Re: WEGO World War II: Stalingrad - v1.0.6 Beta Update

Yup, we are on track for that. Tx for the interest in my scenarios :) All of them look intriguing but that you actually included two American Civil War campaigns is absolutely insane! I am just getting into the ACW history, so it couldn't be a better timing. For now, I am still mostly playing warga...

Re: WEGO World War II: Stalingrad - v1.0.6 Beta Update

Always glad to hear about AI improvements. And that the official patch is coming along; after all that's when Governato will release his custom scenarios as well! Now a tiny bit of sale discount (for which I am waiting 2 months already) would be nice, and I will finally give this game a try! (Curiou...

PBEM opponent wanted (mid to large scenario size; side NATO or WP)

Hello there, I've been meaning to get into PBEM for quite some time now and I think FS: Southern Storm is the perfect game to do so because of its kinda WEGO system which reduces the overall time needed to finish a match (compared to the Panzer Campaigns, e.g.). I am proficient in both playing NATO ...

Re: How is WEGO implemented in this game?

Hopefully, in the future, we can have the game work over the network/internet for a more live game along with the PBEM option. Even with that, players will have periods of downtime while the other does inputs. There is no real way to avoid that with our setup. I am still dreaming about a proper tur...

Re: Sale soon?

I could be wrong but I dont think I have ever seen it on sale. My hunch is it's because it's not on Steam and they want to focus sales that can also generate income on Steam. Hopefully I am wrong on this. P.S. Get this on Steam already :) You are awfully wrong. The Campaign Series (the trilogy, Vie...

Re: Evacuate wounded

I much rather you and your team spent your calories and sanity getting the DLC done for this game that covers 1968 and beyond! 8-) And let's not forget scripted missions for Middle East + a DLC for Middle East, then CS Cold War and CS Eastern Front 1939-41 --- all of them among my most anticipated ...

Re: Amphibious units can't cross canals?

We have a low-priority feature request in our tracking system to help better show fog/low ceiling on the map and on the panel. Not sure when/if we get to it. Definitively keep it low priority. After all, it was my own brain that wasn't able to figure out that the "visibility" is actually ...

Re: Amphibious units can't cross canals?

I've found that often certain procedures must be followed to force a unit to use its amphibious capability rather than seeking a bridge crossing. [...] I just wanted to thank you again. With your tips I finally was able to 'force' my units to cross the canal. It makes sense that the AI chooses wayp...

Re: Amphibious units can't cross canals?

60m is the cloud ceiling. Right above that where it says visibility 5500 is the visibility. I don't think the 5500m takes into account the fog though. If you forget, the mouse over tooltip is there to remind you: I see! That solves a lot of mental problems, haha. And especially clears up why there ...

Re: Amphibious units can't cross canals?

Maybe this helps: visibility is how far unit can see optically. The sun up and 80% illumination means that it is dawn, almost day (but not that it is sunny or clear). Wind is minimal, temperature is very low, which typically means ground level morning fog, and poor visibility. Light snow just makes...

Re: Amphibious units can't cross canals?

I've found that often certain procedures must be followed to force a unit to use its amphibious capability rather than seeking a bridge crossing. To cross a major river, at least one waypoint should be in a full water hex at the intended amphibious crossing location. Other waypoints may also be req...

Re: Amphibious units can't cross canals?

I am very curious then why I wasn't able to cross the Main-Donau-Kanal nowhere in the "High Sticking" scenario. I also had some other gripes with that mission: visibility stayed at 60m even after sunup which was very odd. Yes, there is light snow involved but light snow shouldn't limit vis...

Amphibious units can't cross canals?

Am I correct to understand that amphibious units can't cross canals? Assuming that there are no natural entries for the vehicles into the water?

Re: Are other seasons planned? Or other regions (with DLCs)?

May I just reiterate how nice graphically modeled tiles would be when it comes to weather? Not only when it comes to snow in the wintertime but also when it comes to the other two European seasons, that is spring (muddy) and autumn (brownish and colorful trees). One could argue, of course, that to g...

[...] Then we caught the WEGOWW2 as a system TRUTH. A long term commitment to compete with The Operational Art of War and Panzer Campaigns! How do we accomplish this? You need a standard game engine.

These are both fine WEGO games, no reason to pass and the price is not high at all, especially since it 45% off! I have heard these complaints about refunds and high priced games, but they are always from Steam only gamers prob in the 20-30 year old bracket. When I purchased WITE2 for $79 it was st...

Re: Are other seasons planned? Or other regions (with DLCs)?

I'm pretty sure there aren't any snow maps currently in the game, but we can do season renders of the maps and, at some point in the future, get those working in the game with seasons. As noted above, we have a DLC coming early next year and others in work. We would also like to do game engines for...
