Re: Campaign Series Vietnam - YouTube

What a fight! Our assaults started working to our benefit and we managed to squeak a major victory by the end of the scenario. We were scrapping over one final position on the final turn, which the Viet Cong managed to keep holding. We tried though. This session has a lot of tidbits of advice and ...

Re: dcg platoon order of battles read from *.obx??

Yes, they are only read from the obx files.

If you email me your file, I can encrypt it for you.

Re: West Front - Battle of Crete 1941

Holy crap, we managed to break into the western outskirts of Chania! It's a hell of a fight and bloody, but we are pushing into the city. Souda is still a major thorn though. It seems that is where there are a lot of British and Greek reinforcements coming. Darkness fell, so I am using the cover of ...

You can go into the game folder, find the BTL or BTE file that you were playing with and copy it to another folder.

Re: Campaign Series Vietnam - YouTube

Digging them out is a challenge indeed, but fun nevertheless. It is interesting to try different tactics. I'm using the 2.20.10 BETA UPDATE, and found another issue related to assaults and tunnels. Hopefully this will be resolved for the official release. The battle itself is going well, although I ...

Re: Campaign Series: Vietnam v2.20.00 Public Beta Now Available

Yes, they didn't, but it was available since 1948 from the Swedes.

As noted above, it was included for a couple hypothetical Cold War scenarios (think Nordic) I have in my mind, but they are definitely not included in the official structures (aka, company+) until 1962.

I really appreciate you ...

Re: Campaign Series: Vietnam v2.20.00 Public Beta Now Available

Ah, I see, it is just listed in the platoon file, but not actually used in the official organizations.

It is included for Cold War hypotheticals.

Hmm, no, they shouldn't be.

Even in the data the Carl Gustav doesn't show up until 1962 in the rifle platoons?

Re: West Front - Battle of Crete 1941

We continue advancing towards Chania, although it's a very bloody affair. The batteries are having a field day on our poor Paras in the east. Even without Line of Sight, they attack strength was enough to completely eliminate a whole company with leaders. That was a rough go indeed. I thought I ...

Re: Campaign Series Vietnam - YouTube

What a challenging scenario. It has been a doozy of a fight. We broke past the halfway point in the scenario and we are making some progress, which is good. It's been a messy and bloody affair though, each position has taken a vast amount of troops and artillery support to break down the defences ...

Re: West Front - Battle of Crete 1941

We are slowly whittling down the British on the island. After a lot of hard fighting, we're pushing onto Chania from two directions. There are significant defences there, but we found one undefended road, which we will hopefully use en force later in the scenario. At the moment, we are doing our ...

Re: Campaign Series Vietnam - YouTube

Well firetruck. Talk about a mess and a half. There are Viet Cong everywhere and they are dug in exceptionally well. We are making some progress and succeeded in securing two primary objectives, but it has taken nearly half the scenario to do it and the losses. Well, it is best not to talk about the ...

Re: AI turning off sometimes

I think that scenario is intended to be played as Side A.

Until the scenarios are scripted, it seems that HAL doesn't perform as well as it used to.

At the moment, I'd venture to say the best experience is PBEM, unless you're fighting against a defended AI.

Always happy to play!

Re: Edge Scrolling and Unit Toolbar

The scroll edge will be remedied in the pending UPDATE, which the BETA should be available soon.

The unit list is in progress, that is the latest version based on the feed back we had before saying it was too small.
