It is totally playable provided you change your fighting habits!!! Don't waste your ammo! Let the russian progress and shoot them at close range! This is what is new and interesting in the mod.
But once again, SOC with more ammo would not be SOC any longer.
Yeah, thats exactly what u should do, dont waste ammo. Im playing with no time limit and no moral limit, just with taking all VL-s with 2 mins warrning... and yes, sometimes a battle is taking more than an hour, even two.. but i like it that way, its just like playing chess, and im wining every battle with germans.. mod is just great as it is. EVERY SINGLE BULLET COUNTS.
The only thing that is frustrating is that bs of pathfinidg for wehicles, but its the game engine to blame only.
For those that have "saving ammo" problems, someone said earlier not to be lazy, click, play, u are the commander after all... but if u realy want for your tank to fire all of his shells, just do this: when u see a gunner displaying saving ammo, just put a wehicle or gun to ambush. when u c a gunner turned from saving ammo to green "ambushing", just click fire on enemy unit u want them to fire at.. and they will fire. repete these steps untill they left with no ammo hehe.
pzjager, thx man for this great mod, u got me realy inspired to make a great mod like that. i was planing this 10 years ago, with CC2, but i didnt have enough resorces on the internet to do a historicaly correct battles, now i found them and soon i will start making something. Im going to try to create a last battles of the german 97.th corps and parts of the yugoslav 4th army in "Battle for Rijeka", something like that
yup, realy great mod! germans are outnumbered and dont have ammo for normal ranged fights. this is a real close combat. its the first time i have to apply completly new tactics, ambush and wait for russians to come to 20m or even closer to destroy them and then quickly scavange for their guns and ammo. and thats how ull start wining battles...
and yes, russians are rushing, and that realy looks scarry haha, when u see 20-30 men running toward your mg post, plus some armour waiting from behind...
realy nice man
Hi there
First, i must say, grat job with that mod! I like it already, though i played only firs battle so far hehe
Im playin this CC since CC2 came out, i think somewher in '97 if im not wrong, and its still the greatest ww2 strategy game for me.
Keep up the good work man :ok2
And, just a little comment, nothing to worry about... i noticed that u named a croatian unit SRIJELACI... it should be STRIJELCI for plural, singular iz strijelac (rifleman), so its not strijelaci, but strijelci (riflemen). Just a little grammar correction. Sorry i just have to notice that.
I know i am going to have great fun with this mod.
