Panzer Battles 2 - The Official Teaser Thread

[Strela]

Ok, i understand it bad... armored companies have HQ... even more, the support tanks (derp guns) are attached with HQ and not squadrons.

But i have here a question... in troops are fireflyes (4 Croms but inside is 3+1) but they are integrated in the troop using a buffed value in hard/soft attack??? this is not problematic  but with the range value how you solve it??? 3 Croms+ 1 Fire is take the Crom firepower x3 and +1 Fire hard/soft attack and divide all by 4 but range... Firefly has more hard attack than Crom but Crom has more soft range attack than fire... you are going to "nerf" hard attack range maybe??? or mantein Firefly hard attack range with a nerf in hard attack value???

PD: Jim, where is your post??? only appear Strela post.

Squadrons are companies in British Army 'speak'. Regiments are Battalions just to confuse it more. There are HQ tanks at both the squadron and regiment level. In the example I posted the squadron HQ's can combine.


We have specific values for the combined units. For the actual fire values it is a weighted average. For the range we use the longest. So for example a Sherman Firefly can fire out 12 hexes and a Cromwell 8 hexes. We give the combined unit a 12 hex range to represent the longest possible range, but with a fire value that is heavily weighted to the Cromwell. Range attenuation also helps here to average things out.

Jims post was at the bottom and I copy it verbatim...


Didn't they run into some German tankie blighter - Manntwit, Wattmin or some such - in Villers and have a spot of bother. Bloody shambles, actually. Damned poor show!
