What's your ETA on this mod being available?

I'd given up hope on ever seeing it. Kudos to you for picking up the flag again.

Buy it! It's great. But to whine a little, sometimes its just too damn hard, like when you have finally beaten the enemy, have just a few tanks left, and 6 Matilda's show up as reinforcements!

My SWAG for the release of V7 and Mega Campaign ...

<t>Totally agree. Probably not possible in existion code of SPW@W but might be something for Combat Leader. True, there are tons of documented occurrences of troops using both their own side's equipment that they were not originally asigned to and using captured equipment. If this is done it would ...

<t>Yes, it is possible, but not as a generated battle, to do what you want to do you need to create a scenario. <br/>
<br/>
Here are the steps: <br/>
<br/>
1. Go to scenario editor.<br/>
2. Select the sides, dates, type of battle and points. <br/>
3. Select your map, use a random one or specialy ...

<t>It would be nice to be able to deploy your units by yourself, but I fully understand the reasons why it is the way it is. In most cases I have spent the first few turns repositioning my units, as it seems that simply marching forward from the start place would be a good way to quickly find a ...

<t>I also thouroughly read and enjoy the text and pictures before each battle. It makes my decision making process about which choice of battle to chose that much more fun. Usually I have ended up with the non standard choices, and they have been great fun. <br/>
<br/>
One thing I'm wondering about ...

Just go cold turkey.
Stop doing it.

It's better that way.

<br/>
Great Job! Its awesome.<br/>
<br/>
So for I've done these scenarios:<br/>
Stop the train - moderate victory<br/>
Hit the reinforcements in the flank - moderate victory<br/>
Search and destroy the SAS - decisive victory<br/>
Get Wavell - moderate ...

<t>In "Stop that train" I simply ran from the Matilda's, their reputation having put the fear of God into me about them. I guess I was lucky that they didn't retake all my VOs, but since I had accomplished the main mission of destroying the train and ammo dumps I didn't mind. <br/>
<br/>
The next ...

Thanks for the info, I'm sure it will come in handy in the next few minutes of my MC scenario.

What command makes tanks use their smoke dischargers? Specifically PzIV and PzIII? I can lay smoke with the x button using my smoke rounds, but there is usually 1 round of smoke discharger ammo that I can never figure out how to use.

Thanks,

<t>There is a fairly indepth side discussion on the use of gas going on in the later pages (6-8) of the thread "Has Nationalism gone out of style" in the Art of Wargaming forum. It specifically mentions that the Germans decided against using gas because they knew that the British would retaliate ...

I've had my PzIIIs get the sandbags around them after sitting for a few turns and gaining "in cover" status.

<t>I had two pbem games going in v4.5, but couldn't wait for them to finish before installing the MegaCampaign. <br/>
<br/>
I copied the whole folder with v4.5 to a new folder titled "Old SP", tested that it would run out of that folder, and then upgraded to 5.01, 5.2, 5.3, and now I guess I'll have ...

<t>I've converted SL#1-3 The Streets of Stalingrad. I just got out mapboard #1, recreated it as much as possible with the map editor, though many of the multihex buildings on the SL map are quite different than SL, and bought the units accordingly. Things aren't exact as leader counters are attached ...

Thanks, no wonder I got a draw, half my force was sitting by the edge of the map just waitin, after having driven over the exit hex. I'll have to try that again.

Thanks

I remember reading that one could order a crew of an immobilized vehicle to bail out, but I can't find what that command is. Anyone know?

Thanks,

Scot Stephenson

<t>Wild Bill, or anyone who knows the answer,<br/>

I choose the supply depo destroying mission for my first Mega Campaign Battle. <br/>

I destroyed the train, blew the ammo dumps and Command Post, then hightailed it into the night, after taking moderate to heavy losses. <br/>
