<t> Imagine this. You have 300 admin points. You select an urban hex in the Soviet Rear. Press a macro button. And the hex and those around it is populated with 27 pathetic little rifle divisions... which you later turn into 9 fearsome rifle corps which with a battle cry of "Make vodka like they ...

<t> Lets pretend I am the Soviet player playing the Barbarossa campaign. My thin commie line down the Dvina/Dnepr just got brutalized by a bunch of nazis. I have 400 admin points. I want to create some divisions. Why the bloody hell do I have to sit for 30 minutes finding the hex, pressing Shift-B ...

Yep. That works. Thank you very much!

MANUAL UPDATE: If you want to move units in the Scenario Editor make sure that in the main game options:
1. Both players are a set to human
2. All FOW options are deselected.

Best,

<t> Yes. Just tried that. Still cant move units around the map.<br/>
<br/>
This is what I do:<br/>
<br/>
1. Set both players to human.<br/>
2. Go to Editor<br/>
3. Load Scenario: 1941-1945 v2600<br/>
4. Rename it 1941-1945 Soviet Defensive<br/>
5. Save scenario<br/>
6. Go to Map - press W ...

<t> Thanks for your response. This is the problem.<br/>
<br/>
1. Both players set to human.<br/>
2. I open editor and load 1941-1945 v2600 scenario.<br/>
3. I go to edit screen and rename scenario as new one.<br/>
4. I go to the map, press w and try to move Soviet units by selecting them and ...

<t> Guys - I feel like there is probably a simple answer here but I cant find it.<br/>
<br/>
I want to create a scenario Barbarossa - Soviet Defensive Deployment i.e. to test the hypothesis that if the Soviets were not in the midst of a forward deployment for an attack in July/August ...

<t> <br/>
With regards to sources. Meltyukhov - Stalin's Missed Chance (&#1059;&#1087;&#1091;&#1097;&#1077;&#1085;&#1085;&#1099;&#1081; &#1096;&#1072;&#1085;&#1089; &#1057;&#1090;&#1072;&#1083;&#1080;&#1085;&#1072;), Mark Solonin (he has numerous books on this) - a lot of literature is online - for ...

<t> I am sorry, but I am going to have to strongly disagree with you there. What you have to appreciate is that the "myth" of a victim i.e. an innocent party attacked "treacherously" by the Nazi beast lies at the heart of the propaganda image that USSR cultivated for itself (including via the ...

Guys - I am Russian by birth, a military historian by education but not profession. This subject of Soviet attack in summer of 1941 has fascinated me ever since Victor Suvorov published his Icebreaker in Russia in early 1990s. <br/>
<br/>
First a few words ...

<t> Eric - thank you.<br/>
<br/>
The problem with the second approach seems that you have to change the OB from the original 1941 which seems a PITA to do. What I was seeking was essentially a toggle of (allow formation of rifle corps and tank corps) and that the first approach solves that.<br ...

<t> Gents - thank you for the information. <br/>
<br/>
Ericv - am I right in that you were using cheatengine in order to access that memory location during the scenario? I am struggling a little to do that. That memory location shows zeros and the search for the string also reveals nothing.<br ...

<t> <br/>
Does anybody know of a way of editing the date on which Rifle Corps maybe formed. To me, this is one of the key organizational variables in the game for the Soviet side - in essence ability to muster and concetrate strength into more powerful formations. If for example that could be done ...

<t> <br/>
Hi all,<br/>
<br/>
For not especially serious scenario designers (I for example merely want to test our Barbarossa with the Soviet "defensive" deployment further back at the "old 1939" border). All I really need to do for that is:<br/>
<br/>
1. A move units further east on the map ...

<t> <br/>
Thanks for that. It really is incredible how involved this "game" is. I really think it should rebrand itself. This is not a game. Is FSX a game? Possibly. Is Steel Beasts Pro a game? Even less so than FSX likely. Oh never mind. <br/>
<br/>
Coming back to the question. And thank you ...

<t> <br/>
Hi - I am sure there is a reason for this which I cannot figure out. If I take a season or two off from fighting, every turn my Soviets take 40-50k of casualties even though no combat had taken place that turn or previous turn? With that alone, over 200 turns of a full game the Soviets ...

Thanks guys for your responses. Shouldnt the Germans then be suffering something similiar? I am not seeing that if I open up the losses screen prior to ending my turn. It would be a bit odd if the Soviets had an attrition penalty and the Germans didnt.

<t> <br/>
Hi all,<br/>
<br/>
I am playing the full 41-45 campaign as the Soviets. Has anybody come across the phenomenon whereby the Soviets suffer 50,000 losses (through manpower I believe) even when no combat has taken place during the German turn? 50k every time. While Zhukov used to say to ...
