This is good to know, I'll have to experiment with midget operations on the offensive. Do you know how I might use midget subs in a defensive context?


That's pretty straightforward. If your port has midget subs stationed there, click on form a task force and pick "Midget Submarine" for ...

It's been a while since I played the Empire. but I seem to recall that once the laden mother sub entered the port hex you wanted to attack, the midget would depart and make its attempt early in the sequence of play. If the midget was lucky, you'll actually see the animation of the midget sub ...

The answer too your entrenchment question is yes.

Entrenchments can go upto 9,(6 in atolls) and help defend any military target in the hex. The large forts are difficult to destroy and use huge amounts of supply and time building. The only way I know to destory any fort is via engineers on the ...

So, it looks like the only way you could load a midget in the Aleutian scenario would be to sail the Japanese sub I-24 from Paramushiro in the Kurile Islands to Kiska Island in the Aleutians and then load one of the midget subs stationed there.

Thanks for the help all, just wanted to give a post-mortem since the problem's been solved (for now). This problem occurred even with nothing selected, just the plain map. What I noticed was that this error would only happen while other tasks were in effect - specifically, having Youtube on a second ...

I am not sure if it is the problem, buy you have the switch -w which is for windowed mode and then the switch -fd which is for full screen mode and daily saves. You need to take one of them out.


Good catch! I took out -fd, but unfortunately it seems to be having the same problem. Still, it's ...

Hey all, I'm glad to finally make a post here after months of reading. I just wish it wasn't for the issue of performance problems. I'm a wee bit lost on how to fix this, so I'd appreciate anything by way of suggestions.

Essentially, my game keeps crashing and I'm not sure why. It seems to happen ...
