After Turn Ground Loss Report

<t> Several of the recent after Turn ground loss reports, see attachment, show the WA losing several thousand men and the Germans losing very few, for example, the attachment shows my ground loss at 2634 and the German loss is 4. I have had losses due to ship movement attrition but never totaled the ...

RE: Air ops advice

<t> I have played about 40 turns total - 3+7 Husky and 15+15 on the 1943/1945 scenario. So, for what it is worth, I suggest the following Air Planning steps (please note while much is automated, I prefer complexity, detail and micromanagement)[:)]:<br/>
(1) Commanders Report (CR) - start at the CR ...

RE: Malta Fuel Low

Thanks to Helpless, I found/learned/fixed the immediate issue - I thought incorrectly that HQs were involved in the supply flow. Thanks for the comments on railroads.

Malta Fuel Low

<t> I also have a fuel question - Turn 13 playing as the WA and the Malta airgroups can not fly due to Low Fuel. My Malta Air Command window shows IN SUPPLY and more fuel than needed 167/150. I removed the drop tanks on the Spitfires which resulted in insufficient range to reach the desired target ...

RE: WA AP Naval Patrol AD Bug

<t> I think I understand now. First, I checked the attachments for Turns 1, 3/4 and 13, and the coastal air bases show the HHQ as the Coastal Air Force and the OHQ as the Mediterranean Allie. However, on Turn 4, several airbases in the message box at the bottom had a white/clickable statement: SET ...

RE: WA AP Naval Patrol AD Bug

<t> I stopped setting the Naval Patrols manually and use automatic - so I will/can return to setting them manually with no game impact. Minor question, at the end of Turn 3 Movement Phase, the RAF Coastal HQ was hex 79,174. At the beginning of Turn 4 Air Planning, the purple lines are drawn to the ...

Logistics/Supply Question?

<t> This may be a case of information overload - after reading the manual and several threads, the background/question are: Playing as the WA, I just took Messina (Turn 9). Based on the Logistic data (n), there appears to be sufficient depots on the island to not only refit the units but support the ...

RE: German Airbase Reveal

I have full FOW and this is WAD (works as designed)? Another question: where is the best place to post suggestions - in the main thread GWitW?

German Airbase Reveal

This may or may not be a bug - as the WA, if I use F10 for base info, I can see the number of German aircraft at a base, see attached.

Something must have changed - logged in, attached file and prepared/sent message with no problems.

WA AP Naval Patrol AD Bug, Part 2

Try again - only the save file. Got the fakepath message again. Question: even though the file size is 2081kb which is less than the 5000kb max, does the site require a zipped file?

Persistence is not always a virtue - sent the save file by email.

RE: WA AP Naval Patrol AD Bug

I setup the Naval Patrol around GB using their Coastal Command on Turn 1 and this worked fine until Turn 7. Being a newbie, I used this scenario and Husky as a learning exercise, so I plan to delete all saves except the bug save and start again. Thanks for your assistance.

WA AP Naval Patrol AD Bug

I set the Naval Patrol AP AD rather than using the automatic AI. As the WA in Turn 7, there was a bug in the Naval Patrol AD.
