<t> I too am really looking forward to the French scenarios. This is my main area of interest and I was rather afraid that there would only be a 'token couple' included so seeing the list of whats included makes me very happy indeed.<br/>

It might have been nice for a couple of the less well ...

Thanks Hubert, that helps and I will have a rummage in the scripts at some point

<t> Thanks 'Pete and Hubert<br/>
A helpful thread for those of us wedded to SP games.<br/>
With regard to the extra units the AI gets there are a number of descriptions that are not immediately clear to me such as -<br/>
<br/>
"Reinforcements" - E.G 'Reinforcements Mainz 1914'<br/>
"Front Line ...

Why exactly does snipping the rail between Ragusa and Cetinje change things at all? I cut the rail line and I can still rail a German corps right next to Cetinje on turn one. I was ...

<t> Chapeau for asking the question.<br/>
I for one feel increasingly uncomfortable with the black counters (both in digital games and my old boardgames) and it would be refreshing to see something different. Either the camo or different shade of grey as rico21 put forward would work for me<br ...

Thanks Hubert
Its fun playing it for ... well ... fun!

<t> Hello Hubert<br/>
Thanks for the quick replies. I've worked my way around the bonus unit scripts and most are very clear with regard to what and when although some are a little vaguer (e.g. German armoured reserves to Warsaw is one of these IIRC).<br/>
<br/>
I am assuming that if I set the ...

<t> Hello there<br/>
I have been trying to tweak various settings (in both War in Europe and World at War) to give me the challenge I want - which at the moment thanks to other real life issues is something that 'gives me a game' without requiring 100% dedication on my part - and one where I can ...

Sorry, no blog (apologies for confusion, was referring to yours).
Just my own book etc collection.

regards
Ben

<t> "Interested about the background of the French Indochina period? I've got tons of info on my blog."<br/>
<br/>
Thank you, I have most of the books on the French part of the war (that are available in English which sadly are only the tip of the iceberg) but you have unearthed some really ...

Huzzah!
The French have arrived.... really looking forward to the French section of this game

<t> With the social distancing rules now in place in the UK I spent some time playing through a SP player game as Allies using v1.04. With the advantage of hindsight (from previous games) played fairly conservatively and won at the end of 2016.<br/>
<br/>
Out of curiosity at the end of the game I ...

That being said, from a game design perspective,a fairly easy and realistic way to deal with this is to simply have garrisons start in the national morale forts behind the lines in Germany ...

<t> It was soooo tempting to title this 'naval gazing' but I managed to resist... anyhow, playing SC WW1 has made me go back and read a few books on the subject (a 'good thing') - and buy a couple of new ones. My primary reading interest for WW1 is naval (and to a lesser extent air) which of course ...

Hello Bill
I too have had storm damage to transports doing way more than 1 point of damage... by Anzac corps suffered badly, as did another corps plus HQ - I think I commented on this in a previous thread (maybe around new year)

Advanced artillery will crack it I've found.

<t> TBH as the Entente I had the opposite "problem" with German U-Boats insofar I found it relatively easy to hunt them down and sink them. <br/>
That said I did develop ASW warfare from the get go. I found getting to level 1 made a noticeable difference and level 2 and 3 were lethal to the German ...

<t> [EDIT … keyboard died half way through writing this. Now replaced and resuming typing]<br/>
<br/>
I was playing for fun so simply used the default settings. As the Central Powers my experience was not dissimilar to Chernobyl.<br/>
As the Entente I guess I played kind of 'historically' (its ...

<t> Actually dreadnoughts did carry planes later in the war... admittedly they were a 'one shot weapon' in that the plane could be launched (via a flying off platform mounted on one of the turrets) but not recovered (the pilot would have to ditch next to a friendly ship and be picked up!) so were of ...
