Thanks for looking into this for me. I really appreciate the help. I wasn't going to start into the game seriously until after the patch anyway.

Did a full reinstall and have the same problem.

Method was:
Use Windows 11 uninstaller to remove EDBTR.
Manually delete the entire Matrix Games folder from C:
Download EDBTR from Matrix.
Download EDBTR patch from Matrix.
Download HFX from your link.
Install EDBTR.
Install EDBTR patch.
Copy over BTR ...

I just started a new campaign. I immediately checked Hope Boyd, and he's 0/0. I'm going to assume I have something corrupted and will try wiping out everything and installing from scratch when I get a chance.

As far as the second issue, the problem I have is that the "net" number is not indicating ...

145 Sq (Hurricane I) Is commanded by F/L Adrian Hope Boyd right from the start, even though there is an S/L in the roster. (At one point, Hope Boyd was the acting commander of the unit, so this may be intentional.) But the problem is that Mr. Boyd has a Leadership and Inspiration rating of 0/0 ...

The primary purpose of the Izumos is anti-submarine warfare. So they are just destroyers - with an unusually large ASW helicopter hangar :P


Unlike the Kuznetsov class "Heavy Aircraft-carrying Cruiser."

chinese destroyer has.... 112 (!!!) missile launchers.

talk about saturation.

not sure AEGIS (1980's tech in USN) can cope in Taiwan blockade/invasion/conflict scenario with this.

A US TF with aircraft carrier and escorts versus, lets be conservative here, 500+ missiles coming towards them ...

Do we have any idea yet on whether this patch is going to go official? Or are changes still being made?


There were a bunch of additional map data errors that were pointed out. I have been making those changes, which has taken some additional time. We are still making progress...


Thanks for ...

Is there a way to fly the F-35B or C without the gun pod? My understanding is that they only fly the gun if they feel they will need it. Mostly for ground support. (In fact, to find pictures of these aircraft with the gun, you almost have to search for that specifically on google.) In the game, it ...

Let's be honest here, guys. The graphics are significantly worse than CMBO was 25 years ago (it's got bushes! And grain fields!). With CMBB it's not even a contest.

It'd get murdered in Steam as-is. Realistically you need adequate terrain graphics and option to scale the models much bigger so ...

Hi, While i get the setting for 50% of range, the Meteor is slightly different in that it has an on board engine not a rocket motor so it can fly to 100% at full speed with less drop in speed/performance.


You can set up WRA on a per weapon and per target basis. So you can set the Meteor to fire ...

I think any replacement was sacrificed at the altar of the P-8. Osprey variant might be a good way to go...


The Osprey is and would be the worst platform for ASW and COD... it's FMC rates are well below 50% on average across all squadrons and mission types... The S-3's were cut for budget ...

I'm playing Red Tide Scenario 2. (Kobayashi Maru) I'm on the Steam version.

In this scenario the 2 main sides are the Soviet Union and NATO. Player is Soviets. At the start, the main sides are unfriendly, but not hostile to each other. The Soviets are expected to launch a surprise attack at 1200z ...

Awesome. Thanks for looking into it!

Scenario is Pebble Island Raid. I have 4 SAS units and 1 SBS unit that are supposed to attack an airfield. All units are equipped with high explosives (C4) among other weapons. First off, the high explosives have a range of 8nm, which doesn't seem right. But if I use them, the using unit dies as ...

I should have mentioned that too. I'm using a utility that keeps my mouse locked to the main monitor when I play RtW now.

The problem with the earlier Mark X system was that it would respond to all attempted interrogations on the correct frequency. It had no way of knowing if the interrogator was friendly. This meant that an enemy, even if they didn't know the code, could use the IFF frequency to broadcast a wide ...

Just to confirm, I had this happen in Falklands 6 (Wolf Pack). Harriers refused to leave cruising altitude to attack NOE Pucaras. They would nose down for a moment, then pop right back up. Workaround to change attack altitude to 1000 feet via the dropdowns was successful.

All of my ships and subs always show "rudder straight ahead." Even during a hard turn.

Is my installation faulty? Or is this a program bug?

I can provide a save if requested. It's happening in every scenario.

On a related note, why do I care where the rudders are anyway? Is there some tactical ...

1.) The problem with calling someone to identify themselves is that a civilian and an enemy will both give you the same answer.

2.) IFF at the time would have been either the Mark X or Mark XII system. Mark XII started to get introduced in the 70s. I have no idea when the Royal Navy converted. I ...
