Problem is it was a gift. I am registered, I have the CD Rom disk. But I didnt buy it.

The friend that did is unfortunately no longer with us.

Any chance of posting a link to the download here? I have tried running the auto patch countless times over months and have yet to get it.

I have given up on playing this game 2 player until some limit on German forces in Africa is put it (which Im sure will never happen) but would be nice to ...

Combat 11 Dec
The 4 US DDs bump into CVL Ryujo 1 last time as they both go their separate ways. No effect.
Several skirmishes between CL/DD groups and PTs off the north side of Luzon. 5 PTs sunk total over 2 days. 1 group was engaged several times and driven almost all the way to Hong Kong ...

Dec 9 combat
No real big surprises, but some small ones.
2 sub attacks near Pearl on an AG, no effect.
AMs leaving Manila clearing mines at Bataan. I form 5 individual AM forces and make sure they are the first to leave. All 5 were later killed by a CL/DD force north of Palawan.
PTs were engaged ...

This is probably going to be my last time playing this game, so I thought I would write an AAR on it. Included in this will be a lot of my age old tricks (since there will be no more updates to the game and Im not playing again, Im not going to keep them a secret anymore). I am playing both sides ...

"Retreated" and "dived" are the same to a sub. It was attacked and retreated (or dived if you prefer). No standard 1939 scenario.

You dont need to put passwords on them. The other side cant access your stuff. If you just start a game with no password on it, it is open to anyone...

Sub retreat bug.

I was retreated to hex 203,0. Next turn I couldnt change my mode to hunt from silent. I have other subs in 197,0 and 199,0 (both in hunt mode) and I can change them to silent on the next turn just the retreated unit is affected.

I didnt imply that he was stupid. If I thought he was, frankly I would probably say it.

I just came to the realization that it didnt matter how I explained it, he was still going to find a way to argue about it, and frankly I dont need that. Doesnt mean he is stupid. I offered a bug report to ...

Try going to TF 9 and hit the "," key and see what happens.

I don't recall anyone mentioning the "out" that prevents the 3 day penalty when you try the pierside or drydock options to see how that affects repair time. You simply have to remember to hit the "Cancel Changes" option before doing anything else . If you move on to another ship or leave that ...

I was a play tester on the original AE. Yes, I "clashed" with devs. You wouldn't believe what this "game" would look like if I hadn't.

You're welcome.

My 1 and only goal for these "clashes" is to make a playable, bug free GAME that you do not have to have 50 "house rules" to play.

That makes me a ...

A playtesters job is to "break" the game, and to report these "breaks" to the programmers (hopefully with details on how to repeat said "break"). Have an axe to grind? Not from MY end. Im just doing what I have always done. Report problems that I encounter.

The programmers job is to take said ...

My screen shots not withstanding...

Oh, and this PM from you back on Sept 18th...
I think that Ian changed scenario 2 then saved it back to the same slot. Two reasons;
1. a CVL and a CVE docked at Kure some how make it to the shores of Borneo and Sumatra on turn one and theer is not a Magic TF at ...

Except if you look at the screen shot, that TF is ON THE MAP.... Are you saying that ON MAP TFs, once ordered to head to an off map base are locked in to that until they get there? LOL, ok....

Going back to a non-beta version then.


Except that the TF is OFF the map according to the TF ...

Another new bug.

TF was heading to Capetown. I changed the destination to Mombasa (left home port as Capetown). Hit "Return to Capetown" on the TF screen and go this. Saved the game and reloaded to see if that would clear it and no go.

Most of my research was pre-internet where I had to spend endless hours in libraries, buy books, talk to people that were there. In 1 instance there was an airshow here in Minneapolis (Eden Prairie actually) where they had 5 Marine air medal of honor recipients (Joe Voss, James Swet, and 3 others ...

Meaneye, If you're so upset about the game, Don't play it. Move on to something else....GP


Maybe he needs to start writing what he wants and then code it all but without using any information from this game nor any previous games.


Agreed....GP


Actually I did do that. Just before WitP ...

Manual p.98-99 mentions that Cristobal-Balboa is a normal land movement. Distance is 45 miles, both bases are connected by rail and road.

Any air group, which has disabled aircraft at hand, will have those aircraft moved by rail if the air group's destination is linked by rail.

Were all your ...
