Changes for Smolensk '41 Version 2.02 Gold - New 2D Graphics Engine - Optional Smolensk Big map with extensive German naming by PhilippeÂ. File name is Smolensk Big German. Delete the original Smolensk Big and copy Smolensk Big German and rename to Smolensk Big. Smolensk Big - orig included to allow reversion to the original map. - New Optional Rule - Extended Patrolling. when this rule is selected, Patrolling units will cancel deception effects of both partisans and deployed deception units. If not selected Patrolling only cancels the deception effects of partisans. - New Optional Rule - Amphibious Movement. When this rule is selected, Amphibious units can move through a single water hex at the cost of its full Movement Allowance. It can only enter and exit the water hex via a non-water hex. - Special Engineering vehicles expanded to allow the British AVRE's unique capabilities. AVRE's can build bridges, clear mines, and damage anti-tank ditches. - Revised Optional Rule - Recon Spotting. A recon spotting attempt may spot units at a range of current visibility plus one hex. The plus one hex has been added. - Added ability to Highlight "Patrolling Units" from the View -> Highlight menu. - Fixed an issue where destroyed full-hex ferries allow supply to flow across them. - Added Limited Objectives, which are objectives that expire after a set number of turns. When an objective expires, the side that held it at the moment it expired will gain the points and the objective will be removed from the map. When objectives are removed from the map then they can no longer change ownership; the ownership and points awarded are permanent. If an objective is a Limited Objective, then the Objectives Dialog will now display an "L" and a number. The "L" stands for "Limited" and the number listed is the turn number that the objective will expire (the objective will expire after that turn has been completed). - Added Rail Capacity Variation feature that allows the rail capacity of both sides to be adjusted on certain dates during the scenario. Any changes in rail capacity will be listed in the Command Report dialog. - Added a Replacement Rate Modifier value in the PDT, which allows the overall replacement rate of both sides to be reduced or increased depending on campaign specific considerations. After this change, standard replacement rates will now be 1/2 in general, but in Serbia '14 specifically replacement rates are very low, or non existant due to the theater. - Added a Mountain Unit flag which can be given to all types of units. Mountain Units have... *the ability to move through cliff hex sides *1/2 the normal combat modifier associated with terrain elevation differences *1/2 movement penalty associated with embankment and escarpment hex sides *1/2 the movement penalty associated with moving up terrain eleavtions *1.25 times higher VP value than normal infantry *a new map symbol - Added an "Irregular Unit" status, which can be applied to units in the Order of Battle.

That said, Siege Guns are still less effective versus bunkers than redoubts and forts because bunkers are much smaller targets to hit. - Added the IS GLOBAL attribute to Supply Variations. When specified, the variation will affect both the on map Supply Sources and the Global Supply value. - Fixed an issue that caused the Victory Dialog to not be displayed in a PBEM game when the replay of the last turn was skipped. - Fixed an issue where horse units in Travel Mode would suffer Night Disruption when crossing a Light Bridge. - Fixed an issue where the Strength Dialog would be scrolled to the bottom of the Order of Battle when the dialog was opened. - Added a feature to allow Exit Objectives to be specified as Exit-National, which only provides Victory Points if the units exiting the map match the nationality of the Exit-National Objective. - Change so that minefield attacks against Naval Units are multiplied by 10. - Change so that the Digging-In probability in the Parameters Data can now be a decimal number. - References to Ferries removed from the master maps.
