Thanks for the great writeup on Italian surrender Kent, and thanks again for your great AAR!

I don't have WITW yet, but I was wondering how Allied control of Corsica and Sardinia works in the game. Do they "go Allied" when Italy surrenders or do the Allies have to invade and conquer them?

Kent, I'm so glad to see you're back at it with an AAR. I really enjoyed your last one.

One question I've had about WITW. Is the only purpose of the Allied Naval Superiority mission to prevent Axis sea transport?

Hello and thank you for your comment Mr. Red Bunny. The short answer to your comment is (no). This challenge was played with East Front Control (EFC) set for off. meaning, the Soviet Union advance is connected to historical advancement. Or so it should have been.

Even when the EFC is set on for ...

In WitW isn't the Soviet advance influenced by how well the German player garrisons the Eastern Front Theater Box? If the German player loads it up the Soviet advance will be behind historical.

Could this have happened in your game?

Hey Kent, I've noticed the Germans have been able to run a lot of air supply. Is this something you're able to interdict? Is it worth doing so?

Thanks!

Thank you Kent for the continuing great AAR, and congrats to both players!

The Germans seem pretty heavily commited in Italy -- do you think that will be an issue for him with an invasion of France coming presumably in a couple months? Or perhaps you're weakened with your transport loses so that ...

These look great Crossroads. I wish the forums provided a way to show approval or disaaproval without having to clutter a thread with posts like this one. Something like an upvote/downvote system.

It had been a while since playing WitW and I have not really run into a problem of Task Forces magically moving from Mediterranean to UK. Of course this happens every game but I have not noticed it too much; until this challenge, due to impact. I do not even have an answer for this. "Dumb", is all ...

I was going to clarify some aspects of a ferry crossing in WitW but after a test I see it would be meaningless. Simply put, nothing matters!

To begin with, there is a difference between port and ferry. Hexes have one, the other, or both. Bombing a port does not affect a ferry and bombing a ferry ...

I'm a little surprised & disappointed there aren't more player created scenarios (and I do plan on playing yours Matteo!).

Always uninstall app and never delete them first. When an app installs it creates entries in the registry that can not just be deleted. Well you could, but if you don't know what your doing your system may never boot up.


A reminder to everyone who's not yet installed either of the 2.00/3.00 ...

Thank you for your AAR. These have to be the most beautiful maps I've seen in wargaming. Too bad I'm not smart enough to play this game.

This is really cool, nice bug-hunt simovitch!

Thanks simovitch and thanks Matrix.

Hans has won and won decisively and that would satisfy most players who would either bump up the difficulty settings and/or seek out a human opponent for a challenge, but I've come to the conclusion that Hans just wants to be able to further obliterate the Soviet AI. And he's upset the developers ...

I'm having problems seeing the point of this thread Hans,

Big whoop, you found some issues with the game under an edge case condition (utterly defeating the Soviets). Very few players have the skill level or the inclination to play out a game against an opponent as decisively beaten as you have ...

What I quoted from you, that it's a problem that the game's historical rail repair rate might not match the game's.

chuckfourth wrote: Sat Dec 28, 2024 11:11 pm While I have your attention can the German player reach the historical rail repair locations in the game like in reality? you ignore the question, no doubt because he can't.

Why is this such a problem for you?

There was absolutely nothing uncivil about my comments.

Calling a spade a spade in not an uncivil act.

I swear this species is growing more and more thin skinned by the day.

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

If one can't stand up in the face of heated criticism and defend ...

Thanks for running this experiement and thanks for sharing the results.

I find this both depressing news and good news.

Depressing news because I played this scenario twice and played to the best of my ability using all the advice I gathered on the forums. I was one VP away from victory on my ...

One really wonders why you're still playing the game.
