I think if it's down you get the missing server routine, whereas if it's something like too much traffic we might get something like what we're getting. I'm getting about halfway through to get to the page and it just hangs there. I have a cable modem and the thing is sitting there like 10 minutes. Perhaps very late tonight or tomorrow morning?

I finally got through at 0500 today. At first it got one of those site missing type of messages, immediately, and having to deal a lot with that at work, though I was at home, I hit it once again, and then it went through it's painful process, only to get through approximately 5 minutes later. I must've tried 3 or 4 times yesterday, and on at least a couple of those attempts it came up saying the database was down.

It never ceases to amaze me as to what a dedicated group of (SPWAW) volunteers [SIZE=3]"can do"[/SIZE] for the love of this game. To all who made this version of H2H [COLOR=crimson]"Bravo Zulu"[/COLOR]

Leo,

First off thanks for putting such a tremendous effort into making a great game even greater.

2nd, a question. Your documentation says that infantry are now 'tougher'. Can you elaborate on that a little? :)

Does this mean that the tendancy for infantry units, even in cover to suffer greatly increased too hit chances has been reduced somewhat?

Example:

entrenched inf unit spotted in hex. Tank (or inf) fires at it and gets correspondingly low to hit % (say 5%)

However if the entrenched inf unit returns fire. The next shot from any units will get a greatly enhanced to hit % (say, 45%)

Often wondered about this aspect in WAW....at first it seemed to make sense as it encouraged combined arms tactics, + it would seem to make sense that a unit thats "firing" is more vulnerable vs one that is taking cover, but now it feels a bit too gamey because it can be counted on every time and the to hit % change is so dramatic. Makes it very easy for AFV's to root out infantry in cover terrain or buildings.

[/B][/QUOTE]

Not Leo ... but I guess that the infatry is "tougher" because is harder to spot than in previous versions.

As SEARCHING is seted at 60% in the preferences screen, every unit is harder to spot ... but smaller units are even harder. So untis like infantry and ATG, which have a size of 1 may be really dificult to spot. So infantry have more chances to ambrush tanks ... or slowly advance and then assault enemy tanks ...

Tanks are also worst for spotting ... so you will need infantry and recon units to spot entrenched or in-cover enemy units.

I think tath this is what makes infantry tougher in SPh2H.fr

Chief, I don't remember if I set it that way or not, but don't think I did, particularly since I NEVER set total points available. My guess is that it's a preference that's throughout the scenarios, but I didn't check, just reset the global preferences. (I always use 100% or XXX preferences, fast artillery on, C & C off, opt fire off, and my units numbered.) Perhaps Panzer Leo can shed light on it.... (In response to a couple of other comments, I've found units harder to spot in H2H without setting that preference lower.)

Glad you're enjoying it, no matter what the settings! Thanks!
