I would like to try an experimental type of game with me playing Soviets and someone else Germans. SPH2H, Dec 1944, C&C On.

This will be a scenario which bypasses the normal purchase system. Historic ratings remain in effect.

All I will say at this point is that you will command a combined armour/infantry force on an unusual large map (100x80). You get to choose your AFVs and their ammo loadouts.

More details if I get a taker

Jess I don't believe you Though the scen can work the other way around as well ... T-34 Jess?

bud is that the actual release of the new version of H2H or are you talking about the 7.1 OOBs?

Like I said this is highly experimental; vaguely inspired by the tank fight games. The basic idea is to see who can choose and use armour (and ammo) best but in a combined arms environment. Another aim is to make every unit "precious".

Salient points:

• Any tank may be "purchased" but the more expensive ones get reduced ammo loadouts.
• The map is totally unrealistic and symmetrical
• It is also not very vehicle friendly in places.
• Vehicle breakdowns is On but Weapon Breakdowns is Off
• Both sides have roughly symmetrical forces i.e. 9 AFVs and 3 platoons of infantry (with transport).
• The infantry is generic i.e. no elites and no squad AT weapons except grenades.
• However each platoon does get an expanded Inf-AT team to compensate.
• 3 of the AFVs (the defence - TDs) are restricted as to where they can go by the map.
• The other AFVs may accompany the infantry on their quest to capture the objectives.
• There is no arty - if you want to pound the grunts with HE you'll have to get your tanks to do it.
• There is no infantry smoke. Again you must get your tanks to provide this function.
• The Searching parameter is set to 50%. This ameliorates the infantry "hiding" problem a bit and is going to be the new SPH2H default anyway.

If you're concerned about playing C&C On all I can say is that a) all units have pre-assigned sensible objectives and b) in brief play-testing I only had to re-assign objectives once in 20 turns.
