Re: Quick Questions Thread

Thanks to both of you. Question is rather wether a depot on a "yellow" rail would receive MORE freight would it be on a green one.

Re: Quick Questions Thread

Is a "yellow" railyard (+ depot) fully functional ?
Yellow RYs are the ones that are in towns right along the frontline and adjacent to an enemy unit. In rail damage mode they are displyed as yellow dots.
Thanks.

Why not including CV/experience/morale/elite as a counterweight into the process of distribution ? LAH and the like certainly could pull strings back then.

RE: Axis fuel usage and production.

Is fuel the only commodity we will never be short of ? What about tanks, aircraft, armaments, supplies etc ?

RE: Events moved back

<t> In total contrast to all the attention to detail in the East, TBs at the present stage are simplistic beyond belief. In my game WE ground requirements came close to 190%, air/day+night around 150% and no D-Day until october (!) 1944 and in bad weather. My guess is that an invasion under such ...

Now in both the West and Italy (even without full TB control) you can set up a nice stream of delays and extra VP. In the game above from late 43 to the game end I got about 25 this way (so the equivalent of 4 early lost cities). I've ...

Great your chapter on TBs ! Since I adore logistics at least as much as tactics there is a lot of information in what you just said.

Thanks for clarifying Jango, but I always got the impression that the whole of WitE2 is alternate history . So why not within TBs ?

RE: North Africa and Italy events moved back

Is there any way to totally prevent/crush any of the forthcoming invasions or are they going to happen no matter how much you put into the TB ?
