Re: Next patch

Patch is out. I had to manually download. I like the graphic changes/colors to the buildings and the more visible fences. I have not had a chance to look at all upgrades or the new Finish units. Additions to an already great wargame! Thanks.

Re: Scenario: "Twin Bridges Defense"

I had to tweak the scenario a few times, specifically in regards to force number and strength, to try and achieve play balance. In the end, I found that if you use what I consider “good tactics”, it can be a fairly “easy” win, but I enjoyed the destruction :) so I left it alone. Also, I found that ...

Re: How to deal with aircraft?

My AA units (guns or missles) have had kills, but it seems rare. Also, my planes don't seem to drop accurate ordinance (although the AI does a lot better at killing my units). I understand there may be some balance involved (?). I haven't tried to mess with any adjustments to unit abilities or ...

Info

All,

Just for info, I created a good portion of these scenarios during the beta process, to test and learn the game and editor. I have had to play them and adjust for balance, etc. Most of them I've both won and lost, depending on how I played, how aggressive I moved forces, timing, etc. I also ...

The Russians are racing to beat our forces for control of the Bridge at the small town of Heidekamp. Friendly civilians have not had time to evacuate and are likely huddled in their houses. American forces are close and are going to take this bridge! Be aware, the on-scene commander has already ...

Ok. I sorta solve the problem I mentioned in this post by compressing the folder to a .zip file and uploading it. Is that the only way to do it?

Can we upload scenarios here or is just and information area?

I've created several scenarios and I attempted to upload one here today, in a "new topic" such as the one I'm typing in now.

Scenarios appear to consist of two files: One appears to be an ".xml" file and I'm not sure what the other file is, but possibly the "computer language file"(?) for the ...

Re: Please Release on Steam

Barley - I'm not sure where your comments come from, and I'm assuming they are your "true feelings", which is unfortunate. In my opinion, none of what you said is accurate as to what this game does.

Does it have graphics such as, lets say "Warno" or a similar game (which I returned)? No. However ...

Re: Mission editor unit placements

You have the option, at least on a "Defence" mission, to have units "Dig in" on the final screen (Objectives).

Re: Mission editor unit placements

I did try to lock them after placing units and they still reset. When I placed as formations, and didn't rearrange the single units (for better cover, etc.), it appears the formation remains anchored where it was set (I assume based on the leader, although I didn't pay attention to that).

Mission editor unit placements

I understand that when editing a mission, the manual states:
"Currently individual unit placement is not saved, other than for pillboxes. Formation waypoints and their SOPs and
most other settings are saved in the scenario data."
I'm hoping that indicates that work may be on the horizon to allow ...

A couple of questions re maps

First, I'm really liking this game! You've done a great job converting AB into what is essentially a new dynamic and graphics, with the same quality tactical gameplay (and even better!).

A couple of questions:
1. Is there a way for scenario editors to type in names on the map - for instance, if I ...

RE: Next Patch?

I like the new counters, other than the fact that they do not look "3D" enough. It would be nice if more shadowing were added to the sides of the counters. until then, i'll probably stick with the "old" ones.. They look 3D.

Thanks for the work with this game though!

Even rolls?

<t> A question, which I hope you'd feel ok answering if it is the case: Are the rolls and chances for kill or hit rolls the same for the AI as for the human player? The first couple of games it seemed ok, but now it just seems the AI hits me a heck of a lot more than I hit it. I am playing on the ...

<r> I do not like Eastern Front games, where the two forces are limited to Germans and Russians. For some reason, this seems to be a first choice for some developers. There must be a reason, and yes, I know tank battles were severe on this front. <br/>

Regardless of that, I jumped in on the ...
