Hello again,
We have an updated version of this Beta, v5.60.021beta now available in the Members Club. This replaces .02 beta, and addresses much of the feedback we received. Are plan is to make this official next week, but thought we would have the Members look at it one more time before doing that. Thank you for all your input! Here is a list of additional changes;
Grand Campaign: Added German major supply depot on Helmond map.
506.s.Pz.Abt. no longer gets more starting purchase points on Elite than on Veteran.
Fixed extra team(s) could be assigned to a BG when it returned after retreating off the map.
Fixed a case of soldier getting into circular move along the side of a long, linear obstacle.
Fixed a case of soldier getting stuck behind an obstacle right at the map edge.
Fixed last survivor on a team could capture terrain when routed.
Timer and force morale now show up when viewing Overview screen.
Scenario Editor no longer shows the wrong battle group name in the top banner when you clicked on or very close to the diamond rectangle.
Fixed case where incorrect end game video could be shown when game ends on the Strategic screen.
Fixed case where extra Victory Location could be awarded to opposing side when one side switched front line battle groups.
Reduced chance of a gun damage result for non-penetrating hits on vehicles.
Fixed crash with custom scenario on Ravenstein map when no Allied entry zone was set.
Fixed case where a bridge could become primed for demolition when Axis captured a single bridge Victory Location.
Scenario Editor "Battle Group Info" now reflects reinforcements that will arrive in the battle group's force pool based on turn currently selected.
Reduced gun damage and immobilize chance for grenades versus vehicles with higher armor.
Reduce soldier's likelihood of throwing grenades at vehicles outside of close assault situation.
Reduced rating of anti-vehicle SP ammo (i.e. APDS) vs. infantry and terrain, so it is not used unless all other ammo is gone.
“Under repair” bridge status now cleared correctly after movement resolution when full supply is lost and the bridge is uncontested.
Battle Group Screen: Removing a team (returning it to the Force Pool) removes the surviving team members as well, rather than re-distributing them to bring other teams up to strength. Teams that are automatically removed due to excessive casualties (immediately post-battle) still re-distribute their personnel to fill out other understrength teams.
WEAPONS.TXT
Removed incorrect blast effect from 17pdr SP (APDS) ammo
Corrected 17pdr AP penetration at point blank range.
Corrected base accuracy for 3.7cm Pak HEAT round.
FPOOLS.TXT
Added header fields to control BG slot scaling.
BGROUPS.TXT
Modified KG Knaust default slot types so the AI will select tanks by default.

so far its rippin awsome!
one little thing, if a unit is depleted, removing other units to force pool DOES NOT replenish men in your unit....a step away from that bug in cc5. didnt happen in any other CC...good call.

Yeah it is good that refit system is gone because one could cheat with it. But Being used to CC3/COI I do miss the normal refit option quite a bit, the one you have to pay points for. Do I really have to disband a unit when the amount of men gets about half the original size?
I see the superstructures of certain bridges are now totally gone, like at Best and Nijmegen. I guess they could not make it work properly.
Kind of a mixed feeling about this 21 beta patch. The new bootcamp and messaging bugs are really obvious. Force strength indicator still useless. I only hope the armor vs armor, mortar strength, and infantry vs armor issues have been addressed well.

Gerwin buying replacements like CC3/COI is a good suggestion for an enhancement!
I don't think the superstructure change, like the messages, was on purpose but have something to do with the graphic/layer changes required to get the Timer and force morale to show up when zoomed out.
