RE: New patch in the works

<t> I have the boxed versions of this game from 20 year ago.<br/>
<br/>
The reviews of this combined version were pretty much all critical of the outdated interface.<br/>
<br/>
I don't mind buying this if the interface has been overhauled or is in the works to improve it.<br/>
<br/>
Can anyone ...

Purple shading in fighter / bomber hex

Can anybody tell me exactly what this means when you have it. I have not been able to decipher whether it is fuel or supply shortage or what.

Thanks

RE: CV carrier battles

<t> None of it is automatic - You control what the planes do, what their armament is, how much damage before returning for repair, what fuel level you return etc. The whole game is base on providing a realistic experience with land, air , and naval units.<br/>

It is a far more advanced ...

RE: How good is the A.I and is the A.I better than in Panzer Corps ?

<r> Just my opinion but I think you are looking at the wrong thing. Ie. because all A.I. is basically stupid<br/>
<br/>
But the scenarios designs are better in this<br/>
The air combat and the naval combat even more so - much better than PC<br/>
The supply system is far superior<br/>

RE: Enough with the mailing lists already!

We use mailchimp which is supposed to manage this all for us.

I've always suspected that is who runs customer service in most companys.

What did he get laid off from the Tarzan movies or something?[&:]

Aah that makes sense - I'm in the habit of going right over the carrier and forgot you could be beside it as well.
