Also, the MP differential for Supply across appears to be too low (It seems like there is no loss of Soviet Supply to large number of units in the Crimea even when sole-sourced via the Ferry). This would be compounded if there is no effective way to perform Naval Interdiction. Continuous Rail vs ...

It seems like the whole point of Naval Interdiction WOULD BE to interdict a place like the Kerch Straits...

Thanks Joel for your quick reply!! Not sure why it would be in my version and not duplicated elsewhere (I am not a programmer and haven't tinkered with anything). Have to think about what you said a bit as there is a lot to take in there. I do know that in my case, in none of the 7 times I ran the ...

Thanks Tyronec, I could see a scripted AI move sequence due to the rationale you described for the AI. Here, however, the very outcome of a battle itself is rigged, with the Soviets clearly "overcooked", in such a way that the Soviet CV is Jacked WAY up. Furthermore, the combat results outcome is ...

I noticed the same thing in the 1.04 Beta

I have loved this game for years (WITE and WITE2). In fact, I was one of the first purchasers of WITE when it first came out and have bought every add-on and the hardbound Manual in the years since. Played a lot of smaller AI games over the years but raising a family, etc. didn't allow me but one ...

This is very interesting. In a Crimea-related observation, is the Soviet player's supply to the Crimea unaffected when the overland rail lines from the North are cut? From a 1941 CG I'm currently playing, they don't seem to be. IMO supply should be heavily reduced due to having to having no ...

Great work, Weidrock! Thank You!!

I think the following areas need revision to restore historical accuracy to the system:

1. Soviets shouldn't be prevented from fleeing in 1941 BUT game system needs some tradeoff for this behavior. I think paying a real price for the lost factory withdrawals, as mentioned above, is the way to ...

This was absolutely FANTASTIC! Great Job!!

The original post contains SPOT ON observations! The current imbalances are so pro-Soviet that they ruin the gameplay between equally matched opponents. BUT, I think these observations get to the heart of the matter for an elegant fix that restores play balance and historical realism. I agree that a ...

I'm up for giving you a game. Love this game since it came out. Think we should play the latest 1.04. Beta patch. I will play till the end. Last time I played multiplayer was probably 7 years ago as the Axis and got my butt kicked (It was the Summer '43 Scenario). My opponent was very good but I am ...

This will be my first game against a human opponent. Can turn around 3 turns per week

Thanks so much for the quick response! I've had this game for years and still think it is just amazing (and am still learning about it). All the Best - Jim

Can't find this in the manual, any help from the forum? Thanks, Jim
