War is chaotic and quality of intelligence has always been a big problem. Do you think that Operation Market Garden would have been ever started if Paratroopers would have known that there are two SS Panzer divisions next to bridges they are ...

One of the issues with simulating aircraft movement in conjunction with ground movement is the massive discrepency in speed. We can get away with a one minute time interval for ground movement, where a motorised unit ...

As far as I can tell, anything said with a British accent has a tendency to sound British. In any case, shouldn't the word be said with a French accent?

Mechanical breakdown is not modelled. If there was a tank missing, it either surrendered or you killed it.

It's not?

At the scale of the Panther engine (average of 5 day battles involving 1 division on each side) tactical recce aircraft were only available at the divisional level - and then only for US forces from 1944 onwards, so turning the current ...

Too right Sarge you know the score - I have been map scouring and ploting our defensive posistion's made in 40-41. It would have been murder. A lot of theses posistions still exist. I will post some soon.<br/>

<t> I don't think counter-battery fire was ever direct except in the most exceptional of circumstances. In fact, apart from naval artillery (and even in this case the vast majority of spotting was done from the air), I can't think of what form direct counter-battery fire would take. Probably the ...

It will be interesting to see how BFC handles individual soldiers in its new Combat Mission engine. Honestly, I'd rather they improve their air and artillery system, but who knows. Maybe we'll get it all.<br/>

A last word on Panzer Campaigns to be fair. I reworked ...

<t> Hello<br/>
<br/>
1. Panzer Campaigns is, and I think I am saying nothing new here, a cash cow for HPS. Each new battle is, while somewhat well-researched up to a certain point, based on an engine which has received only minor adjustments over the last eleven years. I have seen all of their ...

Ranges and arcs ... I think that is CMBB/CMAK which has that. RDOA/HTTR/COTA only have ROF.<br/>
<br/>
Regarding the casualty settings, I believe that it only changes behavior when a [P]ROBE is ordered. Otherwise, I ...

<t> And not to point out the obvious, but the acceptable casualty settings have a large impact on how often a unit can attack, retreat, reorganize and attack again: a feature which I like and do not like at the same time.<br/>

I like it because it allows me to control the level of commitment ...

Does your reference to incorporating differences in doctrine imply that the German superiority in small arms tactics, small unit leadership and individual initiative over almost every other army on the planet at the time is not currently a ...

Yes but you will be restricted to the existing Estabs which do not cover Soviet units. FYI we are setting up an East Front Data Design Team ( DDT ) which will start developing the data content for battles on the Eastern Front. Part of their task will ...

We can throw quotes at each other, but words are just words and it is historical actions that count more. Some books, records and diaries are true, some are honest but wrong, some are deliberately intended to confuse and cover errors. I am sure ...
