Re: PBEM Fail Problem

The game sometimes does that, there is no way to stop it.

Use the "fix formation leader" function to reset the leader. That is what the function is for, sfter all. I cannot recall if it is...

Re: A0 HQ/Force Morale/Off-map Comm

That is because the second HQ is just another unit, nothing msgic about it since it is not the A0.

The second HQ may act cautious like the A0 from its unit class, but it has no side benefits - it...

Re: A0 HQ/Force Morale/Off-map Comm

There shall be one HQ unit, and it will be the A0 in any force. Anything else is undetermined in the AI code.

As Don said while I was posting - the A0 is the HQ for the AI regardless of unit type....

Re: A minor question which always bothered me

The game does not care about "men" really other than a unit that gets to 0 crew is dead. It workis in damage points, which with soft elements usually ties up with the number of crew damaged.

Re: A minor question which always bothered me

If an element disperses, its a destroyed unit. If a unit causes them to disperse (say by area fire into thier hex, they retreat and decide to disperse) a kill is credited to the unit that triggered...

Re: A0 HQ/Force Morale/Off-map Comm

Lost HQ contributes to poorer morale, but the main fact is that the HQ element counts as several units lost (not 1) when calculating the percentage of units lost for the force broken calcultion.

Re: HQ unit for AI run side

Yes as the offmap units will be less avaiable due to comms problems.

As to how the AI uses the A0 - as a regular unit which slowly follows the herd of lemmings. It might be a bit more likely to...

Re: HQ unit for AI run side

No - the A0 is special as outlined above

- It counts way more than 1 element for the "force broken" calculation when in retreat or worse status
- It is the rear comms link to off map units, which...

Re: Interface improvement for area fire

The game has no knowledge of who fired Z-fire or X fire. Adding such flags would be exactly the same as the following (new core data).

Re: Interface improvement for area fire

from the version 12 release notes:



So no, the indirect fire hex for the unit is deliberately nullified per Z or X fire shot in order that it cannot be used for the above.

Re: Issues with scn 19 Goch-Calcar Road

There is no reason that an assault mission has to have mines or forts in it.

It does mean that the defender is dug in, unlike an advance v delay.

Re: A couple of generated campaign questions

Make a formation for your own use with a truck as unit 1 (the game determines formation type by what is in slot 1)

Re: Should air assets have counter-battery options

Plus, off map units have no local air defence assets. You would have to have some way to put SAms, AAA etc in support of the off map units. How would these units interact with planes attacking the...

Re: The FASTBOAT Patch page.

I saw some blue weapons in pictures of an article on training troops in boarding operations in the gulf.

The article specifically stated the blue weapons were special CQB training dummies.
