changed the carry weight from 255 to 164 and was able to squeeze a few more paratroopers in. I still had to trim some of the squads...

C-130 carry amount

Since a C-130 can carry a RL capacity of 92 passengers, 72 combat troops or 64 paratroopers is there a game reason why a C-130 has a carry capacity of 55?

Re: APC Development and related topics.

In the pic is a good view of what appears to be a M2 MG, length of about 1,654 mm (65.1 in). Import it into a photo program (I;m away from my PC atm) and use that as a measure for a rough guess. ...

Re: Campaign Oddity

As I recall, if a crewed unit is killed or crew dismounted, the game creates a crew and progressively numbers it. Is it possible that when L0,L1,L2 were killed a crew survived as L3 and when you...

Re: Confusion about leader rank in editor

Thanks S_R,

I'm in the editor in the "modify unit data" function (not the change unit type). There is a button for modifying unit leader data including name and rank.
