RE: RIP John Tiller

<r> <br/>
Very sad to hear of John Tiller's passing. As a child I loved chess. After chess came Avalon Hill and with computers as an adult came Tiller's Battlegrounds with Waterloo, Civil War and Bulge. Campaign Series is the pinnacle in my mind at least!<br/>
<br/>
May John Tiller fare well on ...

RE: HBO Valley of Tears series

I've heard of it. Looks interesting.

I've got a friend over in Haifa who was a medic during the Yom Kippur War.

I'll have to check it out!

RE: IS the Cold War Mod that is compatible with 2.01?

While we await the Cold War stand alone game, the link Oberst Klink posted will provide you with the excellent CW Europe mod. It's pre-2.02 but works with Win10.

RE: Looking for a West Front Scenario

<t> It looks as if that scenario has been removed from The Blitz site. It's an old scenario and I located an earlier version from my 1.04 install. <br/>

Try this version in your game. I've been able to play scenarios from older versions of the game. Sometimes you have to open them directly ...

<t> I looked through my WF files and found the scenario you are looking for. I'm not sure if it was a stock scenario or not but it works in my JTCS WF 2.02 install.<br/>

RE: Old WF Scenarios

Thanks Again for posting these!

I tested most of them on JTCS 2.02 and they work for me. I've seen some behave differently on different systems, installs etc.

Stay Safe!

RE: were are the rail guns and mortars?

<t> The K5 280mm railroad gun is available in West Front from 01/1930 to 12/1953 for the Germans.<br/>
<br/>
For whatever reason that gun is not part of East Front. There are Flak trains and Panzer trains etc. but no railroad guns. <br/>

RE: Old EF Scenarios

Cool!

Just downloaded all including RS and WF and will test them out.

It looks like a lot of these came from the great old Wargamer download section which sadly has been shut down.

There are some here I've been looking for!

Thanks!

RE: Front end file

If you haven't been playing JTCS 2.02, you are in for a great experience.

You can control the animation speed of both sides with a variable slider for instance.

I always disliked the restriction of the two-speed option: fast or slooow.

A-1 Skyraider

While playing a "what if scenario" I made up with post 1945 air support, I encountered a bitmap error.

It seems the A-1 Skyraider (U.S.) was missing SP10525 so I made one and it fixed the problem for my version of the game (2.02).

Here it is if you need it.

These units require intensive work to display properly. Literally one pixel out of place can make or break the correct angle of a turret or superstructure. <br/>

My favorite uncle served in Patton's Fourth Armored from 1944-45.

When I first got the game I played all the Fourth Armored scenarios first!

RE: Lag

Whenever I play, if possible, I disconnect from the internet and shut down all anti-virus, anti-malware programs etc.

I find that helps to keep the game flowing smoothly on my laptop.
