loggy Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Bug: German SdKfz 251/1 Halftrack will only load 8 soldiers of a squad leaving the others out.. The SdKfz 251/1 series was designed to carry 12 Soldiers (Squad of 10 and a crew of 2). See the following reference on this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SdKfz_251 I can find no way to fix this.

hejhog Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Here's a workaround that can make the 251 work for you, but you have to use the mission editor. first, put in a 251, and leave the crew in it. second, add a staff squad (they're 6 guys) and edit the squad how you'd like. third, make sure you've got the placeholders and permissions to allow both the 251's and the squads. 251's fall under the scout car slot. these staff squads are small however, and lack depth- you lose a couple of guys and they're pretty combat ineffective. great when used with tanks, to both mop up and maintain security. this worked for me, and I really have fun with it.

you1 Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 THx hejhog being looking for a way, simple but the best, I'm going to try that, it's taking time to get comfortable with the editor, Really looks like you can have fun with it Just for fun put a KV2 in at kurst didn't last long. http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u176/youonebucket/grab_2007_4_30_0_8_27_546.jpg Good gaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hejhog Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 no problem, glad to help. the gunner on the 251 needs a lot of scouting and gunner experience to be worth a crap tho. i redid the german campaign and included four sets of the units above (4 spw, 4 staff squad) and they really do good in support of tanks. on their own... not so good. also, a lot of suppression (heh) to the enemy helps when dismounting, or it's just guy jumps out, gets shot. next guy jumps out, gets shot. rinse and repeat.
