The devs know, and they have a fix for the next update.

Devs, maybe have a pinned comment on this one?
Known bugs, or something like that.

Two more wishes for the list, both PBEM related.

1) Saving your previous options to any new challenges. I play Grognard exclusively, and it's annoying to have to reset all the options for every game. Minor issue, just a QoL thing.

2) Renaming the 'Challenger' side to either My side, or Enemy side ...

I'm by no means an expert, but here's what I do.

1) Move it every command cycle, without fail. There are no penalties to command for being in motion (that I know of), so keep in motion. They can't hit you if you're not there. :)

Note though, that most MGRS coordinates you read, doesn't state the zone (it's usually implied).
Most of Germany is in zone 32U, and if you need another zone, try this:

More or less just what the title says.
My PBEM++ game has apparently ended, but I can't review it. All I get is an error-message.
So I have no idea whether I won or not.....Probably the latter, but I'd like to make sure. :D
Attached log.

EDIT: Added a few screenshots, just in case.

And since a picture is worth the proverbial 1,000 words, here's my initial set-up.

Hmmm, there are three independent sournd volume controls: ambient background, music on intro and extro, and then moving/firing sounds. I presume it is the latter or is it? I'm not seeing a connection in code yet so I need to refine just what I am searching for.

Thanks, Rob

Don't try to hold the VP locations. This goes for every scenario as the defender.
A VP location that you already hold has no value as a defensive point.
But it does mean the enemy HAS to take that point. With me so far?

So if you know the enemy has to go into that hex, why place troops there?
It's ...

Not sure whether this is caused by the game, or if it's one of Windows delightful 'features', but....

Every time I load a PBEM++ game, the sound is fine during the replay of the enemy turn, but once I start running my own turn before sending it back, the sound gets cranked to oh-my-god-this-is-loud ...

I'm game (as it were).
Already got a public challenge up on the servers (Autobahn too far), but if you prefer something else post a challenge, and I'll give it a whirl.
I'll play either side, only thing I ask is that we avoid some of the more massive scenarios.

Here are the Southern Storm maps, this time rendered without the 1km square grid, and with a black hex grid baked in.

One other thing to keep in mind, especially as the NATO player, is that you are usually far better off not trying to defend objective hexes in the first place.
As others have noted, it is very difficult to withdraw from an all-out attack.
So don't stand in the direct path of the enemy. Find open ...

<r> It's not as bad as all that, certainly not any worse than WitE (or WitP:AE which in my opinion isn't a game but a second job).<br/>

Granted, the AGE engine takes some getting used to, and there's a lot going on under the hood but you don't need all the information in order to play well ...
