And about your Dzavhan catch… now that my tank can’t attack your mech, I remembered
A guy years ago (pretty good player) was complaining that tank purchases were always sub-optimal since mech cost 4 and tanks cost 6 and (he thought) mechs were always superior IPC for IPC. He was mainly doing calcs with big stacks, and depending on the makeup of the stacks, indeed mech are usually better.
But he didn’t take into account production limits (I’d rather have 8 mech and 2 tanks built on Germany than 10 mechs, or 3 tanks on a minor rather than 3 mechs) and also transport capacity (tank is the more powerful than mech or artillery on transport).
But now I realize another superiority of the tank even though it costs 50% more… On the open field in Siberia, a tank is 3/3 while a mech is but a 1/2 (not to mention the blitzing).
But your tac our there is messing it up. Will I actually attack the forward mech with a bare tank and follow behind it with mech/tank? LOL we shall see, probably not.

Indeed a tank at 6 is a bit expensive and you don’t see enough of the exciting unit. But a 5 is too cheap, unless you go back to the classic 3/2 ???
It’ll never happen, but I like my idea of doubling all IPCs for everything so that some things can be finetuned. Then you’d have infantry costing 6, mech 8, and you could have tanks at 11 instead of 12. (sigh) no one cares

Glad you got it working. I’ve noticed that downloading in the prerelease it takes 3 times before the map is installed. Idky that is. I think it has something to do with unzipping the maps after dl.
Anyway, just let it continue to dl itself until done.

remember to move my mech before japan
I will look into the map, but if I cant get it to work I have a pretty good idea of how the map really is so it should be fine either way

@oysteilo said in OOB Oysteilo +40 v Gamerman01 with tech - UHD map:
looks like the map is drawn incorrectly in Soviet east. It looks like japan can blitz through Dzavhan and enter Timguska. This is not possible in the original map
hence, can you edit my Timguska mech to Yenisey before you start Japan? Both mechs came from Novosibirsk
Ahhhh OK glad you said something again

🤯 😮
I’m glad, but surprised
Are you just saying that because black elk and barnee are kind of watching? LOOOOLI wanted to play it because of the beautiful color and the beautiful pieces, skin on men, and the ships
But some work is still needed, and it’s great Black Elk is happily tweaking.
I did have to look about 4 times at my tank and AA in Yakut to see where they could go… -
