Hi goose :)

Sorry I wasn't there: I only reaziled 3 hours ago that the broadcast was yesterday. I confused the dates, thought it was today :(

I have to confess though that I was prepared to replay the scenario: the briefing said to "fall back en masse to El ...

5) Dash to the Wire ~~ DV


Mini Spoiler

The captured Matilda II from Battleaxe was green-refitted and disbanded for prestige. Close call. On a second playthrough I would keep and try to use it as sort of self-propelled AT, since its stats are actually not that bad for Africa ...

Thank you very much for the hotfix

Thanks Locarnus :)



I think it's easier if we look at the Vierling instead.
The 2cm Flakvierling has a 17% higher RoF over the 2cm and 27% higher RoF over 3.7cm Flak. The Vierling has less movement range than the 2cm Flak and less attack range than the 3.7cm Flak. Finally, it is about 75% more ...

No problem at all, Locarnus :)
With hundreds (thousands?) of units in the efile, playtesting by additional people is important. "4 eyes see more than 2" as they say.


RE: heroes/medals
I see. Seems GC and USC have their own files to determine heroes and medals, so yes, AK is going to use BE ...

Hi Locarnus :)


Some more findings:
- name inconsistency on 21cm Nblwf: "r10" (short name) vs "r11" (long name)

- Cannone 47/32 "Fiat" and Cannone 75/39 "Fiat" are 92 prestige more expensive than the versions without trucks. For other "towed" units the Fiat truck costs only 72
