Getting a weird text bug with placenames, screenshot attached.

Seems to reset to the proper position if you change the full screen status (key shortcut is alt+enter). Then just change it back to whatever you prefer.

<t> Currently on Build 936.9 but have noticed this on previous builds as well:<br/>
<br/>
Frequently, when in group view, the "status" of groups i.e. the line of text in the right hand bar saying whether the group is RTB, tasked on mission, etc. keeps disappearing. I'm not sure what is causing ...

Does "re-worked and re-mastered" mean that anything has actually changed or does it just mean the exact same game + updates currently available are being moved to Steam

<t> It's not just relationship changes either. I had no idea what the any of the rail infrastructure decisions do (apparently if infrastructure is bad it reduces the effective number of trains that can operate on that route?) until a few turns after I had already made the decision. The game doesn't ...

<t> That's roughly around the time that the real life Soviets were launching major counteroffensives around the Smolensk area against Army Group Center, so actually that seems about right. Thanks to all the Wehrmacht worshipers ([:)]) it often gets overlooked that Soviet counterattacks from the ...

Hi,<br/>
<br/>
The Power Rating is a consolidated combat value that adjust straight combat power by readiness, experience and morale. <br/>
<br/>
It allows you to compare units on a roughly equivalent basis.<br/>
<br/>
Before initiating ...

<t> Agreed. A lot of the decisions are pretty opaque as to what actual gameplay effect they will have. In some cases that makes sense for role playing, but there are situations where I am completely baffled as to why certain choices made some characters mad and others pleased. Not great when you ...

<t> The amount of abstraction in DCB is great. What matters is the practical effect. What purpose would corps HQs serve other than to add a whole bunch of clutter and tedious micromanagement? At this scale each HQ would only be responsible for a couple of units. That's a lot of extra counters. What ...

<t> It represents the number of elements in that particular unit. For example, infantry is divided into blocks of 200 and guns into blocks of 10, so a typical German infantry division is 50 infantry blocks (10000 men) plus 18 gun blocks (180 guns) and that gives you a power rating of 68. It's just a ...

<t> My problem is that while the devs say the Geneva Convention stuff isn't supposed to be biased towards one side or another, in practice it does present a whitewashed view of the Wehrmacht. I have not yet seen any mention of things like the Commissar Order, or the order that specified that any ...

<t> Unlike WitE the Soviets have the potential to make damaging counterattacks as they historically did during the summer, even in the first few turns. The other thing I appreciate here over WitE is the fact that surrounded units don't just evaporate after a turn and require a commitment of forces ...

Yeah, as long as they stay in the city they will be supplied even if the city is cut off.

I just started a new game and I also do not have a garrison in Brest. I don't know if the manual is wrong or if it's a bug with the patch.

<t> The command decisions layer and RPG-like elements of this game are fantastic. This is the direction I have always wanted to see computer wargames head into, instead of the usual "board game with a few thousand more counters/hexes and unnecessary micromanagement." If this could be combined with a ...

Are the changes save game compatible or should I start a new game?

You could, but none of those are Valve so I'm not sure how that's relevant. I take it you think Valve will eventually turn into an evil conglomerate ...

<t> Have you taken a look at any of the sales data published by developers, flanyboy? There were a whole bunch of links posted to these a page back or so. Typically sales are large on day 1 and drop to almost nothing shortly after release (for indies at least). When these games are put on sale ...

Thank you, Valve. You prove my point with your silly Tron-bot Steampunk devices far more than I can with rhetoric alone.

That's funny, I thought Valve proved their point by experimentation and research, becoming rich as hell, and owning the ...

<t> The race to the bottom isn't really happening in the PC market. If anything more people are buying games at full price than ever. Increased exposure from sales also means more people developing loyalties to certain games/developers and continuing to make purchases from them. Paradox is a good ...

<t> Standard grognard defense: the only niche games are the ones with hexes, NATO counters and Windows 95 interfaces. <br/>

Football Manager is actually a niche title in a niche genre. Games consisting mostly of spreadsheets aren't exactly a huge fad, but niche games can be popular (look at ...
