RE: The Hungarians In Operation Barbarossa

<t> Many non-German axis troops were top notch. The real problem is that they were badly employed by the Germans. Placing a bunch of Americans armed with only rifles and grenades on a huge empty plain in front of a Soviet tank army will end up the same way if Finns, Romanians, Hungarians, Italians ...

RE: Romania's national characteristics are unrealistic

Thanks Alby. I've downloaded the game last night and am installing it now.

<r> If you doubt the quality of Romanian officers then please see the list of foreign RK receivers.

RE: Romania's national characteristics are unrealistic

<t> I wouldn't say that the Romanians fared so badly against the Soviets. Considering they were outnumbered almost 1:5 in infantry and the density of the medium AT guns were one at every 2.735 km in the sector of the 3rd Army and one at every 5.7 km in the sector of the 4th Army, I thought they did ...

Romania's national characteristics are unrealistic

<r> Not only they make gameplay harder but they are insulting to the Romanian soldiers who died in combat. I realize this is just a game but we can say just to many things (just a movie, just a book, just words, etc.) so where does it start and where does it end? The stats as they are now suggest ...

RE: 3 years and nothing changed

<r> Am I the only one whose impression is that we're trying to bite our tail? The first one says, "Increase the ratings." The other one replies, "No, leave them as they are." Notice the lack of arguments and supporting evidence? This has been going over 7 pages. So, how do you evaluate the morale ...

RE: 3 years and nothing changed

<t> I guess that experience isn't too off the mark (perhaps it should be increased a little), but since they are designed for green troops, this penalizes the professional soldiers like you said. So low, the +10 morale/exp bonus has absolutely no effect. I found that an elite dedicated 81mm mortar ...

RE: 3 years and nothing changed

<t> So far into the battle I knocked out only one tank and caused one soviet rifle squad to disperse after one ZB-53 team ripped it apart. After this I lost all control over my troops but what bothered me most was that only one shot from a T-34 sufficed to make my ATG crews leave their gun ...

<t> Stupid me.<br/>

"two versions of the same nation" [:D]<br/>

A better solution: allow the +10 exp/morale bonus to go as far as 30 to better represent the elite troops of countries like Italy and Romania. Then we alter the oob to apply the +30 exp/morale bonus and voila. Though ...

There is some truth in the actual ratings as far as Romania is concerned.<br/>

You have to remember that the Romanian Army was made of conscripted peasants whose training was insufficient and not adapted to modern warfare. This is essentially what Manstein ...
