Ex SPII player - observations so far

Counter observations...

When the DOS game was out (6.0) I learned against 3 very excellent gamers on "What not to do in SPww2".

Nothing beats a fairly good PBEM game.

Shorter scenarios, like DRG said, but on the ones I created, that is the time allowed for the quick scenario to complete that mission.

That said, when I play campaigns I like tough infantry (default setting), and setting the AI to Hard or Hardest (gives me a great challenge, nothing more fustrating then seeing my Hauptmann Wiess with 25 Kills get wasted by a P-51 with a direct hit!). I got one campaign going now with a German Infantry company reinforced with one platoon of tigers and one platoon of panthers, the Tigers have 7-15 kills for four of them (sans the leader with 30, he is almost a star) and the panthers all have 15-28 kills (sans one that 12 kills and died outright last battle). I got a MG42 with 90 exp and 6 kills.

Anyway I am raving..
