I´ve just installed the latest update and i´m playing the "Rearguard" mission. I think some else has changed.

Turn 1: An 8-Rad appears and destroys the entreched 2pdr gun with a single shot. In the previous defence mission (the bunkers one) an entrenched 2Pdr gun got fired a lot of times and no scratch at all.

Turn 2: Same 8-rad move further, destroys a couple of 2Pdr portees. A SdKfz 251 destroy my last remaining portee with MG fire!

Turn 5: Reinforcements!! A couple of M3 Honey appears. German infantry got off the truck and blow up BOTH tanks! In the middle of the desert, not even an ambush.

Turn 6: All i have left is a lonely 2Pdr gun and 19 turns remaining.

I´m not sure is this mission is twaked to make thing difficult for british player but the 20mm guns of the 8Rad were not THAT effective in previous missions.

Maybe something else has changed in th update?

UPDATE: A CV-33 has fired its MG´s against another entreched 2Pdr and destroyed it. This is NOT normal!

I just gave it a few runs, and got exactly the opposite results. There were not (99% sure) any alterations to the unit stats of the units you're talking about, we were very specifically look at the Axis heavy armour.

I think it's just a run of very bad luck! As I say, I had my 2Pdr soak up attack after attack (and put on a good show on the offensive too!).

These results are all possible but unlikely. I think you had a bad run of luck. In war nothing is certain.

Maybe just bad luck, later on the game another CV-33 destroyed an entrenched 2Pdr...rather odd but a very interesting game, i won the scenario in last turn with just one unit remaining.
