RE: Desert War: Combat Tips

<t> What's confusing some of us (myself included), is when adding no-shock units to shock units dilutes shock value, and when it doesn't.<br/> <br/> The key point seems to be that some units have no shock value, and some units have zero shock value. But (at the top of page 78), "NOTE: A unit with a ...

RE: Fullscreen is a window. Or maybe vice versa?

<t> Yep. Doesn't hamper play any; the bottom of the (apparently borderless) window is the bottom of the screen. There's just no distinction when checkmarking that option.<br/> <br/> Absolutely low on the list of things to fix, but I thought I should ask if I'm missing something to do it right, so......

RE: Reluctant Offensive - Tyronec vs Axis AI

<t> Playing the same mission myself, on a rather different strategy, I saw the AI bump some isolated units into the Sollum Barracks to get murdered by my stack there. That happened on Turn 1; it didn't happen again (through a few game days of test playing). The AI was clearly sending units ahead of ...
