There were many cases in which the broken unit was automatically eliminated if it could not be removed. In ASL, the broken units had the 'obligation' to retreat to a terrain of concealment (woods, buildings).

Obviously, LnL is a simplified version of ASL, and I do not like it either. In LnL the SW never break or run out of ammunition or gas, and this also happens with vehicles and Teams.

I am evaluating these rules for my new mod, and I would like to know your opinion about:Ģ) Weapons of support integrated in heroes or squadĤ) Same movement for shaken and healthy units. In this way the AI would be more effective. And all shaken units would maintain the same movement points as if they were healthy. On the other hand, not having leaders all the units would have Self-Rally. So that a squad when taking casualties loses the support weapon, also the support weapons can be integrated into a hero, so that when wounded, he loses that weapon, and if he is healed, he recovers it, this would be closer to ASL. Integrate in the units the support arms and the leaders. It has occurred to me to simulate these ASL rules the following. And the broken units always had the option to retire.Īnother thing that I do not like about LnL is how bad the AI uses the leaders, they just move them in search of shaken units, and many times they leave them immobile at the mercy of the enemy. In ASL I remember that the flamethrowers were quickly unusable, it is logical, they run out of fuel, they explode, or they break down. Other things that hit me from LnL with respect to ASL, is that the support weapons never break down, and the ease of eliminating units shaken in melee combat. Only ones that had a firepower of 2 were Waffen SS, Fallschirmjager, and Pioneers. Most German Wehrmacht units have a firepower of 1 (with one exception) - examples are 1-6-4, 1-4-4 with either 5 or 6 Morale. I just found a Tactical System Nationality Capabilities chart over at Lock 'n Load. But don't hold your breath! I have never created a scenario in my life other than a little test in HoS. I may get the courage to dapple in some ASL conversions if I can get the maps. If you have any questions, I can help you. For example, in Barrikady you already have all the material available. I take this opportunity to invite you to publish a scenario that you have created yourself. The FP, of course, has nothing to do with it. Morale in HoS is somewhat lower for most units, so I think that 1 point of difference is reasonable. The equivalent (in my opinion, debatable, of course) is the German squad 2-6-4-6 (I have also called it first line).īoth have the same range and ability to move. I guess you're asking about the German squad 4-6-7 (first line). Specifically, your question about the unit USA 4-6-7 I think it does not exist in ASL. Finally, I have decided to forget about the Power Factor of HoS because it does not follow the same pattern as that of ASL. I'm following the 'test and error' method, you know.įor example, I do not understand how it is possible that a unit of Heroes of Stalingrad (HoS) has a FP = 0. Do you have a method for mapping ASL units to HoS units? For example, if ASL uses a 467 what is the equivalent in HoS?
