Changes for RHS x.75

Post by el cid again »

This version - which except for eratta is to be frozen for an extensive period of testing - features:

1) Prosecution of all reported eratta of all types

2) Addition of the PVO 147th IAD (that is, a 4 regiment fighter division of the Soviet Air Defense Air Force)

3) Revision of Chinese land units, including consolidation of artillery into 6 groups, elimination of duplicated units,
designation of local troops by name, and the addition of a number of absent Cavalry "corps" (divisions?) and various sizes of "armies" (jun in Chinese - corps if you prefer). We will stay with the usage of terms that indicate the size of the formation (field army = 2 divisions; group army or route army = 3 divisions).

4) Revision of existing USN LSTs, including replacement of those never in PTO with those that were, designation of point of arrival in theater, and date of entry into theater. A significant number of vessels will appear 10 to 14 months sooner - which may matter more than adding a few more units late in the war. The sheer size of the US LST force is simply amazing.

5) Pointers set for the new plane art filmstrips for the new plane types from the revision already released. We are mainly waiting for the last of these from Cobra to release. Possibly tomorrow.

This is the time to point out erratta or suggested changes. I plan to ask for a final round of utility error checking - so there will be a x.751 - unless there is nothing to fix. While that occurs I will do the final Level 5 and 6 pwhex files, bringing them in line with Level 7 pwhex development. This is merely a set of minor enhancements (adding land etc) or corrections (communications codes, mismatched hex sides).

There was a Level 7 unit in Level 6 - and it sits in the sea.

Level 6 is easy to upload - packaging wise.

So I am releasing 6.742 to preview 6.75 level changes - but the plane art for RTAF is still set to Japanese plane art - and some leader eratta is not folded in.
