Right, I've got that part (purchase formation delete process), the missing piece is the loss of the ability to highlight over what I'm hand picking and see some cursory data about the units. And I'm aware of the pricing discrepancies caused by formation purchase vs individual, just another element of the interface in my opinion working against the way I want to interact with it, which is hand pick what I want.

Thanks, I'll look for that. I'll admit the way I use the purchase screen may not be optimal, I don't tend to think of it in terms of formations, yet it really wants me to. What I'm looking to do is hand pick what I want. My impression of the interface is it wants to resist my efforts to do that.

Ah, thanks for the response, appreciate it. Well, that's a shame then. Had a feeling that was the answer though, hopefully they'll get it back in eventually, I found it quite useful.

Apologize for resurrecting an old one, but I've got a question related to this thread. I've only been playing scenarios in PBEM w/ CMBN, but started up a QB today. I must be missing something because there are no specs on the units in the purchase screen that I can see, in CM1 series I could highlight a unit and get a cursory bit of info, one piece in particular regarding the gun on a tank (say 75 vs 76) was rather helpful for example. Is this gone or I'm missing how to bring it up in the interface, any help greatly appreciated. Otherwise it would appear I'm forced to look each one up in the manual (yikes) or memorize specs (more yikes).

Bravo!!! I signed up at FGM just to test'em when they get to that stage.

If you let Redwolf troll you, you've only yourself to blame.

Ah yes, you're right, I just looked them up. You're right, no real explanation given, and the drop down command for all of them is the same. Cool, thx P.S. Didn't get gmail to function, do both users have to be on gmail for it to work?

Perhaps my question wasn't sufficiently detailed enough, I'll try w/o posting a picture of the screen of H2H to describe what I'm seeing under "other info". In the current game I'm playing I see the following icons: 1. one of drop box (it's my turn, so it seems plausible this is to inform me I have a turn, I guess) 2. the H2H icon itself, which you can right click on for some options (but then you can do that to all three icons I have under this menu heading) 3. a circle with an exclamation point in it

Is there a posting that explains what all the icons mean under "other info"?

Might want to take this over to the tech support forum is my guess.

Heck, I'd be happy if Battlefront just implemented an option you could check or un-check in the difficulty setting for iron man the way most games conceive of the meaning by which you only have one save for the entire battle and/or campaign. No save scumming your way through. When all decisions are final, even just that one additional piece to the puzzle makes the engagement harder. And of course you can do this yourself, the setting is for the weak willed like me.

your OS will take control of you...

Borrow from other game devs, institute an option in SP you can turn on or off for iron man. Once selected there will be only one save file for the duration of the battle or campaign, no turning back, second guessing or suffering a momentary lapse of willpower.

My aren't you delicate.

In CM, a "combatant" has the defining attribute of one busily running away getting shot in the back for their trouble.

The amount of disinformation threads like this engender never fails to amuse.

Or because no one has implemented fog in games using such tables in a decade?

Oh, and sorry for the minor hijacking, was just being amused by dasmorbo, I'd take you up on that game, but work is tying me up too much at the moment, hate it when RL interferes with gaming. GL finding a game, just keep the thread alive and someone will take you up on it!

The gift that keeps on giving. hahah

A wiki, god bless you for that laugh.

There's no strategy/tactics forum for this one either, strangely enough. If you're to judge by actions, one would conclude this is intentional. In which case, posting up just about anything whatsoever concerning Normandy in this forum is fair game, with the possible exception of tech support, since there actually is a forum for that.

Ah, I like your description a bit better. I can remember split, acquire, load.

Well, this went about as well as you'd expect given the tone of the original thread that started this engagement between these two combatants. Poor form on both sides really, one bailing on the game, the other coming to tattle in the forum. Both just need to walk away at this point.

Somehow that doesn't feel like it's sufficiently complicated.

Thank you good sir. The only versions I found for download anywhere were quite old versions.
