<t> <br/> <br/> Combat Value is something that actually has very little to do with combat.<br/> <br/> It is a calculated value based on what ready elements a unit contains. There will be several multipliers/divisors. Finally, at the end of combat, the CV of the attacker will be compared to the CV of...

<t> <br/> <br/> Freight is freight. Nothing else. Only when a unit 'needs' or requests stuff will that freight be converted into ammo/fuel/supplies/replacements.<br/> <br/> If freight is lost in transit, it is only freight. The actual items lost is converted into stuff which is removed from the pool...

Perhaps it may not have been recon'ed enough. The mission won't hit a target it doesn't think exists, or thinks is already severely damaged.

I have received my manual...the package showed some signs of leprechaun's attempting entry, but the book withstood their assault and arrived in mint condition.

Time to relearn the game....starting with the new air system.

<t> <br/> <br/> Well, I didn't disband all my infantry. I left full corps on the westwall, and had about 5-6 more to provide flank protection. As well I had even built 3 infantry corps that arrived in time for Case Yellow. A quick count shows I have about 20 infantry corps on the map.<br/> <br/> The...

<r> <br/> The 'secret' to defeating the French quickly is Armour. Disband all your bombers on the first turn. They are very useful units to be sure, but not as useful as the Panzers you will buy with them.<br/> <br/> Buy three panzer corps first turn. Then buy one a turn (disbanding infantry) until ...

<r> <br/> Hex 187,34 has a road hex in it, and it needs to either go, or be turned into a Rail line.<br/> <br/> Right now the only effect is to completely prevent units from getting supply in Turkey through the ports. Instead, supply is assumed to come from the last rail line before the road, and is...

You do know that anyone with a large surface fleet can port attack and get a surface combat in his favour, right? Don't use carriers, they are not very good at port attacks, just drive all your BB's up and sink the fleet in port

<t> <br/> Well..I didnt do it....so hard to tell what might have been. He had 9 fleets in it when I thought of it. Not sure if having it disappear would be useful to the British in the short or long term. But a better question to ask is: Would the loss of the para and inf div be worth the loss of th...

<t> <br/> <br/> After a series of unfortunate events I have returned to the scene. As the guy playing Sveint, who feels that the allies are too strong against Germany...I do have some thoughts on the subject. Better late then never I suppose.<br/> <br/> 1) The French will fall....they can't hold out...

Last time I conquered France I got all the colonies as the Axis, but the fleet came back in as British reinforcements.

<r> Well...I decided to try the Matrix version. Updated it with the auto update to version .71. I still get the same error message only this time it is upside down <E>:)</E><br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <IMG src="https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/upfiles/29532/65BFBCA21B1D4FC28843F1A4E48E9737.jpg"><s>[im...

I use the steam version....and I when I run the game, I get a pop up message saying Beta Expired, then steam shuts the game off

Version well...it's Steam..it is the most recent version. 1.blah.71

I'm guessing......now

I think you can consider me a very strong opponent, whether Axis or Allied. I'd be willing to play you if you are still willing.

<t> <br/> <br/> Rather then disband and rebuild the Mech, I used it against the Finns. It is very good as a garrison, as the Finns can't really attack them even when they are crappy...and I could build up experience with them by attacking the finns with them (the 20%-ers die, and are replaced by bet...

<t> <br/> <br/> In my ongoing game as the allies, I am nearing the end of 1942.<br/> <br/> I am trying an experiment. The British, I kept their fighters as Interceptors. So I disbanded their escort fighter and replaced it with an interceptor. I also built an extra interceptor for the Canadians. They...

The problem with Escort fighters for the Germans is you have to devote tech points to both Interceptors (since you start with them) and Escort fighters (since you want them)

I'd rather be focused on as few techs as possible to max them out as quickly as possible.

the game does not use Steam for multiplayer...so you will have no issues. I bounce between the two without noticing any difference

It wasn't us panicking..it was the AI
