RE: 2D zoom-in view?

How about a variable zoom feature for 2d and 3d?

RE: MG34 vs. MG42

<r> At the risk of necroposting, I have some additional comments to add to the discussion of MG34 vs MG42.<br/>
<br/>
I highly recommend the book &#8220;MG34-MG42 German Universal Machineguns&#8221; by Folke Myrvang. Mr Myrvang has done a very nice job researching the MG34 and MG42; he also has ...

RE: More challenges with leaders amphibious landings etc.

Jason,

Also, I am certain that an LVT-4 could carry a jeep or light light artillery piece.

An LVT-4 should also have a higher defense than a Higgins boat (LCVP)!

RE: More challenges with leaders amphibious landings etc.

Jason,

The LCV is not an amphibious vehicle; nor does not address the host of other issues I cited.

More challenges with leaders amphibious landings etc.

<t> This may fall in the category of &#8220;not worth fixing&#8221;, but I am catching the devil with respect to leaders. Leaders add a lot of enjoyment to the game, but I find the whole way leaders are handled to be highly frustrating.<br/>

RE: MG34 vs. MG42

<t> My opinion is that the there is no effective difference in *game terms* between the MG34 and MG42. Don't get me wrong, the MG42/MG3 is a fantastic weapon and I think the Bundeswehr is crazy to retire it from service; but there is a point of diminishing returns in terms of higher rates of fire ...

RE: Panzerbefehlswagen III - Command tank

Actually, there was a PzBefWg IV which retained the main gun, and other command vehicles (variants of earlier panzers, SPW 250s etc). There was an unsolicited proposal for a command variant of the Pz V.

I had played with .obx files in v1.02, but thought this was not an option in v1.03 on; apart from bugging Mr Petho...

I want the new game tweaks and my mods too!
