RE: Global War

<t> I ended up having the problem placing Polish units that was discussed in Tech Support. So working around that no problem. I am having difficulty with Japan transporting troops on the first impulse combined. Maybe I'm loading troops wrong...will watch tutorial again.<br/>

Global War

<t> Hello...After many years away I am attempting to play a Global War game. I keep getting "MWIF.exe An error occurred in the application" Box. <br/>

<br/>
I have up to 04 03 00 00 hot patch.<br/>

Set up problem

<t> I have started up a few games now...never really gotten anywhere past the first few turns.<br/>
<br/>
Anyway, I went to start another new game, global war, latest public patch. I get past the lend lease units, then the american scraps, then that's it. The setup pool for the Americans doesn't ...

I think this will be a busy place soon as well. I may be a little longer getting here...busy season for me at work. Others will be here shortly, I'm sure.

RE: When?

<t> My only concern with getting new people to come here would be if they do miss Nov.7. There will be a lot of unpleasant posts...not a great way to get introduced to the game.<br/>

RE: When?

<t> Personally, I don't think the people who bought at Essen actually got the game. They paid, got the books, got the maps...game to be delivered. Like I said, though, that is just my take on it. Hopefully someone who bought at Essen can prove me wrong.<br/>

I always find I struggle with many games at this scale with immersion. This seems to have LOADS of chrome..which I presume helps with this aspect. So how immersive is the game compared to other games of similar scale.

RE: How does On-line play work ?

<t> The only multiplayer computer game I have ever done was when we took a break from the WiF board game and played HOI2 on a LAN network at my office. So we were still basically face to face.<br/>

Anyway, I am really looking forward to being able to play MWiF netplay. Hopefully the computer ...

I envy you guys who can play solitaire...I've tried before, just can't do it. I'll play a bit of solitaire to learn the interface, but that's about it. Then it's on to netplay. [:)]

RE: Guadalcanal Scenario

Quick question on the carriers. Are the 2 CVP to the right of Akagi on the Akagi? You can have 2 CVP's, that in this instance add up to 4, on one CV???
