<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: nikolas93TS<br/>
Currently auto-cannons in-game are pathetic against tanks (although lucky shoots of more powerful cannons can still disable them in certain cases, and in actual combat above situations are probably less common) but we are planning a more ...

RE: Thoughts on the new "pull" system in logistics

<t> I can't imagine why anyone would be against automating this.<br/>
<br/>
There are no interesting decisions here. Either your LP allocation is optimal, or it is suboptimal. <br/>

Can someone please fill me in on what options traffic-sign micromanagement added to the game and why I would ...

<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>About the only other thing people seem to miss is that hex assets (like mines) need 100 LP per level per turn to operate at full capacity. This is what traffic signs are for, limiting the number of trucks that go down a side road to a mine. But Vic is adding a "pull ...

By reassignable do you mean that BPs could be shared between helicopter flights?


Also, allow us to move BPs during the DEPLOYMENT setup please.

RE: Aircraft and Scenario Size

<t> Yep, I've noticed all of those things. <br/>

You can't check LOS outside the map area, but like I said, it might be a reasonable approximation of reality to just check LOS to the map edge. Especially if in return the aircraft can be fired upon in their approach to the AO, or retaliation ...

RE: My review

<t> Isn't there a box you can tick that makes the artillery fire as soon as it is adjusted?<br/>

And same for on-map artillery. You just hit the FFE button while they are still adjusting and they will start firing as soon as they can, no further input needed.<br/>

RE: Aircraft and Scenario Size

<t> Some additional notes:<br/>
<br/>
1. This only applies to fixed-wing aircraft. Helicopters don't have this problem as they aren't zooming in and out of the AO at high speeds.<br/>
<br/>
2. Since we're only dealing with fixed-wing aircraft, it might be a fair abstraction to ignore terrain ...

Aircraft and Scenario Size

Someone pointed out that the aircraft abort behavior might be dependent on the scenario size. Especially on smaller scenarios, it can make a huge difference to how AA perform when aircraft show up and start being ...

weak point hit probability should be done in proportion regarding the armor of the tank... IE leopards having the smallest weakpoint hitrate (only the turret ring) followed by the T series (cleavage and turret cheeks and then the M1 (mantlet ...

<t> That's how I thought about it too when I read that part of the manual... very much like the "tickets" in BF1942.<br/>

Basically it's like dynamic counter that slows down if you hold objectives (??? don't know the details though) and also has time removed if you take losses.<br/>

RE: SOP: Seek Cover

<t> I think this is a good idea, especially when infantry is under fire from enemies they can't see. Definitely don't want it triggering when the unit is on the move (could make assaults uncoordinated), and triggering while the unit is engaging a target could break line of sight, so both ...
