Re: Playing the AI

Yes, many people play the game SP only. I do not have the ability to play extremely long games via some sort of play by email setup. I buy a game so I can sit down an play it, without long waits between turns and games that stretch out to eternity. As such, a game with a poor AI is to me only a very...

RE: New Player Questions - Finally Jumped In

<t> I know its just personal, but for me, the only way to play this game is to turn off all AI assist. That's both in the air game and with support units.<br/> <br/> To me, this game works much better if you just dive in and take control. <br/> <br/> And in one way, that makes sense. These are big a...

Where is the luftwaffe?

<t> It may be a related issue, it is certainly a part of the 'air game'..... but my question is "where is the Luftwaffe?"<br/> <br/> I'm playing a grand campaign as antifascist against the computer. It is turn 3. The latest official release. I checked the Air execution part of the logistics turn det...

RE: The status of the air game as of 1.02.01

<t> So, yes, it would be hard to intercept a single, out-of-the-blue airstrike over a front-line hex. But, this game is simulating a week's worth of battles. Thus, if one instead imagines a front-line hex of importance to the command that is having constant enemy ground support missions on call to t...

Political Points and Settings

<r> Suggestion: Don't charge Political Points to look at a screen.<br/> <br/> This is from a new player, trying to learn the game. To begin with, it can be a bit confusing trying to remember what setting you saw where. You know you saw it somewhere, but you don't quite remember where. Was it under a...

RE: Is there a way to turn off screen edge mouse scroll?

<t> I wish it didn't scroll after I leave the app. I'm new to this app, so maybe I'm missing something. But now when I leave the app to read the manual or do something else, the map keeps scrolling and scrolling. <br/> <br/> Seems like I've had other apps that as soon as I click on another window an...

RE: Post manual typos here

<t> Oh, and the text about an "x + x" format probably is a typo. "x + y format" would be closer. Although, since the 'y' is for Dismissal Cost, 'x + DC' might be even clearer.<br/> <br/> In Algebra, the x + x would imply that both numbers are the same. 'x plus x' converts to just '2x' or two times t...

RE: Post manual typos here

<r> This is more a story to tell about a whole section.<br/> <br/> The story began when the game interface blocks me from seeing the proposed costs of leader changes. Since the button is tied to AP cost, the player is apparently only allowed to think about leaders early in the turn. So, I decided to...

Administrative Move

<t> My question concerns how likely Administrative Move is likely to change in upcoming patches? I ask because the current system (x.07 patch) appears to have created large changes in the Soviet situation in early turns. If you've playtested this extensively and like it, then I'll learn the ramifica...

RE: RADM Yamaguchi's Diary (Pls no affins or cheesesteak)

<r> Hello Admiral,<br/> <br/> Just thought I'd say hello and let you know you haven't been talking to yourself. <E>:)</E> I'm just getting back in to wit-pae after awhile, and since I'm trying the Japanese side against the AI, reading a Japan player AAR might be a decent thought. So, not a whole lot...
