<t>Try playing your pbem turn and then immediately playing your opponent's turn. You will get the exact message received by Maximus.<br/>

When Maximus opens his turn, the game behaves as if he never received my turn.<br/>

Strangely, it seems to occur around turn 12 of a battle and when I ...

When player one saves, he must not move or shoot until player two has also saved.

<r><QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Originally posted by Richard Harris:<br/>
<B><s>[b]</s>A possible solution to this involves a bit of simple hacking of the OOB's. <br/>
Duplicate the offending weapon(s) and set the duplicate's class to '02- Secondary Infantry'. Then ensure that the units that have these ...

In version 7 I can not buy artillery as reinforcements. Is this intentional or a new wrinkle in the game?

<t>The Canadians name their vehicles after animals. I wouldn't be surprised if that British Army name was really a Canadian Army name.<br/>

True, the British also did that, for example Ferret, Staghound, Firefly, Scorpion, Terrapin, etc but I doubt they ...

Online play: It helps if the player with the faster computer hosts the battle.<br/>
Playing on a telephone dial-up access or by ADSL/Cable makes little difference to the game, however if you're on a dial-up line, be sure to save at ...

It could be that you are seeing the reinforcement turn data superimposed over some other data on the unit list.

Towed or carried, it makes little difference in game terms.

There was a command decision IIRC to limit heavy mortars to one per truck, hence the 100+x carry cost

<t>During bombardments players are often given opportunity fire options for infantry units. Clicking on 'y' continues the bombardment.<br/>

Saving during a battle: player one saves, player 2 is prompted to save and when he does, player 1 is then promted to save.<br/>

Occassionally a unit ...

<t>Now I am confused.<br/>
<br/>
I understand that the units with class "80- Light Mortar" are directly controlled by the platoon commander. Therefore all Light Mortars should be divied among the platoons. (digressive note: this is not the case with USSR formation 1072,1074. These mortars should be ...

<t>In versions 5.01 and earlier, it seemed to me that most battles were fought in rain.<br/>
This was probably an error, since version 6 appears to have permitted a variety of weather conditions.<br/>
Visibility drops greatly in sandstorm conditions as does movement.<br/>
I can't really comment on ...

<t>No, don't change the rarity from 3 to 2.<br/>
A x3 radio code will restrict that unit to the designated formation 100% of the time. It may or may not be available when using the rarity pref set to on.<br/>
A x2 rarity code will make the unit show up in some other formation where any other unit of ...

<t>Large calibre guns are expensive. They are good for short bombardments only hence the low initial ammo loadout. The smaller guns come with more ammo and are very effective for suppressive fire on infantry while not too damaging on armour. Remember this when using version 6.0 because suppression ...

<t>Me too! In version 5.3 my opponent had a sniper armed with a 10.5cm FH and a Vickers HMG with Misc Small Arms as the main weapon. On his end there was no problem. I think the weapons behaved properly (the sniper howitzer made no craters and did not cause more than one casualty per shot) but the ...

Online is best, followed by pbem, followed by the AI (a distant third)

<t>I too, like to play Italy. They have some neat toys too.<br/>
And against matildas, those 90mm AA guns are very useful.<br/>
<br/>
But the Italian army is difficult to control especially when playing with Command and control set to 'on'. I have learned to lead from the rear so my officers can ...

<t>Gun support squads.<br/>

Polish gun teams were large. Mostly the extra men would be horse handlers and ammo bearers etc, but they all carried rifles. And when the guns were firing those extra rifles could be used for defending the guns against infantry attack.<br/>

<t>Turn off your fast artillery option and you should hear the sounds.<br/>
