You could have an entire team dedicated to doing that and still not offer the same experience as playing against real intelligence as that decision tree approaches infinity

Totally understand. Thanks, Alvaro.

No

No I'm not alone or no you don't think that the file size limit should be updated to allow clear images of gameplay?

<r> Please don't take this the wrong way...<br/>

Needing to up the unit strength is a poor replacement for intelligence. It frustrates intelligent decisionmaking by forcing overloading. Yes, intelligence will usually beat strenth, but a fair fight where intelligent decisionmaking is the only ...

<t> Does anyone else feel like this forum platform could use an update? While it's cool to feel like I'm back in the early 2000s again, there are some important improvements that could be made. <br/>
<br/>
- Number one on my list is the file size that's permitted for upload. With the increase in ...

Historical. I didn't think the difficulty level would change decisionmaking ability, only make the units beefier. Is that not correct?

<t> Hi Alvaro,<br/>
<br/>
I ran into a situation where, playing as Allies, I took Copenhagen before the Germans could. This may be resolved in a new version because I know you made Copenhagen easier to take for the Germans, but what happened was that they would send a Pz Corps in, kick my troops ...

Very true. Have you read Stuka Pilot?<br/>

<t> I was spitballing on another thread and thought I'd see what people think about an espionage/sabotage mechanic. One thing I think this game lacks is the unknown factor...what does the enemy know and when did they know it?<br/>
<br/>
Imagine two new tech trees for espionage and sabotage. <br ...

I'm going to start a new thread for this. That got pretty off-topic.

<t> It could be cool to have the defenses show up as units of unknown type on the map to deter invasion. I do wish there was a tech line for espionage too for a chance to reveal enemy forces for a turn. Each level granting additional hexes that may be revealed for a small cost (20?) with a 50/50 ...

Do you have a write up of what your changes are in the A3R mod?

<t> I was the one playing as Axis. I'm complaining about my own success, lol. You're right, he should have defended London better. No doubt.<br/>
<br/>
Thinking back on it, it was actually over two turns, not one. First I took London with the parachute division (which should probably be strenth 10 ...

Thinking more about my pacification function, you'd probably want to sum the strength rather than doing it for each to prevent rounding penalty or exploit (10 or 20, respectively).

<t> I'm not sure about your mechanics, but I see you have eliminated a minefield hex. While that's good, one could still paradrop to Harwich, take the aircraft to the SW, take the minefield (unless there was a unit immediately south of the minefield, NW of Dover). It wouldn't be possible to take ...

<t> Hi Alvaro,<br/>
<br/>
I have a historical question. What saved GB in 1939/40 is the fact that DE lacked both a navy that could challenge the British fleet and, even if they could, also lacked a fleet of transports/landing craft large enough to stage an invasion. So, both of those parts are ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>I would be very happy if the message stating that a port have been interdicted could name this actual port, not only the hex position.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

I've thought about this too. I wish that the notifications in the Report were clickable just like the alerts ...

Hmm...this was some time ago, but I remember where I was - Hex 119,73. The log, as far as I remember, said "submarine interdiction." It seemed like I attacked them automatically and they retaliated.

<t> Ah, I didn't realize about the port size. That's probably the problem with repairing. As far as the rest, I can attest that the subs were in raider mode and were not near land. They just keep getting sunk. The French managed to sink them in an interdiction. I feel like this should not be ...
