Jasonbroomer, I agree with you and find that in 41, I get tired of setting divisions WITH ADEQUATE MP into reserve status, only to see them never activate WHEN ATTACKING. I think it should be looked at. I am not saying they should always or even usually attack, just that it might be too infrequent.

I like Stamb's posts. He is trying to get at some of the imo, core problems with the game. It is kinda not "fun". Having played numerous human vs human WITE 1, my opponent and I enjoyed them. We are having trouble enjoying this game. Axis seemed too constrained and underpowered. Although I haven't ...

Bottom line...GET THE GAME!

<t> I'm in a game to the bitter end with Gamesaurus Rex. Few games make it this long, turn 203, May 10, 45. Anyway, I keep looking to upgrade my fighters as, you know, that will make a huge difference as I defend Berlin. I understand they were operational in January 1945, but here in May, I have ...

Thanks for the reference. However, this is an absolutely silly rule. Seems they keep putting restrictions on what the German High Command can do, in this case, with totally useless units. I really think Dennis or Morvael should reconsider.

Can the Germans not disband FBD units??? It's 1943, I am no longer advancing, don't need all of them and yet I can't disband them. I even took all the construction units out of one to see if that would allow it, but no dice. Is there a time when I can?

A real labor of love here Chris. Much appreciated!

<t> Well, I am against needless micro-management in a game that simulates a turn of 7 days. I would much prefer options to do more variable things, like have the Germans double up the RR repair units (at the cost of having other fronts suffer from no rail repair), so that the game introduces more ...

<t> I don't know how you have all those AP to spend Simon. I need them all the time for assignment of support units, leader changes, and most importantly, HQ buildups. Imo, the game nicely models the cost of unit transfers. Do you not try and fix the overloaded AGS problem? It's a huge cost in AP to ...

Please contact me via forum messaging. I am ready for a game under normal rules using 1.11.01 or .02 if it is out.

<t> Ok, in a game where everything else for the Germans has to enter or be withdrawn on a certain date, why the heck does the Gross Deutschland regiment not upgrade to division status on April 1, 1942 as it actually did.<br/>
<br/>
My regiment is still sitting in Germany awaiting its TOE to ...

Well, we wouldn't want the Germans to repair ONE rail hex further east than they historically did, or on a date before they historically did, or...heck, on a rail LINE that they didn't repair historically.

in a far-away future version we may try to implement leader withdrawals to ensure those who moved to other theaters will actually move.

<t> Nix77, you are probably right, and I didn't realize it, but I went back to the updated manual and geez, its as clear as "mud" as to what the costs are. On the turn I wanted to attack, it was ice level 6. But nowhere in the rules does it seem to say what the costs are for attacking over a river ...

Wouldn't be the first time some soldiers surrendered in a battle that their side won.

<t> Blizzard, 1942<br/>

My panzers are attempting to make a HASTY attack across a major river. As I understand it, the cost should be:<br/>
<br/>
HA-3<br/>
Attack across Major River-12<br/>
Blizzard-2<br/>
Total-17<br/>
<br/>
Well, a panzer with 21 MP left CANNOT make the attack, a ...

Any chance of a semi-free setup option? The stereotyped German first move is a little dull by the tenth or fifteenth time you do it.<br/>

<r> I love this too. What really is the combat value of these three surrounded Russian infantry divisions? 3 or 53? Good grief!!!!!!<br/>

Btw, this is not the battle shown in the previous post.<br/>
