It's been stated in the manuals for all the SC games for as long as I can remember. Including the hardbound printed manuals.

What switches are you using? Not sure why, but apparently adding the -dd_sw switch to the command line properties has solved this issue in the past for other players.

It's not so much a shipbuilding menu as it Is a build-alter menu. As a Japanese player if you click on Ship Availability in the Intelligence menu (hotkey I) you will you see along with the list of scheduled reinforcement ships that you also have the option to accelerate or halt the building of ...

Thanks for answering. What i am really getting at is if the Europe part of World at War is the same as War in Europe. I know anything related to the Japanese is not there.


No. They're at different map scales and they don't both have all the same cities, towns, rivers, etc. Both the European and ...

The maps for all three are different. SC War in Europe has a European map that stretches across the Atlantic to the US and Canada. SC War in the Pacific's map covers the Pacific from Asia to the North American West Coast. SC World at War basically has a global map. The unit types also vary from ...

Yup. There was another thread on this subject recently...

The Kiel Canal and Copenhagen Baltic Break-in has become a well-known known exploit that would take some major redevelopment. For now I can only suggest a "house rule" with any opponents ...

Are you using the switch in the main menu game options screen or the one in preferences?

It might depend on the sort of opponent you have. Playing against the AI you can change it easily, but apparently in a PBEM game the Japanese player needs to add -cd to the command line switches. Having the -cd added should then enable the option for changing the turn number in a PBEM game in the ...

It's my understanding that much of Australia's forbidding interior is patrolled by a force of highly mobile irregulars.

I image the IJN's early radars had the same problems.


Very much so. The Japanese dominance in electronics in the postwar era is well known but during the war they still labored in the dark ages. The quality of Japanese components was so poor that most vacuum tubes failed inspection, and even ...

As interesting as all that detail is in a grand strategic command game I often wonder how realistic all the micro-management is that goes with it. At that exalted high level of command would I really be burdened with what loadout of bombs a particular air squadron will carry? What altitude it flies ...

I just play the standard game with no mods (besides art) and I send Allied subs up the Yangtze river to mess with Japanese shipping rather routinely.

You may be confusing Wakkanai, a city in Hokkaido, Japan with Waikiki a neighborhood in Honolulu, Hawaii.

I'm trying to decide which one to buy: World at War or War in Europe. Any thoughts or recommendations? I could always buy both! :D


I recommend War in Europe as a first too. Not having to figure out the grand strategy for Japan, India and China as well as every other major power simplifies the ...

Yeah, unintended multiple thread creation is an issue I've been seeing on a lot of forum pages lately. Usually, at some point a moderator comes along and cleans them up.

Not a bug but a feature according to the strategy guide for that scenario--

Just wondered if anyone ever noticed this? There is an extra option you can click once the game has started that is not in the options screen in the main menu before starting the game. Auto convert obsolete devices on/off. Wonder why it was never included in the main menu options screen in the ...

This issue gets mentioned a lot in this thread. It probably means Fall Weiss is currently in the wrong directory.

Like with a lot of previous posters here, it is possible this mod somehow got placed in with the game's official campaigns folder but since it is a "mod" it needs to go in a completely ...
