New manual

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

New manual

Post by Chris21wen »

Manual v3 beta, with pasted changes and a partial index (long job).

This manual includes all 'New features' from all patches up to and including the latest that appear in the 'WhatsNew.pdf' including the new supply system.

Some effort has been made to remove inconsistency of terms. i.e. Tooltip/pop-up, leader roll/leader check, air base/airbase and others.


Updated Manual v3 - https://btcloud.bt.com/web/app/share/invite/SaPyCVTB3b - Pasted in changes shown in red

Updated Manual v2_5_5 - https://btcloud.bt.com/web/app/share/invite/DNROso6WTc

@Chris: Are you okay with it if this document is included in the library of WitE resources?

Well, it's not only new information, it's new system in place (now I have to hook it up to CR, and run longer tests comparing it with the old), with multiple enchancements over the old (sadly, rail throughput is not something that can be added).

Chris, sorry for hijacking your thread. Over and out.

LOL, in the new system German rail was put under heavy stress from turn 2, being able to deliver only 40% of required goods. No "Rail East" modifiers were necessary.
