Have you actually read the manual for the game?. It seems not, as the fitst section on the first page is entitled What is WinSPWW2?.

And if you read that section you will see:

One unit playing piece represents one vehicle or gun, or an infantry section or squad of up to 19 men or a section of 1 to 4 support weapons

.

Should you bring up a valid point, we may feel it necessary to adjust the issue OOBS, however we are not going to get into endless repetetive arguments about whether some rifle should be 2 or 3 HE kill points, or some section 10 men or 11.

We have already pointed you to the Mobhack editor, where you can make minor adjustments to adjust the game OOBS to suit your particular world-view.

Now, on the old abandoned Yahoo message board, you got into endless circular arguments about anti-tank rifles and whether 5mm of armour should count as 1 cm or whatever. This obsessive focussing on game trivia led you to getting banned from there as a "troll". As did "Leopold Leo" for similar behaviour.

You are rapidly going that way on this board.

Trolling is forbidden under the board rules (you can see these if you click on the link on the top right of the message board screen). It can lead to your account being terminated.

Regarding the trucks - I have a point Instead of labeling the truck Opel, and having folks complain about particular truck type being not present, how about simply labeling trucks: Light, Medium, Heavy ? After all, they all have an engine, four wheels and don't really drive well offroad. Exceptions could be done to "special" truck types.

This is what I originally did. There is really no point in giving a truck anything other than a "generic" name. Unless perhaps it brings something radical to the game (E.g a Soviet WW2 Zis-42 truck, with half tracks, to make it stand out from the standard 2WD "medium truck").

A generic naming would save OOB slots as well, especially in crowded OOBS.

However the various independant OOB designers decided to expend OOB slots on "named" trucks, which may differ by 2 carry points, or be slightly slower or faster etc.

As far as I am concerned, rather a waste of space, and a PITA when trying to get OOBs in line ("why is the GM423 truck in the Ruritanian OB 1 point faster than the one in the Ferengi OB" type questions), which a simple generic truck class would nuke (I could do a simple SQL query on the database for "medium truck").

However, some folk see that sort of micro-dot detail stuff as "realism" .

For me the naming of the trucks is on the same level as having commander's names displayed - it adds to the feeling That's why i've added several different trucks to my MBT Czechoslovakia OOB
