RE: A question about 'recon'?

Yeah I just posted a new thread on this.. Maybe I should delete it. I think not having a "recon patrol" option is unrealistic.

Can I make a recon patrol?

<t> Say I have 3 or 4 units around an enemy unit. In the morning after a night turn, no enemy is shown, but know he is there. <br/> <br/> Is there a way to probe or recon the blank hex? Normally I would just blunder into it and get excessive losses. I don't really want to move all my units next to i...

RE: loadouts

"I do all manual loadouts for my air groups to make sure I get what I think is best."

It may be that the AI cannot figure out anything related to the air war and you have to micro manage every little aspect when all you wanted to do was overrun Metz on the fly and cross the Rhine.

RE: headaches matching air units to air bases

<t> The whole air war portion is not what I wanted when I purchased this game. I want a D-Day style invasion of Europe with a real supply function. I want some CAS and some limited use of bombers and I want easier control over corp level assets.<br/> <br/> I can take some micro management of a strat...

RE: This is so hard

I have yet to figure out how to win as german. I captured smolensk and had to give it up. Lenningrad? Ha! Kiev seems to be protected by 30 divisions.

After a while I just started requesting extra trains, fuel and PP every turn just to get moving.
