Hi Joel, that's the correct game, yes!

The last turn should have been by Veterin, on May 19th, so that's correct. I assume the July 4th is by the support team restoring the game. I will continue working with them to see if they can do anything to get it working again. Thanks!

A server game was ended by my opponent (my fault though), and after discussing with my opponent we asked Matrix tech support to restore the game, and happily they were able to.

With the restored game, now I can't save to the server. The "uploading game" progress bar gets halfway and resets to the ...

Given the longer term I don't think you can sustain a 7 day/week allocation. The Soviets start with a lot of recon but even being careful it gets very short come mid-42 and you usually only have 2 air groups/front come 1943.

So this sort of real commitment is probably not sustainable and only ...

I bought on release and switched to the Steam version a while back.

Today I installed a new drive and moved a bunch of games and got some extra Steam notifications as a result. One was for WitE2, when I opened it: "Steam Cloud save {3 days ago}, local save {today}".

That got me thinking, what's ...

There's zero Axis aircraft listed as air losses in the current turn's logistic phase (the one with all zeroes). I didn't view last turn's (the one with 400% damage) air losses in that level of detail though.

I noticed this in my server game as well, noted the air group, and checked again the next turn. They were all fully repaired.

Turn 13


Turn 14

This rule was added in version 1.02.06:

• New rule - A mission generated by a ground attack air directive that is performing an attack on a unit has a chance of having the mission converted to an interdiction attack. The chance of switching to interdiction increases with the number of movement ...

I've created Ground Attack air directives targeting hexes with enemy units, with mission priority set to High for Unit, and to None for all other missions. I'm trying to cause ground element damage and disruption to help with planned ground combats in this turn.

The combat results for these show ...

What experience/skill level are you looking for?

I find that the double rail line along the north bank of the Dvina is easier to get going early than the rail through Minsk. Might just be how I structure my attack, though. I have yet to be persuaded that Leningrad's 36 points are worth fighting for.

So, why don't sending these panzers in Balkan or Western TB? <br/>
If you don't use them in blizzard, it could be interesting gaining AP and VP this way.<br/>

<t> Don't worry, the shipping companies would find a way to damage it in a box, too. I used to work in the parts department of a BMW dealership in Arizona. Sometimes we'd have to get parts rush shipped via Fedex from Germany. I'd say a solid 10% of those parts arrived damaged - and BMW does not ...

Oh, I've been reading the various AARs on the forums and the many topics in the war room. But I don't think I've seen a post yet trying to figure out the 'maximum' distance between your main functioning depot and your forces to keep truck ...

Can support units be committed from a higher-level HQ (i.e. German 11th Army) to subordinates of a lower-level HQ (i.e. German 11th Army, XI Corps) if it is within 5 hexes of the combat?

<t> The Soviets getting more MP than should be possible for a Soviet motorized unit in 1941 just seems like a rules oversight. Motorized rifle divisions should have the same limited MP as mechanized divisions. <br/>

But other than that... I'd be hesitant to call for a change until players ...

There is another way to preserve CPP, especially on turn 1 as the Axis. If you find yourself facing Soviet units you can just brush aside (like those static MG units or NKVD border forces), split up a division into regiments and attack with ...

<t> On turns 1 and 2 I like to use them to attack the Soviet border fortification units to save infantry division MPs and CPPs.<br/>

If it's a vital hex that you want to move through you'll want to do a deliberate attack; in a hasty attack, a security division that rolls poorly can fail to ...

<r> It's probably true for all aircraft because ops losses increase with miles flown, but I've found it most noticeable with fighters and the Ju-87s. The AI likes to give drop tanks to Ju-88s on Auto loadout sometimes, and I haven't felt the need to mess with them. I set manual loadouts for bombers ...
