  1. Sorry to interrupt, but quick question: What grid mod are you using? It looks like RocketMan's grid, but without the contrast. I really prefer his grid design, but don't use it because I can't stand the high contrast on terrain elevations. You have a version without it?
  2. Ugh... after reading this post I decided to go and try your training scenarios as well. All it's taught me so far, is that apparently I've been playing this game all wrong for years... I'm having considerable trouble with training #110, specifically. Your advice above seems to be the answer I needed, the only problem is how to actually implement it. Keeping the troops spread out indeed helps greatly, but it's almost impossible to keep your HQ near all the troops doing this. And since you're forced to work with only Greens, I'm constantly finding myself in situations where I need a unit to advance and all I can do is 'move' it. Keeping them still on overwatch as an alternative is almost useless. (Maybe use Area Fire?) The fine line between 'spread out', 'overwatch', and 'out of command' is extremely difficult for me to get right with these Greens. This whole 100 series debacle is making me want to stop playing entirely, out of frustration : / All I can keep thinking is... "My Kingdom for a Puma."

  3. For the sake of convenience, I've hosted these for Celozzi. Anyone else who wants them can get them here: Clicky -- Kornstalx
  4. Yeah yeah I know this should prolly go in AAR, but I mean, holy crap! QB with everthing but fitness set to random vs AI. Experience etc all random too. I got stuck with regular troops, in a July Northern Allied Assault with no snow, mid day, rural map with one road, moderate trees, and it was pretty flat. Ended up being (from what I can tell) a German Infantry combined arms, vs. an Allied Mechanized No armor. Date was random too; July 43. Oh, and 800 pts. I bought 2 tanks. Both PIVh's. 1x 75mm AT PB, 2x Wooden MG bunks. a BUNCH of barbed wire... After this experience I've learned the benifits of barbed wire! Place it in treelines along avenues of advance, and put MG/PB's behind them to rape the inf trying to cross sneakily. It was amazing. I mean *LOOK* at this casualty rate! only one squad made it even close to my Mger, and it was the ruskie battalion HQ Pwnage! 5 casualties vs. 214 casualties. (w00t) Anyone else here use barbed wire in defense? or do you defenders only favor mines? --Kornstalx (first post, but I read this forum everyday) :cool:
