Lay a belt of light artillery - mortars, 25 pounder etc a couple of hexes in front of your advancing line. If you have some extra tubes, put some a little further behind the barrage line and use to...

Re: Question about Ukraine OOB...

You have your opinion and we have ours.

As mentioned earlier - if you really think you are the expert here, you can edit your own OOB with Mobhack for your own use. You can even post that in the...

Units in a trench may run away from known nearby enemy (say within 2-3 hexes) at thier turn end if the formation morale breaks - but usually they will just cower there. Trenches are safe spaces!

Re: Great game

Strange - I thought so, but it has been 10+ years since I looked at that stuff.

Posibly the reason may be that there are no swimming engineer things, so a water hex with a mine or DT etc - could...

Re: Great game

In and out directions are taken as what they are currently set to when you plot the strike hex. Set those before you plot the target hex!

The entry and exit sides are a game global value, set to...

Re: Great game

If you set your entry and exit points then that in and out direction will be used, except as it sets up entry on the target initially selected near the impact point, then it may shift the entry to...

Re: MBT's

The MBT game uses a data driven pick list, unlike the WW2 one which does it all in large lumps of pick code. That was done for flexibility, but in retrospect not an approach i would do again.

Re: Great game

Re: Obtaining the hard copy of the game with full box, manual etc

The boxed CD version was discontinued several years ago, it (physical box, "geting started" printed manual and CDROM) was expensive to make, store and assemble and also it was rather pricey to ship...

Re: Omaha Beach - Scen #9

I noticed that the buggy terrain appears on the map edge only after smoke has first appeared on the map. Everything is just fine till smoke/flame is added.

If you press "U" to clear smoke, then...

Re: Omaha Beach - Scen #9

Windows defender gave me an antivirus report when I downloaded that - wacatac.b1ml or something similar. Then removed it.

Re: Omaha Beach - Scen #9

Try replaying the turn from a previously saved game point and see if it crashes on you again (or not).

If it does crash again, try attaching a save game from immediately prior to the crash event...

Re: favorite scout units

Re: Running Full Screen in WIN10

The free demo game only has 640 and 800 modes available for its evaluation purposes.

Modern windows drivers and/or video cards just won't go as low as 800x600 mode, they assume a minimum of about...

Re: How to edit to give yourself an instant promotion?

The rank is only a title, ie a different string. It does not a thing as of itself.
