Day 1, turn 2. I've played about 4-5 battles into turn 2, and only 1 artillary strike; no mortor. I've since started an Axis campaign as it's much more challenging.

One thing I noticed is that the Axis AI didn't use any of its artillary or mortor assets. I was expecting to get hammered, but no off map fire was used in any battle I played the first turn of the grand campaign. I quickly started a campaign as the Axis just to be sure that they actually had mortor and artillary to assign, and they have 7 of each.

I'm half way through the second turn and I only got hit with an arty strike during one battle (which was pretty impressive). Considering the amount of big guns actually brought up for this operation, its just a little jarring to notice such a glaring lack of use... Shocked

Played through the first day as Elite Allies Vs. Recruit Axis AI. Pretty impressed so far. I haven't actually lost any maps yet, but I did get smacked around a bit in most of the battles.

Otherwise, I'm really impressed Very Happy

"Enhanced head-to-head combat modes including: 24/7 campaigns."

Any further details on how this is going to work? I'd love an easy way to play a campaign but with human opponents, but I can't figure out how they would pull something like that off with the stragic map and battlegroup movement. Or would it just be similiar to the "massive" multiplayer setup in CoI?

Thanks!

I could live with the Russian human wave of stormtroopers from hell, even all my tank and infantry guns exploding w/ in the first 30 seconds of every battle no matter where I put them, but the effectiveness of the german infantry's anti-tank drove me nuts. I finally had enough when I had 3 shermans laying down fire on 2 squads of stormtroopers at 197 yards, only to watch them get picked off one by one in a matter of seconds.

So I opened up TT's weapons file with qclone, and saw that the statistics for panzershreks and fausts 100 were ubercrazy! Their accuracy was maxed (on a bell curve), their armor penetration better than an 8.8, and their fire was indirect. I don't like feeling like my tanks are more of a liability than anything, so I modified their values to be slightly better than a bazooka and faust 60 respectively.

So far I'm really pleased with the results. My armor is still getting busted if I'm too careless, and the battles are still a challenge. Now, laying down suppressive fire, popping smoke, and backing out of range or LOS is actually a viable counter to an infantry AT attack.
