I have to make a list of changes, there are many, mostly graphics, but there are numerous loads added, all weapon range and penetration data was redone to reflect penetration at 30 degrees 500 meters. all armor was adjusted to compensate for the fact SB uses the side armor for what is entered into the armor section, then 150% for front hyits, 75% for rear. I went with an armor effectiveness based on an average of the three, with a 30 degree slope. Combat results are a bit more as well for infantry fighting, and the X factor was used in almost all weapons so they don't lose effectiveness, didn't like that for larger scenario's.I added over 20 countrys, 700 plus vehicles and weapons, there are around 30 scenario's with release, and a few more are in development right now, just uploaded one to the database, Thorn in the Side. Early 1940 British vs German action. Hope you are enjoying it!

Thanks very much.

I certainly am enjoying the mod. As a new player I've been surprised at the lack of effectiveness seemingly used to replicate ammunition use. With all of the MGs I've used you might need to change a barrel over fairly regularly but unless you warp it, and the weapon is generally maintained, it's not going to become useless instantly..

The scenarios also seem to be nice and short which I do like as this game seems to be better suited to smaller scale company + action.

I hear ya, the effectiveness thing bugged me to no end, I used the same M-16 for 4 years, it sure didn't lose any effectiveness! I get it, was attempt at ammo depletion, but doesn't work, cou8pled with the fact the combat loses were almost nill before as well, was a shoot-fest with little to no results most times...boring! You should notice more casualties now.

Hi Warhorse, I think the link to the mod is down? It leads me to an empty OneDrive page.

Tried Firefox, Chrome and Edge. The OneDrive page tells me the files may have been removed or I have no permission to see them.

The Forgotten War link works fine, though!

RE: Squad Battles-WW2 Mod released!
Finally got the mod! Missed the sale due to my thesis paper, but oh well.

Impressions so far are very favorable. I'll have some spare time soon to play it against a human opponent.

Good work Mike! Any ETA for desert add-on?

Thanks! I think the latest upload has some desert battles in it by accident, they all have a (WD) prefix? Let me know, ok?
