thanks for responding and I am having the same errors. <br/>

As you suggested, I did all the compatibility changes, including all the ones for the east front exe subroutines. Because doing the autorun change alone, did not work. <br/>

<r> I'm with the OP on this one. <br/>
<br/>
running a 64 bit machine with Windows 10, I followed Jason's directions. <br/>

1) uninstalled all old versions of Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package <br/>

RE: were are the rail guns and mortars?

These guns operated at extreme range. Isn't there possibly a way to represent them off-map or do you still need the actual unit?

Sorry I don't have an answer to your Q other than if you can't find them in the Unit List for East Front, they probably don't exist.

RE: Supply Rules and Unintended(?) Consequences

<t> I also got 'Fafnir-ed' with a Maginot early strike and although his Sealion failed as a consequence (he said and I'm sure he's right) of the new supply rules, I lost too much naval power and his air forces owned the sky over England, able to bomb at will the living hell out of anything built ...

The use of switching to maintain entrenchment levels as much as possible and not moving troops around on ...

Norway Convoys Gang-Tackled by French Navy

<t> So I've got another opponent brazenly lining up various French raiders right off Denmark in 1939-early 1940, clipping the Norway resources from 40 to 0.<br/>

Notwithstanding that this is grossly ahistorical, is this now a standard tactic for the WA in early war? <br/>

<t> Okay, so the Germans must have beefed up their naval bombing capability too, as he bounced his bombers into the North Sea, from clear weather on land, into storms at sea. Sunk two battleships and assorted destroyers etc. <br/>

His remarkable planes spotted each of my Battleships with ...
