Named units?

The development team behind the award-winning games Decisive Campaigns: From Warsaw To Paris and Advanced Tactics is back with a new and improved game engine that focuses on the decisive year and theater of World War II! Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue simulates the German drive to Stalingrad and into the Caucasus of the summer of 1942, as well as its May preludes (2nd Kharkov offensive, Operation Trappenjagd) and also the Soviet winter counter-offensive (Operation Uranus) that ended with the encirclement of 6th Army in Stalingrad and the destruction of the axis minor armies. With many improvements including the PBEM++ system, this is a release to watch for wargamers!

Named units?

Post by wodin »

Is there anyway we can actually give the regiments their proper name\regiment number?

Thanks

Hi Wodin,

Not really. The engine was designed for giving all subunits of a division the same name.

However you can click on the name of a unit when in play to overrule this. But this is just meant for occasional name changes when in play.

You could rename all the units on the map in the editor (unit submenu) but when you'll start receiving replacements or resurrecting lost regiments the new units will all have the same name as their division once more.

Best regards,
Vic

OK no worries..just when you read books that cover certain regiments of a division you want to see them in a game. Reading the superb Into Oblivion by Jason D Marks at the moment which follows the 385 division and it's regiments (though mainly concentrates on the divisions pioneer battalion)
