That was great, thanks guys!
-
Cool, that's nice to know.

YOU KNOW THAT THE EASY OPTION HERE IS TO JUST PRINT IT OUT FROM THE PDF FILE, IT MAKES NICE 8x11 SHEETS WITH NICE CLEAR COLORS ON WHITE PAPER OR WHATEVER YOU WANT.
So the manual is not the best color choices, stop complaining, I am impressed they even provided one at all, not many computer games come with them these days because of printing cost, so keep it up and you all might never see a printed manual from Battlefront again.
Yes, how dare anyone complain! Slysniper is satisfied, and that should be the end it!

Thanks leadmeister, nice work. But this don't help the printed manual, which I paid extra for not having to print my own. I know, it's the printers fault.

Well said Dragotin. They do tend too shift the blame.

The movie wasn't supposed to be accurate. It was meant to show the flow and feel of the battle, stressing the time and petrol situation. The battles are hypothetical. They tried to give you a "feel" for the campaign, not a historical account. Robert Shaw, in his black panzer uniform, is cool!

You can, if you make a copy of the original campaign and amend it to add a Fortress.
To do this, open up the editor, open up the relevant campaign, choose File and Save As. Give the campaign a new name. It will then take a few minutes to make a copy, and now you can add a Fortress.
When you hit Save the editor will ask you to update the scripts. This is essential for the campaign to run properly.
Once done, close the editor and you can now play!
Wow, man,I just play them, I don't know what makes them run!
Someday, when I feel adventerous, I'll have to try this.
Thanks Bill.

I saw "steel box". I would have noticed "steelbook" because I wouldn't know what that was. This was at the very beginning of preorder, if it was changed later,of course I would not have noticed. Or I just saw what I wanted to see.
-
vonRocco: fraud? Really? You paid 5$ extra for this over the ddownload, 5$! BFC must be rolling around in all the extra cash they made from the gullible pre-orderers. Pull your head in mate. When it rains it rains, it doesn't mean the world is out to get you.
Will you read my post more carefully before you make a dumb comment. I never called it fraud.I'm not even upset, just telling it like it is.
-
The put up a video of the BOX, I don't see how this is misleading in any way.
How do you tell from a video picture? It could be paper mache,shiny plastic,tin, or anything else in a picture! They used the word "Steel", not me.
-
Leadmeister is right. I won't go as far as calling it fraud, but it definitely was misleading advertising. It's like having one microgram of gold in a coin,and calling it a "gold coin". Who had the brilliant idea of putting tiny tan letters on tan pages? The game itself is fine, but this sort of stuff will keep me away from future preorders and taking their word for anything.

How about "homeland"?
Homeland was OK until my government used it for their latest gestapo..err, police force. But I guess Homeland security sounds better than Fatherland security!
Sorry, I didn't mean to turn political, or hijack the thread.
I just was curious how some countries are referred too in the "feminine" while others are "masculine". -
Why are some "fatherlands" and others "motherlands"?
-
I have only played the AI so all I can say is the allied AI could sure use the fortresses, but a German AI will not be able to face them. Now I would assume a human can make much better use of the existing terrain. Too bad we can't have the forts in for a computer controlled France, and out for a computer controlled Germany.

I don't know if anything should be adjusted at all. This is just my opinion but I can see many reasons why industry could be delayed in real life, for months or even years. There could be "red tape", labor problems, factory conversions, raw materials, tranport new equipment, etc. No one in real life can guarantee that with x amount of money, they can get an arms factory up by some deadline, unless the deadline is extremely long. Delays always happen. I've had games both ways,Sometimes I drop a chit in some research and the next turn it advances, other times I wait years! It's all part of the game! Such is war.
-
Wow Bill, where are the Huns on western front? That is one thin line.
-
Great thread, I have had every single one of these things happen to me!
-
Nice! Maybe I'll learn something.
-
Try turning the trees off. You can see the breaks much easier.
-
Buying both was the only option for me. I won't go into which is better, that is ridiculous. They are both good and well worth the money.
-
Which other east front game is this?
Please don't let it remain nameless unless we're infringing forum rules by mentioning any other game company/product.
Usually I'm up to speed with new stuff coming out, but you've taken me by surprise.
I'm pretty sure it's not Achtung Panzer: Op. Star, because this seems to be dead.
Please do tell!

Presumably, they pass through unspotted ships so the player doing it cannot use it for free scouting for his own active forces to follow up with. I don't know about unspotted neutral ships but spotted neutrals cannot be passed through.
There is an additional annoyance with this. You know those times when you run into an unspotted enemy ship and then are not allowed to attack? Aligned neutral ships like Turkey's can do that to Entente shipping. My opponent had an unspotted Turkish neutral ship parked right next to a spotted Austrian one and when I moved to finish the Austrian ship off, the Turkish unit zapped me and no attack was possible. That definitely should not be allowed under any circumstances.
Ok, now I got it. Unspotted is the point I missed, Thanks. I feel your original idea is best, The turkish navy should stay off the map till war is declared. That is probably the easiest solution.

Any morning you wake up too, is a "great" morning!

Hello, that's what I run it on, and I never had a problem.
