Re: Guided Missile Cruiser Moskva

The fact that the FC radar for the S-300F is in its standby position and the Osa-M launchers are retracted in their wells isn't evidence that the Moskva wasn't even aware of being under attack? Moreover, this should also prove that the ship defenses weren't actually "distracted" by a drone ...

M60A3 minor bug

The M60A3 tank platoons show the same attack/range table of the M60A2 ones, implying it has the same armament of the "Starship" (i.e. the 152mm gun/launcher). As you know, it had the same 105mm gun of the M60A1.

RE: What's the Added Value of Having CPP in the Game?

<br/>
As the OP said, staff work, preparation, moving to assembly areas, issuing orders, fireplans, schedules, timetables, etc. <br/>

This is what CPP, IMHO, are ...

well realistically when you split a panzer division into regiments, you're really splitting it into 3 kampfgruppe each of which can be further augmented with attached units. It's not like you're getting 3 tank regiments, you're getting 3 ...

Soviet Motorized Divisions mod (sort of)

<r> Since in this new incarnation of WitE, Soviet motorized divisions are somewhat incongruously styled "mechanized divisions", those of you that want them to sport the historically correct name and the appropriate symbol can follow these quick and dirty rules:<br/>
