RE: SPWAW Enhanced FV (Final Version)
adding more
46. Added JgdPz IV (A) unit to Czech OOB.
47. Changes to Italian OOB:
a. Changed 65mm Mnt How unit to “Infantry Gun” class.
b. Changed ammunition load for the SMV M41 75/18.
c. Added the PPSh SMG weapon for “designer” use in scenarios taking place in Russia.
48. Rebuilt US Combat Group formations; renamed them as Combat Team.
49. Rebuilt US Task Force formation.
50. Added M4 AOP unit to US OOB for 1943-19545 period. Used in Armoured Field Artillery Battalions as FO.
51. Added 21cm Moerser 18 heavy artillery to the Czech OOB for German use. Offmap only.
52. Created US Glider Ldr unit (Platoon HQ class) for Glider Infantry formations. Unit includes a 60mm mortar as a secondary weapon.
53. Rebuilt SO Assault Company to have more foot troops.
54. Rebuilt GE Sturm Company to have more foot troops.
55. Corrected APCR weapon data for SO 45mm L46 & L66 weapons in all OOBs where it appears.
56. Rebuilt Ethiopian formations in Republican Spain OOB.
57. Reworked most of the Nationalist Spain infantry units and formations for correct dates and formation composition.
58. Added 8mm Hotchkiss HMG weapon and unit to the India OOB for early-war period (Indian Army equipped with WWI-era weapons until around 1942).
59. Added more grenade weapons to various nations. Adjusted units to use correct grenade type based on supplier, year, and availability. For example: Yugoslavia’s own grenade, the Mod.38, was used until Germany invaded. Then supplies of Stielhandgrante 24s were provided, until the Soviets “liberated” the country. At which time the Soviets began outfitting the Yugoslavs with the M14/30 grenade. All three are now in the YU OOB
60. Pz IV A wasnt showing up in Czech oob, fixed.
61. Readjusted motorcycle units. Units with more than 6 men in Crew are now Size 2, as they would be easier to spot. In those M/C units that have a LMG in Slot #1, the weapon was a Secondary Infantry classed weapon, which the game code interpreted to mean only one crewman was armed with it; corrected this by adding “copies” of these LMGs as Primary Infantry class weapons. Game will now assume all members of the crew carry this weapon; this only applies to those units with 2-, 3- or 4-man crews. Possibility now of each crew (motorcycle) firing its LMG, making unit more deadly. As a consequence, Unit Costs have risen dramatically for these LMG motorcycles. Also removed “elite” status for many M/C formations.
62. Adjusted LRDG units in various OOBs to change the weapon mix. Changed name to Morris 15 LRDG, as many of the trucks were Morris-built versions of a Chevrolet model.
46. Added JgdPz IV (A) unit to Czech OOB.

Exactly how soon is soon?
Looks like we may have a delay until sept 1
RE: SPWAW Enhanced FV (Final Version)
Some more additions...from Lahtinen...
"New" Romanian vehicle graphics. Basicaly a bit darker green color, which hopefuly looks better than the yellowish green it was before. Also a new graphic for the "Romanian Maresal Tank Destroyer" unit.
Also new Battle SHP file which now includes the correct Romanian flag instead of the wrong flag left from Steel Panthers 3 seen in the Battle settup screens, etc...
Furthermore while looking at the US TD's Wolverine and Jackson 90mm , still had the old barrel graphics (that look too thin),
adjusted these.
Even Furthermore noticed that all the STUG's had too thin barrel graphics so it almost looks that they have no gun at all on certain terrains! So also fixed graphics for all the Stugs in game so that the barrels are more clearly visible.
Lastly: the desert SHP's for the Russian tank graphics. Since it can be possible that on certain maps or battle side setups the old graphics would still be used, the desert SHP's have been added.

Hmm...I kinda liked it. The "old" one looks too "regular" for foxholes...looks more like a stand of leafless trees.
Never really liked the "round" sandbag entrenchments either.
RE: SPWAW Enhanced FV (Final Version)
Cant decide which one I like better
Maybe we should 'poll' it.

The new one doesn't look "bad" it just covers up so much of the underlying terrain it dominates the hex. The round sandbags are right out.ORIGINAL: FlashfyreSP

RE: SPWAW Enhanced FV (Final Version)
Hmmm....I seem to recall having done something a few years ago. Can't recall what exactly, though...
RE: SPWAW Enhanced FV (Final Version)
FINAL changes.....
Lt Mortar units are Speed 9 in line with the rest of the regular infantry, Med Mortar units (up to 82mm) are Speed 4 to allow them to move a bit more easily, all other mortars are Speed 0 or 1, depending on the size. Lt MG units are Speed 9, Med MGs are Speed 8, able to keep pretty close to the regular infantry, Hvy MGs are Speed 6, AAMGs vary according to their mounting and size. Adjusted all Costs accordingly. While not exactly what was proposed, the change should be acceptable to most. One reason why it was raised was that the UK 3” mortar units in all OOBs had Speeds of 4, while the other 80-82mm mortars were all Speed 1. The tubes and plates were pretty close in weight between the various weapons; no reason why the Brits should get extra movement and the US or Germans not.
