jim crowley Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 If these have previously been covered I apologise. Does ToW include on-board, indirect fire, particularly mortars? Do all forces have to be purchased or can a scenario specify exactly what the player has? Has the engagement-range issue been answered yet?

Markus86 Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 In the russian Forum of 1C was said by Fil (belonging to the 1C team) that mortars won't be in the first release. They had it in in the beginning but took it out. But I don't know if this is still up to date. Because of the map sizes I'm not sure if there will be onboard artillery. But I think, it was confirmed, that you can order guns/tanks to indirect fire at points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuuSaR Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Release as game version or release as later addon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megakill Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 You can force units to indirect fire. Units can be "purchesed" but some are "blocked" depending on scenario of the battle. This varies per mission. But you can't take 10 Tigers into infantry only battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citizen Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I hope that the scenario briefings don't call out "All Infantry Battle" in the intro. I want to be surprised. If I can't buy armor for a battle, I don't want to know with 100% certainty that my opponent can't buy armor, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steiner14 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 That's an important point IMO, that not too much information is given away by briefings and interface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 No worries, the missions are sometimes designed with way more surprises than you can handle (I write this after having been handed my pants by the AI in a fierce counterattack in a mission I played yesterday) Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
