Home front HQ: Initialization, and forming of our goals and tactics.

Az · October 20, 2003, 14:15

a technical question first:
where is the most updated version of the scenario that I should download, and where should I place all of the files?

a question of responsibility second:
Who's responsible for the ein gev pocket, east of lake tiberias?

with these two questions out of the road, when time comes, I will make the moves in my region: My garrisons are severely understaffed, esp in the Jordan Valley region. In the Shore region, I probably will be able to hold ground, but only barely so, in the long run. The capture of Tantura will have to be in the hands of the northen front, unless any new units are formed in the cities under my responsibility.

In short, I have little defensive capabilities, and no offensive capabilities whatsoever. I will greatly appreciate the alleviation of this unpleasant situation.

Thanks in Advance,
General Sadeh.

I echo these questions.

Where can I dl the scenario since I obviously have an older version?

PinkyGen · October 20, 2003, 14:37

It's here.

Soon, I hope Civillian Command will allow me to take over the West Bank. Then you will only have the Jordanians to worry about.

Dr. Nick · October 20, 2003, 16:59

In any case, I will be putting more emphasis on uniting our territory when it comes to sharing units. I'm going to post orders for artillery mostly, so try and mass any available infantry where you want to go on the offensive, and hopefully one or two pieces of artillery will come the way of each front.

So that I have even LESS Forces under my command? jeez, thanks.

I'll have a whopping 3 kibbutznicks then.

Az · October 21, 2003, 14:47

I've copied all of the files from the scenario to the main menu, still it doesn't work, and I see pikemen, and musketeers.

They control, in this at least, how far we can advance. And, if you read the limits of our currently permitted advances, we can't attack far enough.

I'm not trying to put pressure on you but... wait a minute, yes I am putting pressure. I want dead Arabs.

Anyway, when will the arty be dvidided up so your front commanders may begin posting their turns? What else do you want done before the front commanders begin making their moves?

I realize this is the first turn, and thus progress in putting up the save games will be slow.

hi ,

well since some strange battles where done in the real war , and since the best way to win in the game is also to do some strange things , one can only say to drop those limits and move forward

have a nice day

Dr. Nick · October 22, 2003, 12:55

I already handed out their respective OOBs.

Basically, they control what is in their hands at present in their cities.

Unless we have some new units?

PinkyGen · October 22, 2003, 13:04

Nothing except for the boats the immigration minister has.

Well then, I suggest the front commanders snap to it then.

Az · October 22, 2003, 15:00

I've asked you a question people

: Why the **** do I still see Musketeers?

That may be why. I assume you are using MGE, and that what you need to do is put the files in a seperate scenario folder in the scenario directory.

Does anyone know if this scenario even works with non MGE?

yaroslav · October 22, 2003, 16:13

I bet if will work with FW, but not with older versions.

N35t0r · October 23, 2003, 11:39

also, if the units are .gif, and there's a .bmp unit file in the same dir, the .bmp overrides (is preferred by civ) the gif.

Az · October 23, 2003, 17:18

I have no problem with running the scenario! The problem is, how will I load the savegame?

PinkyGen · October 23, 2003, 22:12

Is the save game in the same directory as the scenario?

Az · October 25, 2003, 12:09

erm.... no?

PinkyGen · October 25, 2003, 13:10

Well, that's why. How is the save game to know which files to draw upon for units, sounds, and terrain? It needs to be in the same folder.

Az · October 25, 2003, 18:09

Made my moves, Mr Prime Minister. I would like to urge you to put pressure on the cabinet to rush buy, and build more units in the Home Front, I am suffering from severe shortages, esp. in the valley.

Dr. Nick · October 25, 2003, 19:08

Excellent. I will be putting a lot of pressure for artillery and infantry.

Az · October 26, 2003, 12:54

I sencerely think that we must create a strong military through rushbuys, and keep science level highs, so we can research the much wanted Palmach units.

Excellent, an argument for keeping up the science levels.

hi ,

, we could start by rushing each unit thats being build right now , .... they shall upgrade later , ...

have a nice day

You should get plenty of AA in your cities in turn 2. The inferior enemy planes can't fly over the British forces, for they are cowed in fear.

Do you want to be placed under arrest, insolent one!
