Rugens -> What Are The Chances ? (7/12/2007 12:26:50 AM)
Was curious ask if there is a chance the max number of units and formations may be increased in a future update?

And while you're at it change the max size of maps to 1000x1000, I wanna make a 1km/hex map of South Vietnam [:D]

WW2 Europe at divisional scale, that would be the greatest scenario. Of course, map size needs to increase as well.

Carrier pigeons

I suppose one could impose an Aide-de-camp system by house rule. It would be a very complicated house rule, of course.

So, what ARE the chances for increased number of units per force above the current limit of 2000?[&:]

And that one, I'm keeping under my hat for the moment...[;)]

Rugens -> RE: What Are The Chances ? (7/17/2007 5:30:46 PM)
Ok, I've got to ask. Is there an OAOW IV really in the future. BTW, my original question was for not only greater than the 2,000 units but also greater than the 400 formations. I am trying to modify St�phane's wonderful "Vietnam Combat Operations" (with his permission) to be a game covering the length of the war. There are a number of roadblocks but particularly the number of formations is difficult to work around because of the way OAOW III works.

Since this thread has gotten WAAAAAY off topic, I gotta ask White Rabbit... What's in Moro Gulf, SW of Mindanao (6N 128E)? And hill-top bonfires apparently were able to notify all of New Zealand of the attack on Gondor! Nice duty, that, sitting in the snow with a bonfire you dare not light...
