In general, initiative does not affect your damage output unless you have a very low initiative, but it does reduce the damage of return fire when you have higher initiative. This isn't really the case. Attacking units of equal (or higher) initiative can cause a huge drop in your damage output, as ...

When was this changed from 10/star to 5/half-star?

This a good tank.

Speed 6 and decent stats. But it's the slot cost that's just amazing (2 base w/pg). Str 20 with consolidator for 6 slots is good enough to still see use in 43 as a supporting/sweeper tank.

Maybe i'm just paranoid or Prejudiced …. but!, rightly or wrongly... i'm getting the impression that the AI seems to almost always retreat to it's own lines... while the Players units seem to most of the time retreat towards the Enemy or its zones of control!. Exactly my impression too. AI units re...

We need the Verdeja 1

Patch notes say:

- Reworked Fjord War scenario

What does this mean exactly?

If your units retreat into unfavorable terrain it's because you're overextending and not supporting them properly.

Instead of focusing on (well known by now) game mechanics, focus on how to avoid setting yourself up for unfavorable retreats.

Problem solved.

Literally right in front of you: hex grid coordinates are listed under terrain type of each hex.

Retreat abides by VERY strict rules.

I suggest trying out the puzzle scenarios.

They will teach you all about retreats.

Once again, I really appreciate all the options and traits you can choose. I tried several things out, my problem is the traits are not very well balanced (depending on the year!) and are too extreme. Like "deny artillery", you get 3 points for that and with some experience and good core ...

AO 1943 felt rather short didn't it?

As usual the briefings are loaded with fluff and has precious little in the way of... briefing.

Also, what is a "narrative objective"? It's not explained anywhere. I also don't understand what "Ignore forces" might entail.

Not a good start.

The River Panther puzzle scenario has a lot of fun retreat interactions.

In the order so far. 1. AO1941 - Best variety of missions and a really long set of different scenarios. 2. AO1940 - Very creative approach towards fictional UK invasion, again a lot of missions and various theaters, tough to beat nemesis to fight multiple times. 3. SCW - A part of the war not yet c...

Hi all, I'm having issues with some of the co-op scenarios during play with a buddy. During Husky, we've taken Gela, Licata, and the supply dump north of Licata and not gotten any reinforcements. I've looked at the lua script for the scenario and see that we were supposed to get several units and p...

Hi All, I restarted the entire campaign on Colonel difficulty and try to achieve all bonus objects. It´s the most challenging at Ebro. I read through the thread and it seems the best strategy is to raid the other side of the river starting from the north and move forward to the central part to elim...

Quite like the Sealion 40 scenarios. It's a nice little story arc that ends in humiliation regardless of what you do. I far prefer this approach to the sameness of the Eastern Front, where I take Stalingrad again and again almost without losses yet is always back to the same stupid starting position...

Once captured you can rebase to Cadiz

That's bc the para rules changed since the puzzle was made... Now you cannot move and drop in the same turn. You must move, then drop. Making this puzzle impossible. If you want to play it, open rules.json and add the following to the top of the json "paratrooper_rules" : 1, Restart scenar...

Very easy to check. Use the combat log.
