RE: Destroyed my logistical chain with one unit

File sent.

I found the logistics a bit challenging, but learning where to build and when to upgrade truck stations resolved most of my issues. Also knowing how to use the traffic signs is pretty important.

RE: Destroyed my logistical chain with one unit

In later turns he did start requesting ridiculous amounts of fuel....heavy tank with a triple diesel engine....

RE: How Will This Differ From SC:WWI?

<t> No strategic decision making dialogs. Politics is severely restricted. Nations don't have much character. Lack of important flanking considerations.<br/>
<br/>
On the other hand, a ton of effort has gone into balancing, aesthetics, simplicity in empire management and UI, and good AI.<br/>

RE: Forced to use gas?

<t> I agree that gas attacks should be a part of the game for the reason you indicated, but there should definitely be a choice to the be the fist side to use it. Since there are political ramifications, it seems entirely reasonable that one would decline to be first to pursue a less belligerent ...

Forced to use gas?

<t> I upgraded my arty and now my next attack has to be gas? How about I can upgrade my atry and have the option to use gas if it is available? That would seem to be more in line with how a decision like that would be made vs just shooting the next batch of shells regardless of the label. I'm not ...

RE: First Impressions

<t> My first impression is that this is a solid game. Graphics, sound and music are good. The AI is an order of magnitude beyond C:EaW (as was intended), and holds up rather well overall. There was one moment when the Germans led with their artillery during Schlieffen that I thought was odd. Anyway ...

RE: A Question About Research

I also think this should be in the menu. It's fine to have a default for new players, but allowing the user to customize their game settings is always a welcome addition.

RE: Anyone else have problems with Plimus?

RAWR!

Need to get those automated processes executing correctly, then you don't have deal with jerks like me.

I opened a ticket and they are sorting me out. I appreciate the rapid communication and decisive workaround.

RE: Anyone else have problems with Plimus?

It gets better. So the transaction is charged to my account on USAA as PLIMUS INTERNATIONAL L; however, I haven't even received an email that this transaction ever happened. Yes, I checked my junk folder.

Since it's amateur hour at the store, I opened a help ticket.

Anyone else have problems with Plimus?

<t> I placed an order with my USAA credit card and I'm told I will receive an update as things develop?<br/>

5 or 10 years ago this may have been acceptable, but today this is a sign of incompetence either by policy or technology. In either case, there is a leadership problem. I have never ...

Need a new manual...

<t> Is there a download that members can access? I've been looking around but can't find it. If that is not possible, can I order another one? I legally own this game and I'm guessing some1 can verify my member account rather quickly. Anyway, I need a new manual and any help would be appreciated. PM ...
