Hi Don
Fair enough, tarrifs data may all be rubbish but the cross country speeds Ive found elsewhere compare well. Tarriff works at the aberdeen proving ground. So Im guesing that is his source.
I dont assume that "my" source is correct. I am just pointing out that your current approximation for cross country speed (half road speed) gives wheeled vehicles better crosscountry performance than tracked vehicles. The only reason you use expensive tracked vehicles is exactly because they have a better cross country performance than wheeled vehicles.
I play your game because it is the most realistic tactical ww2 sim I know of. I dont like first person shooters.
Best regards Chuck.
