That's useful to know--many thanks!

Many thanks for this good advice! By building 1 asset at a time, I was able to make a much better start to the game.

Many thanks--that's useful info. I checked out the reports and found useful data. Thanks again--appreciated.

Many thanks--that's interesting and useful info. Appreciated.

Many thanks--that's useful info.

Thanks for this---yep, that worked! Built the mine first and then the "industry I" building. Thanks again--very helpful.

<r> I just started a game on "easy" and with no epochs, cults, corporations, syndicates. Here's how it went:<br/>
<br/>
1. Need industrial points to build a metal mine, ice mine, agri-dome.<br/>
2. But can't build any "industry" (to get "industry points") because I have no metal.<br/>
3. Can't ...

Should each zone have its own SHQ? And if so, is there a particular method for assigning new SHQs to zones? And if you get a minor faction to join your empire, should you give them their own SHQ? Thanks in advance for replies.

Sorry to ask, Rasputitsa--but could you send me a link too? Just started looking at the game again & would like to check out the map+counters mod. Many thanks in advance!

With you on lack of campaign story/drama & need for more varied objectives. John Tiller's Squad Battles features an editor with many types of possible objective. Also--might be interesting to include (if possible) asymmetrical warfare theatres (e.g. Soviet invasion of Afghanistan).

Ha!

Thanks for this. So far I have not seen artillery available on refit screen. Maybe I set up the campaign parameters/options wrong? Thanks again for reply.

Thanks for this. Here is my DxDiag.txt if it helps...?

Many thanks for this. OK--now I understand. In future I will check armaments, not just name in list.

Ah--OK. Sounds like that's the problem. Thanks for letting me know.

<r> I just generated a "Meeting--Engagement" scenario & added artillery guns afterwards in the XML file for both sides (player & AI). I then created a fire mission for illumination of given area. The fire mission began, and several rounds were fired, but then the game immediately crashed. I checked ...

<t> Hi & thanks for reply.<br/>
<br/>
The helicopter I used appears in the list of Yugoslav units as "HN-42M GAMA" and is described as a "gunship", so I had assumed it could at least fire an MG at ground troops ...<br/>
<br/>
I just googled this aircraft & found its role described as "anti ...

<t> … And so I created a new, daytime scenario, in order to test performance of helicopters. Again, Yugoslavia v. Italy.<br/>
<br/>
This time, I gave myself Mech HQ & Mech Infantry platoon and helicopter gunships, and I gave the AI Mech HQ and 2 Mech Infantry platoons but no helicopters or AA ...

<t> Generated a night-time scenario: Yugoslavia v. Italy & gave both sides helicopter gunships & AA units. I played as Yugoslavia. When the scenario starts, the game prompts the player to add positions & TRPs for the helicopters, and so I did this.<br/>
<br/>
As the scenario continued, the AI ...

<r> Thanks for taking time to test this--I appreciate it. <br/>
<br/>
I think I must have missed some important factor--and so I will read the manual (sorry--haven't done that yet!).<br/>
<br/>
Meanwhile, my experience so far has been:<br/>

I began several campaigns as Finland: sometimes ...
