Hallo,

i am playing the TAO2-Freeware version for the first time.
KP is just orderd by my german dealer, bat here
in germay we will get the game first in 3 weeks.

My question is about the size of the units:

In TOAW, TacOps or Airborene-Assault (e.g.) I can see every time
how man "real" men, tanks, pak's are behind the anonymous
icon (Say: 26. Koy. => 212 men.;4 tanks)

I need this Information for the big picture. And we all now,
a division (or I, II, III, X, XXX) in the last stages of WWII
existed often with verry different mix and numbers of units.

Does somebody know, how I can see, (or find out) how many
"concrete mens ..." are behind the Icons ?

Thanks and greetings
Rolfor

There is no way to see the exact nr of soldiers and equipment of the units in KP.

If you want to look at the 'big picture' it is abstraction that actually makes sense: for a general overview you want to know what the combat strength and the strength state of a unit is.
(Well , at least *I* would).

What would knowing the exact number of PAK88's add to knowing that the unit has lost half it strength, but is still at Att 4, def 3 and AT 2?

When playing TOAW, at first I also went into the detail display. But later on (in general) I just based my decisions on the main At/def factors. That is what counts.

Cheers,

von Schmidt
