These are extra, tougher objectives that only advanced players will be able to complete. They are varied and can include such things as capturing all the Victory locations to limiting your casualties or achieving your objective in a shorter time. The achievements add replay value to the single player missions. text/html 2020-11-01T00:59:54+00:00 http://gamewiki.slitherine.com/doku.php?id=ba_battlefield&rev=1604192394&do=diff The battlefield is split in to square tiles. Each unit occupies a tile. Units move in tile increments and never end part way between tiles. Buildings, forests and hills block line of sight, so set your fire positions up carefully. You will only see enemy units on tiles you have line of sight to and that are within spotting range. Tiles you cannot see into are darkened within the shroud. text/html 2020-11-01T00:59:53+00:00 http://gamewiki.slitherine.com/doku.php?id=ba_bonuses&rev=1604192393&do=diff Airstrikes, Bombardments & Bonuses On some missions you’ll see icons at the bottom left of the display. These allow you to call in fighter-bombers, or bomber or artillery strikes. Note that there is delay between these strikes being called in and their arrival. Be sure to plan where the enemy will be when the strike lands, not where they are now. Fighter bombers are called in on a specific tile by selecting the fighter-bomber icon, then the target.

After this, you’ll move on to North Africa in 1941, where the German & Italian forces under Rommel take on the British 8th Army.

As in the real world, if a man is hit, it means he is too badly wounded to fight or dead, but either way he is out of the battle. If a tank is hit, the shot either bounces off it’s armour or it penetrates inside and the tank is knocked out.

So we have added the ability to create mods which use simpler, 2D visuals. These mods are only playable from top down (obviously!) and their visuals will be simpler than 3D versions. Currently no animation is supported, but the system does allow for emitters for particle effects etc. This can result in good looking battles from much simpler assets. text/html 2012-11-10T13:12:00+00:00 http://gamewiki.slitherine.com/doku.php?id=ba_modding_advanced&rev=1352553120&do=diff One important point to remember is to never (ever!) change files in the main installation directory. This can break the game, prevent updates from patching correctly, and will prevent you from playing multiplayer games.

We suggest using a fixed, unique prefix when naming your campaigns (a good example would be your forum username) - this means there won't be any confusion when you share your campaigns with other players. For example, if your forum name is Patton, then you would begin the names of all your folders with Patton_, and also the display name for your campaign. text/html 2012-03-21T17:08:12+00:00 http://gamewiki.slitherine.com/doku.php?id=ba_multiplayer&rev=1332349692&do=diff Battle Academy includes a very comprehensive and easy to use multi-player system.

When a unit is selected, all the tiles it can move to are highlighted. Also, most units will have the option to “Move Fast” or “Hunt“. Moving fast gets to the destination quicker but makes you much less accurate if you attempt to shoot that turn. When hunting, you move slower but have no accuracy penalties and are more likely to sneak up on enemy tanks and get off the first shot. text/html 2012-03-21T16:37:39+00:00 http://gamewiki.slitherine.com/doku.php?id=ba_promotions&rev=1332347859&do=diff When a unit kills an enemy unit, it can gain experience.

This is now the recommended way to order the AI's unit around. The Order List Team orders include a destination (either an AI point or a tile coordinate), and an aggression to use for the order.
