FYI - the ability to 'mule' HQBUs was removed several patches ago. Upgrade to the latest patch and voila problem solved!

Good luck ever getting your reinforcements anywhere with this mass of bumblers in 1941. I note that by mid July an enormous mass of reserve units had shown up in front of AGC and was giving it a very hard time. This would be more or less ...

<t> The random lurches thing would simply be annoying. I think it was Forge of Freedom or Crown of Glory, or both, that implemented that 'feature' and I disliked it immensely.<br/>
<br/>
The Russian army in '41 and '42 suffered from many handicaps not reflected in WitE. As mentioned above there is ...

<t> This game is over. I don't see what there is to see in having it played out. In fact I find it hugely ironic the very same people expressing that desire also advocated surrender in the Speedy/Sapper match as it was 'over' in their view on Turn 8!!!<br/>

Maybe also we can finally put to ...

I've been meaning to start a thread like this, but titled "I won't buy WITE 2.0 unless...", but this thread will probably do. But at least in my opinion, we are clearly not talking about patch, but a almost a complete do-over.<br/>

Leo - have to be realistic. What's the point in spending another 400-800 hours of my life on something that is not enjoyable, has 0 chance of a positive outcome coupled with the obvious downward spiral I'd be on - can't run as lose industry ...

Generally I crank Interception to 150%. However, I think there is a bug with Night Interceptions or something. I have set fighters to intercept at night but they have never shot down a plane after doing so.

<t> Well in my mind, every one of these recent encirlements have been telegraphed for the last two turns. Perhaps Sapper has been fortunate in his rolls overall, but you have been handing him divisions on a plate by allowing him encirclements N-S like this. You need to stop thinking about ...

<t> Thanks for the AAR, interesting read. I was struck by some things and have a few comments based on my experience against some tough Soviet opponents. Take it for what it is worth.<br/>

1. The South is a death trap the first 4-5 turns. (Think Romanian rail) Here is where you should run ...

Right, like the 3 snow in the south zone and 2 in the North zone instead of mud, Notenome had in in oct/early nov 1941. Sure it had no impact on Moscow and Rostov falling.<br/>

Guess ...

<t> It doesn't seem enough credit is given to the masterful job (thus far) Michael T is doing against Pelton, one of the best German players period. Instead some are trying to downplay it? I can't recall such an AAR from two highly skilled players. Granted, I personally thinking pocketing is so much ...

<t> As a predominantly German player, I would like to improve this aspect of my game. In my limited experience, the Soviet Reserve activations seem disproportionately higher than the German. I think having high Initiative helps but it isn't the only, or even most important, factor obviously. It ...

You can't ignore Glantz. Right or wrong he looms large on the scene; it's impossible to stay current on Soviet WW2 scholarship without taking into account his work. He's this generation's John Erickson (who I am still very fond of, even if ...

<t> Yes, the Decisive Campaigns games have a definite historical feel and flavour that is clearly lacking (non-existant even) in WitE. Warsaw to Paris is an underappreciated gem of a game and I am really looking forward to the Eastern Front treatment. Kudos to Victor and I hope his new release ...

<t> Nice to see someone seriously defend Leningrad, the German may get caught napping here before committing the necessary resources. I would definitely look to fortify the hex east of Pavlovo though. I am also surprised you have given up the Dnepr line so early, generally that can be a serious ...

Taken.

<t> Hi, <br/>
<br/>
I'm looking for a Soviet opponent for an Alt VP Grand Campaign. I'm a fairly competent player with a handful of MP games under my belt now. I would be happy to play any level of opponent, though someone with at least one MP game would be preferable. Either way, and more ...

But won't relocation have other bad effects, on attached support units for example?

Actually iirc all of the SUs get a free ride out - magic!

<t> Michael T is a bloody machine, very impressive. He is clearly in a league of his own, making all average German players very humble indeed. I think the theory fostered by some that he stacks the deck is a hollow cry and doesn't negate how skilled a player he really is. Taking shots at Michael T ...
