ah did I just waste everyone's time... shit sorry... some reason I thought you just need them where there are the partisan images, I'll have to go look up Manchuria garrison rules

Update: After war declared on Netherlands/Belgium (not Lux) and one more turn (March 1940) we now have Russia mobilization at 63% (vs. 17% in the other game) and USA at 34% (vs. 24% in the other game)... How is this possible with no diplo?

<t> In a mirrored game... It is Feb 1940 in both games, same events (no annex of Lith by Germans, Finland event war in progress in both). No war declared yet on Lux, Belgium and Netherlands.<br/>
<br/>
Russia is at 48% mobilization in game 1 and 17% mobilization in game 2. Is this possible without ...

Bummer, I thought Elvis was doing reasonably well in both games

but i think armies do ok in mud/frozen (not great but better than tanks/mobiles?) dunno

Vamanos!

<t> I realized yesterday that well I understand combat odds at a high level (ie. more reliable, more supply are good things), given all the rule changes through the patches, I don't have a good grasp on battle odds. For instance, I had mobile inf fully upgraded against fully upgraded army - the ...

Preference is to play through to the end... but fine if at least till end of 42...

I'm willing to play Taifun. I've limited experience (like 8ish games) but haven't lost yet. Would love to play mirrored if possible

<t> I guess this is a long shot - in an ELO game with Azhraden and due to a long summer holiday the game was delayed for a month. It seems the game was auto resolved as incomplete after the 30d of no action... we were right in late 41 teeing up for an exciting 1942... Anyways, doubt it can be ...

ELO games started (mirrored)
ruskicanuk vs. Azhraden

thanks Bill, epic community engagement!

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>the rules are below but yet I moved the garrison from Oran to right beside Algeries, moved out the guy in Tunis and Damascas corps moved to the coast (right beside Damascus still), no other changes, and yet it still fired. Seems to directly contradict the rules. Was there a ...

<t> Got the message about losing French morale for abandoning posts in the Med.<br/>

2 more losses for petedalby. Great play from ruskicanuk. I think that takes me to 6 defeats and 3 wins.

I've played a half dozen games multiplayer, so far they went well

ah the right click worked. thank you Dazo and everyone for chipping in!

<t> thanks for that explanation. so if I open up the 1943 scenario, I observe that Iraq has 2 oil fields (30 MPP) plus Baghdad (5 MPP) and Basra (2.5 MPP) = 37.5 MPP total. Yet the convoy from Iraq only generates 19 MPP for UK (Summer, I assume no seasonal discounting). So what happened to those ...

<t> Clarification question about MPPs and Convoys. I observe that minors often send MPPs to UK that don't add up to the total production of their resources/cities (typically far less). Does UK still fetch those resources? if so, are the convoy resources "bonus" MPPs beyond what the listed value of ...

<t> I've played many ww2 strategy games including Gary Grigsby's World at War (which is a fantastic game), his more insane War in the East/West (hard core simulation), Hearts of Iron, and a number of others. I am convinced that this one is the best overall balance of complexity, fun, "what if" and ...
