1. Does "Main Effort" only apply to offensive operations (taking ground or objectives)?

Depending on how much planning or prep you do, real-world scenario times range from 2 hours for a small scenario to 8 or more for a large or extra-large one. You can save your scenario at any point during the playthrough. There is an autosave as well. Each scenario is one particular battle, and most ...

Thanks for the info. Issues posted to the team.

Glad you figured it out. Enjoy!

Noted the issue with the team. Thanks for the update.

This is a known issue, and we'll fix it in the next update. Sorry for the problem.

Kevin was investigating an issue where units weren't evaluating shots at long ranges properly in some cases, and that correction may be in the release now. I'll have to check in on the Monday call if I am on it (dealing with a family hospice situation right now). That may be what has made the change ...

The scenario selection screen has a drop-down that lets you choose Cold War or LL scenarios. If you see the LL splash, the DLC should be loaded and playable.

What are your system specs. Is this a Matrix or Steam install for both products?

Nice info. Thanks for posting. I will check it out this weekend.

MikeAP,
1). Fair point, and we don't model reliability/duds, but we do take into account the technical differences between similar equipment.
2). We do factor in the human side of things when weapons fire, but we probably need another pass on base accuracies for ATGM, similar to the pass that I am ...

I'm having the guys review the lack of the Apilas in the French mech infantry forces for post 85 times. Something looks off in my quick review. Thanks for posting the issue.

Thanks for the info and save. I alerted the team to this issue, @Zumwalt. We are looking into it.

I'll ask on today's Dev call and see if there is an answer to the problem. Thank you for your patience.

Reported to the team. This is a side effect of a broken fix for AA weapons engaging ground targets and we are working on a fix.

Are they mechanized units? My guess is it's a bug where it jumps back to the default sil when wiped out. I'll get a JIRA done up for it so we can review and fix it.

Zumwalt, I have noted your issue with the Dev team. It's the first time I've heard of it, but you make a fair point. I will see what we can do to fix this.

Feel bad that I messed up what was already there. Glad it's all better now.

The Yak-B autocannon on the Hinds did get a tweak for autocannon systems in 3.0.3. It was more of a range issue and a bit of a data issue on the AP. They can still cause fallouts on armor, as they are top attack from helos when hitting ground targets. As for the pen and armor ratings on the ...

@nanni - What major issues with the armor and pen system? I'm not aware of any issues, or I may have missed something. As the head of data and combat models, I'd like to know if there are any so I can address them. Feel free to list those issues here for me to review. We are not perfect, and some of ...
