<t>Paul I have to agree that the model used in the game isnt quite accurate. One of the things they teach you about armor is you NEVER go over a hill. In the game I know I'm invulnerable when crossing the crest of a hill unless its a flank shot and even then its most likely a tink. I know I've ...

<r>Hey Guys. I dont know if this was factored in or not but the T-34/76 had a terrible turret configuration with the commander being gunner and commander, plus a lack of radio and your excellent tanks gets its effectiveness downgraded very fast. Many instances during WW 2 of sinlge T-34's wandering ...

<t>Hi Drake. The only thing the muzzle brake does is reduce gun recoil and direct the blast to the sides to help with visibility after firing. I went back into the encyclopedia for the game and the IS-2 has a M30 122mm. Historically all IS-2,2m,3,4 where all armed with the same weapon the D-25T ...

<t>The main gun of these tanks was the 122mm D-25T and I was wondering why the IS-3 uses a 121.9mm with better armor penetration then the others. The first improved version of this gun (the D-25TA) came out with the T-10 in 1950. Ammo for all three (IS-2/2m/3) was also the same until this newer ...

<t>Hitler was very frustrated by his inability to attack the USA. He was on the receiving end and this caused him a lot of anger. The V-1 and V-2 where terror weapons that appealed to him because it would allow Germany to finally hit back at England after months and months of bombing. Even though ...

<t>Do ammo trucks have to be in the same hex to re-supply units? Will off-board rocket launchers reload for the scenario? Is this dependent on anything? What is the purpose of an ammo dump? I need to know how to re-supply some of my units when they get low on ammo and my ammo trucks dont seem to be ...

Warhorse...thank you very much for the reply. I'm off to download the files now.

<r>The real reason the russians in the early part of the war ran over and into other tanks/guns etc. was they had brand new tanks with no ammo. <IMG src="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/smile.gif"><s>[img]</s><URL url="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/smile.gif">http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/smile.gif ...

<t>I've got the one that comes with the game and the site it recommends visiting no longer seems to be up and running. Was wondering if anyone would know of a place to download another. I want to mess with the artillery patterns and damage to surrounding hexes. I'm also looking for an icon editor or ...

If I remember correctly the 2pdr was 40mm and didnt have an HE round. This may have changed later in the war but in Africa to my knowledge all it fired was solid shot.

<t>Thanks for the info Paul. I do really enjoy the game just a bit frustrated by the hordes of T-43 that are impossible to kill. Been playing the long campaighn and three scenarios of them is driving me nuts. You know you guys could include a limiter on armor effectivness based on the original ...

Klink..thanks, mine says 2.1. hmmm going to have to do some digging in the CD to figure out how to install the 2.2 and 2.3 patch. Thanks again.

<t>Ugly indestructable T-43 pops over hill three hexes from an 88. 88 hits said T-43 for the familiar sounding "tink"..so this time I pay attention to my message, three more tinks with armor ratings all over 14,000. Hmmm dont care what the slope/armor/range is 42 feet of effective armor is a bit ...

Guys I purchased the CD from EZ gamer and the main install file has version 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 in its file name. I've installed it and my start screen still says version 2.1. Do you know how I can check if I'm running 2.3?
