RE: The Rarity Feature: Turn it OFF

<t> Yes well sometimes I could think : "Oh Mein Gott das is zo wonderful that my opponent can't purchase those pesky ATGs against my Panthers! ja!" when I advance in Kursk but really - just as originally said it doesn't work. <br/>
No "feature" could be as effective as opponent who does not buy ...

RE: Minimizing Casualties

<t> Yes well to be honest I do feel uncomfortable every time one of my squads looses more than one man as I play Germans only. But still I am too newbie to wargaming with my couple years so I can haven't tried to characterize my troops very often. Only when writing AARs and even so faintly enough ...

If they get lucky and survive their mission - congratulations! Otherwise - though luck. But I don't imagine will I play more wimpy if I don't ...

<t> BryanMelvin:<br/>
I assumed units with no weapons (even without small arms) just can't assault. Haven't played SPWAW for ages though, just H2H.<br/>

As for planes case might be that target moved and another unit took it's place and got targeted instead thus. Quite possible as I doubt ...

Also it does not look like planes pick targets with higher values like said in OOB-changes file. Maybe it wasn't ment like this - aircraft attack was set on Jagdtiger, it moved two ...

RE: command control and orders

<t> C2 isn't difficult system however it takes some time to get used with it - I'd suggest play couple games with some "mentor" who is helpful enough to explain C2 and answer to questions. Also playing against AI isn't bad idea to run first few tests.<br/>

RE: alternative at-weapons?

I wasn't kidding about snipers killing tanks (even Tiger!) - it's frustrating when happens to yourself and funny when happens to enemy. It makes no sense that units with no suitable weapons can assault tanks but such is life. Doesn't ruin great game though.

RE: alternative at-weapons?

<t> Ambushing snipers do their job well by hitting T-34's with rifle and sending those up in flames.<br/>

Just kidding, I dislike how units with no suitable weapons can assault tanks and destroy them.<br/>

So I'd suggest assaulting with infantry units, all sort of scouts work fine ...

RE: Immobilized vehicle towing?

<t> One option would always be to bail out crew - maybe they are lucky enough and can get away when you provide covering fire or protect their escape route with smoke.<br/>

Later when this sector of battlefield is more quiet you can return with crew and get back in vechile. F9 is hotkey to ...

RE: infantry guns and recoiless rifles

<t> Speaking of germans ... Infantry guns can supress enemy units pretty well, sometimes I have bought section of those and then not so I'm pretty neutral. For supression self-propellered howitzer StuH-42 or StuG is pretty good, or Brummbär in streetfighting. The bigger gun the bigger supression and ...

RE: Crew-served weapons - too hard to hit!

I agree with molotv_billy on this. Historical (if you read Panzer Aces for exsample), knocking out ATGs with crew in single hit wasn't too rare.
There are many historical things which annoy some players...
