Re: New v1.04.07 Public Beta Now Available!

My mistake. I didn't realize both had multi update label. It is working OK now.

Re: New v1.04.07 Public Beta Now Available!

After I installed the new 1.04.07 beta the game opened up to 1.04.03 version. The dates on the scenarios are also December 2024. I think you have the wrong link. I used Mypage.

hasty attack support units

In a hasty attack, the game assigns support units, just like it does during a deliberate attack, to both attackers and defenders. The artillery support units frequently don't fire during a hasty attack or only fire a minimal number of shots. Even if they don't fire these support units suffer fatigue...

Re: New v1.04.03 Public Beta Now Available!

It could be random I just ran the road to lenningrad several times and now some of the units that didn't use artillery before are using it. My apologizes. The game seems to be working OK

Re: New v1.04.03 Public Beta Now Available!

No. For example in the 5 cases where two German divisions plus artillery support attacked and the artillery different fire the defender was in clear terrain in three instances, and once each in a city hex and a swamp hex. The one case with 2 German divisions attacking where artillery fired was again...

Re: New v1.04.03 Public Beta Now Available!

I just ran a series of hasty attacks in the 41 campaign game. I did not move any HQs or change any support unit allocations. With respect to 56ajax question all were high, usually 100 as most of the time I attacked from where the unit started the game, and in the 41 campaign game they are 100. The u...

Re: New v1.04.03 Public Beta Now Available!

It is not an issue of assigning support units. That seems to be working correctly. Nor is it an issue of moving headquarters. The problem is that during some hasty attack's, all of the artillery units for both the attacker and defender don't fire at all. In 4 out of 9 hasty attacks at the start of t...

Re: New v1.04.03 Public Beta Now Available!

I was just playing with the 43 campaign game. If I do a hasty attack with ground support off, then I get some artillery support. But if ground support is on, then the hasty attacks do not include any artillery.

Re: New v1.04.03 Public Beta Now Available!

I did not move the headquarters units. Please run the game and look at the detailed combat results for hasty attacks. Some artillery is embedded with the infantry divisions. My understanding is that they should always fire. Play German Human against the Soviet AI.

Re: New v1.04.03 Public Beta Now Available!

It is not a problem with re-assigning support units. I just tried an experiment with the road to Leningrad scenario. I did not change anything, just started the attack as Germans using your out of the box allocation of support units. In normal attacks both the German and AI controlled Soviet artille...

Re: New v1.04.03 Public Beta Now Available!

Just started a new 41 campaign game with the new public beta (1.04.03). I have noticed that in many (vast majority) of hasty attacks by the Germans on the first turn none of the artillery is firing, either by Soviet's or Germans. This is true in attacks on fortified regions and even divisions. Has a...

Re: New v1.03.09 Public Beta Now Available!

My question is similar to Mark's. In playing the Germans against the Soviet AI I have always started from the normal difficulty, but then set the moral for the soviets at 110, leaving all other settings at 100, producing a "custom" difficulty setting. My understanding is that this adds 10%...

understrength infantry division

I just opened up the May 44 campaign game as germans and noticed that 4 german infantry divisions seem to have unexplainably low CV. The divisions are: 93 ID 15 SS Latvian Grenadier Div 23 ID 329 ID All show a CV value between 1.56 and 1.95 at the start of the game. Similar ID in the same corps show...

Re: The saga of the 88th Infantry Division, a tale of grinding

To me the results seem to reflect the Soviets having an unlimited supply of fresh troops to attack the German 88th division. The division put up a valiant fight. In the 5 battles shown it (and the second division) inflicted losses totaling 5,552 men, 75 artillery, and 20 armored vehicles compare to ...

Re: PanzerGrenadier & Armoured Cards Combat element performance?

We have the same problem with the probability of hits with the cavalry squads. Their shots miss much more often than infantry. I think in a different thread I read that they were in the same class as mechanized infantry. Also the soft target value of AT-rifles (3 I believe) seem to make it almost im...

Re: 41 campaign issue posted in 1.03.03 thread

In the 41 campaign game using 1.03.03 the soviet air force (AI controlled) seems more active in air defense on the first turn than in earlier versions. Second, in terms of the bombing attacks on AFV the bombers appear to be targeting these types of units more extensively than previously. If the dist...
