Re: Which core game do you think the CS Legion should do next? - Pick two

I would rather vote twice for Cold War, but voted West Front as the second choice. There are an awful lot of titles covering WW2, while Cold War era gaming is becoming more popular. It would be nice to see Cold War with DLC covering the modern era (up to the current day), and covering alternate thea...

Re: Modern Ukraine Scenario

Would be interesting to see a scenario covering a NATO-Russian war, with modern boundaries and troops. I know there is always some distaste around that, but the study of conflict via simulation is of considerable value, both for understanding from an academic point of view but also raising awarenes...

game engine update

<t> Have you guys ever considered creating a new graphics layer for this? At some point, the ability to run older programs on Windows (without messing with a VM) is going to go away. There are a number of newer drawing libraries that are available for games. I also believe that the 2d/3d view is not...

Subs in Manila and a couple of other questions

<t> I've played a couple of campaign games as the Allies for about four or so months into the war, mostly just learning how the game works and so on. I've noticed that if I'm using AI sub ops, subs will gather in Manila, which leads to the unfortunate event of some of them getting sunk for no good r...

Windowed mode issue

<t> I'm pretty sure I'm right about this, but I wanted to confirm that if you drag a windowed screen, or minimize it, or move it to another monitor, the game no longer registers clicks on the game window? It's been a while since I've messed with the Win32 api, but I remember there have to be some so...

RE: Amusing happenings in an AI game

<t> Last night, I noticed that a marauding Japanese LCU stack decided to leave the base it had just occupied - even though there was a Chinese LCU right next to it, and go after another Chinese base. Needless to say, I just moved in the Chinese LCU and problem solved (for the moment). The AI seems t...

Thanks for all the advice. I'm close to two months in and the Chinese are a bit beat up, but are nowhere close to outright collapse.

RE: S.S. Ina Godda Davida...

<t> The definition of "good" probably requires some clarification. Pol Pot probably saw himself as a patriot and a savior of Cambodia, however horribly wrong things went under his leadership. In fact, the more inclined you are to think of yourself as being one of the "good guys," the less likely you...

Road building

<t> I'm about 45 or so turns into the campaign game and noticed there are some gaps in roads, such as the dirt road running from Port Moresby over to the eastern side of the Owen Stanleys, and also gaps in the road in Burma, where there is no road running from India to Rangoon, for example. Do these...

Peformance

<t> I bought this a while back, but found the performance even on a Dell 7559 was pretty anemic (quad core i7, gt960m, 16 gb of ram, so don't bother trolling me about gaming on a laptop). I had thought about giving it another shot, but was curious if there had been much in the way of updates to addr...
