<t> Just received an email as beta tester which said:<br/>
"Thank you for helping beta test Strategic Command WWII - War in Europe. <br/>
With this new title releasing tomorrow"<br/>
<br/>
Email was from the UK so time there was around 11.00am GMT Thursday. Looks like a Friday release from UK ...

<t> Comments after 4 campaigns as Axis, full FOW.<br/>
<br/>
1) Initial issues I had with Finnish front have been resolved in latest upgrade. <br/>
2) There doesnt seem to be an ability to swap production points between the axis major allies. This may or may not be accurate, and all points may ...

<t> Ive noticed in V6 and V7 that after taking Suez and moving on to Jordan that the Allied AI sent two BB up to Suez from the south where they were easily attacked and destroyed over two turns. Once they reach the zone they dont seem to be able to retreat after being hit from SS, It BB or air units ...

<t> Ive noticed (v1.07) that when in hunt mode on the convoy routes with FOW on, the Allied player will sometimes "bump" into a Uboat with a CL, which stops, then the DD's descend from everywhere, then the CL moves off. I would have thought with the system the first encounter by the CL, which should ...

no apology needed for your impatience, I was just trying to get people to see the funny side of a 10 year wait contrasted to a couple of days wait...it is pretty ironic!

<t> After waiting for 10+ years for the PC game to come out the impatience being exhibited waiting for a shipping notice on the books is hysterical. You've got the game, you've got the manuals on pdf, you'll get the hard copy when it comes, what's the big deal? It's not as if your dealing with a ...

<t> Watching video tutorials, simply awesome. I've owned the board game for ten years, never got through the rules, looked longingly at all those counters and gave up a dozen times. The tutorials although long are really firing me up to plunge in.<br/>
<br/>
One thing though, does every narrator ...

Herwin and corbon, thanks for those eminently understandible explanations!&nbsp;

<r> <I><s>[i]</s>"If you want to simulate a turn, you can approximate f(t+dt) by f(t)+f'(t)*dt. dt is one turn. f'(t) is the slope of f measured at time t. This is called explicit integration. Or you can approximate it by f(t)+f'(t+dt)*dt. f'(t+dt) is the slope of f measured at time t+dt. That's ...

<t> Oh oh this could get ugly.<br/>
<br/>
"But it was flawed on release, still is now after many patches"<br/>
<br/>
Well, it <br/>
- worked without crashing on release <br/>
- it's getting played to death by a lot of people even those who say it is flawed/broken/blizzard is all wrong/ etc etc ...

My partner will leave me now if she finds out there is another two games to come in the series....[8D]

<t> Congratulations on WITE passing 50,000 posts. This places it third behind Steel Panthers and WITP for post numbers.<br/>
<br/>
If postings are any indication of commercial success, and they may not be mind you, then Matrix has struck pay-dirt here. Both Steel Panthers (120000 posts) and WITP ...

<t> Pocket formation<br/>
<br/>
Well one way to form pockets and I'm not suggesting this is the "right way" is<br/>
<br/>
Attack in echelon- that is, use the units furthest from the front line to move up and attack the front line. You will need to blow a hole(well probably two, one on each flank ...

<t> Well I've bought a lot of games from Matrix and many of them have been played to death for a week or two then never touched again. This is not one of them.<br/>
<br/>
This is a very very good computer game. If you are waiting for the perfect game you would never buy anything, they don't exist ...

<t> Dbeves, I didn't mean to suggest I felt the game was broken in my opening post. The comment arose from my reading of the ongoing debate on blizzard effects that "some" felt ruined the game. <br/>
<br/>
I'd re-iterate, that like many I think there may be a problem in the modelling of the ...

<t> Well maybe a bit more than 20hours for three games..time does seem to pass when you're playing. The quickness of the first couple of games may have been because I didn't read the rules for the first game [X(] and only glanced at some stuff for the second and third.<br/>
<br/>
My major supply ...

That's weird I work in Carnegie....!

<t> I have to say I've read with amusement some of the complaints about <br/>
<br/>
1)its' value for the money and <br/>
2)whether it is broken or not. <br/>
<br/>
So far I've started three campaigns as the Axis and resigned each time. The last game I lasted till the end of Feb '42 with ...

<t> Well first campaign game in progress, haven't read the rules (rules are for wimps right?), and the BEF lands in northern Poland as an Allied option! Well there's an historical variation...how are they going to keep these guys supplied! <br/>
<br/>
Anyway I've destroyed the entire force, my ...

Ok so I will, in 1800 in France a cuirassier's horse cost 300F, a dragoon's 200F and light cav horses about 100F. In Austria to equip a cuirassier cost 3300crowns, a hussar 2800 and an infantryman 200.&nbsp;
