Why is it that German AS sometimes has a maximum range of 8 but sometimes you can go to 9 ?
This is early war, after T2 and using 109 F2s, though 109 F4s seem to be the same.

The first pic shows range 9 working.
The second/third pics is for a different AS AD. It works at 8 but at 9 it is showing ...

I move them on different rail lines, so they don't use up too much capacity on one.
It doesn't matter so much early on in the game as the rail lines have spare capacity.

Don't go over capacity.
I usually move 9th Army to AGN, sometimes put corps directly under OKH or generally shuffle things around.

Yes, I wouldn't recommend it with TBs open !

These are what I have been using recently, I wouldn't claim that they balance things perfectly because that would require a lot more testing but I think they help.
Germany/Finland/Slovakia - Early 0. Late +5.
Italy/Romania/Hungary - Early +5. Late +10.
Soviet - Early. 0, Late 0.

That is the one I meant, and yes it is outdated but still worth looking through.
I don't know if there is a airbase bombing guide for the current patch.

There are details given if you scroll through the war room.
I generally focus on the VVS fighters, except opposite Romania where I target the bombers too, shifting some air groups South to get more attacks in there.
Apart from the Crimea, I only do escorted attacks.
Get around 3k kills for 150 Axis ...

I would agree that the later game is biased in favor of the Soviets and that if you start from an historical position in '43 then they should be able to win.
However there are morale modifiers now so that you can adjust that so I don't think that the post by Pat_ge is valid.

Thanks.

IIRC it was reduced from 3 to 2 to help the Soviets since the Germans were very often advancing too fast.

Thanks.
But my main question is, are these changes documented and where can I look them up ?

I have just reinstalled the game and the manual seems to be the same at is has been since the beginning, they are dated 2019 & 2022.
Is there any updated version available OR a list of changes from patches ?

One thing I have noticed is that in the manual:
'Rail is repaired at a rate of 3 hexes per ...

Open again, PM me if interested.

Personally I don't think there will be a WITE3, though I don't have any inside information.
This could be the last we see of this type of wargame for some time that tries to simulate on this scale with historical accuracy.
It is a shame as clearly the game has made great strides forwards since WITE1 ...

I don't think you can get enough interdiction to make a difference.
Think you would need basic interdiction on the rough hexes to add 1MP and perhaps 40 bombers or so for the open hexes to get it up to level 1-2.
So that is 2-300 bombers to make a line of interdiction that is only going to slow the ...

Open again, PM me if interested.

As Q-Ball says, I would recommend playing the attacking player if you are against the AI. So Axis early war or the Soviets later war. The AI is just not much good at attacking.

There used to be an exploit where the Soviet player could build airborne brigades, convert them to divisions and then build more brigades - thus circumnavigating the build limit.
Has this been removed in one of the patches or is it still there ?

Marked are the SW Front area getting +10MOR

I wasn't aware of this rule, can you elaborate on it.

In all cases, though, you can "Push" an SU down one level. For example, I have pushed an SU from a Front HQ in Kerch to an Army HQ in Sevastopol.

Thanks, I had forgotten that.
You can 'push' SUs across to Lenningrad when it is cut off.

Supplied units across the Kerch straight that are unconnected by land don't seem to be able to attach support units.
Is there a rule that for SUs there has to be a land link to the rail network ?
