Torpedo Attacks Not Well Modeled by System

Once you get into the late 1920's destroyers are 1500 tons or larger and torpedoes are reasonably large and fast with center-line launchers of 3 & 4 tubes. The whole ...

Re: Does the game hate me or the French?

Evan- thanks for your thoughtful replies. Much appreciated. I decided to try the Germans from 1900 and I am enjoying a bigger budget and better technology. We’ll see if that produces a more playable and enjoyable gaming experience. The destroyer I served on was the apex of World War II technology ...

Does the game hate me or the French?

I've been learning RTW3 for the last few months and followed early advice that France was a good learner's experience- not too large or complex.

After several years concentrating on War in the West I decided to give WIPAE a try and am just learning the very basics. Have a bit of an advantage in 4 years USN sea duty on minesweepers and destroyers [long ago]. In looking at damage to vessels, regarding CVs, the thing I most want to know is if ...

Transport largest HQ's?

I've been playing WITW for about a year and have lots of questions but I'll start with something simple. In playing the full 43-45 scenario I find the largest HQ's [SHAEF in ETO for example] are too big to ship from any port in UK to France [same problem with largest HQ in North Africa]. Is there a ...
