None of my UK units could approach (to attack) this German sub, hexes were "off limits"? I saved/exited game then reloaded and now I can. Just thought I'd mention it.

Thanks. Not terribly surprising, just asking in case it was a bug.

When playing the Confederates, the garrison in Jefferson City apparently surrendered while still at strength 4 the end of the second turn it was attacked. Is this normal?

I had this happen with another game that I thought shouldn't be too graphically taxing. Turned out to be an Nvidia Geforce Experience issue, for some reason it thought that game needed max graphics settings, including fan speed. After playing with the settings didn't seem to help, I ended up ...

Could it be that your successes had dropped enemy Fighting Spirit below 10%?

Yeah that was it, at 8%. Apparently it took a steep drop after Richmond then continued to fall quickly. I only just learned that Richmond didn't fall until almost the end of the war so I can see why it would be a big ...

Also, Windows Explorer is the desktop GUI, so if you use Windows you use explorer. I meant File Explorer, which you can use to change that setting. Right-click start, select File Explorer, then in it click View then check the box for File Name Extensions. After than the extensions will be visible ...

Thanks. The reason I was looking into it was because I got an unexpected Union Major Victory after capturing Nashville, Memphis, and Richmond. I don't see this listed.

The message you're getting ( chose an "application" to open the file) means the extension is not .exe, as Windows knows how to treat that file type. Unlike Linux, Windows uses the extension to determine the file type (carried over from MS Dos, not the best way). If you open a command prompt (click ...

Are you sure that you are renaming it to end in ".exe"? Not ".exe." btw. Windows will try to execute any file that you double-click that has a .exe extension, and if it isn't a proper executable you should get the below error message:

Possibly you do not have file name extensions enabled ...

Shouldn't the conditions be listed here (as in SC)? Are they listed somewhere else?

Thanks. I wondered because the tutorial suggests that it should be easily taken in one or two turns.

I've been attacking Jefferson City on every side for three turns and the unit's entrenchment never decreases. I've gotten strength down to 1 twice but then reinforces and I'm back where I started. Should entrenchment decrease after each infantry attack?

<t> I've always been impressed by the AI given the complexity of the game, and think it makes for a good exercise for refreshing yourself on basic strategy and game flow. That being said it's far from perfect, so I try to make it a rule not to exploit the times in which the AI makes really poor ...

I think there is a not too uncommon misconception that Russian level 3 infantry are superior to level 2 infantry of other major powers.

<t> Well I learned something from this thread, as I am one of those who only thought he understood supply chaining. And why my strat bombing of cities did nothing to slow the Axis overrun of my defense of Egypt. I'm not sure I have a valid opinion on what is best, only that I wouldn't be surprised ...

The manual doesn't mention a limit to the max length of an HQ chain. My experience has been that it is two. Ie, one "remote" HQ linked to a "base" one. Any additional HQs are on there own. Just wondering if my observations are correct, as the manual doesn't mention this limit.

Game does show up now but I get "file size mismatch" when I try to select. Thanks for trying though, I'll try Matrix support as you suggested.

Due to a lag in the screen refresh, I unintentionally closed out a PBEM game between myself and forestrouse. Is there any way to un-close it?

I was joking about the sub nets, as I assumed the "harbor penetration tech" upgrade was also a joke. Maybe they were playing a mod in which that tech was added? If so, I apologize for the confusion.

When your opponent researches harbor penetration you have to counter with anti-submarine nets.
