Re: How to fix "Hull is too narrow"

Thank you very much! How will I know when the restrictions loosen? Is it a tech, or does it just happen?

How to fix "Hull is too narrow"

On my first game of RTW3, but I have dozens if not hundreds of hours in RTW1 and 2, and I've never seen this message before when trying to design a BC:

"Hull is too narrow for speed > 18 kt and triple/quad turrets in A or Y positions and TPS more than 1."

FWIW, the AI auto-designs ships for me ...

RE: MQ-25A will not refuel other AC

<t> What type of refueling probe does the EA-18G have, and what type of refueling does the MQ-25A do? My guess is that the EA-18G might be capable only of probe-and-drogue refueling, while the MQ-25A might be a boom refueler.<br/>

RE: WCS Bug in Kashmir Fire Shoreline Scenario

Ah, thanks! I've just never encountered a scenario before where the units didn't immediately go onto their mission or side WCS. Not a bug, then!

[WAD] WCS Bug in Kashmir Fire Shoreline Scenario

<t> I was playing Shoreline with the newest build today and noticed some odd behavior--my CAP weren't actually firing their missiles. The reason given for this was that WCS was set to Weapons HOLD. I thought that was odd, and then went to idiot-check myself. Sure enough, both the Side Doctrine and ...

RE: Which DLC

<t> The above advice is really good. If you've read all the DLC descriptions and all the advice above and nothing still sticks out to you, I'd recommend Desert Storm, as long as you don't mind doing primarily air ops. The DLC often gives you a harder challenge than the Coalition faced in reality ...

RE: Yellow Difficulty and Complexity

But bear in mind that these are assigned by the scenario designers, and there ...

RE: How to calculate engine for trucks (motorized transport)?

I've never replaced the default truck model in any of my games. They're usually perfectly fine for everything you'd want them to do. Maybe in the super late game you get some techs that might make new models worth it, but for the most part you don't need to worry about your trucks.

<t> An option to set "Keep [X] number of units on station" as an alternative to "of each class." This would really help in situations where I'm managing a multinational force that has a ton of different units that do the same thing, I need only one total on station at any time, but I have only one ...

Irish-Spanish Fish War Scoring Issue

<t> Just wanted to mention that the Civilian RHIBs mounted on one of the Irish patrol boats count as "ships" for scoring triggers, so, say, purely hypothetically ([;)]) that the very first Spanish salvo destroys the RHIBs but does almost nothing else to damage the parent ship, it tanks your scenario ...

RE: What is the advantage of having a corporation?

<t> It gives you more events/stuff to deal with. It's not necessarily an advantage; it's kind of like cults in that it can be very beneficial if you get good events and handle the corporation well, or it can be a serious frustration. I've generally been able to manage corporations well in my games ...
