Ok I take it then that the pilot was American and fired on Canadian troops because they either had different IFF's or none at all??? You must admit tho that this is RARE situation. I live in...

Re: Does troop quality perhaps not matter enough?

One thing to remember about all Steel Panthers type games is that they are suppression games, that is why infantry fires on your tanks with no hope to kill it, it does however (in this game)...

Re: Friendly Fire from aircraft

I guess you missed my point, I cannot produce any data of blue on blue in the situation I depicted cause it doesn't happen. Perhaps you can provide some cases of blue on blue in a "friendly" zone of...

Re: Scenario 1: How can you win this as the U.S.?

Well first off, it sees to me that Clauswitz included MASS in his nine principles of war, hence the 3:1 was developed to give a "number" to this principal.

As a Viet Nam vet I have had "actual"...

Re: infantry toughness & small arms fire?

Also the rating of your troops will (in this game) determine how well they handle rifle fire. I.E. Green troops don't fair well (which is why I detest senario's where the designer hands you all...

Re: Game Crashes and flashing screens

I do not get the flashing screen in full mode but the game does minimize by itself from time to time. I wonder it the flashes are related to that and on these flashing machines the game just doesn't...

Re: Friendly Fire from aircraft

Heh ok the system is unable to handle it, but don't quote me a few "rare" situations and tell me the IFF system doesn't work. Sure there will be some foul ups but in the main the system works (even...
