Thank you all for your responses.

I have been playing a very cagey game thus far, as the IJN carrier force seems to wander around in a doom stack!

Its Dec 42 now and I am about to launch the Marines at Guadalcanal - going to land at Tassafaronga as there does not appear to be much of an enemy ...

Indeed - and thanks for the response!

It had been a while since I played WITPAE and have started a new play through, I chose the Iron Man scenario to make it more challenging. Now I have started playing I have found that the AI has a lot more ships, planes, troops etc - so any tips on how to take on an enhanced Japanese Empire?

Thank you for responding!

I am trying to update World at War however when I select update from the start it goes through the process until I get the following message:
Error:
Unable to download file.
An error ocurred while trying to open an FTP file.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks for responding.

Yes, it has only been two days since the unit was wiped out.

Funnily enough I had a constituent unit of the Port Moresby brigade at Townsville when all the other bits ...

Apologies for asking the following but I could not find any answer to my query.

I am playing the main campaign (scen1) as Allies, situation is:

May 42, Japanese commence operations to take Port Moresby, due to lack of shipping I divide the 6th Australian Division and send one brigade over. All ...

Hi Platoonist

Thank a lot for swift response. Having a go with my new found knowledge right now.

<t> I am getting near to my wits end...playing the Falklands scenario, have inserted the SAS and would really like to total the air base that they are overlooking using the 10 Harriers with CPU-123 Paveways. Normally with simulations a bit of trial and error (several years of WITP AE) or some ...

I have similar issues with Napoleon and I really am looking forward to the WWI version - so I hope there is solution
