Re: War in Spain 1936-39 : Dev Diary #1

Hi,

Thanks for the book suggestions! - Hugh Thomas "The Spanish Civil War" is in my 'basket'.

I suppose my next question would be - militarily, or at least for players of either side of this game, is the SCW an even contest?

I'm thinking of WITPAE or GGWE2 where the results are almost forgone. i ...

Re: War in Spain 1936-39 : Dev Diary #1

Really enjoyed this Dev Diary.
I know very little about the Spanish Civil War so getting a small introduction was great.

Excuse my lack of knowledge but was the war evenly balanced? -Or was one side always most likely to win?

Re: War In Spain !

I'd love to see some video's of the game being played - or mechanics being explained.

Are any planned before release?

Re: enemy casualty in campaign

Is the 'infinite enemy' for a campaign likely to change?

One thing I like to do when playing campaigns, such as Red Storm Rising, is to focus on the enemies key kit and equipment.

For example if I can degrade his AA units I can bring in more air support, or if I degrade his infantry, woodblocks ...

Hi Cardolam,

I did notice this thread which seems to bear some resemblance to your question - hope it helps;

Re: Graphics Glitch

I'm also having this exact same problem.
For me it occurs when I minimize the game - for example when im trying to check something in the manual or read the forum for advice.
The only way I can get rid of it is to completely restart the game. Which is a bummer if your halfway through planning your ...

Hey,

Really love this dev diary, especially as it delves into doctrine and some of the details, which any war game worth its salt should.

Now I'm not particularly savvy when it comes to doctrine etc but I wanted to check a few things, because getting the enemy AI correct or at least as plausible ...

Re: Rule the Waves 3 Manual Previews

Hi Erik,

Currently reading what I assume is the latest version of the manual from Steam - downloaded it yesterday.
One thing I have noticed is that the words Armour and Armor are used. Not a massive issue unless you are using the search function.
