[ALL: OPT] [2.02] RE: Ode To Panzerblitz / Ode To Panzer Leader scenarios available in the Scenario DB - Big Ivan - 04-04-2015 Hey Battle Kat Got a unit problem with Panzerblitz #2 & #3 scenarios. Seems the Russian 82mm Mortars and Wagons have a strength of 9! That can't be right!? When I checked the org file, that strength level doesn't exist for either unit. Not sure if there is more, these are the first two I found. Looks like a compatibility issue between new CS and older versions of the game. Cheers! Ivan the Big RE: Ode To Panzerblitz / Ode To Panzer Leader scenarios available in the Scenario DB - Warhorse - 04-05-2015 Hi John, that may be correct actually, I believe some mortar units were 9 tubes? He would have had to edit the scenario file directly, you can put in any SP value, done it before!! RE: Ode To Panzerblitz / Ode To Panzer Leader scenarios available in the Scenario DB - Big Ivan - 04-05-2015 Hey Mike! That's interesting, you mean I can make a 50 strength point Panther platoon!? I got to get me one of those right now and fast! All kidding aside I never realized one could do that. I thought 10 was the limitation and only on very select units and only with what is available in the platoon org files. Cheers! John RE: Ode To Panzerblitz / Ode To Panzer Leader scenarios available in the Scenario DB - Crossroads - 04-05-2015 There's a complete set of Design Notes for both PB and PL situation conversions. I will upload them separately, they detail the various decisions made when converting original board game OoBs into EF and WF. I'll do that next weekend at the same time I upload the next situations to Scenario DB.

Mortars indeed required some tweeking to appear as SP9 unit as you observed. Here's a snippet of the Panzerblitz Russian unit stats: RE: Ode To Panzerblitz / Ode To Panzer Leader scenarios available in the Scenario DB - Crossroads - 04-11-2015 As a this weekend's PB/PL treat, I have now uploaded all PB / PL Design Notes to Scenario DB, one zip archive per game. They can be found here: Ode to Panzerblitz - All Design Notes (Not A Scenario) Ode to Panzer Leader - All Design Notes (Not A Scenario) There's a plethora of information available for us Board Game geeks - and for others too! - as how Alan has transfered each of the situations to East Front and West Front, and of his thoughts how they are best played.
