Confused A Couple of Questions

My computer broke down a few years ago, so I have two burning questions, as I can't play test it now and figure it out myself: 1. Will the map generator build trenches or do they have to be edited...

Re: Computer controlled units

I done that before. It's too easy to make a mistake in the computer world nowadays, so I double check just about everything before advancing to the next turn. Takes extra time, but well worth it in...

Re: MBT's

Mine carrying drones are not very realistic at this scale. Could use the scenario editor to deploy the mines before the battle starts though.

How powerful are minelets? What do they look like? Are...

Re: What happens in 2025? / new tactics- new technologies

Love it, designing patterns to confuse your opponent is one of the best parts of playing these games in my opinion. Reminds me of designing dungeons for D&D, designed like a maze, with the intention...

Re: MBT's

In 1988 I got shot in the head. Had brain surgery. Was on life support. Lost most everything since then. The fact I've been lifting weights and exercising all my life, before and after, has been more...

Re: Display issue

I set the delays somewhere between 5 and 15 each. The action is fast furious that way. Makes for some very intense firefights, just like the real thing. You miss most of the in game descriptions...

Re: Arty Efectivnes and Z-Fire

Having MG fire produce an HE effect without the explosions sounds realistic to me, because it simulates the effect of a spray of fire throughout the hex, which something what a MG does. I don't think...

Re: Arty Efectivnes and Z-Fire

This subject is very intriguing to me. I didn't know MGs produced indirect fire. Is that statement correct? If it is, it must be abstracted, because you can't fire over intervening obstacles like you...

Re: Arty Efectivnes and Z-Fire

I often wondered that too, from my experience a 1,000% Arty Effectiveness makes it too easy to kill enemy units, even with suppressive fire, so I believe Z-fire is indeed connected with Arty...

Re: Continual Battery Bombardment

I have. It's very rare. It's always with off map artillery units that have plotted a bombardment to start before the battle begins. Like you, I just sum it up as a vagary of war, and since it's with...

Changing Player Preferences During Game

If you can change the settings during the game, it seems like it would be too tempting for some to cheat. I can see the logic in changing them before any units are purchased or just to look at them...

Re: Taking cover

How is taking cover any different than defensive terrain modifiers?

Re: Continual Battery Bombardment

Sounds like AT0 is on the list for a court martial. 100% insubordination. In game terms, it's a matter of someone not doing their job on the battlefield like they were supposed to, plain and simple....

Re: 2024 Game Updates

Sounds like you've been double timing it for some time. That's a 200% effort. That's a mighty impressive contribution to wargaming. My thanks go out to you both, you and Andy.

Re: 2024 Game Updates

Good to know I'm not the only person trying to make due with a broken computer. Considering WW2 and MBT combined, I don't think there's a better tactical level wargame out there. Even though WW2...

Re: MBT's

A million in only one year? Sounds like their preparing for war. With the extreme population they have, they might be capable of making a billion in a fraction of time it would take most other...

Re: Experiment

I think the small blades makes the helicopter look "toyish", like a Godzilla movie. The spinning effect looks fine though, pretty outstanding. I think I could get used to it.

Re: Experiment

What you mention doesn't bother me at all, as the illusion of spin is vitally more important than precise dimensions.

That looks very good. A lot better than it is now. I even think it looks better than moving blades. :up:

Re: Steel Tigers dev team latest scoop

Thanks for the quick reply. Sounds like Steel Tigers is pretty much kuput. That Rolling Stones video was pretty cool too. I give it a big 5 out of 5 stars, and I never even heard of it before so I...
