RE: OT-Custer's Last Stand-GoogleMap

<t> There is a website by a college called "famous trials." The Reno inquiry is on there. It is something to read the first person testimony by those who served in that battle and Gen. Terry's XO was the first to discover the area where Custer was found. His description of when he rode across that ...

RE: Trouble with Rebaul

<t> Thanks for the replies. I'm playing allies vs ai in full campaign. I have no intention of invading Rebaul. I just need to do something about the number of aircraft there. They cover a large area. They even hit shipping west of Port Moresby. This time around I occupy Shortlands and this seems to ...

Trouble with Rebaul

Need suggestions to deal with Rebaul. The aircraft coming out of there have a very far reach which is really hurting me. My attempts to reduce their air strength has been minimal. I had 40 bombers at Shortlands and they were reduced to a handful in 5 days of missions.

Game won't start

RE: Supply Question

<t> You are right. I have no idea how overland supply works. I know how to supply a base but I don't know how to supply an army in the field from the ground or if it can be done. It would be nice if we could form a convoy of trucks like you can ships. All I'm trying to figure out is when my army ...

RE: Supply Question

<t> I'm only 6 months in but I already have a large force at Rangoon and Moulmein and fighter cover but lacking bombers for the moment. I have been attacked by air but they have taken a heavy toll and In the last 2 weeks of June 42 I haven't been hit. In previous plays I was under siege by this time ...

Supply Question

I control Moulmein and Tavoy is a threat. I want to send a large force down the highway and attack rather than by amphibious assault. As long as I hold Moulmein, is that force automatically supplied or do I have to supply it myself and how?

Supply question

Rather than load ships and take a large hit in assault losses, I want to send a large force down the highway to Tavoy. As long as I hold Moulmein, will that force be automatically supplied or is there a different ...

Play with VR

I have a rift hmd and I have a app called big screen and I used it for WIP. It's pretty good. I'm a little old so it really helped with the tired eyes thing.

Multi monitor problem

<t> Hi all. I have a 3 monitor setup. I get black spaces over the information windows in AE. In them appears to be periods and hyphons or something. It's a pain to disable the surround to play AE. I have tried reducing my resolution to 1920x1080 so only one screen is being used but I still get the ...

Allies: The first 6 months to year

I'm curious about your strategy in the first 6 - 12 months as allies. do you get aggressive or make a stand somewhere? Do you use your units as soon as they are available? Where on the map do you concentrate on in the first 6 months?

Also what's up with all the Jap carriers in this game? I have 3 TF"s heading toward me and the have 16 carriers. They also just took ...

Nothing in red. But sure ...

Question about Carriers

<t> I'm early in a campaign as the allies. I have a couple carriers patrolling around Port Moresby and sent one to Sydney because I was low on sorties. They didn't rearm and reset. They took aircraft replacements but still low on sorties. Is PH the only place I can go to rearm my Carriers or get ...

What's the trick to loading troops?

<t> Most recent troop loading on my ships I show troop space 18,600 and equip space 30,648. I used 11,868 troop and 17,667 equip and when I verify the load it shows I don't have room for 1430 troops and about 1576 in equip. I end up with fragmented units. Turning on "load troops only" doesn't help ...
