I use the condense manual: <URL url="http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3862472"><LINK_TEXT text="tm.asp?m=3862472">http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3862472</LINK_TEXT></URL><br/>

it's very easy to use and has almost ...

<t> Thanks for the advice! I did play the game around 3 years ago for a bit, but have forgotten most of it.<br/>
<br/>
Any ideas about what scenario would be a useful and interesting one to get me back into the game?<br/>
<br/>
I have a recollection that the things that confused me before was ...

<t> Thanks for the info. I have found NightPhoenix so will have a look (haven't been able to find MaruaderPL on youtube).<br/>
<br/>
Not sure the link you gave was the right one - couldn't see info on the new patch in it.<br/>
<br/>
Out of interest, which patch notes do I need to look at if I ...

<t> Thanks for the reply. A real shame there is no up-to-date manual. It is slightly off putting to be honest, as even knowing what questions to ask is difficult.<br/>
<br/>
Any ETA on when the new game might be making an appearance?<br/>
<br/>
EDIT: any good youtube videos I should check out to ...

<t> Played this game a while ago for a little bit, but most of what I knew I have forgotten! I have been reading 'Russia at War, 1941-1945: A History' by Alexander Werth, as it was dirt cheap on the kindle, and it has fired me up to give the game another go. However, I have a couple of questions:<br ...

<t> Without knowing any of the history of Pelton and previous versions of these games etc, it does seem to an outsider like myself that amongst all his provocative dialogue he might make a valid point. If there are a number of players expert in finding exploits in these games, wouldn't it be useful ...

<r> I found this site that has an animation covering the war in the east. It is semi-interactive and has some recordings of Soviet soldiers recalling their experiences. You have all probably clocked it before, but thought I would post it up in case some have not seen it. It doesn't go into any real ...

Its distance from your railheads that matters + trucks.<br/>
<br/>
WitW + WitE are very simpliar as far as this goes. <br/>
<br/>
There is a ton of play in both systems an amazing amount.<br/>
<br/>
Once you figure out the logistics part ...

Out of interest, my steam version is not on the new beta patch 1.08.08. Should I be using that patch, and is it possible to use it if your game is through steam?

EDIT: found a way to access the beta on steam, so downloading it. Hope that was the right thing.

You may "assign", move from OKH, to any German HQ with one click. With your mouse, go to the HQ you want to get the "goodies", click the assign function, all available su's then appear, all in the command chain.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

<t> Thanks for all the replies. [:)]<br/>

The movement of SUs takes some getting used to. I have now got all my SUs in my High Command ready to distribute to my lower HQ's. However, I am now finding that the list of HQ's they can move too is limited to a smattering of corps, armies and army ...

<r> Seems my questions were so dumb that no one wanted to answer them [&:]<br/>
<br/>
I think I have the answers to them anyway, so will post up what I think. All I then need is someone to tell me if I am right or wrong on them. <br/>

<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>1. What support units count as ...

<t> I noticed on another thread that someone said army HQs only repair rail lines laterally (was one of the posts on the 'A collection of the Best Great War in the East Posts V3' thread). I wasn't really sure what this meant, so wonder if someone can enlighten me?<br/>
<br/>
Another few questions ...

<t> Thanks for the replies.[:)] <br/>

AltCv seems like it might be useful to start with, just for learning more of how the behind the scenes system works. My worry with using that version, though, is that after playing for a while I may well want to not have all the extra info, less I become ...

<t> I was wondering what would be the best settings for me to start my first grand campaign aginst the AI with? I have played a few scenarios, and have got a grip on most of the main concepts, though air warfare is still a bit of a work in progress, I haven't used HQ build-ups, and a few other ...

<t> Thanks again Loki, all this has helped me a lot. I noticed you said in your first post that HQ's lower than Front/Army Group or Stavka/OKH repair rail lines closer to their HQ. Could this be a way of fine tuning the auto rail repair done by the computer? Put a lower HQ with some construction SUs ...

<t> Thanks for those answers, they are a great help. I hadn't thought of keeping Airbases actually on rail lines to minimize trucks. Would the same apply to all HQs, not just airbases? I am presuming it would. I realize the frontline HQ's are probably going to be in advance of the railheads while ...

<t> Getting into the game and really enjoying it. The interface is great and I have enjoyed the learning curve so far. Looking forward to starting a campaign some time soon, but earning my stars at the moment with the Road to scenarios.<br/>
<br/>
I have a few questions about HQ's. I am probably ...

Thanks [:)]

<t> Don't want to butt in here, but I am a new player and was thinking of starting my first full campaign against the AI. Should I hold off until the problems talked about in this thread have been patched? Just that it is such an huge investment of time and I don't want it to be pointless because of ...
