Re: Can't get TOE to work across the sea

Do you have cargo ships in a port, source (preferred) or destination?

I like to have a my big HQ in a port city with vessels in the HQ. I try to have a port on every land mass with a HQ and cargo ships.

Good luck.

Re: Advanced Tactics UPDATE is HERE!!!

This is really the only game I play, which makes me wonder why I bought all these other games.

I have been playing the global World War II Mod : GD1938v3 by Claus Füssel. This wonderful game has given me immense pleasure since March 10th, 2014, a decade. What a fine game!

Re: All things Football (soccer) related

I am enjoying these games a great deal. I have been pulling for Netherlands, Brazil, Australia, USA, and Denmark. These are all nations of my current gaming crew.

I have been most impressed with England, who seem to be giving a seminar. Their play seems a cut above.

My neighbor and I both enjoyed it. He was a surface officer in the USN and watched it twice.
