RE: Truck Summary in logistics Phase Report is hard to understand:

Does anyone know if it's possible to use the editor to modify a current save-game. End goal would be to change certain event time frames or to change a 41 regular campaign to a no early end 41 campaign. If there is another method of doing so, anything is welcome.

RE: Quick Questions Thread

Whenever I put a ground attack directive, with planes assigned and within range, with unit and interdiction selected. Once completing air phase, the directive is deleted and no enemy units are bombed. Can anyone clarify what im doing wrong?

RE: Encircling Leningrad

Ah, I didn't realise there were issues with the version. I was using version 01.00.07. I've now installed the 01.01.07 update, hopefully i can continue my save with the new patch and the encirclement might work.

Encircling Leningrad

<t> I have some experience from WitE and encircling Leningrad usually meant you take the ports around ladoga this would then result in the isolation of the city and its surrounding divisions including leftovers in Estonia. However, in WitE 2 this is not the case, I've taken osinovets, kobona and ...

Campaign acting weird

<t> I am currently in a PBEM in around the summer of 44. I am playing the soviets, until now everything was going okay. However the latest turn everything has started to act weird. Some German units which were encircled have just simply vanished from the encirclement (Just the SS Panzer divisions it ...

RE: German tanks

<t> Okay i understand that but my point is not more along the lines of attrition. The best way for the soviets to win is to slowly bleed to axis dry and i dont mind loosing 100 tanks per engagement, just that the axis lose too few tanks to make it even economical to attack. Currently the axis have ...

German tanks

<t> I understand that german tanks in 41 and 42 are made of some sort of invulnerable compound yet i dont understand when im in 1943 and im attacking with a tank ratio of 3 to 1 and losing some 100+ tanks (t-34 are half those losses) and they only lose 2 or 3. What am i supposed to do to try and ...

It looks nice on paper to have a lot divisions on the front. Even if those divisions are at half strength or non-existent.

Im seeing a total collapse of the far south sector that is currently being guarded by the Rumanians incoming with hope of relief by said occupied panzers.

RE: Teun557 (Axis) vs Seminole (Soviet) - Bitter End

Its quite clear that the players are mismatched in terms of skill and experience. The game will most likely not be enjoyable for either side unless drastic changes take place in the next couple of turns.

Last Years of the War

<t> I see a lot of talk and complaints about the early war and how overpowered the axis are and how panzer are supermen. While those facts might be true. I feel that towards the end of the war there isn't really much point in playing once the soviets retake the initiative. No matter how many tanks i ...

RE: Design Criticism

<t> The game becomes very bloody later on in the game, and i feel that the game is unfair towards the axis towards the later stages of the war. So you can complain about soviet problems of which there are plenty but i feel that the axis side is not perfect either. Which is what some soviet players ...

HQ Build-up question

Does HQ-building up panzer divisions affect their defensive capabilities during the soviet turn, as in do they get any negative rolls or debuffs due to them being in the process of hq-building up.

What are the casualties at as well as OOB?

Also what are your concerns regarding AGN, is taking leningrad still a priority or is Moscow the main focus now?
