Mikester Posted June 21, 2000 Share Posted June 21, 2000 BTS, Wasn't sure where to post this so it ended up here. I'm sitting here in setup mode of an operation right now. Can't see any victory flags. Is this the way it's supposed to work? Also, if I'm remembering correctly the first turn I plotted in operation last night (it was late maybe I was half asleep) I couldn't see the victory flags durning turn 1 plot either? How am I supposed to know where the victory flags are in the operation??? Mikester out. PS: Tried looking in the manual under Operation and Victory / Victory Flag. Didn't seem to see any explanation for the above [This message has been edited by Mikester (edited 06-20-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest *Captain Foobar* Posted June 21, 2000 Share Posted June 21, 2000 Mikester... I was under the impression that operations will not be gauged by Victory Locations/Flags... And that is actually one of the exciting things to me. It means that YOU decide what is an important objective to take, as it serves to advance your goals in the op. I might be wrong here, but thats what I recall being said... Now just put that Sherman in drive, and dont stop until you get to Berlin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikester Posted June 21, 2000 Author Share Posted June 21, 2000 Foobar, Huh. Ok, I was wondering since I wanted to know how to set up my attack. But I guess I can see some "validity" to not having VF's in an op. But if there arn't any, how is the victory level determined when the op is over? Strictly by casualties and percentage of map held? Or do I have to drive the other player completely off the map to actually "win"??? Mikester out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MantaRay Posted June 21, 2000 Share Posted June 21, 2000 Operations I don't think have Victory flags. It is more of a space you control type of game.

Mikester Posted June 21, 2000 Author Share Posted June 21, 2000 Rob/1, Don't take this the wrong way, but I see absolutely nothing wrong with posting this here. Go read the fine print under the headings for new forums. The scenario one refers to stuff that is scenario specific, like about such and such battle. Yeah I could have put this over there, but decided not to since this isn't scenario specific. SF, Only got the game yesterday and havn't had a chance to even start looking at the manual until tonight. Thanks much for the page reference. Exactly what I was looking for. It's interesting that the terms operation and victory flags didn't lead me to this. Look up operation in the index and it refers you to page 93. But that section ends on p.95 and switches to different topic. Look up victory flags and it takes you to p. 114. Guess I should have average the two and it would have gotten me to p. 103.5, eh? Later all. Mikester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
