Strategy Guide

Post by kneecaps »

Hi,
I keep seeing references to a HttR strategy guide, but I can't find the ACTUAL guide. I'm certain its linked somewhere and I'm just missing it but could somebody put me out of my misery and point me to it?

Thanks

Thanks!

How useful is the guide if you understand what different weapons are best used for and how forces are organised?

The guide is 189 pages.

The chapter entitled "Weapons and Equipment" takes about 17 pages and add another 10 pages discussing the basics of ground combat weapons. About 50% of the guide is devoted to a historical analysis of Market Garden. The same analysis which I believe was included in the RDOA manual (in case, you already have RDOA).

The non-historical portion was written by Steve Long, former player, beta-tester, and finally PG scenario designer. He did a pretty good job with it. (Yours truly had a little input here and there too.)

I hope that helps.

Thanks that is rather helpful! If I need some more input than in the manual and tutorials i'll order this for sure!
