Atheory's Project: Operation Fischreiher (Stalingrad42)

[Plain Ian]

From what I can see, the 376th ID was part of the 19th Welle, which consisted of 4 divisions (370, 371, 376, 377) which were raised with 3 regiments of 2 battalions each. Hence the 6 battalions :)


Not sure what you're getting at with the two tank battalions. They are assigned to the 63rd Army.
If they aren't in the unit dialogue box, then they are on the map or vice versa. The only way for them to not exist (i believe) is if you resized the scenario from the original one, thus leaving them off the map to begin with. If this to be the case and you've already done a lot of editing you can just manually add a second set of those units to the oob, or start over by first remove those two units from the original map before creating a smaller sub-scenario off the original one.


let me know if I've addressed these adequately, if not, feel free to rephrase and I'll try again.

Sincerely

Yes you are right. I had assumed all German units were 3 Regiment 3 Battalion types and forgot about the crazy Welle system the Germans used. I had noticed differences in the Infantry Division reconnaissance units and pioneer units.
 
The problem with the Russian tank units is not really an OOB problem, its possibly more of a PzC issue or something about PzC I do not understand. I have made up a sub map and created a scenario (uses sub map, Drive_For_Stalingrad.oob) but I see the same thing when I look at Fischfreiher?
 
If you use pcoob.exe to look at Drive_For_Stalingrad.oob and you will see the two tank units.


 
If you open up the game and then the Units dialogue box or even if you are using the pcedit.exe to change a scenario you do not see the units? Even if you are looking at the campaign file Fischreiher?



So when using the pcedit.exe you cannot select the unit as they are not there? I can still add them as reinforcements by manually changing the .scn file with a text editor though.

Is it to do with the way the units appears in the .oob file?
