Re: winspmbt 5.0 ghost wish

That will be because the vision rating in SP is night vision equipment, and nothing whatsoever to do with optical rifle aiming sights. See the FC and perhaps RF stats for that, plus the individual...

Re: winspmbt 5.0 ghost wish

US marine scout snipers by doctrine are probably the best example, or UK snipers. Usually they are used more as FO's or scouts rather than shooting (which of course they can do too).

More to the...

Re: winspmbt 5.0 ghost wish

One other thing, that is doable. Give all snipers in all time periods some vision bonus (10?-20 in later games?). Realistically they were used as recon troops and usually issued with spotting scopes...

Re: winspmbt 5.0 ghost wish

I agree if this could be done it would be great. One of the main weaknesses of the system is the 1980's and beyond magic TI problem IMO. Plus I think it would be useful to model more variety when it...

Re: warhammer 40000 mod

Someone did do a basic mod way back in the day (dos SPMBT?) so its certainly possible. But you need to make new sprites, stats oobs etc. Plus you are gonna have to "adapt" alot of things like the...

Re: Unauthorized Poll for SPMBT

Not exactly true. the flatter and clearer the terrain is the better. But realistically moving things show up in some modes, and metal things tend to reflect radar signals better than trees. I think...

Re: Motorcycle/bike inf question/weirdness

Not having a copy of spww2 how does that work? Just like an unarmored transport? with some small crew size?

Could motorcycles be done in such a way in MBT? or is it game code thing?

Re: Max values/game mechanics question

Hi Imp,

Basically I'm currently modeling plasma type weapons as HEAT, I was trying to do it all with HE.

HyperKineticPenetrators will get to be sabot/AP

Re: Motorcycle/bike inf question/weirdness

So are bicycles easier to kill than motorcycles or vice versa?

Also how big is the speed effect? I'm seeing these guys get fairly well killed at low/no speeds as well. If they move ~6 shouldn't it...

It seems to me that motorcycle infantry dies much quicker compared to regular infantry when fired upon. Is that correct for the unit class or am I seeing things? Is it the same case for bicycle...

Thanks Imp, I didn't realize there was a clone function! (new to some of this)

At this point I'm trying to "rough-in" some basic parameters for Hammers slammers mod I'm trying to resurrect.

Re: Max values/game mechanics question

I've done most of the FC testing as you describe. The main issue seems to be that once movement gets up to a certain point accuracy really falls off. I may play with the accuracy ratings next to see...

Well most of my questions are coming from many hours of "testing" because the results I'm getting are somewhat counter intuitive to me.

MY conclusions are that stab ratings greater than 6 don't...

Confused Max values/game mechanics question

As a caveat I'm trying to do "stupid" (future combat) things that the game really wasn't designed to do with it, but I have some questions on some of the values for vehicles.

So I'm curious if...

V2.0 orbats from dos do not work with the current mobhack (I wouldn't be asking otherwise)

Re: oob conversion

Thanks Troopie, but this orbat is 2.0 and it most certainly doesn't work. The current mobhack will read it, and the unit names are there but no stats (all 0).

DRG, perhaps you misunderstood my intent. I wasn't asking for you guys to formally introduce it into the game for a start.

Is there any way SPMBT simulates this? Its basically a linear charge fired by rockets to clear a lane through a minefield its very rapid (i.e. seconds) and effective.
