Blazing 88's, I need more info to understand the question. I'd expect the spreadsheet to be correct, but it isn't perfect (it's close, though

Edit 31.12.2004: Version 2.22. is out. Look below.
There are a number of changes, summing up to a total effect that had me wondering if this should have been 3.0 instead of 2.2.
I highly recommend an update if you're using ROQC.
Get it at http://www.roqc.cdgroup.org/
Here's the change list:Snipers added as separate unit category (SN, see 5.3.1) with separate experience rules so that they have a better chance of gaining experience.
Returning casualties modified to take into account the number of flags you hold at the end of the battle.
The ability to use Favor to modify the battle size has been changed into an ability to use Favor to get more support (which you buy in the editor, so it is on top of the QB purchase).
Enemy Force Handicap increased for Meeting Engagements at Normal difficulty and above.
Tree Coverage, Hills and Damage modifiers increased for Raids to give a higher chance of terrain with cover.
Favor calculation for Raids changed to start with negative Favor, which is then offset by accomplishing the mission.
You now get a small number of replacements as a minimum after each battle.
The ability to use pre-made maps has been added, through usage of Pyewackets map conversion tool. A list of maps has been added for easy comparison with the map settings of the current battle, and all these maps are available for download from the ROQC site.
Reduced the chance of an Axis armored force mix in the Finnish region.
You are now required to edit the ammo setting of exploiting units down to 20%.
Options to disable Raid and Retreat battles added.
You can now issue a few commendations to those units that performed exceptionally well in your opinion, providing them with some extra experience points at the cost of a few favor points.
Experience gained from casualties/captured adjusted a bit.
Medal requirements increased ca. 10% to compensate for the two experience additions.

You can use Pyewackets map converter to import an existing map instead of generating a random one. There is currently no help in ROQC for CMAK for finding a proper map, like there is in the CMBB version. Stay tuned for an update.

Yes, there is: Don't copy/paste, use formula/assignment instead. Go to the destination cell, type = and click on the rank you want.Originally posted by SargeFry71:The only issue that I have is that for some reason the rank line selections on the right will not cut and paste into the Excel spreadsheet properly. I get an error message. Is there a fix for this that I can implement?
And thanks for the praise

FM Paul Heinrik, I haven't got a clue where to ask about Real Life and Virtual Reality, but I'm happy that you like ROQC.

Don't worry about the questions, adamo - just keep 'em coming.

Because you might get a download of RL 2.0 by that time
-
When was it you're getting married, Alech
-
Thanks, guys, you make me :blush:
I expect the update to get out in a week or so (hmm, I said that a week ago as well). I just did a beta update. RL takes out a good deal of time at the moment.

39battalion, what can I say
I couldn't (and wouldn't) have said it better myself.
You're in luck, I'm working on an update of the printed charts right now. Drop me an email and I'll notify you when it's ready. It's scheduled to go out in a beta release for a week or so before becoming official, and your input would be much appreciated.

Poor? The bastard ran away instead of using his weapons to suppress the enemy, as he was ordered to. Just because an enemy tank blew the building h was in to pieces. Coward! Just look at how much ammo he has left. It is disgusting.

I just uploaded two modifications to this interface mod to www.cmmods.com
One of them adds colours to the command ability icons, and the other adds colour to most of the unit status texts.

It already did.

Thanks, Jim. Porter is one of "my" testers - I wonder why he didn't tell me of that thread.

Thanks, Jim.
The campaign is in fact also available for CMAK. Changing the link from http://www.roqc.cdgroup.org/CMBB.html to http://www.roqc.cdgroup.org/ would do the trick nicely.

Impressive and interesting

I can't find any font that has a name even remotely similar to that in my install of PSP7, not in PSP5. There is a Century Gothic and a Franklin Gothic Medium.Originally posted by Tarkus:As for the color of the text, I used LettrGoth12 BT - 10 points (8 points for the captured/unarmed BMPs.
Will do if I can find the proper font, though I have yet to see the "unarmed" status in use. When does that apply?I see you changed the 1085 "captured" bmp. You should likewise change the 1086 "unarmed" bmp for consistency.) Feel free to edit as you see fit and post the patch. -
Norway is great, unless you come from Sweden.Originally posted by Tarkus:Now, Norway isn't bad, is it ?

I don't know that story. But the book I read had some interesting tales from the frontline soldiers who survived.

I have a zip file with 54 ASL scenarios made for CMBO. It's 505 Kb and called ALLSCEN.ZIP
I can email it to you if you want. Drop me an email (check my profile).

And they haven't made public what they have even though people are almost screaming to get it and it's mostly finished. Perhaps they're stuck by a non-disclosure agreement. But this is getting off topic. The proper place for that is the forums at Starbase Delta.

There's another big Danish challenge, that may in fact have been done by others and also has - I guess - a similar Norwegian story: Frikorps Danmark. They have an interesting story, documented in several books. I just gave back one I had borrowed. Let me see if I can remember the grand lines (sorry, can't resist
)They were committed as a battalion at Demjansk in summer 42, were pulled out a couple of months later after heavy losses (and commendable behaviour), committed again in the winter southwest of Moscow somewhere, pulled back again after some months and were then disbanded and reformed into Regiment Nordland.
They were all SS volunteers, but initially volunteered with the approval of the Danish government. That changed as the war progressed, and in the end a good deal of the survivors were jailed, using a law implemented after the war, but with effect backwards in time. The judicial decisions made by the Danes after the war were ugly indeed. They even reinstituted the death sentence (for crimes committed before the law was implemented).
It was interesting to read about the level of education these guys got. They were SS, that may have had an efect on this, but in the period before being committed in the winter of 42/43 they had extensive training in how to survive the Russian winter (according to the book I read recently). I guess the Germans had a healthy respect for the Russian winter after 41.

Yes, it says "Tipvognsspærring".
Spærring is a block, presumably on a road or rail line in this case.
Tipvogn is a railcar or truck that you empty by tipping it - it could be a railcar used for carrying gravel, ore or similar stuff that you empty by tipping it sidewise.
My guess is that it refers to the block(s) on the railline.
Hans, what are you using this map for? It looks suspiciously like April 9th 1940, but there wasn't much fighting in Denmark then and I don't remember if there was any fighting in Haderslev.

Stars! 2.7 - a truly great multiplayer game but a bit outdated today. Too bad that the sequel didn't make it.

You need to fit them to a page in the best format - portrait for the battle sheet, landscape for the others (I think).
Microsoft photo editor is in fact my gavourite for easy graphics printing, but you probably don't have that. Irfanview is free and can do it, but it isn't too good on printing. Don't know Print Shop Pro. I'm sure there are others - Windows Paint may even do it if it can load jpeg.
