Re: Quick Questions Thread

Do you know of any PBEM games that would be as complex and deep as WITE, but would cover a different time period? For example, the Napoleonic Wars or the Cold War. Try this THE WARGAMING CLUB (TWC) is a Play by Email(PBeM) & Real Time Strategy Wargaming Group. https://thewargamingclub.com/ BTW ...

Re: Good game but...

So in short, everyone wants "historical accuracy," but nobody is playing these games to replicate history. +1 Agree! Each player wants "historical accuracy," and wants to perform better than it was in real history. I think WITE2 would be well balanced if it was as difficult for ...

1. I wish this friendly community have fun and further development for this great game. 2. I've been reading this forum almost every day since I bought this game on the second day after its release. And I am grateful to Loki for his help in learning the game. Loki your posts are always informative a...

RE: Struggling with this Game

<t> I can't point UI as the strength of this game. <br/> However, it doesn't matter how complex it is. In comparison with the large amount of knowledge that needs to be mastered here, this is an absolute trifle! <br/> While you are studying this complex game, UI becomes absolutely familiar as icons ...

RE: Difficulty settings?

<t> This weekend I finished the Road To Leningrad as a Soviet player against AI. <br/> I played half of the game on v1.00.00, then I took a break and play the rest on v1.02.11. <br/> With zero experience, after reading only 30% of the manual, I got a Soviet major victory. <br/> Basically, I played a...

<t> Joel, thank you very much for such a detailed answer!<br/> For me, it really costs more than 2 cents[:)]. <br/> I will do so, keeping in mind a possible boost of German`s morale up to 110.

<t> Yes, I am AGEod fan[:)], but I find the Grigsby`s WitP-WITX series the best that covers WW2. <br/> Thank you for invitation to PBEM, but I always play solo (myself for all factions).

RE: Difficulty settings?

<t> There is another question. <br/> What are the difficulty settings should be in a human-vs-human game against an equal opponent (theoretically!) so that the game continues until the end of 1944-1945, and does not end in 1942-1943 with Soviets victory. <br/> Are there any practical statistics duri...
