Scenario Designers: Truck Bug - Osiris - 09-18-2008

Hi

For all the designers..check the Russian trucks out..make sure that they are unloading the infantry..

I thought that having 3SP trucks carrying 6SP infantry units in the new Russian OBs was a bad idea.

I have only found this problem with all Russian Guard Infantry so far. The AI cannot unload Russian Guard Infantry units, Guard Rifle, Guard SMG, Guard MG and Guard Engineer if they are loaded onto 3SP trucks as per the new Russian OBs, the AI will just run around the board with fully loaded trucks and will be more than happy to get up close and personal with german tanks but it will not unload!

I reloaded the infantry into 6SP trucks and the AI was more than happy to unload them at the first sign of a german tank. It fixed the problem.

Good to know that for scns against AI it is better to use 6 sp trucks, if you need to use trucks at all for the AI side.
As for Human vs Human scns I'm glad we are rid of some of the truck/HT clutter.

Just an observation not a dig at the new rules but surley they are just as many truck/HT icons cluttering the battle field as their alway was, they just don't have as many sp's ?

OvB, it has something to do with blocking a hex when they are destroyed, rather than just seeing them on the map.
