I am playing this scenario for the first time as the Germans against the Soviet AI. The Combat Chart is only showing the German units both when attacking and defending. No attacking or defending Soviet units are displayed. All other scenarios I have played show the attackers and defenders in the Combat Chart.

Is this an intended "feature" of this scenario? Have I inadvertently messed up a setting? Or is this bug?

Thank you for your assistance.

I'm seeing the same thing with that scenario. I'll have to troubleshoot it.

Thank you for you help.

Also, I want to take the opportunity to thank you for all you've done to help TOAW remain a thriving program over all these years. I am sure it has not been easy.

Alright. The issue is that the name of the second force is " Soviet". Note the space at the front of the name. The Combat Chart routine clips spaces from the Force Names on the Combat Report, to enable it to find just those names in the report. It doesn't do that to the Force Name to search for. I don't think this is a characteristic that the program should have to handle and I'm not going to issue a fix. The designer of that scenario needs to delete that spurious space in his Force Name. (Players can do that too, if they want to get a head start). I made such an edit and both forces then were shown in the Chart.
