RE: Realism and naval battle

Same for ships hitting a port. If a ship got close enough to port, the docked ship would be toast.

I've had CV planes hit the port, not the ships. Haven't we heard of Pearl Harbor?

RE: Keeping Egypt

<t> I now see why I struggle in Egypt so much. This game I'm looking at readiness, supply, morale etc. The Brits suck versus Germany. How does Germany get such higher ratings? <br/> <br/> Is there such a thing as to many troops in an area stretching HQs? Despite 2 HQ in Egypt I am struggling for sup...

Unit reinforcments

<t> Most units will upgrade to 10. However, some that always cap out at less. Is this location? I notice Italy in Albania can't hit 10. Some in Egypt won't hit 10. Most in France / England will hit 10. I even have a UK sub starting in Egypt that won't go past 8. Are some troops set with lower limits...

Keeping Egypt

<t> I am starting to get frustrated with this game.<br/> <br/> I've figured out enough to keep Poland alive, sometimes into November.<br/> I've kept France alive into August plus.<br/> <br/> However, no matter what I do I am getting slaughtered in Egypt. I've put massive amount of planes. 2 HQ to en...

RE: French capitol moved to Bordeuax?

Probably the Italian slaughter. Wiped out the majority of the Italian fleet with France leading the charge. 10 Italian ships were toasted.

French capitol moved to Bordeuax?

<t> I've fooled around with multiple early games trying to get all the subtleties down before finishing a game.<br/> <br/> That message is brand new to me. Every time Paris is captured, France calls it quits.<br/> French morale is just a lousy 11%. Not enough losses before Paris fell?<br/> <br/> Wha...

RE: Lopsided in favor of Germany?

How do you break a fortress?

Hit Tobruk before the Africa Corp arrived. Hit with multiple ships, planes, etc and I didn't even to one point on the Italians.

Lopsided in favor of Germany?

<t> I've tried the allies more then once at Green.<br/> Slaughter in Poland and France is expected.

RE: Crashes at game opening screen

<t> Stardock by default loaded part of impulse at boot time. Something with impulse kept causing a crash everytime I installed. I even got it installed once, just to have the game go whacky. I've been fine since I told Stardock to load part of impulse at runtime.<br/> <br/> Did you reboot after clea...

Do you use Stardock's Impulse by any chance?&nbsp; It totally trashed me even during install.&nbsp; I had to stop it from loading part of itself during boot time.

RE: I NEED HELP IN THIS GAME

<t> Another key that helped me was leveling up.  My very first game was at easy with simple supply.  I played both sides once.  I then went to normal playing both sides once.  I then turned on fog of war, etc.  Going through the game adding a bit each time got me a good baseline.  I still need to tr...

This is a good example how one battle can turn the war.&nbsp; I will read to the end, but I suspect the axis are deep in the hole.

Bumping this back to the top, as I also got hit.&nbsp; I took all of Japan, China is recovered, I have the A-Bomb (lvl 10 bombers) and all Japan has left is some trivial islands.
