Size of OOB?

The team behind the award-winning game Advanced Tactics is back with a new and improved game engine that focuses on the decisive early days of World War II! Decisive Campaigns: The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris is the first in an innovative series of operational World War II wargames that also include a strategic element. The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris simulates Germany’s military successes in Poland and France in 1939 and 1940 (including also a hypothetical “Sea Lion” invasion of Great Britain).

Size of OOB?

Post by Tordan69 »

Hi guys, I´ve seen threads where people have expressed a wish for smaller scenarios, i.e. less amount of units to handle. I understand the main reason is to cut down the time needed to play a turn, otherwise know as balancing game-time vs wife-time.

About how many units do the current scenarios contain? Approximately how long does a turn take? I know that the second answer can vary wildly, but just a ballpark figure.

Hi,

The amount of units varies depending on the scenario. Ballpark about 100 units since you are moving regiments.
A turn can take 1 hour or more once there is a lot of combat going on.

THere are group move commands,so that a complete division can be moved together. So while a turn can take some time, it takes the longest when there is action.The less interesting moving units to the frontline is speeded up by the group move.
