Minor weirdness in Tunisia 43 - Indragnir - 03-12-2011 Hi guys, I purchased T'43 game, I'm enjoying my initial review on it. I noticed a (likely) couple of glitchs. Scenario: Kasserine Campaing (HTH). Side: Allied Unit: US II Corps, 443rd Coastal Artillery Bn. Equipment: M15A1 AA Guns, have AA value 2/0, with SA 24/2. Scenario: Flanking the Mareth line (HTH). Side: Allied Unit: 8th Army, NZ (prov) Corps, L Force, 3rd Field Regiment Equipment: 25 pdr Field Gun. All 25 pdr have HA 3/11, this one has 5/11. It's intentional?

This "Coastal Arty" unit shows up everywhere - seems like they had a Btty here and their all over the place and I have no idea why they were call COASTAL. There were equipments with a new, experimental type QUAD MG type thing. I saw a couple pictures of it. Mean looking piece of work. But yes, it is as it should be. RE: Minor weirdness in Tunisia 43 - Indragnir - 03-13-2011 Thanks Glenn, Never heard about those Quad MG direct fire vehicles, I presume they were discarded, do you know why? were they of little use? Theorically those babies could deliver a hell of fire. I'm loving this game a lot. RE: Minor weirdness in Tunisia 43 - Tortue Agile - 03-13-2011 It was COASTAL because: Quote:The introduction of an Antiaircraft Artillery capability to the division began in 1939. In just three years the Coast Artillery Corps fielded hundreds of battalions with all new equipment, many of which saw combat in North Africa. Influenced by the Coast Artillery experience of defending static points, and precluded from maneuvering with the field army in the interwar years, the doctrine, equipment and training for the AAA units at Kasserine required significant adjustment. By Remagen, the fixes were in place.

My question is: were they employed in a AA role or a direct fire unit? I mean they've the same AA value than a non-AAA unit. |
