Upped all inf assault values 3 points and lowered tanks 3 points, not a major change but adds that little bit more to the inf if tanks assault by themselves. Heres a preview of the new tank values, some big changes here, the better got better and the worse got worse. Any ideas on changes nows the time to let me know and we can debate them, gonna try to have it all done by next weekend. I'm currently playing two Bolt team games. Can these changes be integrated into ongoing games?

The elimination of the Danish Hawks might ruin it for you because its an oob change, if it was just values it might work. Also depends what side your playing, i think the new values hurt Nato more than Pact so if your a Nato player pretend like you didnt see this post RE: Bolt out of the Blue 4.7 - Aaron - 07-07-2013 Here we go, first new added parameter Night Movement Disruption Parameter Data Value. This probability is applied each hex the unit moves not by the stated restrictions.( Not in travel mode during at night turn) The disruption probability is modified by the Quality of the unit according to the following modifiers: · The probability for Quality A units is multiplied by 0.25. · The probability for Quality B units is multiplied by 0.50. · The probability for Quality D units is multiplied by 1.50. · The probability for Quality E units is multiplied by 2.00. · The probability for Quality F units is multiplied by 4.00. I like it, there should be a chance the unit gets lost, makes a wrong turn and gets itself jumbled up. I like it even more that it applies towards quality of units, the lesser train units cant read a map. Ive set a value of 20% in the .pdt. That gives Quality A units is multiplied by 0.25. 5.0% very few A units Quality B units is multiplied by 0.50. 10.0% Quality C units is multiplied by 1.00. 20.0% Quality D units is multiplied by 1.50. 30.0% Quality E units is multiplied by 2.00. 40% not in game Quality F units is multiplied by 4.00. 80% not in game any thoughts? this percentage is per hex moved while deployed during a night turn RE: Bolt out of the Blue 4.7 - Aaron - 07-07-2013 Number 2 on the new parameter values When the target is hard and the firing unit is artillery or heavy artillery firing at a range of 1, then the fire value is multiplied by the Artillery Hard Target Mod Parameter Data value. Should there be a bonus to the artillery units HA value for direct fire at a hard target 1 hex away or should it only use the value it has for indirect fire listed in the oob? Im not leaning towards any bonus for this, while a 155mm round can knock out a tank in direct fire the problem lies with hitting hit Number 3, mine prob parameter. Have it at 10% right now. Should we have more or less mines being laid?

Unfortunately I cannot recall the exact units but I think they were Corp level in the I and II Corps. They were larger units too, 300+ men. Fixed, there were 6 of them (SchwimmbrückenBtl), they had 1 company bridging and 3 of regular engineers. The 3 regular engineers were using the wrong graphic Also fixed, it was the french recon units in there P4 jeeps. Havnt decided if im gonna change them to PM (armored car} so they count as vehicles or use the actual manpower of the unit but one way or another it will be fixed Thanks even though your post is from 2 years ago, my bad RE: Bolt out of the Blue 4.6.1 - tbridges - 07-11-2013 (07-11-2013, 05:37 AM)tazaaron Wrote:(02-20-2011, 01:51 AM)Nitram Draw Wrote: Some German engineer units show a bridge symbol but cannot build bridges.

Hey Aaron...I'm NATO in a team game and if you could take a look at an engineering unit in Jutland I would appreciate it. Its a Kampfschwimmer unit that starts out fixed in Kiel. It only has 33 movement points (even in "T" mode). But the the image shows its a helicopter unit. It doesn't function as a helo unit. It seems either the image is wrong and shouldn't include the helo, or the MPs are wrong and the unit should be able to be air lifted. Thanks...great mod btw, my favorite game!

Thats an SF unit it just doesnt get dropped behind the lines, all the SF units have a helo with the pic but dont actually move that way. I should probably move them so they sneak up on the shore in EGermany RE: Bolt out of the Blue 4.7 - JDR Dragoon - 07-12-2013 I wouldn´t have them in the game at all. The various frogmen/Naval Spetsnaz types had mission profiles that would not typically have seen them deployed in a capacity relevant to DF85.
