<t> We should perhaps move this to another thread at some point. But a few mixed comments:<br/>

- I currently have armor values as follows (based on a formula including only thickness and angle, but neither tank size nor speed):<br/>
Type 1: 36<br/>
M3 Stuart: 27<br/>
M5 Stuart: 37<br ...

<r> I also didn't want to knock on the babes scenarios. They're great and massive improvements.<br/>
<br/>
But in this specific area: armor and penetration values of AFVs and tank guns they have a ton of inconsistencies.<br/>
<br/>
Concerning the Sherman V and it's odd values (60/120): They are ...

5. Why are armor levels of tanks still so "off" in stock as well in "da babes", in the latter they tried to rectify this - but they are off too. Eg. the Sherman / M10 which had TOO HIGH armor in stock, now has TOO LOW in "babes". It is possible ...

<t> I think most of the arguments have been put forward and many of the good. But unfortunately many people seem only interested in confirming their pre-existing bias.<br/>

Chickenboy, your description is very graphic, but seems to be mainly interested in painting the most gruesome picture ...

In Burma, its quiet and the B-29s stood down. Despite not flying a single mission, more B-29s need maintenance! <br/>

When you stand down an air group the mechanics will (over the next few turns) look at ...

Thanks for posting, it's very interesting and different to other movies of the time in it's down to earth, every day life way.

Green means increased in the last turn,
orange means increased in the last week (but not the last turn).

I sure hope you're right on the "boots on the ground" theory BB, but the 20 hexes do apply here - from the manual:<br/>

Kamikazes are activated if the Allies own a base within 15 hexes (traced by ...

MakeeLearn got it right in #3: The Tran is on the way to Train as he is in the "Neue Bahnhofsstraße" - The "New Railwaystation Street"

<t> This is the total number pilots currently (off map) in the replacement pilot pipeline. Since this pipeline takes 12 month it is roughly 12 times the replacement pilot rate (sum of IJN+IJA). This is fixed for the scenario (but depends on the current year) and can't be influenced by the player in ...

As for heavy water, there are two types: deuterium with one extra neutron in the hydrogen (making the atom twice as heavy) and tritium with two extra neutrons. I hadn't heard before now about needing heavy water to get the enriched hydrogen ...

Thanks for the sharing. 4.5 hours sounds like a good length to listen to in transit on my trip to Prague.

<t> If he is serious about northern Australia he might not push into India at all. In your last game he played fairly conservative in terms of expansion and besides him beeing more aggresively in China this time he still is. So if Australia is major undertaking, he might not start a second push ...

Welcome back Bill! Good to hear you're doing better.

Edit: I wrote junk, because I misread the title, sorry!

<r> Seems like you can buy your own piece of WW2 real estate: The towers that flanked the eastern end of the Ludendorff Bridge (better know as the bridge of Remagen) are beeing sold to the highest bidder. They are in very bad need of renovation though:<br/>

The game can be copied at will - after it has been installed once on the computer. So after you made the install you can write your (perhaps modded and customized) game folder over it or in any other location on the computer. There is no need to patch up and modify the new install.

<t> AFAIK each day there is a die roll of ([REPLACEMENT_RATE] + [PRODUCTION_RATE])/30 to determine if a plane is produced or not (if this is >= 1, than the number before the decimal point is the guaranteed production and the rest is die rolled). So with replacement rate 24, you have a daily 80 ...

<t> I don't know if this is causing your specific problem, but I found out a while ago that some leaders are assigned to more than one post. In this case the first unit/air group/ship (by ID number) gets the leader and all subsequent units/air groups/ships get a random leader instead. This even ...
