<r> Overall I like the game, but I can safely conclude the number one issue is time per scenario. Please continue to add options and features that speed up the game. The artillery animation is a huge one. Maybe also let some of the attack animations and kill text "linger" while still allowing quick ...

<t> Is this possible? After 14 hours with the game I have everything running nearly as fast as possible, but I still spend a lot of my time watching the artillery animation play out. I can disable the kill animation (which is the best part) but not the initial bombs falling. <br/>
<br/>
If it's ...

<t> I thought I remember reading a post on here about how best to deal with Soviet tanks in terms of ranges. What are the general rules, aside from good cover and surprise? Do I want my NATO tanks to be at short range or long range? Always screening and moving? Aside from artillery's usual ...

<t> I had some trouble with this mission using the Limited Staff rule until I set up killzones on either side of the city. All the infantry huddled around the NE bridge in Hameln (all bridges blown of course) and the tanks held position in the forest hills south of Holtensen.<br/>
<br/>
The ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>The scenarios are not balanced for limited orders. They are balanced for unlimited orders. I'm not sure if some of them can be beaten with limited orders or not.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
Oh my. I've been playing each scenario blind with limited orders. To be honest, I often ...

Please put this in the manual.

I also find it unhelpful to be told to go read books on Cold War strategy and tactics (although I often do it anyway out of interest). I'm not commanding a real brigade in the Cold War, I'm playing a video game and the game is a system of rules ...

<t> Definitely single player. New game start vs. save game reload is a good question. I want to say it was the former. In any case, I completely went through the orders phase then hit the start button before the sequence of events began.<br/>

After I killed the process and restarted, I ...

I think the 'problem' here is that games like this and Command attract the sort of people who have knowledge of the time frame and systems in that period.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
This is the problem with wargames in general. Almost always ...

<t> The second version of the scenario is the one you should play as Soviets. In that one, all the bridges are magically blown before the scenario begins!<br/>
<br/>
If anyone has any NATO tips for this with the new aggressive AI, I'm very curious. I feel like there might be a learning experience ...

It also appears that after I click pause/restart a few times, the FPRS application enters an unstable state. For example, I can click on all the window tabs, but the map zoom level won't change, I can't scroll it, etc.

Because the very essence of limited orders is to give you the stress factor of having to give a set of orders under duress.

It's not my game, so I can only tell you how I interpret the essence of that option: simulating ...

<t> This has happened twice now. I pause the turn resolution to take a closer look at something. When I hit restart, nothing appears to happen. If I click pause and restart a few more times, I sometimes see additional entries in the Tactical Ops Center Diary. Then occasionally the time increments by ...

<r> I'm in danger of wearing a hole in my head from scratching it so much...<br/>

IMHO There should be an option to select whether undo is allowed or not and this should be enforced with ironman<br/>
in order to be relevant.<br/>

Or an easier ...

I will purchase the game immediately if a new "beta" patch shows up on your website. Just saying.

BTW, the way you phrased your original post is a little odd. I sincerely hope Matrix isn't holding the deployment of a videogame patch to slot it into a product release schedule.

I hope they can get it out the door before 2015.

Just waiting on the final update. I hope Matrix doesn't hold onto it too long.

I've been reading Red Army this weekend in anticipation.

Would it help if I said I'm going to order this game as soon as 2.06 is done?

I really enjoyed my time with the game. I might pick up an expansion, but my gaming time is fading fast.
