An explanation please!

[Montana Grizz]

If I see the following in the "Strength Dialog" box:
9 (7VP) IS-2 Heavy Tank, do I receive 9 individual tanks of this type?

If I see the following in the "Schedule Dialog" box:
5 (70%) at 16,41 PzJg Tiger 88mm Tank Destroyer, does this mean that on turn 5 I have a 70% chance of receiveing the Tiger at that hex location?

I noticed that the Schedule box does not list the number of individual units I am to receive, while the Strength box lists the number?

Thanks,

Pat

Montana,

Yep that correct.

The Schedule is drawn from the OOB file and that file doesn't list the strength of formations, only the individual unit. If you open the OOB from the highlight menu and select a unit it only shows the unit itself, not the exact number of strength points.

The Strength Dialog is supposed to cater for that. It will refer to individual counts as obviously VP's are calculated on a per SP basis.

This means 9 platoons, not 9 tanks.
