Supply levels?

An nasty campaign in Serbia has left my Austrian forces there with a supply rating of less the 10%. Does this effect my ability to refit them? Ever since they fell below I cant issue any HQ's or Corps points. Makes sense if they cant.

Thanks!

RE: End around?

<t> i have noticed! the british are really landing in force in Belgium now. I am firmly entrenched and it is fall 1915. Luckily with a summer offensive i was able to push through the line and take 2 french forts and so far the breach is holding. I had to unleash a new weapon to do it though. Posion ...

End around?

<t> Its summer of 1915 and the war grinds on. Belgium is a wasteland. French, British and German troops are locked into a nasty, nasty war up there. As the Germans I am stuck. Its a mess. The Entente is taking a ton of casualties. I have entrenched most of my forces in Belgium. There seems like ...

U-Boats?

If a CP player decides to go all out with U-boats right from the start of the war, where is the best place to deploy them? The North Sea or the North Atlantic? Or both at the same time?

RE: Problem with Italy

how hard is it to get Italy to join the CP in a normal game? As I am playing my first game, I selected the Italians to join the CP so they started the game very pro-CP. In a normal setup, are the Italians right down the middle when it comes to which way they can swing?

Shipping question for CP

<t> As I am on my first campaign I have yet to get the hang of shipping. Now the Brits have control of the North Sea. I control the Baltic and have 4 transports there. Does that give me any shipping at all? So far on the Nation screen I am getting no external food or supplies, even though I have had ...

i had an Austrian general that for 5 months tried several times, but just could not take Belgrade. I transferred another general from the Russian front to the Balkens to help out as he had an extra activation point. With his help I took Belgrade ...

Changing Generals?

<t> Hello,<br/>
<br/>
A quick question. I just finished 1914 on my current campaign and continued onto 1915. I noticed however that a few of my generals names were changed, which I assume means they were replaced or killed. Most noticably was Hindenburg, who was leading my march through Belgium ...

RE: Refit question..

thanks for the post. I see now that Germany is pretty well stocked at the beginning of the war. But I can also see the weight that is slowly bearing down on me. I have decided I must push, push, push now. As you said as the war grinds on my chances of winning are less and less.

RE: Demo?

<t> i just bought it on Friday. I thought the same thing as you. I was wishing I could try it first. For me, who was never a big fan of hex-based wargames, i was shocked at how great this game is. A great purchase that is alot of fun to play. Fairly easy to pick up as well. All my other more 'fast ...
