Differnces between Spartan & GoT

Is there any list of the differences (other than scenarios) between Spartan and GoT?

Or are there none?

Cheers

RE: Alliances

Thanks. Should have been in the manual though. Perhaps it is and I missed it?

Cheers

Alliances

<t> I am playing Spartan (the downloaded version).<br/>
<br/>
In the diplomacy screen, the middle panel gives a friendship level needed for an alliance. I have been unable to find a reference to this anywhere in the manual (or anywhere else, for that matter).<br/>

How does an alliance ...

RE: New Patch

Each day, when I get to work, the first thing I do is check this forum to see if the new patch is ready. The mystery of the incredible shrinking squadrons must be solved!

Is progress being made?

RE: Fatigue calculation

Thanks for that.

My fatigue level has now (over a few game days) dropped from 68 to 60. I am preparing an assault on Shortland Islands. I now am not sure whether to send the Marines (1 and 2 Divs) back to Noumea, at a considerable logistics cost, or not.

RE: Can someone explain..

Offensive missions require a capacity 2 base, level bombers require a capacity 4 base. The only thing you will be flying from that base is CAP.

Fatigue calculation

<t> The manual states the ground units will gain fatigue every turn, but that fatigue can be reduced by various factors, such as the amount of support, plentiful supply and being in a base hex.<br/>

What I would like to know is the break-even situation. <br/>
<br/>
Assuming the the unit ...

RE: Patch 2.41: LCU's not drawing supplies

I was unable to load supplies to fast transports. I assumed that it just wasn't ever possible. It does mean that you can't use fast transport TFs for an assault on an enemy owned hex.

RE: Gary

Thanks for the explanation on the upgrade. My F4F-3 group also shrank to 8, without any apparent reason. They too seem to have stabilised at that level.

RE: New Patch

<t> I don't know if it is my ignorance, or a bug, but I have had an air group of 8 F4F-3s sitting at Noumea for 14 game turns, with 15 F4F-4s in the replacement pool. Shouldn't they have upgraded?<br/>

I also notice that the number of aircraft in airgroups tends to shrink over time, even ...

RE: No manual

<t> Now I feel really silly. Yes, there is a file called manual.pdf in the Uncommon Valor directory.<br/>
<br/>
My problem was that I naively looked in the manuals subdirectory, and it wasn't there. It didn't occur to me to look elsewhere.<br/>
<br/>
In the meantime Tom Elliott has very kindly ...

RE: Missing anchor

I didn't realize that the anchor meant docked ships. So my problem was a false alarm. And yes, the little square is green, so, friendly mines.

I don't usually make mistakes like that, but I haven't got the manual yet.

Thanks

RE: Missing anchor

However, there is a little wee square with a dot in the middle where the anchor ought to be. Excuse me if all this is explained in the manual - as described in other posts, I don't have a manual.

Missing anchor

In the scenario I am playing, Rockhampton, in Queensland, has a port capacity of 6(6). Yet there is no anchor there, and if you send ships there, there is no way of accessing them.

What does this mean?

RE: Uncommon Valor Digital Download Available!

It did include a slender an uninformative Player's Guide, relating to a tutorial (and not, apparently, the ...
