Consolidated Heroes of Stalingrad thread

Whenever the die rolls for initiative are the same - the Soviets get the initiative - regardless of who had initiative the previous turn.

From what I remember, when the die roll was tied, the side with the initiative the previous turn got the initiative.

[Barthheart]

Yep, that's a bug....  :P

[JudgeDredd]

YES!

My work here is done   ;)

[JudgeDredd]

BH - whilst I've got your attention....

...when a crew bails from a tank - but the tank was ok...can they be "unshaken" and get back in the tank?

I never really got round to much armour action in the board game so I'm a bit fumbly with armour and other vehicles and finding my way by trial and error

[Barthheart]

Nope. Once abandoned, a vehicle cannot be re-entered.

PS and the bug has been around for a while.....  ;)

[JudgeDredd]

Bugger. I need to restart this scenario then  :(

Hopefully I'm not necro-ing this thread too badly...

Are folks still playing this? I have to admit that I'm having a hard time with it, mostly because I can't seem to find a zoom level that works for me. There just seems to be a lot on the screen with a lot of map obscured. Any tips on settings that might help?

I'm interested in more discussion of this as well, still haven't decided if I want to take the plunge or not, so reading with interest.

You can turn off the UI with the F2 key.  What update are you using? The zooming has been updated so there is more levels.

I'm still playing and try to play MP at least once a week.

If you have other questions please feel free to ask. :)

I updated to 1.07 yesterday when I decided to give it another go. Even with the update I found it really tough to get a view I liked. It may be that I just need to get used to it and what I think I need to see (the entire board) I don't really need to see. I'll try F2 and see if it helps. Until I really get the rules though, I suspect I'll need to keep it on more than off!

If you have other questions please feel free to ask. :)

Thanks, I appreciate it. I really want to like this, it seems as close to ASL as you can get these days in a computer game.

Thanks for the encouragement to give this another try. I've played it quite a bit this weekend and its rapidly becoming a favorite now that I'm getting the hang of it. I've posted some observations on my blog.

I'm interested to try the editor soon.

Where is your blog?  Might be nice to take a look and keep it as a place to visit.
