Re: Making TOAW look like the (better) earlierr versions

In short - yes. TOAW is highly modifiable visually. (And fairly simple once you understand how).

Supply Source in an Exclusion Zone

Does placing a supply source in an exclusion zone still emanate supply and protect it from being entered/eliminated by the opposing Force, or does it prevent the flow of supply?

changing Proficiency

Lets say someone made an oversight and most of the Units have a Proficiency of 33 because they weren't paying attention when they entered the 300 or so units...and now they want to make most all of them an 80 Proficiency...

Re: Nordlicht 1942 AAR Snefens vs. Telumar

Sneffens - the scenario is stunning work. Both of you - the reporting is fantastic. I check in most days.

The troop density, even in the middle of nowhere, really highlights the scale of the whole five years of conflict.

Re: Hierarchy Module Document

I like "% of Authorization". It stamps a sense of history and reality to the situation. But, the term gets a bit sloppy or meaningless as one goes back in time or with guerilla forces.

Plus, all these years of research I did on Isengard Orc TOEs will then be for naught. Books will be thrown if the ...

Re: Hierarchy Module Document

Here's an argument against presenting such precision;

...Instead you need to get a feel for what your force is capable of and go with your gut. That's what a real commander does.

Creating a new Formation between two existing Formations

I'm still early enough that nothing is deployed and I want to create a new Formation between two existing Formations.

Every time I try it, the pasted formation becomes part of the Formation below it.

What series of keystrokes am I missing?

As shown in the screen shot, this scenario will be played above the nonplayable line.
