RE: Red Tide Scenario 1 Feedback

Found the sub, banged away with sonar and it came to the surface, time eventually ran out. Nothing else happened.

Mission 1 Invasion fuel planning

Can anyone tell me what the a/c loadout modifiers are for fuel consumption? The burn rate value in the database only gives a base value for a clean configuration. Planning is a bit tricky without it and not very realistic either.

This is a workaround, but it can hardly be the solution! I hope we get a fixed version of the file soon.

RE: Graphical update in the works?

A "remastered" edition with a new front end is definitely in order (DOS is dead!). No need to redo the whole game from scratch. Replace the large bitmaps with vector gfx, so it's zoomable and smooth with no pixelation. And needs much less memory.

RE: 3M14 Klub

I didn't mean to criticize the work (far from it!) but wanted to know how this stuff works, especially when there are such huge swings in particular data.

RE: 3M14 Klub

That's why I'm asking! I'm fairly new to CMANO and I want to know what I can expect from the DB. I don't expect precise data for the most modern systems but that this particular system was off by a factor of 10 surprised me.

Apparently the DB authors did until recently! Which begs the question how reliable the DB information is.

RE: 3M14 Klub

A factor of ten is quite a bit. But by 'independent' I mean in the scientific sense, not a source of a faction that is involved in an ongoing war. If that's even possible. I don't know.

RE: AGEOD Games and Leberwurst

<t> I agree, although I made that experience with BOA already. I don't necessarily agree on the AI, though, because it's got that whack-a-mole feel and doesn't seem to be affected by cohesion as much. But in PBEM....wow! Haven't done that in ages btw. Anyway, the game mechanics are hitting a sweet s...

Ah, thanks! After being away from the game for a couple of years it seems like I'm back to square one again.

RE: Vyazma pocket woes

<r> It didn't occur to me to utilize the zones of control in this way. What I had tried to do was to stick closer to the historical setup. That resulted in Sov divs bound for Berlin after turn 2! [X(] But now I gave a wider berth and also didn't try to close the pocket on turn 1. I guess I'm getting...

RE: Vyazma pocket woes

<t> Due to time constraints I play WITE only once in a while and stick to small scenarios. I didn't have any issues so far, but this one made me scratching my head! I can build up a line of units (Pz and mot, obviously) just west of Vyazma. I have tried a rather solid line (1_0_1_0), and even some c...

Vyazma pocket woes

<t> Hello!<br/> <br/> I've tried to recreate the Vyazma pocket at the start of of Operation Typhoon (1.08 beta). I've tested both the Typhoon scenario and the Moscow 41'-42' scenario several times. In both cases I was unable to close the pocket. Instead I found my Pz corps surrounded by Soviet units...

If only they'd release the source code! Coding a game like BTR from scratch would probably take years. Well, for me anyway.

<t> It took me the whole evening yesterday. The game was registered at Slitherine, but didn't show up in the members area even though it was merged with Slitherine. Some games showed up, others didn't. I did several attempts to merge it again, and after several hours WITE along with some others show...
