1.09 political decision without effect

<r> Choosing option A has no result (no +9 Mer, no -4 Gov). B works fine.<br/>

RE: Absurd rolls continue

<t> Well, some time has passed, so I have no memories regarding my having the "talented envoys", or not any more. My point stays: If a maximum possible roll, as displayed/shown to me on the decision making screen, may be different (here: higher, but I have a strong feeling I have seen it work ...

Absurd rolls continue

<r> There seems to be an issue with the rolls. I confess, I do a lot of save spamming while I am trying to get hold of the game, and there sometimes seems to be no way to get any close to the "promised land" of whatever dice + whatever stat. But here, I present you with an opposite. There was no ...

All clear, Telemecus!

And thanks again. Switching the RR on shows them supply entry/connection points on the map edges for your faction. Good show!

It was patched to have many more than two - the red dots below are some of them. Capturing them all is probably not a viable priority strategy now.<br/>

The two hexes ze Gerrmans trace supply from

<t> What are they?<br/>
<br/>
I remember reading this before, but cannot find it anywhere any more.<br/>
I seem to remember that there were two hexes on the Western edge of the map that had to be taken by the Soviets to have all (remaining) Axis units out of supply...<br/>

So when do I get to combine them motorised infantry brigades?

<t> Just as above.<br/>
As the Soviets, some time by spring 42 you can build them motorised infantry brigades. In July '42, stacking 'em up in one place and hitting the "combine" button still does not produce a motorised division, or corps. When is it going to happen?<br/>
<br/>

<t> Whatever you do, remember three things:<br/>

1. Rivers will freeze stiff and provide no barrier till after the spring thaw, so don't plan your defence lines along rivers.<br/>

2. Axis units will fare better during the blizzard when in towns/cities/urban. Consider your armour for ...

<t> I cannot help you with the exact mechanics, so sorry for that.<br/>
But I have a "feeling" that if a unit that has to retreat has nowhere to go next door, so to say, it routs. Covering the whole defence zone with three units stacks just doesn't allow for any orderly withdrawal. Hence - routs ...
