The observer you are using to shift the fire in is too far back. Use a closer observer, like the platoon leader. For some reason the game equates the distance from the FO as the weapon range while calling fire. If the FO is 46 hexes from the ...

I think 'turret' is just shorthand for superstructure. [8D]

<t> There are only three sources of ammo supply: Dumps, Carriers, Boxes. (all others are imitations)<br/>
A unit waiting for rearmament must be in the hex adjacent or in the same hex as the ammo supply.<br/>

"A Meeting of Devils"

The Germans and the Brits have a simultaneous airdrop around a vital bridge. Hilarity ensues.
It's small, plays fast and, due to the randomness of airdrops, emminently replayable.

One of my favorites (but no armor. [:(] )

Click the aircraft and then L, then the squad, with the squad being in the same hex. Same as with landing barges. Note planes or barges, trucks, etc., can be overloaded during design by first lowering the size of the squad, loading, then using ...

I use a real life tactic.<br/>
Use mortars or light artillary (75mm works well) to pin down enemy targets. The plot rockets onto their posistion. Since they can move the delay isnt the big of a problem.

This game won't waste APCR. That's why you almost never see the 88mm L71 APCR used. It is so powerful, the crew are afraid to use it. Only if they come across a battleship.

I last communicated with Buzzard about a week ago. He said he had some real life issues and a move to deal with, but that everything was okay.

Haven't heard from him since. i assume he's still okay. [8D]

<t> Smoke doesn't seem to affect AAs ability to target aircraft.<br/>
<br/>
I prefer small caliber AA as they tend to fire more often than the big stuff. They may not get that Kill, but if they hit at all, that aircraft isn't coming back. Just shooting at the A/C is enough to bugger their ...

One word: Kuebelwagens (or the like). Cheap, fast units. Scoot them to the hex to see if you have a target or to check the los, then scoot them out of the way for the real move.

<t> IME, it's the Soviet tanks that are the most likely to survive that up-close shot. I suspect it's because of their extremely sloped armor. If a T-34 gets adjacent to you, you have a real problem on your hands. Tigers, and even Pershings, will glance shots off a T-34s sloped armor.<br/>

<t> After they've bailed, set their range to '0'. This should allow them to 'disappear' and make them less likely to draw fire. This is always a good idea. Especially when the crew bail without any weapons or smoke.<br/>

They need to be in the same hex as their abandoned vehicle. Crews will ...

He's my partner - and even I don't know what he means by ABP. Context told me that he was referring to the FO (Forward Observer).

ABP must be a Canadian term? [&:][8D]
