RE: Talonsoft VS MCS: Indirect Artillery Fire

I also only play DCGs, and I get hit pretty hard, even against polish mortars, and my above mentioned example, was with full advantage, 12 tanks lost to artillery, FULL ADVANTAGE, thats ridiculous, my infantry didnt get hit that bad.

RE: Army group center

I liked it. thought it was quite hilarious, but a lot of people are genuinely angry and dont have time for sarcasm. Not if only you could replicate this in a scenario, that would be awesome.

RE: Talonsoft VS MCS: Indirect Artillery Fire

<t> I have had the same problems with Arty fire falling on moving tanks, and I try to vary it between turns, i.e. one turn I will move 1-2 hexes away, next turn I will shoot once and move 3-5 hexes, and sometimes I dont move to test their ridiculous aim, and here are my figures for my last DCG ...

RE: 1.03 UPDATE

<t> I agree that the patch is amazing, I love the variable visibility and dont care what others say, I still havent formed an opinion about the artillery, and I was never much of an assaulter anyway.&nbsp;Everything looks great, this may have been there before, but I just noticed the bits of foliage ...

RE: I am Still getting Obliterated by Indirect fire

<t> okay, I just played a DCG game for testing purposes, as Germany against Poland, regiment size, advantage set all the way for the Axis, and by turn 10, had lost 11 SP of tanks, half of which were Pz III and IVs, which is ridiculous given that I was moving my tanks each turn as to avoid the Arty ...

Number of Saves Exceeds Two?

I get this message displayed occasionally when I play DCGs, what does it mean and does it have any bearing on anything.

Also, the German 128 mm AA gun in EF requires no APs to load unload

RE: Campaign Game Setup

I always wondered why it doesnt give you an OOB dialog like the one used to created scenarios. Then at least you could put units on the map in groups.

RE: Talonsoft VS MCS: Indirect Artillery Fire

<t> Well, maybe you have the worst luck of anyone ever to play this game, it is possible, however extremely unlikely, that one could play the game without ever losing any SP, soft or hard, over the course of the entire game, and also equally likely that every shot, an entire platoon is destroyed. I ...

Weird Awesome Bug

<t> I just started a Storm on the Reich DCG, regiment size, as the germans. After setting up what I thought was all of my units, I began the first mission, and discoved that my Corps HQ was on the russian side of the map. Then the russians moved a T-34/85 away from it (was 1 hex away, now two hexes ...

Greatest Medal Accomplishments

<t> I was just wondering how many out there have gotten the highest medals possible, for instance, for the first time, I got the Knights Cross with oak leaves and swords, which was quite awesome, my greatest game ever. I was of course the germans, playing the Citadel and Beyond Campaign commanding a ...

RE: Spearhead in the Ardennes DCG error

<t> It crashes as soon as I try to begin next mission the first time, as in playing the first scenario. I just pops up that wf.exe has stopped working. I am also running vista on a Dell E1505 notebook. If I try to play it after restarting west front, the mission loads, but says error reading either ...

Spearhead in the Ardennes DCG error

I dont know if anyone else has had this problem, but about 80% of the time I try to start this campaign, it causes the game to stop working and crash, regardless of what nation, size, type of unit, and unit. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to this. Is there anything I can do?

ohh, no, that isn't my point, I was the British, my point was that my expected reinforcements, at 100% certainty for turn 1, had not arrived yet.

Reinforcement Error

I was playing the Afrikakorps DCG and at turn four, I checked my scheduled reinforcements, and to my surprise, listed was 25 pounder field guns, expected on turn 1, at 100% certainty. Has anyone else experienced this error?

RE: Excellent Suggestion for the Next Patch

I agree this would be great, I think that if you click the mouse wheel, it will change between move and fire mode, nice quick way without keeping my finger on the control key all game.

RE: Concealment Question

Sorry for all the questions, but I got another one, does a unit which is smoked, disrupted, and low on ammo have its attack factor reduced to 1/8th of its normal attack value?

Different Question

Do the smaller AT guns (50mm or less) stay concealed against the AI as well, cause I was just Arty-ed on my first turn, without even shooting my AT gun?
