<t> I'm having real trouble juggling all of the demands on my IP in the very early game. I feel like metal mine, water mine, and industry all need to get up and running ASAP, with farms and bureaucratic offices not far behind, and of course I also want to crank some buggies out. I'd be curious to ...

Wait, so how exactly does the Reserve command work? I am relatively new (have had the game for a little over a year) and have never actually used Reserve.

I'm trying to get the updated scenarios that Andy Mac posted on the first page.

<t> Is the download link for Scenario 2 correct? The file I get from the link in post that says "Scen 2" seems to be for Scenario 11.<br/>

e: nevermind, must have been using the wrong executable, I got it to work (if the last modified date on the files in the scenario folder is ~2012 then it ...

<t> Related question about patrol zones. Say I set hexes A, B, and C as the boundaries of the patrol zone. What exactly does the sub's patrol pattern look like (or really any patrolling ship)? Is it:<br/>
<br/>
1. A --> B --> C --> A --> B --> C --> A, etc.<br/>
<br/>
2. A --> B --> C --> B ...

If I install the latest 11.26b patch, does it also include the latest versions of scenario and AI files?

<t> I've been playing my first campaign as the Allies on and off for the last year or so and while it has been fun, I don't feel like the AI has put up a great fight, especially after 1942. I'm looking to start another Allied campaign vs. AI with a scenario or settings that would be more challenging ...

Thanks.

<t> Gravedigging my thread to ask a quick question about the end game: Is it possible to keep playing after autovictory or does the game end no matter what? It’s late August 1943 in my game and the score is already about 2:1 in my favor. Unless the AI pulls off a major reversal, it therefore seems ...

Could you explain a little bit how to set something like this up please? This is the first I have heard of replenishment carriers. I have noticed that some squadrons say replenishment squadron but am not sure what that really means.

Is there any way to search for a given commander? It’s Dec 42 in my game and I realized I have no idea where Halsey is.

<t> Against the advice of the thread, I went for it at Guadalcanal and Tulagi and managed to pull it off, securing both islands after about a month of fighting. Dropping 1800AV at Lunga across 2-3 waves did the trick. There was a super intense series of carrier battles in the Solomons that saw 5 ...

So based on both of your responses, fair to say that OOB doesn't matter that much as long as there is an HQ present within the relative radius?<br/>

<br/>
I've got 100k+ supply stockpiled in Luganville, Noumea has like 350-400k and Sydney has over a million. Well north of half a million units ...

<t> Thanks once again for all of the responses, you guys are seriously great. I've got a few more questions in connection with my planned invasion of Guadalcanal and Tulagi, specifically regarding HQs. I've read some other threads about HQs but still find it a little confusing.<br/>

1. - Get Australia Command HQ or SWPac if it has arrived to Townsville.<br/>
- Get some ARs to Townsville. If no ship is assigned to them they donate their repair points to the port.<br/>

my magic number for drop tanks seems to be 10,000 supply.<br/>

What determines whether I can mount drop tanks on a plane, assuming the plane can accept drop tanks? I tried to fly some P39s from Sydney to Darwin via Horn Island, but they can't mount drop tanks at Horn Island. Horn Island has a size 1 (I think) airbase and happens to be ...

<t> Couple more questions:<br/>
<br/>
1. Any tips on getting useful intelligence out of the SigInt reports? It's early May 42 in my game, and I just suffered my first major naval defeat when KB raided the east coast of Australia and sank Lexington and its escorts (a couple CAs, a CL, various DDs ...
