Of all the rifle caliber rounds in WW2 , the US 30-06 was the most powerful at Most Ranges ... admitiedly not by much, 30-06,8mm (The 198 grain sS round, The typical round for WW2) 7 ...

Kevin.. I have the same problem .. just figured it was a typical Matrix D/L- install thing .. I run mine from Mech anyway.

And remember that there is one formula for tanks...one for arty..one for infantry..

Correct

<t> The cost formula are part and parcel of the "spreadsheet from hell" and would make no sense if just printed out as they address the values of various columns and fields in the spreadsheet. .. If you can get a copy of the spreadsheet it inculdes the formula, and can ( after updating any changed ...

M10 sorry charlie .. those features will be " designer only" .. despite the fact that WP was the most common round fired by the 4Duece. Maybe if you are lucky you will be "allowed" to play with them in a special scenario, but 5 will get you 10 that the US will not have a FO in that scenario.

<t> Matt I can think of a couple of reasons..<br/>
1 Management is still directly involved in game developement , responds directly and promptly to questions, and are willing to explain their decsions and reasons for any change based on documentable facts.<br/>
2 The game inculdes a point value ...

<t> Rune .. I am not trying to start anything.. I just want to know if i should wait for a " better AI version .. assuming that that means a more historicaly based OOB addressing some of the more radical departures that showed up in 8.1 or go back to 7.1 to start an long campaign... if they have ...

<t> Just a couple of quick questions .. <br/>
1 On the off board artillery.. were all nations reduced across the board as a matrix balancing policy or were individual nations adjusted to better reflect historical differences in national artllery and ammo supply ? The statement above seems to ...

<t> Couple of factors come into play here ... first off the stability of the mount and the ability of a mount to provide stable continious fire. The ability to quickly engage mulitiple targets or engage fast moving targets is diametrically opposed to a stable mount for sustained fire. Typically AAA ...

<r> I don't think the sins of the fathers should be visited upon the sons. But I do think a hard and pityless look at History is the only thing that can keep humanity from repeating the mistakes made by countries in the past. I am always amazed at how folks can get simple facts so wrong. The ...

<t> Not to take sides is the smoke grenade debate , but if anybody would look at the ammo load outs on US Army Armored vechicles in the US Army Standard Ordnance catalog, you would find that the typical loadout for a US halftrack or tank or TD was about a dozen smoke grenades 4 to 6 smoke pots ...

<t> VT fuses were US/Brit only , they were a highly classified technology , jointly developed by US and Brit scientists in the US as one of those "special relationship " items much like the Manhatten project. WP was almost exclusively US during WW2, the Brits getting some small quanities later in ...

<t> Oh and just so ou know on theVT fusing issue , the VT fusing was used by the US Navy starting about mid '43, the decision to not use it over land was for security reasons , we ( the US) had plenty of VT fuses . They decide to use them in AAA against V-1's in sept '44 and then imediately decided ...

<t> Major , the problem is WP is just to dang effective in real life, as well as in the game. The problem is NOT the modeling , it models fine as naplam. Read some of the refferences above, I already dumbed it down by leaving the values close to regular HE. Brit tests figured if 100 Brit 3" HE ...

RockinHarry has a point. Many times in the course of a game I have seen my LMG's not only be less effective because the enemy unit went to ground after being hit by rifle fire, but in some cases not fire at all. Then this "pinned" unit ...

How are you getting slot 1 to fire a weapon as a single weapon ?

<t> would i be pushing my luck if i suggested that you add a 4.2 " mortar by copying the current 4.2 to the duplcate M2 60mm in the US OOB and then changing the new 4.2 weapons class to napalm up the HE kill a point and the warhead size by 2 . the all you have to do is create a WP 4.2 Mortar section ...

I agree on the rarity of the StrumTiger. However the crane was used to reload the Stumtiger after it expended its ammo load out that was already onboard. It was not used to reload every shot.
