RE: Battle results

<t> I'll second this. Not knowing the composition of a force that has just assaulted your city or attacked your single Corps can be a critical disadvantage for the defender. In the original EiA all the players were allowed to see the results of a battle. This means that the attacking player was much ...

RE: If you add one optional rule, this is the best...

<r> Probably the easyest way to code a rule like that in EiANW would be to limit the number of Corps that can receive depot supply in<I><s>[i]</s> each area <e>[/i]</e></I> for example to 4+the forage value of the area. So for example in an area with forage value 6 the maximum would be 10 Corps ...

RE: 1.06 Release notes

<r> Agree with bresh, security is key to enjoy PBEM and I am seeing this in a couple of games when after several months of playing we are in danger to stop because of suspicion about the "luck" of just one of the players. This can easily push toward the cycle: <I><s>[i]</s>lots of effort in months ...

RE: playable yet? Part II

<r> [&:] Am I missing something? Im my PBEM games all I can see in the log is where the battle is and who wins/loses. Nothing about chits/losses/force composition. Where in the log is this information?<br/>

Also in the original ftf EiA everybody could see the full information on the battle ...

RE: playable yet? Part II

<t> I agree on that. A small report on battles should be available for everybody to look at including:<br/>
<br/>
-participating forces<br/>
-chits picked<br/>
-round foughts/losses/final outcome.<br/>
<br/>
Maybe the easiest way would be to make the final battle screen available for all ...

RE: What would you like to see next in EiANW?

<t> Would put PBEM security on top of the list. At the moment just one cheating player would ruin months/years of play for everybody else [:-]. I believe that this is what is discouraging quite a bit of people from buying the game now. <br/>

Streamlining PBEM should also be a must as I can ...

RE: Cheating

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Sounds bit like my idea, though its not 4 die rolls, its possibly a ton of dice rolls, since to reinforce, you gotta roll for all avaible(there could be several single corps/stacks adjant).

RE: Cheating

<t> There is another solution that I think is much easier to implement: add an option that allows the game master to generate die rolls and to selects the chits in selected battles. <br/>

When there are important battles:<br/>
- the phasing player sends the battle file to the GM <br ...

Thinking about buying the game but...

<t> I' m thinking about getting the game. I am a fan of the original EiA and I appreciate the efforts the developers put in this computer version. However, a major issue for me is the possibility of cheating in PBEM - don't want to put weeks/months of my time in a game that can be ruined by even ...

RE: day one

<t> rtrapasso, the story of the low morale of italian air units is another much stereotyped concept. Italian pilots were, in reality, held in high esteem even by the Germans and Rommel himself. The weak point of the Italian air force was in the logistics: few spare parts, low quality materials (many ...
