Well we need to at least pretend, there is a war going on, with your logic one should also do not defend Manila, Soerabaya, Singapore, Rangoon etc. So what do you propose, set all troops at these bases to rest or in strat mod "to not break the ...

Maybe Axis rail modifier could be changed to 50% + % of repaired rail hexes in occupied Soviet territory/2. That would make every line important. And maybe partisans could just affect this modifier rather than attacking lines directly. A lot of ...

As I wrote earlier, certain things are not modelled by the game at all and without them it's hard to replicate real operations. One example are those railways with unlimited capacity. Another is short term vehicle loss in fast moving hard ...

Abstractions because this is a game and not a full simulation that 100% reproduces the war as it was are sometimes reported as bugs or errors.

There is no need to have access to the code in order to "improve" the "AI".<br/>
<br/>
When most players refer to the AI they are conflating two different things. The true AI is embedded in the code and yes for that to be altered, access to the code ...

<r> Apart from what may be written above, AE has been around for so long and found a large, mature and stable community that this alone may warrant creating a successor. <br/>
<br/>
If there was focus also placed on AI and creating a truly functional, logical scripting language (see e.g. ARMA3 ...

I admit I haven't yet tried to micromanage the bombardments like that, but for Truk apparently I have to. Thanks for the tip. I do have Truk blockaded very thoroughly. No way anything will arrive by sea. Don't know if the AI can bring in any supply by ...

Is it possible for AI script part to have an end date and then AI switches to another part of script? That would prevent AI repeatedly trying to invade place it cannot capture. Or is this a feature already?

<r> Schlussel you almost got me interested to start a new game. I have been waiting for new scens as Andy was apparently reworking them, but the thread seems silent for a while. Thus far AI has given you a good impression of itself, at least if you ignore the air losses it has suffered. <br ...

<t> I'm following your AARs regularly and must concur with the others. Your AAR style makes for a very good read and it would be a loss if you stopped. After all, that not to many people do reply to your entries doesn't mean you don't have many readers. Just reading both sides, so probably better to ...

<t> Amazing work, indeed. Apparently it isn't that there are no more talented programmers with heart blood for WiTP AE...<br/>

Strangely I have seen this topic pop up a couple of days ago and never peeked inside. I was somehow expecting something very different behind that topic. I am sure I ...

<t> Damn, was watching this unfolding and sure to find you catching your prey. Too bad... I have been following your several recent AARs as often as I could, John, some very daring and good play from your side. Most exciting stuff! Keep it up! Can't chime in with any advice since I glanced at your ...

A free-for-all production system isn't necessary. What I would like to see is a semi-historical requisition system, where the allowances are decided by history and the player can request (not build) only historical units (giving up units used to build ...

<t> Very impressive change list. And some very welcome fixes and new features among them. Only missing a means to suppress ToE changes if pools do not require reducing the elements, or if not desired.<br/>

Many thanks to everyone involved in doing these changes, and in testing them! Above ...

Yes, there's kind of conflict between removing 1->2 and using mild blizzard at the same time. Perhaps the blizzard could be less mild without 1->2 (or 1->2 should not apply from December). Players will have to experiment and find out what combination ...

I was afraid of that, but nothing ventured nothing gained. Yes my ignorance of coding is overwhelming but to my credit, I DID think it wouldn't be easy!<br/>
