First of all, I started a new generated campaign. Wow what a map! Now maybe this is patch related or maybe just the difference between the WWII campaing and a generated one, but, in my previous wwII campaign, the maps hadn't been particularly interesting. This one, has a giant city in the middle of it, interestingly broken into two sub-cities, with about a 5-7 hex E-W swath of clear terrain seperating them. Rivers and bridges galore. Air Power - Those damn germans. Got bombed by a JU, not only kiled everything they dropped bombs on, (KV2a, infantry, etc.), but surrounding units also took casualties, to the extent that two neighboring squads dispersed.... Atty - Left a HMG sitting on a bridge. 150 lands and...bridge destroyed, HMG destroyed. Not sure which came first the HMG getting hit or the bridge going down, but it bummed me out... Also, saw a HMG at about 15 hexes or so KILL a PSW-222. Never seen that before, although I would think that's a rare thing, so it might have happened in vers. 1.0 as well. but it was on the second turn of my first ver 2 game, so I was like, "FAR OUT!!! Love this patch!" anyway, Kudos to the team, get some rest... then get to work on version 3.0

Did you code mortars to break on dropping. I did a Brits para drop. One of my mortar teams has survived but the mortar was destroyed. Nothing fired at the mortar team before, during or after the drop. Can I get a repair crew? troopie

Clumsy bloke, that Corporal Thomas. Here, my boy, gather up those pieces. That's a good lad. Get to it Corporal!... First I heard of it, but I saw a tank go in reverse today. I know Paul V and Michael Wood say it is impossible, but this is the third time I've seen it, with or without medication

Yes Windo, the campaign and battle generator maps have been extensively reworked by Michael Wood. Glad you saw the improvement. Wild Bill ------------------ In Arduis Fidelis Wild Bill Wilder Coordinator, Scenario Design Matrix Games
