Charles22 and Larry Holt: Flanking moves are steps of the wardancing. I think so and so think you. Atleast my maps has space Image

get some 100x240 map and play it with 3500 points or less each. If you are not getting bored after fourth turn without enemy in sight, you are close to be enthusiasts...which I think that I am...

mosh
salute

mosh

If its not rotten, shoot again

He you all...take a 100x240 map and 3500 points of units...its a big map (add a lot of turns (30-50) and you have a good battle.
There are those victory hexes to let you know where to find the enemy (but not what direction he is coming from)
Battles can always end before the turns allowed are used (occupy all the objectives/break the enemy)
IMHO battles should not just end....one side should be forced to admit defeat and withdraw. Or one side meets all it's mission objectives, with the enemy unable/unwilling to retake them.

I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a differant direction!

skukko: I think I agree but 3500 pts. goes a lot further in '39 than '45. So, in '39, 3500 pts. might buy 100 units, but that doesn't include support. If I have 100+ units and the map width is 80, do you think I can be outflanked? I don't think so. What's even more miserable is to occassionally getting stuck with the 40 wide map, thus ensuring two or three rows of units all the way across (not that I would position them that way, but it points out the futility of trying to outflank with a smaller map, although I realize that that particular map is MEANT to confine one to a direct attack).

Goodness me! I can't imagine going four turns and not seeing the enemy (particularly if they were attacking). Ah, how much more sporting it would be to actually have to do some REAL hunting. Having a 3500 force with a rear with two very outside objectives and one mid one, with two more along the front, would probably make for such good fun. Given that the AI would have so much room to roam and the tendency for it to not always go after just one, two, or three objectives on the front, this would be quite interesting, but, alas, I know it not.

OOOOOOOOOOOOH FINALLY it's time to pay for demonstrating how much we love you boys !!
If you have done so much and so well for free how much more should we expect from something that will be awarded with our direct money support ? Reality has left very far behind when such a dream comes true !
So you can count on me with this REAL support and moreover I hope that everyone who has been 'captured' from SPWAW will do the same now that is time to translate words in facts !

I live in Italy and I have no credit card with me...I bought SPWAW 3.0 from EZcd.com last summer...I wrote to them and I stated about my lack of credit card..I asked to them if I could mail dollars directly into a post-folder...
This was succesfull..I received the CD and they received my money...Maybe this is quite unsafe...but I loved too much SPWAW that I tried ...it was the cheapest way to do it ..
Will be this possible also for SPWAW5 ?

Secondly I would ask if there will be some improvements in campaign editor such as the possibility of creating more flexible campaigns..I would like to prepare an Italian long campaign but I have some trouble in modelling core units . Where I can write about this ?

Thank for all since the beginning !

Finally! A way of showing our thanks for all of your hard work.

I have been introducing the pleasures of SP to my friends and we are all enjoying this game greatly. I haven't even played another game since v 4.5.

It would be great to have a campaign made for human v human if that kind of balance could be worked in.

Looking forward to buying the CD!

This place foams in praises Image
Well deserved praises i might add. I am too one of those miserable low-tech humanoids who don't posses credit cards, so i would appreciate for some other means of purchasing SPWaW 5.
Post order perhaps?
