I was wondering if there's an easy way to transpose a new Exp/Mor set of values into an established scenario using Scenhack. Right now i've been doing it on an indiv. unit basis which is tiresome. ...

Re: Tactics, Time and Steel Panthers

308: Battle of Lemburg 12/44 has 32 turns and that is not exactly a short time limit scenario. When I read that I expected to see something with half as many turns as it does have.

However,if you...

Tongue It was totally not my fault

Obviously the game is faulty.
The Developers are to blame.
My battle plan was infallible. ATTACK!
(ok....I did only have 12 turns.)

Re: Satellite images from Ukraine

Always was their viewpoint that Artillery is the "God of War"

One of my favorite metaphor comments from WWII is that while the West refined the art of Fire Support, the Russians just lined up the...

SP gun vs. Tank

Hi,

I've noted with interest that the current developers have acknowledged on more than one occasion that SP guns in the game work far more efficiently as casemented guns on a mobile chasis vs. a...

Re: Thermal Imaging and Smoke Dischargers

but whether Offensive or Defensive. Having units that can sit on ridges and X-ray smoke is a game changer of the highest order.

It makes for interesting wargaming. One of the...

Re: Thermal Imaging and Smoke Dischargers

Looking at it from another angle, can any Tank vets comment on TTS in different situations? The game basically portrays two. You can see thru smoke, you can't see thru smoke. Were there...

Re: Thermal Imaging and Smoke Dischargers

Just to throw emphasis on this. I'm now playing the NATO companion to the same battle. Not only did I pop smoke offensively to give my M1's and M3's a free for all fire-fest, but after the smoke...

Re: Thought or two of HE penetrators and game mechanics

I've noted that Turret hits, particularly Front turret hits (if the AoA allows) tend to absorb alot of fire, direct and indirect. A "quick and dirty" fix to make arty more dangerous might be to...

As a contrast to, your real life recounting, I'm currently playing a typical late 80s NATO scenario, only in this case as the Russians vs. AI. (most tend to be Russians...

Re: Thermal Imaging and Smoke Dischargers

To elaborate, my question would be, is using smoke dischargers offensively to create a "smoke shield" (which in the game is typically the 3 frontal arc hexes in relation to the unit's...

A question I've had for a long time as a SP2/SPMBT player.

Re: Rambo

I would agree overall. The problem with any war-game is that if one can memorize a pattern or routine in the game, it can then be exploited. Old SP and WAW pretty much made it impossible for an...

Thank you for the quick response. I do like how INF in this game keeps me worried at all times unlike WAW.
