I personally haven't played ST3 in years...but since it's game engine was the genesis of the whole SP blood-line I imagine it would run on Vista as well.
You may have do some tweaking of the system...give it a try.

How's that for a definite maybe? [:D]

As for playing past 1950 in SPWAW, well if you have the OoB's for the nations you seek to play then it would be possible. AFAIK there are some Korean War OoB's about but nothing all encompassing for the all the nations in the games line-up.

As for missing units...look to see if rarity is turned on in your game options. If so those units will not always be available to you.




FlashfyreSP -> RE: some questions (7/12/2008 3:26:18 PM)

If you want to play post-WWII battles, I suggest you get the SPMBT game from Shrapnel Games. It's a free version, based on the ST2 engine, that covers modern-day warfare.




Guynumber7 -> RE: some questions (7/12/2008 5:17:27 PM)

yeah thanks everyone. i found spmbt it looks good. ST3..i tried compatibility modes but dos would just start up then turn off it was odd.




Guynumber7 -> RE: some questions (7/12/2008 7:43:49 PM)

oh and another annoying thing is aircraft. when are they aviable? i do me advancing people as germany in june 41 and stuff is there but then i go to 1944 and its not... wtf...any suggestions?




V22 Osprey -> RE: some questions (7/12/2008 10:15:16 PM)

I notice that too,I think it depends on what type of engagement it is and what year.

The Visibility of the battle has a lot to do with air availability. Weather has an effect as well. And, the game adjusts it for each nation as the timeframe calls for it, such as Germany having less air in the 1944-45 period due to Allied air superiority.




Guynumber7 -> RE: some questions (7/13/2008 7:24:13 PM)

i see. well i can can change that by increasing the number of air sections. also dasy cutter for anzac that causes like 14 casualties in one bomb FTW! lol




KG Erwin -> RE: some questions (7/14/2008 11:42:44 PM)

My, my, my. I saw that. The ANZAC Beaufort MkVIII (unit 145) has that Daisycutter, beginning in May 1942. Didn't know my Aussies had that secret weapon. [:D]




Guynumber7 -> RE: some questions (7/15/2008 5:56:26 PM)

however  i am sad that there is no lancaster with a Grand Slam 22,000 lb bomb :(
