<t> hi,<br/>
<br/>
I've often been puzzled by how far to the rear some units go when you order them to attack. The preferred formation often seems to be a long trailing column. Sometimes units are so far back it's hard to see what role they could play in the fight. The latest example of this for ...

<t> I always hate those threads where someone kicks them off and is never heard from again... So as the original poster I'll just quickly put in my tuppence worth. From the little I've played, and from what I've heard here, I think I'll be putting CoG to one side for a while, but will definitely be ...

<t> hi,<br/>
<br/>
I downloaded CoG recently and have had a quick go at playing -- nothing serious, just trying things out. One of the messages that popped up caught my eye -- something about "Russians fighting Tunisians in English Channel." It got me wondering about the historicity of CoG. What ...

Something that put me off buying this game was a comment by an FPG player in comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.war-historical, to the effect that the AI would happily advance through its own minefields... I was wondering if anyone else had noticed this and if the current patch had put it ...

I'm playing my second post-tutorial scenario -- Para Rescue, Day 1, 23:40. I ordered an attack north-west from Son bridge by the 1/6th Queen's Inf. Hadn't intended the attack to drag on through the night -- but there it was, units tired out and slowly pushing forwards. Impatient ...

<t> Thanks for the responses. I like the idea of setting losses to minimum. I guess you could interpret that as saying to a unit, The least thing happens, let me know! In terms of reports in general, as I said, even playing a small-scale scenario like tutorial #2, you could see how being deluged ...

<t> hi,<br/>
<br/>
I've just finished the two tutorials. I'm enjoying the game but I have a couple of queries.<br/>
<br/>
1. In the second tutorial you have reinforcements that airdrop in. At first I started to give these reinforcements their orders as and when they arrived, following the ...
