2.04 Soviet MRC (BTR) does not shoot

[CapnDarwin]

No problem. [:D]

does anyone know scenario for PBEM where units don't have manpads? I could not find it

[Lowlaner2012]

Hi Alex, if there is one it will be hard to find, Soviet units are at the real disadvantage here, Soviet Mech sections are rendered useless because of the Gremlin manpad attached to them where as the NATO armies have separate SAM units so they are not that badly affected... I'm sure you know all this anyway

Although the 2.04 patch improved FPRS no end I myself am now waiting for the 2.05 patch to fix this issue, cant wait to get back into the game, this and ageod's CW2 are the best strategy games to come out for years in my opinion...

Well done on finding this bug by the way

[Alex1812]

The bug was founded by Alex1123 [:)]

I also want to see the fix and I'm also playing CW2 and waiting ageod's To End All Wars [;)]

[Lowlaner2012]

Haha sorry I didnt see the different numbers after the name

I beta tested EAW for a bit and it looks and plays really good...

the term manpads just sounds wrong and should be fixed[:D]

[CapnDarwin]

Talk to the US military on that one...[:D]

The scenarios are editable, right? Why not break out the MANPADS teams from Soviet MRCs (and any other unit you want to retain ground shoot capability)? Put them in a command type vehicle appropriate to the parent unit. I plan on doing that rather than wait.

Edited to add:

I think this is doable. I am going to work up 3rd Herd tonight.

[CapnDarwin]

That is an option to break them out. We are hoping to have the 2.05 patch to Matrix Monday if all goes well with debugging and testing over the weekend here. Might take them a few days to get it setup depending on their workload. You guys know the drill.[;)]

[IronMikeGolf]

I think I can do this without going to the User spreadsheet. It will be close, but not exact.

I posted an edit to the head-to-head for 3rd Herd here: HL_AS 3rd Herd_Bugfix scenario

Thanks for the update Capn Darwin, hope the patch process goes smoothly
