FO's and movers can go outside of the points allocation. Ammo dumps are expensive, but they eliminate the need for more guns and/or restrictions on firing, so if you need them I'd say they go within the limits.

Then again, an additional ammo dump vs. a company of infantry or a couple of extra tanks? Prioritizing one's purchases limits the amount of ammo dumps anyway. And they are juicy targets!

Eh..so.. I guess I can go with both alternatives.

Gary, I hope you don't feel like I've personally attacked you. I can only provide my thoughts based on my experiences in the first WC. So, since I didn't really lose to anyone else, my thoughts on improving the next one are mostly based on that loss. I can't really gripe about the wins I had can I?

RB nah don't take much personally except for being beat.

2) Germany

dodger · Post by **dodger** » Sun Feb 16, 2003 12:53 am

One more thing.

Is everything allowed that's not expressly forbidden? Can you use forts to protect your rear in a meeting engagement, drop paratroops, use ski troops in summer, etc..??

I plan to play Finland, and they didn't have "Ski troops" that they only used in the winter and mothballed for the summer. Finnish ski patrols were regular infantry that was equipped a little better, and maybe chosen from the better elements of companies.
