Re: Bar vs FG42 is it a draw?

Dig up the documentation and you may have a case. If not, I doubt you will get anywhere, regardless of how many posts you make.



You should use MOBHACK to change the values, test it an post...

Re: Bar vs FG42 is it a draw?

You dont understand how the game works.

The actual stats of the weapon is not the issue here. Its use is.

1. If it is used as an automatic rifle, that is, issued to most men in a squad like...

Re: Bar vs FG42 is it a draw?

I think the game is historically accurate in the sense that the values for the FG42 is consistent with its use as an automatic rifle and that it was used as such during WW2.

The FG42 may have had...

Re: Bar vs FG42 is it a draw?

It isn't in the game either. The FJ squad with the FG42 as the primary weapon is only one of many options. In, say, September 1944 you have 8 different squads to choose from of which 2 has the FG42,...

Re: Bar vs FG42 is it a draw?

The correct term in the game is "primary infantry weapon", which includes rifles, submachineguns, assault rifles etc. As the FG42 was issued (AFAIK) as the primary infantry weapon, that...

Odd, I'm playing about the same period and nothing like this happens (see previous post). On the contrary, if infantry and tanks are in the same area and pounded by enemy artillery, the tanks do...

Re: Deselecting unit / center on unit

You can also press "T". If there is no targets for the unit, it will just center. If there is a target, it will center on the target, but pressing "T" again will return to the selected unit and put...

Re: Artillery

Andy,

Forgot about the warhead thing - in this case it is "5", so I guess that theoretically, the penetration could go as high as "7" (HE-pen=2 + warhead =5).
I assume that the randomness in the...

Re: Artillery

There was a well-documented test conducted in the UK in 1942 where 16 Churchill tanks were driven through a 600x400 yeard area, pounded by 72 25-pdr guns firing at 72 RPM for 8 minutes while the...

Re: when to fire back

Depends on what you have at your disposal and in how much of a hurry you are. If possible, you should exploit any range advantage.

If you have tanks, mortars, infantry guns or artillery at you...

Re: Shermans vs T-34s

I think you hit the nail on the head.

The T34s reputation was gained in 1941 when it was all but impervious to German 37mm anti-tank gun fire and thus gave the German infantry a real scare. It was...

Re: Shermans vs T-34s

The hull armour of the T-34/76 and T34/85 was a mere 45mm while the front hull of the Shermans produced 1944/45 was 64mm. Once you calculate in the slope, the front hull protection was about the same...

Just dawned on my, that the Danish OOB should really be expanded to 1945 (or 1946 for what-ifs) as there was a brigade of Danish troops training in Sweden, equipped with Swedish weapons and intended...

Why 1941? What happened in 1941? Also, the Danish goverment did excercise a large degree of control until 1943.
