Before Jesse gets to asking, have you reported this as a bug?  
|
Great question, Phread!!  It looks like someone is trying to take over my job...

Aha, a special version of XP computers - written in invisible ink.

Could be you are missing the latest drivers for the typewriter?

Perhaps Randwulf's typewriter needs a new ribbon.
(I am old - though I prefer experienced - enough to have actually replaced a ribbon in a typewriter.)

Randwulf, there also used to be two-color ribbons for the typewriter. This will give you the color version of credits  .
Am equally 'experienced' as Phread and was using them a lot .

It's never worked for me; I suspect it's a video driver problem, but since the main game works I am not going to fiddle with it.
If it aint broke, don't fix it!!

Yes we tracked down this to a graphic hardware max texture size that is less than the image that scrolls up. This can happen on lower-end or older graphic chipsets.

Using the "Behind enemy lines" card at Lisyanka, my German infantry unit was able to cross the frozen river without any dice being rolled.

Actually this is not a bug, it's the rules. Check page 39 of the Official FAQ and you'll see that a unit ordered with Behind Enemy Lines can move freely over the Frozen River and does not have to roll any dice. 
He must take his time and make sure that the river is fully frozen...

I don't think this is a bug, since a BEL move ignores terrain movement restrictions.

Maybe the airpower card had to be used as artillerie bombard?

I think I see what you are saying. Is it possibl that the BOT interpreted an AIRPOWER card as an ARTILLERY Barrage card instead.
OK GUYS AT DOW, FESS UP!!!
IS THIS HOW THE GAME IS PROGRAMMED, OR IS THERE TRULY A DOUBLE DECK BUG????
|
I think this might have come up before...where the Air Power card shows up as Barrage in the scenarios where it is used as such. Were you playing one of those scenarios? Or is it just one scenario where that rule is in place...I can't remember right now.

Answer from Eric...
| Quote: |
On this scenario, the special rules state that : "The Air Power card is played as an Artillery Bombard Tactic card: 'Artillery battles twice or moves up to 3 hexes'."
For the sake of simplicity, we simply replaced the Air Power card by an Artillery Bombard in the deck. We had another implementation, but it was way more confusing.
That explains why your opponent played it twice in a row : he actually got the
Air Power card in his hand.

This is an interesting question ... can a player commit suicide by retreating into impassable terrain?

Memoir '44 Online 1.0
Juno Beach
stevens (Allies) vs. klise 17 (Axis)
Stevens plays a MOVE OUT card and moves several infantry to attack the center German infantry unit in the bunker near the beach and adjacent to the river.
One 2-figured infantry unit attacks a 1-figure Axis infantry in the bunker in a close assault.
Stevens rolls two dice (an ARMOR and a FLAG).
These should both be misses, because the infantry in the bunker is ALLOWED to ignore one flag, but for some unknown reason (maybe my opponent chose to retreat and since the river was behind he drowned????)
the Axis unit was eliminated. This is definitely a bug.

This isn't a bug - this was the player's error.
In software development we have a special term for this "loser error" which really applies here.
An underlying questions is "How far should the program go to prevent a layer from doing someting really dumb?"
IMHO the program should enforce the rules and implement the game play.
Dumb moves or mistakes - and I have made my share of them - are the player's responsibility.

I agree...the program should not prevent people from making foolish moves but should allow them to make big mistakes (like retreating into a fast flowing river) so they can learn from these errors and improve their skill level.
