A Couple of Questions

Post by canuckgamer »

I see that the game is in early release at Steam.

I know the game is WEGO so it must be the same as the Combat Mission series where both players enter their "orders" for the next time segment after which that time segment is played out in real time. In CM each time segment is 60 seconds. What is it in Scramble?

When the time segment is played out I assume that all the arrows I see in the video can be disabled so that you just see the movement of the aircraft, tracers, and damage. Is that correct?

Time limits were removed from turns a while ago, you have as long as you like to play your turn.

Yes, you can turn off all UI elements when reviewing any turns, either in-game or post-match. The UI for this is a little clunky at the moment, but the functionality is all there.

Thanks for the reply but you misunderstood my question. My understanding is that Scramble uses the WEGO system so each player issues there maneuvers after which that turn is resolved in real time. My question is, each turn represents how much real time?

For example, in Combat Mission 60 seconds of real time is resolved after each player enters in their orders for their units.

WEGO Stalingrad uses the WEGO game system too.
