#6: Re: AAR TLD Battle for Caen v0.94 nikin - Dima GC Author: mooxe, Posted: Mon Apr 21, 2014 9:28 pm I think Nikin can really improve his game if he uses keyboard commands and numbered sections.

I think he is very good regardless.

#9: Re: AAR TLD Battle for Caen v0.94 nikin - Dima GC Author: Schmal_Turm, Posted: Tue Apr 22, 2014 3:21 pm I use the keyboard commands for tank fire, ATs and mortars, sometimes for MGs. What is the "numbered sections?"

#11: Re: AAR TLD Battle for Caen v0.94 nikin - Dima GC Author: nikin, Posted: Tue Apr 22, 2014 7:55 pm Firstly shortcuts tied to uncomfortable button. Somewhere there was a topic about replacing them ...
Secondly, I have not seen enemy with whom I would have to use all features.
Dima can play better. Here he inexplicably did not use offboard arty(???).
Also failed the first battle. I did not take the road to Bayeux, because further game lost interest.
#12: Re: AAR TLD Battle for Caen v0.94 nikin - Dima GC Author: mooxe, Posted: Tue Apr 22, 2014 8:19 pm Numbered teams.... Pick a team and press CRTL 1 to number it. I do this for mortars. While I am scanning the map for targets, if I see one I just press 1, V, mouse click my target. No selecting the team from the info bar or no scrolling the map to click the team, no selecting fire commands. Left hand does the admin, right hand does the business. I do this for support teams, the numbering only works up to about 5. Any more than that I forget what teams I assigned to them.
You can certainly play Close Combat and be good without the keyboard or numbered teams. However using the keyboard and numbered teams will definitely relay your orders quicker, that is unquestionable. They work best with mortars and running troops.
Another example of keyboard use is when you see yellow smoke on your infantry, click and drag and press M!
