- is it possible to speed up the inter-turn phase? Some big scenarios take 10 minute only to show the arty barrages

- I can't understand how aircrafts work, a lot of time I wasted my grachs strikes against empty hexes, they rarely engage opportunity targets near the choosen hexes...sometimes they even make friendly fire...it's something related to the spotter LOS?

- How much points are needed, in a generated scenario, to recreate a battalion size clash? Circa

If you have not tried to play, that is study the tutorial scenario, I strongly urge you to do so.

I done the tutorial, now I'm playing some scenarios, I have played "soviet glory" and another with soviet advance versus england defenders in late 80s; both draw...but I almost totally destroyed the enemy forces.

I can't understand if AI is a worthy opponent, against the english I choose the soviet but I think that the scenario was made with human as english, because the soviet forces are totally overwhelming.

One thing that I'm not so able to manage is the mech infantry, sometimes I deploy the grunt too far away from the clash and sometimes too inside it....

I want to try some PBEM but at the moment I haven't an opponent

From the scenario description

Soviet Glory*



Note: If played against the AI, the human player should take the Soviet side.*
* SPECIAL VICTORY CONDITIONS: This scenario has only two victory categories: victory or defeat. The Soviet player is considered victorious by having 800 or more points at the end of the scenario than the West German player. The Soviet player is considered defeated by having less than 800 points at the end of the scenario than the West German player.*

You played the correct side and if you had 800 points more than the AI won the game. I'm a bit puzzled though you said... "that the scenario was made with human as English"..... there are no British troops in that scenario

If your willing to just do a couple of turns a week I can show you the ropes if you want to PBEM.
Private message me your email address and I will take you through setting one up.
Your choice of sides l would suggest a meeting engagement & would be happy to use a smaller force than you, say 70% the size of yours.
Experienced player but happy to give feedback on the game if you ask to help you learn faster.
