RE: Why this, and not von Manstein's Backhand Blow?

Adam,

In the late 80s Clash of Arms released "The Last Victory," an operational level simulation of Manstein's Backhand Blow. It was designed by John Schettler, and used Schettler's Winter Storm system.

I thought that the back hand blow would be a good scenario for SSG to add into the release for an additional scenario since it should be easier to make since you would use the same map. Therefore nobody can complain about only one scenario ...

Why this, and not von Manstein's Backhand Blow?

Why has Matrix selected this battle, and not von Manstein's Backhand Blow battle, one which would (to me) provide a vastly greater opportunity for variants, thereby allowing for much greater replayability?

RE: Sign of times or just this developer?

<t> I started computer wargaming by purchasing some of HPS' PzC titles, and SSG's Korsun Pocket, Across the Dnepr and Battles in Italy.&nbsp; Across the Dnepr turned out to be a completely unbalanced game.&nbsp; Korsun Pocket and Battles in Italy were good, except for (what seems to me to be) the ...

Yes, the unit icons are a bit small, and could possibly (caveat - I am no programmer) have been made larger.<br/>

But, the game is so much fun.&nbsp; <br/>

Kharkov PBEM problem - any suggestions?

Just started a PBEM game as the Soviets.

Received my second turn from my Axis opponent, only to receive an error message that says the game cannot be opened because it is not registered on my machine.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

List of scenarios in TOAW III?

Hello all!

Is there a complete list of scenarios in TOAW III?

And, do any/all of the scenarios have a programmed computer opponent?

Thanks...
