Matrix Edition and Unit Stats

[Afro Thunder]

Hi,

Does the Matrix version include any changes to the attack and defense stats for any units? I'm especially interested in finding out if there is a new German early-war engineer unit (that doesn't have the ridiculous 18 hard attack factor), and if the Russian infantry received any changes.

The majority of the stock units were left as is, but there are a large number of new units. Not sure about the German Engineer, but there are a number of Construction type Engineers that have very low attack and assault values - they are not combat engineers.

The Russians/Soviets also have a number of new rifle platoon types that are based on different shtat's and their changes throughout the war.

Jason,

What decision did Matrix make on the halftrack VP value for East Front? IIRC, EFII v1.02 and v1.03 had different values. One used 2 VP per SP and other used 3 VP per SP.

Wow! Now that's what I like to see in a HT... improved firepower! As well as a change in VP value that should accompany such a vehicle... great job and excellent idea! IMHO.

Actually Jason, I believe the Matrix EF German HT's are only 2VP per 1SP. I liked it better when they were 3VP per 1SP.
