Tips and Tricks- Op Fire.

[XLVIII Pz. Korp]

A word of caution regarding op fire settings. Changing them is fine and I recommend it however, and this is very important, on the first turn of the game you should bring up the global op-fire menu by selecting "D" when no units are selected and change all global settings to long. Otherwise changes made to individual units may not stick as global settings always take precedent unless the new setting is more restrictive. For example if your infantry has a global setting vs soft vehicles of short and you change the individual unit to long the change will not stick because global settings take precedent.

I believe EF scenarios start with all long global settings, however I think WF scenarios begin with a mixed bag of global settings.

One of the things I hate about the first turn of a huge scenario is that I always change all global settings to long then individually tinker with each unit. It's worth the time though because throughout the rest of the scenario I can change individual settings with worrying if they will stick or not.
