Status: offline 		Attached is a zip file containing the wishlist document that Jarek Flis and I have been developing for months. It was developed by collecting the wishes expressed here, there, and everywhere. We've tried to be comprehensive, but, in spite of the label, that is unattainable. We'll try to continue to maintain it as more issues are raised. Hopefully, this will reduce the repetitive posting of the same wishes over and over.

It's very important that everyone understand that this document is totally unofficial. Be sure to read and understand the disclaimer it contains and repeated here:

I've been in a "wishlist" mood lately, as you can see from the following posts:

I hope some of these suggestions are helpful.

Also, I'd like to see a new air unit attack menu option: SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defences). Analogous to the current 'Airfield attack' menu option, the SEAD option would cause the attacking air unit(s) to focus their efforts on air defense assets, particularly SAMs, present in the target hex. Any hex containing enemy units can be targetted, but SEAD attacks would be much more effective against units of type: Anti Aircraft, Motorized Anti Air, Airborne and Airmobile Anti Aircraft.

You know, this really is necessary for modern scenarios.

That would be a cave without restriction as to what could enter in a hex with a rail line. I'll clarify it.

See 4.3. Rather than a special case for air icons, it describes general ability to revise the parameters of all icons.

I think you meant this, right? "2.1.6 117 objectives per formation, 9 objective tracks per formation."

Thanks for reviewing this...I'll consult the document before posting any additional wishlist items.

Many are good none the less like production suggestions etc...

Stupid are: elephants and such things (why you need ancient warfare here at all? LOL

Mount and Dismount - pure stupidity, TOAW is OPERATIONAL game - it is not tactical game a la STEEL PANTHERS!!!
Mobile status covers that.

Find city option is also needed.

Again you didnd't in fact considered mine suggestions or Siberian Heat's at Gamesquads or you had??????
Need reply on this - is this just vanity or what?

I have suggested DYNAMICAL ZOC's numerous times so that my division don't spend 8 or 6 mov. points if it is PINNED by mere COMPANY!!!!
So PC would DYNAMICALLY (SEE) calculate movement costs.

Intead of Elephants an such stupidities you could use some ideas from Hearts of Iron 2. Again I have suggested this numerous times!
Like commanders who are giving bonueses or penalties to units under them!
That would make TOAW a lot more interesting.

Now we have pale, bland all same units, no attachments to them. This option would also give a plethora new options to HQ subordination.

For example you could adjust divisions that Paulus 6th Army get's. He started with 18 divisions and later his fat army ended at 22! I think, talking now just from my head.

So Zhukov would give this or that bonus. So you can make plans, what flanks you will attack and with which commander. That is oprational game. On one flank you must defend so you put Heinrici there or Jaenecke.
Etc!

So I would just suggest that you and your Polish friend look for other suggestions as well. And dig up Siberian Heat suggestions.

Bow to the old ladies

If you think that everything is covered OK but still think that it's better to add substantial essentials than wooden palisades.

Production suggestions are good start however there shoudn't be so much micromanaging - example:

6.13 Interdiction.
6.13.1 Mineral resources, raw materials, finished equipment items, trained equipment items, etc. must all be transported from source to next required destination. Upon doing so they become subject to enemy interdiction. That includes bombing of transportation hubs and submarine warfare (assuming submarine warfare is simulated).

Is this Operational Art of Speer or War?

Production ideas are OK for discussion but above thing is so hard to do properly and will go to SF pretty soon.
Player could have disrupted flow of manpower if system is abused or scenario allows that. In reality - never actually happened to a serious degree.

Just because you don't agree with them doesn't mean they are 'stupid' or don't belong there.

Mario;

Nah, this is the unlikely to be completed NEW GAME: "The Strategic Art of Operational Tactics", so don't sweat the small stuff, Big Guy!!! Expected publication date is Dec 21 2012, and you know what that means, LOL!

Just add into it, rather than blasting it, eh? We've all got something 'strangely disturbing' that we would like to see, so don't get too involved in other people's wet-dreams, eh?

Have fun! Not like you'll be asked to buy a copy, LOL!

If someone wants elephants for a Roman Empire era battle, why not...
He can use the equipment editor to create elephants, chariots, catapults and hot tar!

I have an idea for a crazy Southern style scenario... Redneck War with squads driving Ford Bronco's, Hummers and other typical vehicles versus State Troopers with police cruisers

Well it doesn't... As we see it has wish of Bob Cross and Jarek there. So it is like comitee wish list. Why they didn't then include other's wish list is a question.

And stop acting like a police guard here. I am allowed to call elephants in TOAW just that - stupid. This system is broad enough to include XIX century and XX century and you are now acting like biggest fanboy and sicophant which is simple not needed.

Like I am some troublemaker that needs to be taught a lesson.

If something is stupid then it is stupid. Like elephants in TOAW it's simply not great or splendid.

That is crazy .... How soon will you have it done? Will Daisy Dukes be a Theatre Option?

good idea...
ans supply points... Walmart and the Home Depot?

It's just a private undertaking to see how wacky I can go in TOAW...

But my 2 cents on the ongoing discussion... elephants... it's all up to the individual designer... if designers wanna design such scenarios they'll design'em... if players wanna play such scenarios they'll play'em... There are some nice ones around designed with the 19th Century EXE

But imho I don't think TOAW itself should be modified to accomodate that type of scenarios... the EQP editor can allow designers to do a lot in order to create era specific scenarios...

Enuff said... back to Italy for a fresh turn of getting trashed by Mr Veers
