RE: Tiller Games Purchased

<t> I do sincerely hope that somewhere in the pipeline there are titles simulating the great European conflicts of 1859, 1866, and 1870-71.<br/> I know but a single title that covered this period, which - compared to the scale of the battles and their importance to the history of the continent, - ma...

RE: Bombing and artillery targeting

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: StreetF16<br/> <br/> Thanks, that helps a bit. But what I'm really after is a way to specify target priority for air attacks. I don't see any way, for example, to target an SA-6 first then go after the remaining ground units on the hex. Or hit all the arty first, b...

RE: Animation delay

Well. Switching "nodelay" on/off, setting the animation movement timer to various values nor hitting the spacebar does not seem to have any effect on animations.

hitting spacebar only switches unit visibility on/off.

Animation delay

Dear All,

in old TOAW III one could switch off movement animations completely, thus saving a lot of time when moving large stacks. How one does that in TOAW IV? I don't have the steam version.

RE: Infantry holding in urban terrain

<r> Well, the infantry in question are platoons of Mech Infantry, armed with M72s and a Dragoon section. I set them to "hold" during deployment, before the game starts. The hex is "dense urban", offering 90% cover. Infantry is within command range, readiness around 90%, and seemingly dismounted.<br/...

Infantry holding in urban terrain

<t> Hi All!<br/> <br/> I am looking for some hints. I am playing the Defence of Weser Crossing scenario, and naturally, seeing all these city hexes, I put my infantry units deep within the town, expecting it to be most effective against massed Soviet armour. To my surprise, they prove to be useless....

RE: Full Screen and font size

Full Screen and font size

I have a problem with fullscreen mode - toggling it on messes up the font size in the game. I am using a 1080p laptop on Windows10. Any hints would be appreciated!

RE: TOAW IV features

<t> And one more - an ability to select a specific unit for artillery or aerial bombardment. One might want to use their artillery or aircraft to target eg. only enemy artillery or hqs, not spread the firepower evenly through the whole stack. I am not sure whether it has not been already addressed s...
