You, sir, are brilliant. Exactly the kind of thing that I meant [:)]

Arc of visibility of a unit, new feature?

<t> Is it possible to see how far a unit can see? I know it's possible to use the LOS and TLOS tools, but they're not quite good enough. It's difficult to see from where the LOS-tool needs to be used due to deployment, depth and frontage. Also, different units have different visibility ratings. A ...

RE: Order delay details in no order delay period

Once again, thanks for your help. You must find me a very annoying person asking so many questions all the time [:)]

Order delay details in no order delay period

<t> Is it possible to view the regular order delay details (e.g. force load, force delay etc) during the "no order delay" period at the start of the scenario? I can only find the actual delays, which, for the no order delay period is of course not very informative [:)] <br/>

Sometimes it can ...

RE: Controlling direct fire support troops

I take it you place them yourself in a good position and manually use the fire command? Or do you let the assaulting HQ in command of the support troops and let it position it according to its own plans?

Controlling direct fire support troops

What do you think is the best way to use your support troops (AT and MG support) during assaults? Do you keep them attached to a coordinating HQ unit or do you control it yourself? Does it depend on the size of the force you're using?

Is the answer the same for defensive uses?

RE: Newbie question: what do the different unit types do?

<t> OK, I've paged through the strategy guide, which should be said is good. I think it's unfortunate that the information in the Weapons and Equipment chapter is not in the manual itself, but other than that, I'm pleased with the guide.<br/>

Composition of reinforcements

<t> Is there any way to know the details of a group of reinforcements in the reinf-tab? I know I can see the "main" type by the symbol and also how many units there will be, but not what the exact composition will be.<br/>
<br/>
Am I missing something or is this information not present in the ...

RE: Newbie question: what do the different unit types do?

<t> Thanks for the links. I'll be looking into it asap.<br/>
<br/>
And I'm not saying the manual is a bad one, but for such an obviously high quality product, I think the manual is somewhat short of the standard the rest of the package sets. This still means that the manual is very readable and ...

RE: Newbie question: what do the different unit types do?

<t> Thanks for your quick reply. I'll have a look at the strategy guide. Is there by any chance anyone who could list a ToC of the guide so I can judge its contents?<br/>

As an aside and not aimed specifically at the developers/publishers of HttR, I dislike the notion of strategy guides ...

Newbie question: what do the different unit types do?

<t> Since I'm new to both this series and sort of this kind of game, I'm a bit "lost" in the different types of units that are around in HttR. I can guess at the function of certain kinds of units through common sense. For example, I know what arty does, that the para troops (from allied perspective ...
