Hello

I was wondering if it is possible to have my soldiers stand to attention, like maybe once they were highlighted a button could be pressed and they would automatically form a perfect line and stand to attention. Is it also possible to have my soldiers march in a lined formation to, as I think that would be well cool and even more so watching them scatter in all directions when the enemy attacks. It is maybe possible to have my soldiers surrender if suddenly surrounded by the enemy, once my soldiers are selected and a certain button is pressed they will surrender.

Also could someone give me a step by step self explanatory on how to loop an explosion. I have read on here about waypoints, zones, triggers ect, but as I am very new to mow, I am working totally blind with the annoyance of not knowing where to go and what buttons to press, Shift, Control,l Alt, ect, sometimes hoping for the best pays off, other times I just switch the game off becos I get so wound up, becos I don't know what buttons to press.

Thanks

Shooting them does the same function tbh, you lose men and the enemy can't recruit any of them to fight for their side either.. And even if they could, one can never know when will they turn coats again.

The other stuff you suggested could perhaps be modded in, otherwise it should be directed to the suggestions thread.

Russian, mission 4.

I spent about 5 hours trying to resolve this damn mission. I'm getting sick of impossible mission (need the help of god to complete this).

I never get any reinforcement, never get any message of falling back and I must fight 5-6 tanks at once who are out of reach of my infantry and that the AT rifle can't do nothing (panzer IV).

How the hell i'm suposed to complete this? The Arty 45mm can't do s*** about those tanks (or almost) and once I start to fire,a germ tank just blow my arty with 1 HE shell. So, i must hold a bunch of tanks with rifleman, molotov coktails and grenades...

Am i doing something wrong? Is there some kind of bug? Need help.. really, starting to get pissed about this game.

Just hold until all of your guys die,then you will have the retreat order...

Feels like i'm wasting my time trying to complete this mission.


Just to show you guys,




and I didnt even bothered to show you the other side.. It was much worst, more destroyed tanks and stuff.. Oh and I'm playing at easy setting.. For god's sake, what was in the conceptor mind? Freaking ridiculous impossible missions.

I spent about 7-8 hours of playing for this damn mission, I'm about to quit this freaking game.

edit: Just watched a guy on youtube, he fight for about 15 mins on the 1st line than he fall back to the 2nd line. As for me, I fight for about 45 mins on the 1st line.. and they says "mission failed" when I get overrun by 8-9 tanks (and I killed about 8-9 of them too) What's wrong? Trigger problem?

Restart the mission then kill the tank one by one as they come with AT nade.I replayed this mission yesterday,wasent so hard...

[sa1opette]

Lol at me, I just lost 2 more hours trying to do it. Nothing except failures. I mean, I hold the 1st line for easily 30-40 mins and nothing happens. Yes, indeed, i kill plenty of those panzer and flak but, still.. I can't handle all of those..

How many waves do I need to destroy before I get the "falling back" message?

Last game, when i had the "failure" thing, I had killed 300+ mens and over 40? vehicules.. I had lost 53 mens and 1 45mm AT..

Any tips? Anything i need to know? Any secret weapons hidden in this map? Any T-34 coming to help me?

Kinda desperate and I feel like i'm wasting my time.

i've played this mission a dozen times no problem. it sound like a possible trigger problem or a bug. i don't knnow this for sure but u my want to try reinstaling the game. if u want i can give u a link to a thing that u can use to basicLy unlock all the missions and just skip that one (i had used it when i got stuck on the first allied mission(i am a lot better at high profiel desruction and myhame then being quite and sneaky weaky )).

Hey all

I am nearly through all the single player campaigns and bonus missions and want to play carry on playing SP missions etc etc.

Can anyone suggest some good community made maps and campaigns I might try out please?

thanks all

Hmmm... Soldiers is one of my favourite games, FoW was terrible and I have waited until now to buy MoW because of that. I must say I am already not liking it very much. I am on the early Russian mission where you defend while the train is loaded and I don't see how you can mine all the boundary areas before getting over-run. You can't even issue commands while the game is paused, which makes it even more difficult.
Oh well; at least I only paid £2.69 for it on Gamersgate on the weekend.
Back to hunting down Soldiers mods...
