Fully agree with Dion. Have been playing Steel Panthers since it's highly-flawed DOS days and thanks to Andy and Don, CD game with v.09 upgrades is spectacular.

I'm posting this here as I noticed this minor problem once I upgraded to the ver 9 patch. This is a very minor visual problem.

When in the game, if I right click on an enemy unit, an info box is pulled up. At the bottom of this box, where armor values would be displayed, the rear hull armor value does not appear. If I select the "I" button, I'm taken to another screen that shows more info about the unit. On this screen, the info about the rear hull appears to be correct. I ran some tests shooting at the rear armor of various vehicles, and when I hit I do see the correct armor values for the rear hull when the penetration values appear at the bottom of the screen. So it looks like it's just a display issue. I am running at the larger font, so don't know if that has anything to do with it.

I'm not asking for this to be fixed, and I'm definitely NOT complaining ;^) Just thought I would mention it before the final version of this game is sent to the Wargame Hall of Fame ;^)

PS Just noticed if I pull up the info on my units (by hitting the space bar) that the armor values for the rear hull appear noticeably farther away from icon that before the patch. I was using the larger font for the last few months, before the ver 9 patch.

And in case you need more info, running this game on my 16" Toshiba laptop, Windows 7, full screen (not windowed) display, 1366x768 resolution, and I have the CDs, not the free version of the game.

PPS Just noticed it with the WW2 version also, so if it's just a problem with my system, at least it's consistent ;^)

I get the same thing Steves describes with the armor values drifting off to the right overlapping another part of the box.
It doesn't interfere with the game and I do like the more easily read screen.
