Heh.  This is how threads get bent out of shape.  I agree with you guys.  Honest. 

I chose the title of this thread 'Observations' because I didn't want things to be taken as a criticism.  But, due to misreadings and misunderstandings (mostly on my end), the thread took on a whole different tone and direction.

Anyway, yes.  Those 4 French tanks are purchased in significant quantities by the computer in 1939 and 1940.  I know this because lately I've been testing a new generated campaign format.  But I didn't want to make a big deal out of it.  I just wanted to let people know that the French are a more difficult opponent to deal with in 1939 and 1940 due to their size 1 tanks.  Not terribly important in the overall scheme of things.  [P.S.  And this new campaign format I'm testing is one of the 'outside influences and factors' I mentioned regarding editing my OOBs.  No point in testing and posting a new campaign format if I'm using different OOBs from Enhanced DVRN.  There are other 'outside influences and factors', but this is one of them.]

Regarding the size 1 versus size 2 issue, this is also old news and was argued and debated long ago.  And that situation got resolved by the man behind the curtain at Matrix long ago.  I did not intend to re-open that issue when I started this thread.

So, yes.  I agree with you guys.  There is nothing more to see here, so I'll be moving along.

Speaking of size....how is it that the soviet JS2(m) rates a size 5, as opposed to the JS2
at size 4? Other than a sloping front upper hull(as opposed to stepped), aren't these two tanks dimensionally the same?

I do not know why only the French OOb has these size one vehicles, there are about 6 or 8 of these units all total.
Perhaps someone in past OOb teams thought they should be size 1 , all this stuff was done years ago by various OOB teams.
no idea about the JS tanks either, same reason I presume.......Anyway, I change things as I see fit for my personal OOB set, suggest others do the same for AI play.

We have got these OObs cleaner than they have been in many many years so.......At some point we simply have to stop making "patches" otherwise we will have 100 people with 100 different verisons of Enhanced trying to figure out what version they have and play PBEM and complaining about security violation messages......which has already happened in fact.

Alby,

Exactly.  Which is why I don't mess with my OOBs.  I just leave them basic Enhanced DVRN.
