<t> LOL - last one, I promise!<br/>

3 x massed Axis Batts. 1000+ men including 110 AT rifle squads, 79xPanthers (Mk V's), 79 Pz IV's etc, etc against only 42xDAC's and 8xAEC's.......... losses:<br/>
<br/>
5x Panthers and 6x Pz IV's knocked out - to the Allied 3x DAC's and 2x AEC's .... (5 ...

<r> Ha ha ... well thanks for all the interesting answers! I'm not going to string this out anymore, enough has been said - <I><s>[i]</s>except<e>[/i]</e></I> that I just attacked the aforementioned recce unit with my 2nd SS Tiger formation plus 4 x batteries of Art. at (ironically) Villiers Bocage ...

<t> So.... going back to one of my original questions - about the Recce units. I said before that the AI was losing a number of Tigers and heavy kit to my Brit Recce unit. <br/>
I am now playing Axis - and guess what - my SS Batts. are attacking a formation of Brit. Recce. Daimlers, a couple of AEC ...

<t> Following on with these quickies....<br/>
<br/>
9. Does the terrain affect different units abilities to attack/defend? ie do armoured units get penalties in forests and towns? <br/>
<br/>
10. How do I assign art. to use opportunity fire - that is, fire automatically on enemy as he moves - I ...

<r> <B><s>[b]</s>8. How does the Inventory and Replacements window work? <e>[/b]</e></B><br/>
<br/>
Not sure I understand...<br/>
<br/>
<B><s>[b]</s>On Hand<e>[/b]</e></B>: I guess the units that are in play?<br/>
<B><s>[b]</s>Rate<e>[/b]</e></B>: ...? replenishment rate per turn?<br/>

<t> No artillery support. <br/>
And the terrain was bocage - inevitably. <br/>
<br/>
Yes, the AEC's do have a HEAT AT weapon, later models (around the time of D-Day) had the 75mm which could certainly penetrate a Tiger's side and rear. And I guess with over 120 armoured cars to distract the ...

No aircraft in the AAR - I checked...

<r> So....... can you explain this one?<br/>
<br/>
Still on the Overlord campaign - and an enemy <U><s>[u]</s>SS unit<e>[/u]</e></U> comprising of:<br/>
12 x Tigers<br/>
2 x 25mm AA guns<br/>
1 x smg squad<br/>
1 x eng squad <br/>

...attacked my 11th Hussars recce unit:<br/>
4 x 20 ...

<t> And as for the whole div re-orging - I guess if you look at the 7th Armoured, Desert Rats, at Villers Bocage - the whole division was paralyzed by only Wittmann and half a dozen Tigers and Mk IVs, even though Wittmann only took out a dozen or more tanks and the same number of transport, the ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Welcome to TOAW by the way. There's lots of friendly people that would be more than happy to answer questions....me for one.<br/>
So keep those questions coming. That's how you learn. That and lots of practice. You may enjoy reading some AAR's. Some of the<br/>
better ones ...

<r> Thanks for replies.<br/>

1. Not sure about permanence of losses - I was just amazed at the amount of Mk 9 Spitfires and Mosquitoes etc. that I am losing to me110s, a few MG42s on the ground and a flak or two. Not sure if these losses are accurate to real raids... (?)<br/>

<t> Hi, I am new to the game, and so far I like it very much. That said, I am an old hand at wargaming, both virtual and tabletop. <br/>
I am therefore a little fussy about reality within the games I play and thus have a couple of questions... <br/>
<br/>
1. How is combat engine modeled to such ...
