Re: Air War?

Quick question - what defines a successful intercept?

My notion of the rules is that if you have 5 or greater strength fighter you get 1 (or 2 intercepts if you have Aerial warfare). But the fighter unit takes damage (and of course can cause damage).

Should the measure be what are the total points ...

Re: Things you WISHED you knew in your first game...


Wish I knew that only one major power needs to research Intelligence


Is this really true? Majors share, but not as high a level as intelligence and the Soviet's don't share with either the US or Britain. So while this advice might be okay advice for most majors, it certainly doesn't apply to ...

How do I download the Community Pack for SC WWII in Europe?

Hi. I've been poking around on the site and the forum for how to download the community back for SC WiE and have not been able to figure out how to do it. I have the keys for SC WiE and in fact many years ago played the "Fall Weiss" variant. Just not sure how to proceed to download the most recent ...

Re: Terrain info box covers left hand corner

Dear Taxman:

Thanks for that! Also, when I changed from my big monitor (2400p) to my laptop monitor (1080p), it changed the layout sufficiently to allow me to select my ships I couldn't select on the bigger monitor.

F4 though is the better way to go.

Re: Terrain info box covers left hand corner

Thanks a ton Taxman! That is it exactly.

How do I turn the interface off?

P.S. - I agree completely it is cheesy, but the Axis player did it so -- I have to respond somehow.

Terrain info box covers left hand corner

There is an annoying problem in the left hand corner of the screen/map where the terrain information makes it impossible to select units near the British colony port. Two German units are attempting to blockade the port and I cannot attack them. It seems the terrain info masks the units underneath ...

Axis Strategy in North Africa

I've been racking my brains over this for some time and have yet to figure out the right balance an Axis player should have in terms of a North African campaign and the invasion of the Soviet Union.

Against AI, the Axis can have both a robust Barbarossa and a winning strategy in the ME. To wit ...

Cannot Login to PBEM++

This morning the connection to PBEM server looks like it times out and says that name and password do not match. Even if I enter the password, the 'login' button remains greyed out and cannot be pushed.

I haven't changed my password in years so I am uncertain of how I came to this state.

Any ideas ...

Opponent Having Trouble With Turn

Hi. My opponent was away for about 1 month and now when he returned he is having trouble loading his game. He reports it says "Missing a File?" I'm not looking at his error so I am not exactly sure of the exact circumstances.

Any ideas/advice on next steps?
