Matrix Games Forums

I'm looking for a game that will track individual losses. For example, lets say there is a German air raid. Will the game let me know how many and what kinds of aircraft were lost for every fight/mission?

Also, are the units, for example and tank, a representative of the actual unit? A PzIII unit has actual PzIII in that unit or is it just the icon to represent tanks in that unit.

Hope this makes sense?

Thanks!

No on all counts.

COTA or Conquest of the Aegean keeps track of losses of your men and equipment. Battles are fought at the company/platoon level organized into battalions and brigades. Its a great game and I highly recommend it

You wont get an actual report telling you how many you lost, just telling you what you have left as the battle rages on and a final report telling you what you have left. If I where to improve upon COTA I would add a feature that tracks what units inflicted what kind of damage on enemy units and at the end of the battle a more detailed analysis of what I lost compared to what I started with.

I think some of the John Tiller's games track individual losses as well, the panzer campaigns was recommended to me but I still have yet to purchase it

Hope this helps.

You are making a mistake in the assessment of the game's scale. This depicts European Theatre, if a given unit has e.g. 500 hundred tanks of different types, how can this tracked? That would be tedious...
