RE: War in the East - Grigsby

One of the best games out there. Complicated yes, but not in the sense you wont learn enough to enjoy it. I havent played War in the West, but if its anything like the East version its a must have too. I wish it had a World at War version.

Thoughts for World at War

<t> I love the game. Im sure the World game is almost done anyway, but Ive always searched for that perfect game, replayability, historical real vs. ridiculous unreal, scale etc. I find this game is one of the best ive played. Grigsby's War in The East is prob the best, in terms of everything Ive ...

RE: Allied AI after the conquest of Great Britain is silly

Even with US units landing in north UK, I still managed with overwhelming Air and Ground units to win. The Royal Navy never showed up. Simply retreated to Iceland and US and piecemeal ed itself to death against my combined Axis fleet.

RE: Oddities

Agreed, I have come to anticipate that EVERY city will have a unit in it on the Russian front. SO I have to tread carefully otherwise every one of my many armored units gets stopped cold. I dont even intend to attack the city, just encircle it.

I conquered most of Europe. Pushing the Soviets back and holding the line. All of UK is mine. The US keeps sending suicide groups to southwest UK to land, and my screen of Axis naval fleets, (Spain, Italy, Germany and Sweden) are taking them out every time. There are NEVER ...

RE: Attack USSR ASAP? Or as late as possible?

<r> Even with normal settings I had a hard time with the normal version of events, i.e Poland, then attack france, then turn against Soviets while holding UK in check and overrunning Africa. Problem was always Soviet tech upgrades. I could never get deep enough into Russia before the odds turned ...

A nice future option would be the ability to pay double (or adjustable additional % based on Research categories or simply a manual entry on option screen) for elite replacements when a unit is under 10 strength so the earned ...

RE: Mod thoughts...

<r> I agree with several points here. <br/>

Mech units? I have played other games where each country had mech units with various attributes, for example, US Mech had high movement values. Germany mech had higher attack and def values. Etc. In this game mech doesnt seem to offer any upgrades ...

Did you remove the PanzerGrenadier units? (Mech)? Any update? Excited to download it!

Editor Help

Is there a quick and easy place to learn to edit script and jpeg? For instance, I just want to add my own units and counters. I can do the basic editing on the editor but want to add units and counters.

RE: Aviation Units and Hex Occupation

<t> I agree totally. And it's most likely an engine limitation. And that's a shame as this game had some real potential to be great. It just seems as far as combat to be on par with Panzer General when you can stack those kinds of units. I haven't purchased an engineer unit yet, but does that ...

RE: Aviation Units and Hex Occupation

<t> I'm sorry, but I still don't understand why in a strategic game where the hexes represent so much territory, why you would have Air units occupy the entire hex. There have been several occasions now where I have broken through the enemies lines, had an armored or mech unit encounter an aviation ...

Aviation Units and Hex Occupation

<t> So far the game is good. One major issue I have is aviation units are being treated as combat units. Aviation units should NOT occupy a hex. Ground units should be able to occupy the same hex. This reperesnts the defense of airfields and air units do not take up that much space. Plus, the air ...
