This download doesn't work for me. Why won't a zip attachment work?

Please do as described! Click the "Attachment(1)" link, download and then just replace the *.txt extension with *.zip! File the should open in Winzip normally! Unzip the file, load up in Word compatible application and have fun reading! Don´t forget giving some feedback as well!

Darn,, the more I work in this "new" style forum, the more I hate it.

Great job Harry/OOB team! From the descriptions, these 'new' units sound like excellent additions to the game.

Nope, the file downloads somwhere but disappears. I can't find it to change the name. Drop me the zip file by email if you get a chance, OK?

Poor poor dogs... Couldn't you just make a suicide bomber... or a mine drunkard... or a mine automation....

Great job as usual, Harry The mine dogs are a fun little unit? Not if yoy are one of the dogs
The only thig I could think of adding would be the self propelled Karl Mortars. I thought we had put them in for LV but I do not see them in the Norway OOB.

Was an idea for MCLV from Mosh (Simo Kukko) as you know Brent!...yes, the Karl mortars are (still) in as well, but I didn´t mention them as they´re not part of the new special scenario maker units.

Wow! This looks gr8!

Couple of questions:

1) Some of the time bomb, bridge dc, etc. features say 'not for AI.' Does that mean I should plan on not assigning them to the AI to use to try and blow up a bridge in a human's face because the AI is too dumb to use correctly?

2) The Liberty Ship that needs to unload in a water AND a bridge hex. Having never tried this, will it work, or will the ship just smush the bridge hex? I wonder.

Any ETA on just this stuff's update?

Harry,

this is a very good work ! It's important to have in our game these features. These open a lot of opportunity to build a very strong and realistic scenarios. The concept of "sabotage" enter in Spwaw ! All my appreciation my friend !

WOW... Super job... I really like the secret objective messages. I can not wait to play a senarion with NO victory hexes and a whole bunch of objective messages!

1. Yes, these units are still artillery class units and the AI would just use (reassign) them as any normal artillery. Thus "Not for AI".

That's too bad. I was hoping for something for a scen like in Market-Garden where the human has X amount of time to cross a bridge before it blows.

Hi Sturm.

Harry will be able to confirm/deny this, better than me, but I do still envision a way to make the AI blow up a bridge at a given turn, in a designed scenario.

You must buy a “target” unit for human player, and a “bridge demolition charge” for AI.
Make the “target” appear, at the desired turn, in the hex where the to-be-blown bridge is located, using a reinforcement hex(you can do it using Chandla’s WawEd, too, if you don’t want to “spend” a reinf.hex for this, but it’s a bit more complicated), and in the same turn, make the “bridge DC” unit appear next to the “target” one.
The “bridge DC” should attack the “target” and makes the bridge blow up, too, at the same time.

The real draw back is that the “bridge DC” unit must be the only one with a Line of Sight to the “unit” one; differently, it could happen that another AI’s unit fires at “target” and kill it, before the “bridge DC” one is able to make its job..
