I would like to try an experimental type of game with me playing Soviets and someone else Germans. SPH2H, Dec 1944, C&C On.

This will be a scenario which bypasses the normal purchase system. Historic ratings remain in effect.

All I will say at this point is that you will command a combined armour/infantry force on an unusual large map (100x80). You get to choose your AFVs and their ammo loadouts.

More details if I get a taker :)

Like I said this is highly experimental; vaguely inspired by the tank fight games. The basic idea is to see who can choose and use armour (and ammo) best but in a combined arms environment. Another aim is to make every unit "precious".

Salient points:

[list]

Any tank may be "purchased" but the more expensive ones get reduced ammo loadouts.

The map is totally unrealistic and symmetrical :eek:

It is also not very vehicle friendly in places.

Vehicle breakdowns is On but Weapon Breakdowns is Off

Both sides have roughly symmetrical forces i.e. 9 AFVs and 3 platoons of infantry (with transport).

The infantry is generic i.e. no elites and no squad AT weapons except grenades.

However each platoon does get an expanded Inf-AT team to compensate.

3 of the AFVs (the defence - TDs) are restricted as to where they can go by the map.

The other AFVs may accompany the infantry on their quest to capture the objectives.

There is no arty - if you want to pound the grunts with HE you'll have to get your tanks to do it.

There is no infantry smoke. Again you must get your tanks to provide this function.

The Searching parameter is set to 50%. This ameliorates the infantry "hiding" problem a bit and is going to be the new SPH2H default anyway.
[/list]

If you're concerned about playing C&C On all I can say is that a) all units have pre-assigned sensible objectives and b) in brief play-testing I only had to re-assign objectives once in 20 turns.
