WSF command range heads up! - Mr Grumpy - 06-24-2009 Guys, For anyone playing this new title here is a tip that is not covered in the rules, WSF has "blocked" hexsides which i have found also block the command radius of a HQ just like a ZOC does!! :( Came as a big shock when half of my force was found to be "detached" on my second move! :hissy: If anyone who has TFB reads this can they tell me if there are any blocked (non beach) hexsides in that title?? :chin: RE: WSF command range heads up! - Glenn Saunders - 06-24-2009 There are many Blocked Beach Hexsides on the master map - for instance between the area from GOLD beach to OMAHA in Normandy for instance. Not sure what scn you were playing where it became a problem but you could send me the file if you lke. Also - not sue how Command range figures into this map thing either RE: WSF command range heads up! - Mr Grumpy - 06-26-2009 File sent.............:chin: RE: WSF command range heads up! - Glenn Saunders - 06-26-2009 File recieved - showed units 4 and 5 hexes away from an HQ with a Command range of 6. One of the effects or Modifications to Command range as defined inthe DOCs is • The command radius of a headquarters unit Effectiveness. That is, if the Effectiveness of 50%, then its command radius is only 50% of nominal. • When a headquarters is Entrained or Embarked, its command radius. In this example the HQ has 80% effectiveness. 80% of 6 is 4.8 and as per Johns way of handling fractions in the game - it is normally FRD or Fractions rounded down so the effective command range of the HQ unit is 4 hexes Glenn RE: WSF command range heads up! - Hoyt Burrass - 06-26-2009 Hey Glenn, does the command range button on the menu bar show the reduced range when clicked?

LOL :rolleyes: |
