RE: should i buy this one?

<t> I think this game is one of the best of the strat-level WWII games out there. Too, although it is possible to have turns take as long as described by Sgt. Rice (one of the best players out there), it is also to have them go a LOT faster if you wish. I personally, turn off all animations and ...

I am pretty sure that the network play has never worked properly and recall having seen some mention that it it has not bee compatible with many of the recent patches....

RE: Deluxe AWD

<t> Whoa Nelly! The problem with email / text is that there is often ample room for mis-communication. Intent is not always best conveyed in a simple line or two and it is easy to misconstrue and to over-react. I have experience playing both Runyan and Lebatron and believe that both players are ...

whoa.... VERY interesting game. I had written it off (should never do that with Chris or Ning) but see that events seem to have taken a rather interesting turn....

RE: Deluxe AWD

Nice touch with Greenland. Always nice to have the reference info.

As I have mentioned elsewere in the forum, I am in very much in favour of eliminating the Russian war requirement for the A bomb to work. I also support the change to suppression!

Email me when you have the time. Would recommend that you play v comp a few times to get used to suppression, map, new research levels etc.

RE: Artillery Bounce still in

<t> I really recommend that you try deluxe. The map alone is worth it. As I mentioned previously, the different suppression rules mean that AA, arty etc work differently. This results in a different mix.... A super stack of arty will never exist. <br/>

It takes a bit to get used to, but ...

RE: Balance of Play Issues

Hmmm. Watching the recent 1.04 AARs I find it revelatory that Xianing and Sgt. Rice (in my experience, probably a couple of the best players out there) have double-teamed Russia in their games vs. each other......

RE: hello from the hinterlands

<t> I am not sure where you got the quote, but my reading of it is that only one ('at least one') ground-taking unit is required in the attack for arty/aa to fire. So, if the quote is from the 1.04 readme, I would say that the implementation is working as intended. (whether one likes this or not is ...

Looking for Deluxe opponent

<r> OK, after a lot of travel, am back home for the near term. Am looking for opponents to play deluxe 1.03. Would like to play allied (need to improve my allied game, it would seem). Can generally play a turn a day depending on my schedule. If interested, let me know at <EMAIL email="sean_mcluckie ...

RE: Patch Update

<t> I reckon there are lots of folks like myself who play for a while and then (usually for work committments) take a break for a while. (Sadly, I am on a work break...) Too, there are now a few variants (stock AWD, Global Glory, and Deluxe) that all provide gameplay variety. <br/>

RE: Deluxe AWD

I think if you look under headings on axis minors force pools and national capability offsets you get a fairly comprehensive overview. This has done a lot to ...

RE: Teammates wanted for 4 player game

<t> I have yet to play deluxe as allied / russia. Would be most interesting for me to try them. But, that said, I will play any side. I will leave it to Lebatron to assign teams.... He has my email, as does Aussie. It might be useful to assign teams by timezone.... Aussie and I are two hours apart ...
