With both SC WaW and Warplan Pacific this is a massive issue. They should use airfield boxes (or some other method) like Carriers at War 4 does it. Sorry, Carriers at War 4 ? Do you have a link to this game? Perhaps are you talking of Carrier Battles 4 Guadalcanal ? Yes I meant Carriers Battles 4 :...

I like the SC series, but modeling the Pacific War is very difficult for any game. Also single player vs AI can be tricky to model/program. The one unit per hex rule is definitely a glaring issue. In other games of the series you could overlook that when it came to naval warfare, because the theate...

So we have SC World at War, Warplan Pacific, plus other titles. How is this game going to be different other than a SC WiE re-skin? Obviously the scale will be different than WaW so smaller unit sizes as a guess. but that alone does not seem to be enough of a difference. Will WiE be able to tie in a...

You need to hire more people

Japan needs some major changes in China. China was able to overrun everything to the Russian border by '43. Wiped out Japan in China by the end of '41. Japan should get all of its historical gains by script if possible. As in my game against the Axis AI, Japan never took the PI, Borneo, Wake, or Sin...

Any way to use the 7.5 version in a 7.4 game already in progress?

Also SP as the Allies seems to be working ok with 7.4. In Sept '40

I personally would avoid the World SC game, especially in multiplayer. At least not without a LOT of house rules. I had the Axis player in my MP game invade Panama with Japan in 1944 with two Japanese corps, which they conquered (I quit the game at this point as this was so far out or reality I coul...

This mod is so awesome. I hope it continues to be developed so the Axis side can be played SP as well as the Allies.

Well, the AI would never do such a thing as to invade East of Midway, so that does not seem to be a valid argument. All you would need to do is to flag everything around HI and East of there to the West coast of the Americas as impassible by Japan. Problem solved. Nothing else in the game needs to b...

Let's look at DDay. 2 Corps, 1 US and 1 British invaded. And look at what that took to go across about a 15 mile gap. Now you are suggesting that Japan who had a major shortage of many things, including oil, could cross about 8.5K distance to deliver any sizeable force to Panama? Also, Japan had ver...

You still miss the point. No matter how much Japan 'prepared' for an invasion of anything past Midway, even if they started in 1936, they could not have done it. Period.

And house rules will not fix the issues when you are involved in tournament play.

I did not do anything to cut off the US forces. I went to the Solomans in 1942 and never went any further. The AI did take the Marshels but I did not contest that. After my initial expansion, I just stayed put and reacted to what the US did. I cannot imagine how hard it is/was to get the US AI to do...

I was not pleased with the game at release and put it aside and figured I'd never play it again. I started playing World at War with the TRP mod (which is great but not ready for SP yet, MP is good though, but it is actively being worked on) and thought why not look at Warplan Pacific again. I start...

I would be thrilled with just a World at War 2 with a bigger map Or even a DLC that had one.

I was part of a team developing a map for an open source round-based game. There was a "rule" that we were supposed to follow: -playability comes first -balance second -historic accuracy is nice to have but less important If you switch the ranking, but especially for a ww2 map the balance...

I would like to be completely pulled from the tournament. You can see this thread as to why https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 5#p5048655

I just wanted everyone to know so they would not be waiting on me for turns.

Totally agree. But there are times when that solution does not work.

Why are you are playing a WWII period game at all? Why not D&D or a SiFi game? Because that is where this game in now. I have no issues with alt-history strategies, like Japan invading Australia/India, Spain/Turkey joining on either side, and Germany capturing Egypt, etc. as these things actuall...

There is no morale drop. Just prevents travel between US East and West coasts.

Yes a larger force than a Gar could be placed there but that misses the entire point is that it was IMPOSSABLE for Japan to do this at all. At ANY time.

The game does not reflect the cracking of the Japanese code by the US. Nor does it have the massive number of search planes the Allies had both in the Pacific and the Atlantic. Especially by 1944. The Spying tech works well for the ground forces and for the Axis looking for Allied naval forces, but ...
