I think the problem is running it in Windows with your current video driver/settings. The SP1 manual has instructions for creating a DOS boot disk to start the game, this will run the game entirely in DOS thus eliminating any problems ...

I think the default setting for Command Control should be "off" so it doesn't "put off" or scare away newbies. Veterans already know how to enable and use it.<br/>

The same with Opportunity Fire; once they have the basics, they can enable more realistic modes of play at ...

Cardinal Fang, Let me guess...

Your chief weapons are fear, surprise and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.

<r>Fellow wargamers,<br/>

Have you had a chance to download "The Rampaging Char B" scenario?<br/>
<br/>
If you've already played it, I would greatly appreciate your input. Too hard? Too easy? Just plain dumb? Let me have it!<br/>

If you have ANY comments or suggestions please email me ...

I opened your scenario .dat file with WAW Ed and noticed that even though the tanks have been immobilized, they have no damage.<br/>

I believe that if the tanks were a little damaged, the crews could not fix them so ...

The "starshell" round could last for one turn. Or a HQ unit could fire a flare gun with a smaller illumination radius than the artillery shell. I remember using those in Squad Leader.<br/>
<br/>
Good idea!<br ...

pzmap51.cmt and pzmap51.dat are the map files. They are imbedded in the scenario's *.dat file and aren't really necessary. Maybe the author included the map so it could be used for other battles. You can discard the map files put it in the map folder if its usable.

Scenario files always go in the SPWaW/Scen folder (the scenario folder). The downloaded zip file usually contains 3 files; Scenxxx.dat, Scenxxx.cmt, and Scenxxx.txt. Some authors may include additional reference files with their ...

Do infantry units assaulting a tank have to pass a "pre-AFV attack" morale check or is the influence of morale reflected in the percentage to hit/kill?

I think they need their intestinal fortitude checked before they attempt the assault.

<t>CLARIFICATION<br/>
<br/>
If you downloaded a Campaign, the *.wav file goes in the CAMPAIGN folder with the campaign you downloaded.<br/>
<br/>
If the *.wav is a modification of the game's sound map (an explosion or gun sound, etc.), listen to it first to be sure its a suitable replacement for the ...

Yes.

Historical accuracy is very imortant to me, Thanks for your input.

Could you tell me when German panzer units started using APCR ammunition?

Those Irish sure do fix their tanks quickly! Almost like the battery was dead and just needed a jump. One tank was fixed on the first turn! <IMG src="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/eek.gif"><s>[img]</s><URL url="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/eek.gif">http://www.matrixgames.com ...

<r> First, if you want to get right in there and have fun without learning about orders, go to PREFERENCES and turn COMMAND CONTROL "OFF." Now all units can move freely. This will give you a small advantage over an opponent with command control "on" but not overwhelming.<br/>

Still here? OK ...

<t>RE: Tanks "coming back to life"<br/>

If these are tanks that were designed to be wrecks at scenario start and were not immobilized during play, maybe you could set their crew size (number of men) to zero along with their movement allowance in the EDITOR. I'm sure tanks need a crew to be ...
