I looked in the index could not see a section 2.2.8.. I went to section 2.0 there was nothing beyond that. I looked on pages with references to units but have not found what I'm looking for.

RE: question - zap - 03-05-2016 Mixed signals I think 4.22 The Unit Handbook Additional information about a unit can be accessed by selecting that unit and pressing the F2 key. This will display useful information about the unit, such as its Action Point terrain costs, its per-SP Victory Point value, its “organizational tree” in the current scenario, some historical text on the unit type, and a sample illustration. Note: The terrain costs listed for a unit in the Unit Handbook are the terrain costs associated for the ground conditions (normal, soft, mud, or snow) of the scenario currently open. Clicking the “R” (“Range Display”) button will bring up a graph illustrating the range of its weaponry (if applicable); see Range Display, below. Also shown in the Unit Handbook is the “organizational tree” of the selected unit (providing a listing that unit’s company, battalion, regiment, etc.) To close the Range Display, left click on the graph, or press the Esc or Enter key. Use the same keys to close the Unit Handbook, or left click on the X (“Close”) button located in the lower right-hand corner of the Unit Handbook display. The Unit Handbook now lists special unit capabilities, including those that used to be graphically displayed in the Unit Information Box. There is no explanation of the terms under unit capabilities in the unit handbook. RE: question - Warhorse - 03-05-2016 Yes, in the manuals folder, CSME_Manual_102.pdf, page 40 says it all! EDIT: assuming of course you did indeed refer to CS:ME in your query to begin with?!

So I am assuming portage means the weapon can be carried? supInf does that means infantry suppress? softfireAI, have no idea. BattleKat may have answered a similar question several months ago and I remember only vaguely. He could have responded at the Matrix site. A search did not bring anything up. RE: question - Warhorse - 03-05-2016 I was wondering, after reading your original, it occurred to me you just might mean CS!! Yes, portage means it can be carried Inf Support means, it will fire in support of attacks on infantry, if possible. Soft AI, the unit in question will fire on soft target types in defensive fire. I assume you have CS:ME, those breakdowns of the capabilities stand the same with CS, although there are some listed in the ME, that CS does NOT have....yet! Sorry for the misunderstanding! RE: question - Jason Petho - 03-05-2016 Ah, sorry. Here is the entry from the CSME manual. While not everything is included, it should give you some insight. Quote:The Unit Handbook also lists the Unit Capabilities of the selected unit. RE: question - Three63 - 03-29-2016 I'd like to ask a question. How do I open up the unit handbook or check the command or weapon range of a unit if it is already loaded up on a truck? I want to check the command range of my battalion HQ, but it's loaded up and keeps going back to the truck. ----------- Also with my Black SStempber Intruders game it orders a release on turn 13 of a tank battlion that is not highlighted on the map and shows it incoming from off the map; along with a tank bat. getting released on turn 13 when it is listed as a Mech Inf. bat. . In your experince is that scn not 100% yet. Are they planning on releasing patches all the time for this game? Any other scn.s with issues like this? |
