No bug. As part of our training we practiced scenarios involving all types of equipment. While rare, there was a small possibility we could have faced these if the war dragged on and attrition began to set in. My main reason though for adding them into the campaign was just to add variety.

Also, since we were still equipped with M60's at that time (actualy were until after June 1987) it would be hardly fair for the player to have to face hoards of T80's and T72's.



Ahh. I see. Well, that makes sense, althrough i disagree with your opinion that that replacing T-10 with T-64s / T-80s / T-72s would be unfair. Sure, they are better armored & armed, but M-60TTS have thermal sights, wich, (at least in game) gives them great advantage over any russian tank. And their 105 mm guns and FCS works good enough against any opponent of the era http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif. [Of course if you got the mortars to smoke the area]

[ Besides, battles should never be fair. In real life, if a battle is fair, it usually means that commander of one of the sides failed to do his job properly http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif. ]

IMO, in campaign, russians should be starting with top-of-the line equipment, and older tanks should appera in later battles, as B & C category units are brought to battlefield.

Anyway, good work, man. I really enjoy playing that campaign. [Althrough it is a bit too easy for me. I've hoped tht russians will put a better fight http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif. ]

I was taking into account that 3/8 Cav and 2nd ACR would have decimated the lead WP units in the intial days of the war with little left by the time they got to 8th ID. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

I've gotten several comments from players who said it was pretty easy BUT I've gotten a few emails from those who can't get past the 2nd Scenario. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif

What I would like to do once I get more familar with the Enhanced CD Editor Tools is do a LARGE Silver Lion Campaign. I will also need to learn more about Campaign design such as determining adequate but challenging build and support points settings. I am finding its alot more than just stringing together individual scenarios and calling it a campaign. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

DD,

I am also working on a 1988 campaign and a large and its going to be tough. I have the first map done and am placing the forces now.

I hope you can help me with it. I have read the editor help and understand about 2/3rds of it.

Shadow - Do you have the CD Version with the extra Editor? I would take my time with it as far as setting waypoints for the AI forces and stuff. The mention of a Reaction "98" where defening units can be made to stay in place looks very promising.

Do you have MS Excel? Just wondering as I have recreated the Campaign Design Matix in it and it works wonders for keeping me organized when linking the scenario and setting Buold/Support points.

I have thought about it BUT no time right now. I would like to do something fomr a Warsaw Pact BMP Company Commander's view. Nt really a Soviet unit but one of the WP Satellites (most likely Poland, East Germany or Hungary).
