RE: Too little experience

<t> That you need a long time to get that much experience is a good thing as overstrength 5 star units are able to one-shot almost all opposition.<br/>
So consider it to be intentional that it takes a long time.<br/>

The question is why do you want to have many core units to have the Knight ...

RE: Matters of Decisiveness

Fallschirmjäger also have the "Pioniere" bonus?

I thought only Pioneers and Bridge Engineers.
I guess Rangers have it as well but it is about time that their bonuses get documented ingame.

Yes the bonuses need to be displayed somehow. Maybe modified numbers in red.

RE: Biggest blunders.

Strategic blunder: Not upgrading my Panzer IV to Tiger II but Panther G in America. Several more would have survived as Tigers (better protected vs airpower, better vs M26 an hordes of Shermans etc).

RE: An airpower opinion.

Indeed. That the level bombers do a lot better than the tactical bombers is quite consensus by now.

The question is rather how to tweak it.

OK, it turned out that the first turns are brutal but then you make them pay. Nevertheless I lost some units that were with me since Poland.

RE: What to do with them?

<t> Recon units are indeed tricky. Their movement often enables them to penetrate defensive lines and knock out artillery but they usually don't survive such incursions.<br/>

I still have two in my core and their spotting when not playing save/reload should not be underestimated but they are ...

US East Coast, 1939 Campaign

<t> So I finally made it there. I thought Kursk was hard (I couldn't afford to turn most of my tanks into Tigers and Panthers) but the US East Coast is IMO even harder. It's scary.<br/>

Can you give me some advice how to face the challenges of this scenario?<br/>
