Kharkov’43.. Enjoying it a lot.. some suggestions..

Hi,

Am greatly enjoying this game system now.. after twenty years of half-hearted efforts to get into it.. ; ).

One more very obvious tweak that would help is to subdivide morale and quality ratings. Currently they are of course the same, C or B or E.. and so on. Resulting in percentage modifiers to a range of capabilities.

The two often go together. But not always. The classic example is of course the Eastern Front. Where from the off the Soviets were a match for the Germans in morale even though during the first half of the war far less well trained. Some rating such as Assault should be effected by both morale and experience. But many factors currently effected by Quality/Morale are either morale or experience factors but not both.

I change all units in Eastern Front games to C or B for elite units Quality/Morale for both sides and then use the excellent, specific modifiers for say artillery setup and indirect fire, supply and such to downgrade the Soviets where they were poorer performers in the real world. In winter ‘42/’43 anyway.

But two specific ratings, morale and then experience/training normally effecting different capabilities would be better.

All the best,
Kip.
