RE: Campaign Series EFIII, WFII and Pacific Front USER WISH LIST

<t> I've been away from the JTCS games for many years now, busy putting kids through college, and am circling back! That's what's awesome, it's timeless.<br/>
I just saw this thread and hope it's still active cause I really would like a couple of things changed. It made my day!!!!<br/>

RE: Did they make Assault harder?

<t> I prefer the new assault rules except it might need a little more tweaking. As mentioned, one really has to pound down the strengths of platoons significantly before an assault is successful, perhaps unrealistically so. I had my 4 full strength infantry platoons fended off by a single strength ...

I think tanks go low-on-supply sooner because they tend to stray farther from their battalion headquarters. Conversely, tank battalion HQ have a harder time keeping up. Battalion HQ are easy kills and expensive losses.<br/>

RE: MCS User WISHLIST

<t> I don't know if these were mentioned, if so I'll say it again.<br/>
I was thinking about visibility of units in open terain. In real life a tank may move around a corner and have a full field in view. At that time he would see any enemy within his sight. In the game when a unit moves into an ...

RE: Tactical Advice Requested

Couldn't you just up the value of the obj's? I played this scenario twice with two attack paths and couldn't even come out with a minor loss. The allies took heavy casualties both times.

RE: WEST FRONT update 2010-2011

<t> Consider the alternative, no support, updates, bug fixes or scenarios and the game left to die on the vine. Played by people using old computers running Win98 until they memorize each and every scenario. Hmmm, I'll take the bugs any day as long as they're being worked on. That's why I jumped ...

RE: Assault rule-on-off switch???????????????

<t> So, is it true Jason? Will there be an on/off switch? And, did you make changes in the 1.03 assault rules as a compromise as well? If the tweak was implemented I would always use the 1.03 assault rules, I just make sure I have overwhelming force. I hope you didn't just decide to leave it as is ...

Fast replays

I hope I'm not rehashing this but my opponent's replay flashes by too fast to make it out. I need replays to help with strategy.
I also have the slow options selected. Am I doing something wrong?

Can't find bte file

<t> Hi all,<br/>
OK I know I've been out of it for a while, in more ways than one, but I loaded JTCS for the first time then got all patched up with 1.03 and tried a PBEM. I can't find my *.bte file that I saved in any of the WF, EF, RS directories. A search turns up a shortcut. Am I so stupid or ...

RE: Assault rule changes

<r> I agree with TJD,<br/>
Changing such a fundamental rule like assault has repercussions that could render existing scenarios unplayable, change balances, etc. Unless the scenario was written and tested with the new changes it should remain an 'option only' in older scenarios. A single problem ...
