Playing France Cobra and I have several of these units with a cavalry symbol no less showing in the OB as FA Observers. How am I supposed to use them?

Been playing this game for a while so I'm embarrassed to ask this question: When I'm attacking but haven't directly allocated artillery support, if artillery units are set on "D", will they support all attacks in range or do I have to set them on "Tactical Reserve"?

Where is the best place on the map to deploy these units?

Oh boy - you got me on that one. Where do I find it?

<t> I continue to be baffled by this. I've played several scenarios now, which presently includes the smaller version of the Bulge. When I begin a new turn and survey the map, I see a bunch of combat units with orange stripes (meaning they're reorganizing) that were NOT reorganizing the previous tur...

Does it matter what mode a HQ is in to provide this benefit?

From reading the rules I know these HQs (and Army HQs) play a key role in keeping forces organized and supplied. BUT - what's the best mode to put them in to maximize this capability?

<t> Is there any way to control or setup or arrange for which particular units you want to actually advance after a successful attack? I'm finding it a bit annoying that advance after combat seems rather arbitrary. More than once I've had a successful attack somewhat ruined when one or more combat u...

<t> Playing Chinese Farm scenario as both sides. What do I do with these HQs? They have some serious combat power yet it seems so gamey to put them in the line (I discovered that they can also actually attack). If I put them directly behind the line in tactical support mode do they really provide an...

Congratulations OAR IV - I had hoped forlornly it turns out that just maybe, maybe, you might have done just a little work and improved the AI. NOPE! Dumber than a door nail. This game is going back on the shelf. For those of you out there contemplating buying this AI turd - DO NOT!

<t> As I am just about to finish playing an 18th month long 1944 campaign game as the Allies, I couldn't resist a parting comment - something I've commented on before ad nauseam. FIX this incredibly laborious air patrol routine! I simply shouldn't have to spend the time working this when there are f...

Playing as Germans in the 1944 campaign. Something never occurred to me even though I've been playing this game for quite a while. I have the EFB set for AI control. Does the EFB automatically handle its own depots or is that up to me to build them to support the EFB?

<t> bomccarthy,<br/> <br/> Playing the latest official version. I get everything you've written. My point, which I will continue to belabor and hammer to death if need be is that I don't want to, nor believe that I should have to, constantly spend time mucking with NP. It needs to be fully automated...

<t> It's both. I did a little research and found that the Allies lost a total of about 33, count'em, 33 transports to U-boats in the Med. The Med has been my biggest NP micro-management headache and I have had no end of trouble actually forming contiguous paths of NP coverage between all of the port...

<t> Playing the Allies in the 1944 D-Day scenario. I've been playing this game for over a year now. I've complained before and I will complain again - the most aggravating and debilitating part of this game is managing naval patrols. If I don't adequately cover sea supply routes I routinely suffer t...

Playing the Germans in the D-Day Campaign. It's now Dec 5 and the Allies are closing in on Essen and Frankfurt. Both of these locations have supply depots with tons of supply stored. Yet I can't disband them and save their supply - WHY?

Playing the Germans in the D-Day Campaign. There are certain air groups that just seem to 'hang around'. I/ZG 26 and Stab/ZG 26 are examples - I can't disband them - why?

<t> I tried doing a search as I'm sure this question has been asked before. Playing the Allies in the D-Day campaign. I'm deep into October and have encountered "Heavy Rain" for the first time. Is this a show stopper for Allied air directives - in that not many missions will fly and the hit on moral...

Well since I deployed it around the southern portion of the Rhine I was looking to attach it to OB West, which I thought was a higher HQ.

Playing the D-Day campaign as the Germans. Why can't I assign Army Group G to a HQ other than OKW?
