And Michael Schumacher is at the helm! Laughable Maneovers.JPG In a one minute turn the German CL down to 10 knots is able to perform an 'S' manoeuvre turning hard to starboard and then hard to port with no apparent bleeding of speed or other adverse effects? In the next 1 minute turn it manages to ...

Yip Same problem here, I've had a unit sitting in Berlin for the month of September 1941 and it's supply hasn't increased above 38%! In fact the entire army is between 35 and 44%. Supply is now completely messed.

<t> You probably know this already Larry, but as the Jap player you need to try and get 2:1 odds in fighters when engaging the Allies, check the combat reports to see how many fighters he's launching against your raids and then try to double the number when assigning escorts. Do you have a house rul...

RE: Another AI "Cheat"?

Icedawg, the AI does carry out some 'interesting' moves. I tried sending all my first turn invasion forces to Batangas, just east of Manila, and discovered that the AI can move infantry units at 60 miles per day! Fancy that!
