It gets worse. [:@]<br/>
<br/>
I remaned my leaders in MCDF and after a few scenarios I started seeing something odd. I would get messages such as " , reduces suppression". I went and looked at the units whose names I had changed and saw ...

JJ, you got VC knocking on the front door.

Yes Glenn, welcome back.

<t> Yes as in it depends what the designer put in each battle. I don't know the exact number of scenario designers there were, but each may have done it differently. Perhaps Rockin' Harry can chime in as he was a part of that MC. I am basing my comments on conversations I had with Brent Richards ...

Basically yes, that is one of the things that make the megas what they are. The unpredictability of just what you are up against.

Considering your luck there JJ, all the nurses will look like Pamela Anderson but they'll all be a bit out of focus, eh?

<t> Happens to me in all 4 MC's. All 4 MC's I have are from the 8.0 team CD and have been subsequently installed into later versions, 8.2, then 8.3 and finally 8.4, as they became available. Any saved game crashes, sometimes right after clicking on one unit, sometimes it takes 2 or 3 different units ...

Happened to me too, once. Never could figure out why. I just carried on and eventually they came back. Remember too, the MC only stretches for about 6 mos of "real time" so that's about all the upgrades you get.

IIRC, against the AI, they are approximately:

7-1 or greater... Decisive Victory
greater than 3-1 but less than 7-1..... Marginal Victory
less than 3-1 .... draw

Against a human, the ratios are slightly more forgiving

In past SP campaigns I have renamed units and leaders so as to be able to tell core from aux units as well as to keep better track of their purposes (AT squad 1 vs 3co/4th)<br/>

In my first Mega Campaign (MCLV) I have tried this and ...

It works reasonably well in WinSPMBT. MP costs for reverse movement are 3x whatever forward in that terrain type are, so you can't go far, hopefully just far enough.

No JJ, this won't work with H2H, as it does have it's own unique mech.exe.

21" 1024 x 768

It was actually designed for 7.1 ( I think, might have been 7.0?) so if you really want to be a purist, play it in that. But I have played it in every version out since then up to now 8.3 and have not experienced any problems.

I'm still around. Took a bit of a break for RL stuff and slowly coming back.

robot IIRC, it's alt-m for melee and alt-o for overrun.

Thanks Bill! I really would appreciate any information on compatability of the first 3 megacampaigns with version 8.2 and version 8.3. I own all of the megacampaigns, but I would buy the General's edition if all the megacampaigns worked with ...

Look at the delay time for arrival of the incoming. If it is very low, say 0.1 or 0.0, then what is happening is that the rounds are already in the air and cannot be moved around.
