Just in case you haven't seen....

This mod comes with a 3-mission campaign. The missions are exceptional!

I'd love to see a modern conflict mod with the BA2 game engine. More specifically, I think the BA2 engine would be great with a focus on low intensity conflict: Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Eastern Ukraine, etc.. Is there anyone out there that is interested in seeing modern conflicts? I would be happ...

You do realize that the vanilla campaign for PC1 was more or less (I'd say slightly less) a re-hash of Panzer General? Exactly my point: how is that acceptable? There could've been something done to innovate - maybe a focus on smaller lesser known battles - hell, something a-historical? I don't kno...

I have requested a Steam refund - pending - I have "6 hours" in game, some time was spent in the editor. Bottom Line: This game should not have been released in its current state. The developer responses of 'more is coming' is not acceptable. At least a hotfix should have been released by now, given...

folks, been playing this thing on normal difficulty and honestly I do not see how anybody can win this thing, with as stingy as they are with prestige. Time and time again my units get beaten down, drained of points, weakened to the point of worthlessness, and I have no money and tons of objectives...

Creating random battles in the editor is not a good workaround. Editors still need to script the AI units. Without scripting they will just sit there. Random scenarios generated in the Editor are exactly the same as random scenarios generated in game. Behind the scene the game invokes the Editor to...

Online MP will result in a crash to desktop if players take pause and try to replay in PBEM mode.

In single or multiplayer, it appears one can only choose 1 nation to play but not who to play against. Unless I am missing something...why is this? Fighting the USA vs the USA (mp hotseat) seemed...weird. Random map generator does have an option to specify a nation for each player, and you can see ...

This is game-breaking, btw.

Cannot play MP scenarios

Crashing to desktop Seems to happen when I try to play a turn from a Multiplayer game that was once played in 'online' mode (live).

All of the files are in uexp format. Unknown.

220 Steam hours racked up, still installed, and still played regularly. It's one of my top 5 games played on Steam. Still the best Slitherine release in my opinion, and hours of endless fun 1. GREAT mission design; realistic objectives and good scripting. Not gamey or overbearing. 2. Cooperative Mul...

Is there any way we can start seeing titles [Steam releases] start to utilize the Steam Workshop? It's a great way for creators to share content; pushing updates and keeping projects current. Also a great way for players to browse custom content without digging through forums, and keep their content...

Firing range will not be affected by local defense AI settings, it's determined by the unit's stats only (provided it can see a target)

Arty on local defense may try to move a bit which can be wanted or not depending on what you intend/prefer

Very helpful. Thank you.

Got it...but here's another question regarding Artillery and AA.... Will artillery be limited to firing as far as the Local Defense defines? If I assign an artillery piece to Local Defense (5), will it only fire 5 hexes? I have been using all artillery on Local Defense (8) and things seem ok, but I ...

Thanks.

Have garrison units across a front with tanks and light armor behind them that I want to use as local counter-attacks. Sounds like Local Defense (5) is the way to go.

Also - artillery and AA - what do you recommend as a setting? Static or local defense?

1.Select the mines (No Man's Land faction)
2.Choose the faction (ex Germany)
3.Place the German mines (left-click)

Thanks!


Have a scenario with enemy AI minefields, but didn't know the procedure - the result was enemy running into their "own" minefields.

Mainly the differences between Local Defense and Static Defense? Static Defense is a plain setting, whereas Local Defense has a # Hex Value that can be assigned - but what are the differences in this type of behavior? Also - How does Search and Destroy work? I had units assigned to search and destro...
