Hans Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 I would like to design an operation where two sides start in the MIDDLE of the map, and then the sides will shift backwards and forwards depending on the fates of war. However I've noticed you can only seem to start at one end(West east south or north) Is there a clever way around this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vergeltungswaffe Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 Well, you might want to make it a static op, ie, the map won't move, but make it huuuge so that either side has plenty of room to retreat from the centrally located setup zones as the fortunes of war favor/disfavor them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snorri Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 yep, V-Waffe is right, to reach your goal: make a static map, remind that you chose only the height/length(depend which directions N-S, W-O) and so don`t make it too big, BECAUSE, both former "starting-positions-at-map-end" must be inbound..(as follows:) i tried what you want, but had to drop the idea, cause my map was too big, so i could only see half the planned fighting area in the middle of map...but for you, to place a map that moves both directions..in whole-battle-turns, isn`t possible as far as i think(cm wasn`t made for this, and this high-mobile-movement battle without clear difference between offence and defence is as i know the way of fighting of our times..not WWII )[PzDiv haben auch nen Marschbefehl,..eigentlich..hehe..Nachts um halb eins..!] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted February 7, 2003 Author Share Posted February 7, 2003 Danke, fur ihren gedanken As I understand your comments your saying an operation will not work in this way and only way to do this is a static battle? I was afraid of that. I tried some experiments and it didn't seem to work. Thanks for your expertise. Hans 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamingknives Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 You could always 'rig' the first battle of an operation. i.e. give the attackers alot of units and the defenders only a few, so the attackers make a great deal of head way before defending reserves cancel out the advantage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted February 9, 2003 Author Share Posted February 9, 2003 Thanks for the idea I considered that but wanted an equal tussle, however that HAS sparked a compromise idea, will experiment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
