<t> For the record, hoping that there is some day a new edition or version of SPWaW, I post my dislike of mortar direct fire, which has been used by AI at infantry, trucks, armored cars and even light tanks to exaggerated effect. Especially the 90-120mm mortars are used to KO light tanks and armored ...

For me, it used to wipe out the ships in port list and I had to save and reboot. My latest crash cause was playing with the squadron size on RN CVs, but have not tried since the latest patch. The game just rocks!

<t> Does not the establishment of a value=1 give that indication of work in progress? It can't be used for much at that level. Air recce can prove most deceiving, rarely is a sure thing. Discerning efforts to improve a base from 3 to 4 would be equally demanding for certain types of terrain. Just my ...

<r> I am also using 4.50.14 and just now had this crash at end of day 10 or 11 at Hosingen with 502/101st vs AI/some armored KG. It was a timed out [15 min] battle and the last one of the day, maybe significant. I have played this game several times [maybe 10] to the end of the grand campaign and ...

<t> Well hi there Sardaukar! I click on the save to load, get a notice "PWHEX data differs Continue? [use keys yes or no]" I key Y and it grinds away for 30 min with no effect, and I press ESC receiving game failed to load notice.<br/>
<br/>
But, I just now tried loading an earlier backup save and ...

I was using 1106i but had a longrunning game, since Feb 2010 I think. Is there any hope for it?

Cheers, Ken

<r> Make sure the mission of the ship TF loading aircraft is <I><s>[i]</s>Transport<e>[/i]</e></I>, not <I><s>[i]</s>Cargo<e>[/i]</e></I>.<br/>

I don't recall getting any a/c out of the PI, except for some fighters with enough range and that's about it. They then died in Java, I think. You ...

Will do, many tanks! Ken

[edit to add:] OK, next move it cleared the Columbia River; that's three hexes, so the river was in flood stage?

Most appreciated. Now for the long haul to Guam!

AFDB-2 became available at Portland. It is too large to use the Columbia River and cannot leave Portland. Any ideas?

I'm playing stock campaign, using 1106i

Thanks, Ken

I wasnt sure if i can change it (not while playing it) and how the AIs handle it too? Was going to put them in proper places where they actual being built. Infact US shouldnt have that much aircraft production that high after Pearl was hit ...

<r> These mod threads for the JA make for fascinating reading and you guys are to be complimented for the research into the IJN shipbuilding program and technical developments, not to mention the associated industrial, aeronautical, land force upgrades.<br/>

My question is this. Why not ...

OK, I was wondering if AI just draws pilots for a mission, then. I had not noticed any lack of air power, just was going through the OBs on each side and wondering why it was so. The torpedo stocks are also zero, but I have been torpedoed plenty in the game by landbased aircraft thus far.

<t> Hi, I am enjoying my inaugural grand campaign in AE playing Allies, including the markedly improved AI opponent. But now in mid-December42, I find that AI is not replacing lost pilots, even though several hundred are shown in each of the time groups of the replacement pipeline. Thus forward ...

<r> ...and most WWII landings consisted of 'landing where they ain't' which begs the Q of why the contemporary OTH doctrine gets derided sometimes for advocating the same. Nobody really goes frontal if it can be avoided. For the USMC in WWII, for every Gavutu, Tarawa, Peleliu, Iwo, there were four ...

<r> I do not recall that later studies of the activities of ONI ever upheld Kemp Tolley's tales. Sinking gunboat <I><s>[i]</s>Panay<e>[/i]</e></I>, a commissioned USN warship, did not provide a causus belli a few years earlier. Early warning may have been a likely motive. The IJN made similar recce ...

<r> I am playing Allies vs. AI and I am very impressed with AI aggressiveness. I lost CI, Canton, Attu and Baker without much chance to occupy or reinforce, barely saved Noumea from the JA 16th Inf Div with rushed 8th Marines. Lucked out and saved Espiritu Santo with an early arty unit that kept IJN ...

<r> To extend the concept whole hog, the IJ player could have the option in a future AE mod to <I><s>[i]</s>not attack any <e>[/i]</e></I> US territory/possession and thus keep the US out of the war before a die roll or violation of its territory provides a causus belli [sort of like the present ...
