<t> If you like WITPAE, you will probably like WITE, you can dig as deep into your forces as you wish, down to squad level. At the same time, unlike WITPAE, you can play purely at the divisional level and let the AI handle a lot of the stuff.<br/>

I have both WITP/WITPAE, but never went more ...

<t> I don't think lack of specialized landing crafts was as major an issue as everyone seems to think, after all the Japanese conquered a big chunk of the Pacific in 41-42 with only basic landing barges.<br/>
<br/>
The bigger issue was the fact that you needed air and naval superiority for the ...

Thanks, it had not occurred to me to look there. Sometimes, something is too obvious.[:)]

This is probably a silly question, but is there a screen which shows the current level of Admin points? I have the checked the manual and the various game info screens, but can't seem to find it.

<t> wanting to "balance a game" has to be the silliest reason I have yet seen to try to rewrite the history of the Eastern Front. [:)]<br/>

In between WW2 Nazi/Soviet propaganda, Nazis/German generals/Soviet politicians trying to cover their butts, Right/Left-wing fanatics who have a ...

<t> You can't use Beevor to criticize Glantz, their books are aimed at totally different publics. Beevor is a general historian who writes for the general public. I had read his book on "Stalingrad", it is aimed at readers who do not know the story and basically just retells the same story that has ...

I was getting used to beta updates every 2-3 weeks, but 13 came out early june.

So, is the game "finished" or is it vacation time? [8D]

<t> just wanted to make some comments on late winter based on personal experience. I live in Montreal, Canada which has a similar climate to Russia.<br/>
<br/>
Snow will usually accumulate all winter and be at its highest in march. When the snow melts, all the water gets absorbed into the ground ...

<t> yes, although it is hard to know what impact ultra had on the land war.<br/>
<br/>
US and UK broke the Japanese and German naval codes and where able to track individual ships/ U-Boats. However, some codes were never broken during the war and operational/tactical orders were generally not sent ...

<t> apparently, the Russian secret services had spies troughout the German high command, including some very highly placed during the entire war. They kept the Russians informed about all moves the germans were planning, including the exact date and plan for Barbarossa, Case Blue, Kursk.<br/>

<r> I would'nt say evil, people are motivated by personal interest. Germany was one of the most educated, cultured nation in 1932. Certainly anti-semitism was rampant in Europe and North-America in the 30s. But going from resentment towards Jews to thinking it's fine to gas millions of men, women ...

<r> It has always been an open question the extent to which ordinary Germans participated in the Nazi crimes and whether it was a one-off thing.<br/>
<br/>
Certainly the evidence shows that many more people were aware of the Holocaust than admitted after the war. You needed a huge organisation to ...

Do we need to instal 1.04.39 and/or 1.04.40 before 1.05.18? I noticed 1.05.18 is only slightly bigger than 1.04.40



p.s. - thanks for all the hard work.

<t> Why take Riga with your mobile units? It can be done, but leaves your Panzers a bit out of position for the drive on Leningrad. Your infantry units can deal with Riga.<br/>

I have been instead using my mobile units to drive straight on to Pskov via the gap north of Kaunas. I have managed ...

<t> I still had or have many of these monster board games, SPI's War in the East, War in the West, War in the Pacific. (unfortunately, Wite and Witw were destroyed in a flood decades ago).<br/>

Hello<br/>

When I read about Me 109 F2 and F4 it often it is said that the f2 used the DB 601 N engine and the F2 the DB 601E. Maybe I am wrong.<br/>

<t> For the German Army, I can see the advantage of Corps HQs in extending the supply line, as well as C&C/support units.<br/>

But what about Army/Army Gruppe HQs? I see they help again with C&C/support units, but do they have a role in the supply chain? I did not see anything about this in ...
