I played HOI with sprites, and couldn't stand the counters. But I can't imagine playing WITE with sprites. Weird.

<t> The problem is that it's impossible to be balanced and historical. Germany has a small window before Soviet manpower and production become overwhelming. Historically Germany played 1941-2 fairly well, while the Soviets played poorly. The mistakes the Soviets made can be changed in an operational ...

And this is what 2ndACR says on the email: "<I><s>[i]</s>I must have missed when you killed a damned HQ. Not sure how you did it either. But I have a Corps HQ listed as destroyed<e>[/i]</e></I>" [:D]<br/>

But depresses me when playing as German.

Nice work, great AAR!

<r> In most cases it's fine at 90+%. There is a formula in the manual for partisan creation. Which (from memory) is (rounded down) (1-garrison%) * population. <br/>
<br/>
So at 95% you'd have to get 1 to create partisans so the city size would have to be 20. (1-0.95) * 20 = 1.<br/>

<r> Haha I made a spreadsheet too. I had everything locked and didn't think about trying to change the level like that until I had almost got everything done manually. Nice to know there is a better way for next game!<br/>

I had this and the HQ eventually disappeared

When do they normally activate? I am on turn 6 of the campaign and I remember having a lot more axis allied support in the Road to Kiev scenario.

<r> Is it SAP?<br/>

You guys should see the stupid software I have to use at work! WITE interface is a little weird, sure, but not that bad. You just need to play it incessantly, again and again, until our bodies become part of the machine <E ...

I thought pioneers were used when assaulting a city or heavy forts. Why put them on motorized divs?

I often wait to buy a game but bought this one early and haven't been dissappointed. There is enough content and learning curve to keep you busy for a long time before worrying about patches.

I have seen some interdiction attacks that I thought they were using mini-nukes on me. I had 8 IL4 inflict 1700 casualties on one of my div. I think it might be a little overpowered. LOL

Congrats! I have been following this AAR for a long time now and you do a very good job writing it. Thank you for the extra time you spend doing this in addition to all the time you spend actually playing the game.

Thanks for the response. I do actually like lots of detail, but would appreciate some degree of automation. I guess what I am trying to avoid is the planning and executing of one turn taking five hours to complete.

<t> If I understand correctly, support units attached to a HQ have a change of being committed if your unit is within 5 hexes of it's HQ. I noticed my Panzer group HQ's have a lot of support units, but since I generally move my HQ's last and the mobile units are fighting further away, should I move ...

Hmm, I was forgetting to do that very often. I'll try doing that every turn.

3) Your last question has no sure answer, and that's where strategy comes in to play.<br/>
Yes, each hex you move will reduce your unit's movement and to some extent a little combat power. Attacking will use a lot more of ...

I paid extra to get the box version that came with the printed manual that I had thought was the full manual. So I would still like a full printed manual.

<r> You can also fix it by changing the in game font sizes. See this thread for more details. I believe I fixed mine up by just changing the first 2 lines to 12 and 8<br/>
