So if 'overextended' doesn't work, then does this go all the way back in time to the 'ant unit' discussion?

Historically - if a small group of camels and motorcycles captured Alexandria, then these units should be included. If not, then these units have no place in the OOB.

Didn't the Long Range ...

If I refresh your memory you may remember that there is a Theater Option for a German Human vs French PO to choose where the French reserves go - stay around Paris [as was the case until just before the attack] or go towards Holland [the historical situation that was decided for political reasons ...

Historically the French had problems from top to bottom and everywhere in the middle in 1940. To pick one issue, they weren't as mobile as the handful of German divisions that broke thru at Sedan.

In this scenario run, as the French player I waited to see where this handful of 'elite' German ...

Isn't this why the 'Overextended' status was created? If I understand it, if this setting is used correctly then units such as those depicted above would decline in strength and evaporate after a few turns.

Wiki says berserkers (Old Norse: berserkir) were Scandinavian warriors who were said to have fought in a trance-like fury, 'furiously violent or out of control'.

Doesn't really appear that way when setting TOAW's PO to Berserker

Battling Zombies and other nasties in 2108.

Thanks, but keep in mind it's not my scenario, we were only making some adjustments to fix the turn frame change [and that did branch out to a few playability modifications along the way]. Bill and I, and including yourself and I'm sure a few others, would like to see more changes. We have discussed ...

Or will it just do some limited, uncoordinated attacks non-stop?

I think that is the general idea. I like working the PO and in the past have put efforts into other scenarios to create operational pauses and offensives, but not in this scenario. Maybe in the future I can have a go at it.

The revised scenario has been posted here:

This scenario was designed for the user to play the role of Chief of the OKW (Alfred Jodl, historically), who will -- in theory -- succeed in pursuading Hitler to pursue alternative strategies to regain the strategic initiative.

This is an update to a prior modification of an older scenario. See ...

Or give the Japanese units fording equipment and make the water hexes between the island and the mainland all shallow water?

That makes me think ... how about using a secondary Amphibious Icon?

Assigning Objective #1 to the target hex seems like a good idea, I’ll file it away for future scenarios.

If spending time trying things, might be worth it to remove supply from the embarkation area. The theory is that units out of supply will attempt to get back into supply by amphibious assault ...

Another situation:
In desperation to force the PO to make a D-Day invasion in a Normandy scenario, I did this:

Created 'assault' formations made up of units with the Guerilla secondary icon.
Ignore losses, Berzerker.
Schedule them to arrive around the beach areas on turn 1, with objectives at ...

I’m open to suggestions ...

Exclude the target hexes until Track 2 or 3 is triggered?

The guy that made the D21 map made a tile labeled 'Wilderness' to represent the boreal forest that Wiki reports covers most of Finland. I think he used the dune tile overlayed with the jungle graphic but colored darker. Or maybe it was dense forest colored jungle. This has nothing to do with swamp ...

Because 17.9.4 is describing Event Effects, so it's not necessary to add extra verbiage indicating that. But we could indicate the action of the event, such as 'The event can change the value, not add to or subtract from it'.

I don't think I have version #'s. I'll upload the latest here:

The term Sealift Capacity could also use some change or clarification. As Bob points out above, it is listed as Sea Transport Capacity in the Theater section of the Situation briefing. The term 'Sealift Capacity' is nowhere else in the manual, and the Editor Manual gives us this gem:

17.9.4. Event ...

In an effort to make it clearer, perhaps the following addition:

Land units must be Embarked on Ships [represented by Sea Transport Capacity] to move by sea.

Or does anyone have a different suggestion?

I read 11.4, but it doesn't help me ... Often hard to find answers in the manual.
Thanks for pointing this out. Probably the blue part is a poor choice of wording that is misleading.
