You aren't. Just play on simple supply or turn supply off entirely.<br/>

<t> So then you have put the burden on the player to set up experiments to discover when the code might not follow the rules (not that it would be easy to do without an editor)? That the occasional 'gotcha' will jump out and not make any sense because it wasn't documented?<br/>

See if you ...

<t> I think you are missing something here. If the Germans had not treated Ukranians so poorly, they would have not had the S&L problems. Their rear areas would have been more secure and they would have been able to bring more force to bear on Moscow. And while they didn't have a major surplus of ...

I also agree that this would be the best and simplest solution. However, there would also need to be a balance for the Allies taking Spain, such as Turkey joining the Axis or a reduced factory multiple due to unrest at home.

<t> How about where is the time? I have little free time as it is, trying to wade through a poorly written manual before I can even begin the process of discovery is quite frustrating. I play ASL and have no fear of manuals or exploration.<br/>

Your comments are lazy generalizations in and ...

<t> While there is no way of knowing for sure, it is extremely unlikely that Stalin would have declared war on Germany. Stalin was deathly afraid that Communism would collapse in such an event. The Ukraine for example welcomed the German armies as liberators -- that is until they turned out to be as ...

While a nice theory, that isn't really how it played out in WWII. Take the 53+ invasions they army did from 1943 to 1945 in the pacific. All of the fleets involved in this were self-contained -- even the 'tail'.

<t> How about having the manual match the code? Whatever happened to that? Especially since the trend has been toward PDF manuals anyway. This allows the manual to be changed along with the program until they both go gold. For a FPS this really isn't a big deal, but for a complex strategy game, all ...

<t> I was severely disappointed by the manual as well. The first Grigsby game I played was Kampfgruppe which was an excellent game for the time and had a wonderfully detailed manual. It broke down all of the factors used in the formulas and gave the formulas. <br/>
<br/>
This is probably the worst ...
