I have playtested WitE2 since it started development and I keep good notes on all of the games I have played, either against Players (very few) or the AI. In all I have gamed the 41 Campaign to Jan 42 over 500 times over all of the versions. Having done so, the following are a few observations:

1 ...

Not enough depots at high enough priority. You should have the forward depots at priority 4 and about two or three depots back at priority 4 too. This depth allows the further back depots to store some supplies when it can that gives you a cushion for the bad weather or turns that the supplies are ...

Check to make sure that the Air AI is not enabled in your options screen. This has been known to flip on/off on its own in rare instances.

The original post has a high LW air loss because of Ground Support being on during the turn. This will result in bombers flying without escorts (so high A2A losses) and a LOT of air mileage used up (so high Operational Losses).

It probably appears wherever you have placed the Arrival Hex. If you hit 'r' and go into rail mode you will see a single hex that is solid yellow, this is the Reserve deployment hex. You can set a specific hex (I usually set it to Warsaw) by right clicking on the hex and setting the TB Appearance ...

After some checking on previous game data it does appear that the Trucks Lost in Freight DOES go back to the start of the game. But in the reporting I was looking at that number would increase by 50 and yet the Vehicles Repair Pool would increase by over 4K for the same turn.

That area of the Event Log is misleading you. I think it is the number of Trucks lost in Freight for that turn - not since the start of the game. It is also important to see how many vehicles you have in your Vehicle Repair Pool. Many times trucks go into the Repair ...

There is more to it than just moving one rail to adjust the size. The smaller engines used by the European rail system carried less water and fuel. So you have to site and build new water tenders and fueling stations along with the infrastructure to replenish those new sites.

My experience with the Soviets is limited BUT I do have concerns with setting Supply Priority 4 for everything does a few things that later on down the road could really cost the Soviets. The first is trucks and the wear and tear on the truck pool when the Lend Lease ...

<t> The Axis leaves priority 4 until the depots fill up or when you need the freight further forward. Then you lower the depot priority and let all of the built-up freight flow forward from closer. This will keep your supply line flowing into mid-Jan 42.<br/>

Then when the spring frost comes ...

Hit 'r' and make sure they are on a rail hex connected to a working rail hex. This is the most common problem that causes what you are seeing happen.

<t> Amphib assaults are resolved in the next Enemy Logistics Phase. You will see it move adjacent to the landing hex during your turn and the resolution will be in the following Logistics Phase. You can watch the landing resolve after you end your turn and before the game is handed over to your ...

<t> hoss - you picked a fight with the best Soviet Tank Division at the start of the war. It was fully equipped with T34s and KV1s. It was experienced and fully trained. In an actual battle account in early July that division was able to totally trash two panzer divisions who were unable to damage ...

If you bomb railyards then supple depots will lose material to the bombing attacks. If you bomb units this will not happen. So if you are trying to reduce the supply in the hex you bomb the railyards.

<t> It depends on the sequence that you isolated Odessa. Odessa is a major depot that supplies almost all of the Southern Front at the start of the war. This will usually drain the depot over the first few turns. If you isolate Odessa by sea first and then isolate it by land you will help drain the ...

In a campaign scenario the AI will ALWAYS build up to 200 divisions if it drops below that number so it always can build a line. I do not know if something like this is triggered in a scenario or not.

If you go to the very bottom of the Event Log it will tell you what version your opponent is using. You just check each turn to be sure.

Seems like the Soviets have finally worked out the Crimea has been empty for the last 6 weeks.<br/>

As above, can't gain any time bonus here so not worth the diversion of formations better along the Bug. Not least, for the whole of this southern sector, I'm relying ...

Game options are set in stone on the initial start of the game in HvH games. AI games allow changes at any time.

There is an outstanding question in another thread as to whether the Editor could be used to change those settings in an HvH game after the start.

<t> Stamb - if you are playing against the AI all Game Options can be changed at any time. Against another Human they are locked from the game's beginning.<br/>

I usually use all 100s for my side and then set the AI to 110 if it is defensive or 120 if the AI is the attacker. In a 41 Campaign ...
