RE: "A Week in..." Scenarios

<t> Gave the Mekong scenario another shot with the 1.01b update. I played the first day and captured every required objective. Two of them still triggered the "For Operations Outside Planned Area of Operations for Day" popup which deducts 1000 EP. This time I wrote them down:<br/>

RE: Request\suggestion

<t> Speaking of sound effects, there's an assault sound file in which "Sanitater!" can be heard being shouted. A leftover remnant from Talonsoft's East Front 2/West Front. (Also, there's another one in which you hear "Corporal Mellish's" (Adam Goldberg) grunts as he tangles with that SS trooper from ...

RE: "A Week in..." Scenarios

<t> I completed the 1st day supply mission as well, but supply wasn't an issue on the first day. So, I didn't pay attention/notice any effects from completing it. The 2nd day, though, watching every turn as my ammo/arty precipitously dropped down to "0" despite my not firing anything just came ...

RE: "A Week in..." Scenarios

<t> Sorry, I can't remember the broken objectives. Wasn't sure if it was a feature or a bug. So, I just played through without marking them down. It happened 4 or 5 times over the course of the two days I played. At least two on the first day island mission and another two or three in the Delta ...

<t> Started playing the Mekong "A Week In" scenario.<br/>

I enjoyed playing the first day. However, when I followed orders by sending a certain battalion to take control that large island, some of the objectives on that island triggered the "not following orders" popup which deducts 1,000 ...

RE: No combining units into leaders?

<t> With WSS, you cannot combine leaders with troops and create subunits like one can in most other Ageod games. There are no corps, divisions, or even ECW's or TYW's "groups."<br/>
<br/>
Leaders works in WSS work very much like how they did in Ageod's earlier titles such as WIA where you could ...

You guys seem to be missing my point. Ageod's AI is dynamic. It reacts to what you're doing. Long term planning doesn't matter since it evaluates it's situation on a turn by turn basis. In a lot ways that's the same exact way I play the game. I ...

I wonder if it's true - as someone above said - that it does no long-term planning? I hope that's fake news. For instance, raising recruits is essential in the longer games and I cannot think they've actually designed an AI that doesn't do ...

RE: Parliament play so far

<t> It's no easier on the Royalist side. The game is very stingy in doling-out war supplies which practically halts the ability to recruit new units or buy replacement chits.<br/>

I'm playing the Royalists. It's 1644 and I'm lucky if I'm able to purchase one replacement chit per turn. I have ...

However, I was disappointed to see that Marshal Grouchy has a generic portrait like the ones featured in the OP. C'mon! That's just sloppy. Marshal Grouchy isn't some obscure brigade or division commander. There ...

RE: Why so littile discussion?

<t> I agree that the new UI was step-back from Gettysburg's. (It appears it was an attempt to make the game more accessible to fans of Total War and similar RTS tactical games. I suspect it failed to bring in any sizeable new audience and ticked-off long-time SOW fans. The worst of both worlds. Reb ...
