Re: Most worthless hero and One That's Sorely Missing

I have followed others advice earlier in this thread...and I still hate First Aid! Ha ha, I understand your feelings. As it happens, in my current Grand Campaign, I somehow started AO'40 with Delayed Reinforcements (no replacements during a battle) instead of what I intended to select, which was Sl...

Re: Most worthless hero and One That's Sorely Missing

I'm revisiting this thread to add my latest nomination for the Hall of Shame: Resilient. This hero's trait prevents the unit from losing more than half of it's strength in a single combat. Sounds ok, but in practice I find it useless, and I am absolutely swimming in them in my current grand campaign...

Re: HAL generously awarding Superior Maneuver Hero

Before I get fighter-bombers, I usually have a tank that is faster than average - the Verdeja 2 or a BT-5 or BT-7. That's where it goes in those cases. Another thing I did with it before fighter-bombers was to pair it with Oleh Dir (who gives +2 initiative and +2 speed) on a Cavalry unit. That gives...

Re: Bug Reports

I'm not anal enough to roll over on every single instance of combat, but suppression doesn't always magically cure the instant that one attack is over. Here's the write up on it from an online manual: Suppression means that a portion of the target's unit strength does not participate in combat, i.e...

Re: Bug Reports

Units sometimes lose xp when they attack, even when the outcome is favorable. For example, in these two screenshots, my 3000 xp Verdeja attacks a French fort in the Orenthal scenario. My Verdeja suffers 2 suppression damage, and the fort suffers 1 regular damage and one suppression damage. All fine...

Re: windows 11

I have some sound problems since Windows 11. From time to time I lose the sound for a few seconds. I’m not sure it has anything to do with Windows 11.

Re: Experience question

Every time a unit is in combat it gets experience points, and gets stars as its points build up, but does the combat result affect how many exp points it gets? For examp if it hurts the enemy real bad does it get more exp points than if it only hurt the enemy a little bit? Experience granted does v...

Re: Limited Stock Grand Campaign early impressions

When I import the Corps to AO'39, I'm thinking of starting with a supply limit of 30 for the first mission, so that I can buy my usual infantry set up, and dial it back to 20 or 15 over the next couple of missions. In the campaign I'm playing, the Czechoslovakia mission inflicted nearly no casualti...

Re: Bonus Missions ... what do they provide again

It depends on the mission. On default campaign settings, you're guaranteed another hero for completing it. There may also be commendation point rewards granted for completing optional objectives in the bonus mission that you can spend down the line. If the bonus mission uses your units (nearly all d...

Re: Limited Stock Grand Campaign early impressions

An update: I just finished the Spanish Civil War and imported my core to AO'39. The faction change from SCW to AO'39 is a little bumpy. There is a lot of equipment that is part of the Condor Legion faction but not part of the DE faction. There is some odd behavior with this equipment: Any Condor-Leg...

Field Repair won't work on towed guns, only self-propelled ones.
It works for my towed guns. I just tested it to be sure. Why do you think it doesn't work?

Re: Limited Stock Grand Campaign early impressions

Good to know but with only one recovery point per turn. It would be nice to have the same type of Repairs heroes for other types of units as infantry units (Mechanized Repair Hero). First Aid does the same thing as Field Repairs, but for infantry. Field Repairs works on all non-infantry, non-aircra...

Limited Stock Grand Campaign early impressions

I have started my Limited Stock Grand Campaign playthrough at the Spanish Civil War. I'm enjoying it very much and I'm glad that the mode was implemented and that they took the time to sand off the rough spots for the recent patch. Currently I'm at Early Madrid (scenario 5). Here are my impressions ...

Re: Should i wait for next patch ?

I'm waiting, but I'm not sure why you should. You have played AO '42 and know that you like it. Why not keep going? The main reason I'm waiting is because the game mode I intend to start a new AO playthrough with, Limited Supply, has a bug that makes playing a campaign painful. If that weren't the c...
