Re: Tactical vs strategic bombing of ports

The easiest way to shut down a port is to do naval interdiction missions on the water hexes adjacent to the port/s you want to shut down. If all water routes have enemy interdiction levels two higher than friendly interdiction levels the port can't import/export anything no matter how little damage ...

Re: Bombers not flying strategic bombing missions

The asterisks for Factories are explained on page 214 of the living manual. But yeah I can totally understand that the information is hard to find.

Re: Bombers not flying strategic bombing missions

Hi, just checking are you in 1943 or 1944/45 because the v-weapons sites only become active once you reach 1944 and you can't bomb them before they activate.

Re: Questions Ground Attack / Ground Support

Hi, this is my understanding of the system, someone can correct me if I get anything wrong.

If you manually assign a squadron to an Air directive then it will only fly as part of that directive and not fly any other missions. So in order to get a squadron to fly both ground attack and ground ...

Re: Amphibious HQ Question

You get two additional Amphibious HQs in late Feb 1944 but that won't be enough for DDay. You should move 3 or more HQs to England by Feb to build prep points for the invasions, remember the larger the port the faster the prep.

Re: Quick Questions Thread

I think that turn 18 is the normal time for heavy mud. Light rain will never create heavy mud as it has doesn't add water above a limit of 5 and heavy mud needs 6-9 water so requires heavy rain.

The mud doesn't transfrom to snow, cold weather means the water levels in a hex have no effect. So when ...

Re: Do support units attached to paratroop units..

I know that attached paratroop support units drop with a unit. I'm sure that armoured/motorised support units would not drop as the transport planes can't carry them. I have not tried with an engineer support unit but I think they can't be combat dropped.

I usually just assign the support units I ...

Re: Do special forces units attached...

Hi, I convert the special forces units from on map to support units and then attach them to the amphibious HQs. This allows two divisions to stack with the amphibious HQ's.

Hi I would be happy to give you a game. I have played a couple multiplayer games as the allies, haven't played as the Germans yet, should be intersting. I should be able to keep up with a turn a day, timezones permitting as I am in Australia.

RE: GC 1941 Opp Wanted

<t> Hi, I'm up for a game. I have played two PBEM games of GC 1941 WIET2 one as each side but only got midway through first winter. Those games were soon after release though so I would be a bit rusty as I haven't played in a while. <br/>

RE: Specific altitude requirements for tac bomber rocket attacks?

<t> The altitude doesn't change what ordnance a plane uses, that is determined on an individual squadron basis. When selecting and opening the details of a squadron there is information on their current loadout and you can click to change it. <br/>

RE: Bug?? Took Riga with a scouted attacked.

I don't think it is a bug. I believe that there is a chance a low morale and TOE% unit can rout or shatter on defense even if the combat odds are less than 2:1

RE: Truck lend-lease in '45. I am so screwed.

<t> Yeah vehicle and supplies lend lease in 1945 is reduced dramatically, this is historical because by this point it was clear that Germany had lost and also the Western allies had large land forces to supply. Hopefully your front line at this point is close enough to Berlin to win the game within ...
