RE: What Do You Think Needs to be in World In Flames PC Game

<t> Hi Steve,<br/>
<br/>
After experimenting with the game for many weeks now (and loving it, bugs and all), can I make a suggestion on something that I think will improve gameplay and time.<br/>
<br/>
With the A2A combat, can the aborting of aircraft be handled like that for ships? Can the ...

I first click the left icon which brings up the main MWIF window (i.e. Play World in Flames, Tutorials and ...

RE: Not able to load units

Celebrindal,

I have used Embarking as detailed by Steve above without any problems. I suspect you have missing seeing the button 'load from coastal hex'. You are not alone, I also missed it the first time I tried it.

RE: Defending AA fire from AA Divs causes Madexcept

Hi Steve,

In addition to the above. I also tried this but instead of using the AA, I pressed the 'end of phase button'. The result was that the game crashed and I had to close it via windows.

Thanks.

Brett.

RE: Paying for oil

Thanks for clarifying this Steve & Terje439.

I hadn't played with AFA Option 48 before due to the complex task of paperwork in recording it all. MWIF makes this so much easier and because of MWIF, I will now always choose this option.

RE: Paying for oil

I was wondering if someone could clarify this oil query?

If I send oil to a factory to produce Build Points, can this same oil be used for reorganisation?

I have looked in both RAC and RAW and couldn't find an answer.
