Operation Typhoon: The German Assault on Moscow, 1941 - cannot access the German chits

Under the German user I am unable to access any strength chits other than the 3 morale Soviet ones (which I shouldn’t be able to access). I need to be German user so I can’t see the a Soviet chits…

Check which side you’ve picked when you open the module.

I’ve tried multiple laptops, redownloading and rebooting. Regardless of if your Soviet, German or observer you cannot access the German chits. The only way you access them is if you go Solo/email but that’s not possible for more than one player. So if you are then beholden to that player not only to draw your chits but also move them too making doing log files impossible.

None of those will or could make any difference.

If these are in predefined scenarios, it’s likely that the builder of the module neglected to resign from one of the sides before saving them.

Have you tried contacting one of the project owners for the module about this?

I just wanted to be sure it wasn’t a bug or something unique to my system.

Yes I’ve reached out to Vassal developer, not heard anything yet but only been a day I just thought others may have a solution or workaround.

I downloaded and duplicated the results you mentioned. I am sending a message to the owner, Kiev as well, with recommendations for the issue, but tinkering with the module a little revealed there were additional issues with the chits as well.

Issues: Available sides are German, Soviet, and Solo/Email but the chits are restricted to side ‘Axis’ so there is a mismatch there.

Additionally, the chits do not seem to perform as intended when pulled and triggered. The chits have three layers, but do not seem to loop through the layers when triggered. I’m not sure exactly what the intended trigger result is, but it seems apparent that it is not doing anything.

I could not isolate how the German player is able to pull a Soviet chit, but ultimately it would likely be a ‘side’ nomenclature mismatch.

The issue with the chits is a known problem. You have to use Ctrl+F to cycle through the three layers.

Try this one!

Thanks everyone, the Soviet chits for morale 3 are still accessible to all but at least the Ge chits are now working. Also some Soviet 2 morale chits are still jumping to “1” on the other layers, but that is very minor and can be lived with.

Sadly, the 2.5 save files do not work with this version but it’s great going forward.

How do we mark units as isolated please? I cannot find a marker or a ctrl command to it?

This version fixes the chit selection problems and includes German and Russian OOS and Isolated counters. Just a reminder that Ctrl+F cycles through the chit values and Ctrl+R flips a unit to its cadre side. I have not extensively tested but it seems okay,
