<r> Below is a December 2020 SOUTHERN STORM REVEAL INTERVIEW with Rob Crandall. IIRC this same interview is posted somewhere else in this forum. Lots of interesting stuff. Some things I noted in the video occurred at the below times. <br/>

A link to The Strategy Wargamer's December 2020 video is below.

<r> From the same December 2020 video by The Strategy Wargamer it seems Southern Storm may have: <br/>
Decoy units & civilians.<br/>
Short & long bridge teams. Mine clearing and mine laying teams. General engineers. <br/>
SOP overrides for orders.<br/>
Stance for units. Example - Standoff range ...

<r> I was digging around trying to find information about Southern Storm. I found a video by The Strategy Wargamer from December 2020. The video showed several interesting things about the game. Below is a screenshot from the video that shows an engineer unit. The video the screenshot was taken from ...

<t> What is the best way to detect enemy minefields and obstacle belts? I generally find them when a unit enters a hexagon and takes casualties / must stop to clear. If I understand the manual I think this might be the only way to find them? However, I just had a recon unit enter a hexagon and ...

Thanks for the information. I'm looking forward to Southern Storm.

<t> Okay thanks, good information. I found one NTC scenario so far. Iron Horse 2. <br/>
<br/>
I also discovered that I already had the NTC central corridor map. However when I previously loaded the map it looked so different from the other maps I've played on I thought it was not a "playable" map ...

<t> I've found some references in the forum about the US National Training Center (NTC). I even found an NTC map. However I have not been able to find a NTC scenario. Were any NTC scenarios created and if so where would I find them? <br/>
<br/>
Also, I now have an NTC map of the Central Corridor ...

<t> Okay thanks. <br/>
<br/>
I'm really looking forward to FC Southern Storm. Red Storm / Germany Reforged is already a great game with the OODA loop, limited orders, counter battery fire, the importance of HQs, etc. With the improvements announced for Southern Storm it will be even more realistic ...

Good information. Thank you.

<t> In the game a US M109A2 155mm howitzer can drop smoke on up to three hexagons (5min apart). I've seen the smoke last for different amounts of time in the three hexagons. Example from current game: Hex#1 30 minutes, Hex#2 36 minutes and Hex#3 66 minutes. Any tips on using smoke screens and maybe ...

There are two movement choices for helicopters, deliberate and hasty. I think I understand how these movement types work for ground units. Not so sure about helicopters. What is the preferred movement type for helicopters?

Thank you.

Interesting AAR. Thanks.

<t> When you dismount troops from a vehicle you are given a range of numbers to choose from. My understanding is if you choose a positive number (say two) the troops will disembark two hexes (1000 meters) before the destination hex. If you choose zero the troops will disembark on the destination hex ...

<r> Very well done video for anybody interested in Combat Mission Black Sea.<br/>
