RE: Russia! Why not? (Morvael welcome)

This game is about encirceling and destroy, not about push back and forth.

RE: Question/Observation

<t> Not mine. I still play it but what I would really like to play would be a modern WITE with the gameplay of the old SSI games Operation Crusader and Stalingrad. The planing and executing phases are so much more closer to reality compared to switching sides play style, that I never understood why ...

RE: Advice welcome. Noob vs. AI.

<t> You have a lot of positions in the south, where you hold on to FZ and where even the AI is going to cut your units of. You have to abandon a fortified line that has been broken already. In the flat land of the south you have to trade space for time. A HI would make short wood out of your HGS ...

RE: Ketza vrs Admiral Nelson

<t> 2 tank, 1 Mot and 2 more units at the northern end of the front. Only the 2PDs and the mot are saveable via RR at turn 2. At turn 3 that units too are immobile again. That is how it is now, at least if you park PC XIV 1 hex away from the border and not violate the 89 activation line in the north ...

I see you did not move PC XIV by rail west Kishinev in T2. So Front South has escaped. You could have sacked it compleetly. Shame on you.

RE: Ketza vrs Admiral Nelson

<t> Look how poorly your JG 27 performs. You moved it over the border after turn 1. Originally they are positioned at 39/55. What you do oversee is that they are not in CR. 5 other Fliegerhorste are not in CR too. To name them it is LW 10/ 11/ 12/ 14/ 16/ 22. If you move them in range of their ...

The north: Up to turn 2 take Velik Luki. Why not? For me more a good start against Moskwa than to a big sweep north. From turn 3 on what you do is hasardous. Create a pochet and just to let it stay alive sacrifice 2 PAs and 1.5 HGs is sheer ...

<t> I run the newest 1.07 something upgrade and still this german pak is that expensive to build. At start of 41GC there are 15 units equipt with that Pak. It does not appear in the production line by itself. It seems although not to be built somwhere. Some other weapons have the same high cost, so ...

<t> If you use nato symbols on counters please do it in a more professional way. You set up the game with broken down divisions of mostly regimental size.<br/>
The right marking for the size of those units are three III on the top of the case and not two XX. That this units are part ot a bigger ...

RE: Sealion in Campaign Mode

I too have reached Sealion, newest version downloaded and I have no unit there. 3 airwings, 1 headquarter and thats it. First i thought I have to buy my units with the cards, but that cards are not playable - placable on any hex, at least not at the first turn. So no sealion for me it seems.

<t> In your foreword you mentioned the game Stalingrad. I loved to play it too, the predecessor Operation Crusader even more so. The planing phase was only exiting for grognards, but the execution phase was somehow more real than this concept here. I would say that this planing - executing concept ...
