They definitely can engage missiles, it just doesn't show in the logs if they miss, as with normal anti-aircraft fire.

It is fitting the 1st post be about armor, there was a lot of it in the old forums. Lot of it is still actual, so you may want to take a look there. I'll link only one thread since it has a graphic or the armor distribution.

Playing as Germany in 1929, I have no ship based aircraft but plenty of land based. However, I have never been able to launch an airstrike - the button is always greyed out :( . Can anyone suggest an reason for this, please? (I'd like to attach a save game, but I can't work out which file type to ...

How about three different options? Disable aircraft and missiles, disable aircraft (only), and disable missiles (only).


I had some other ones too, so this may end up being a large number of switches
For RTW2 I had
1. Weaker Aircraft(no Aerial Torpedoes, AP Bombs, or bombentorpedo, which was the ...

Overall I'm really enjoying this game. It's a good step forward from RTW2.

And mentioning RTW2 brings me to a few of points.
First: I'm sure that in RTW2 a ship would receive an O in parenthesis when it had become obsolete and was due a rebuild. That doesn't seem to happen in RTW3. I'm rebuildng ...

Can you screenshot it?

I'm trying to decide whether to purchase or not. The aviation part is not what interests me. I know there is a Slow aircraft development button but eventually they will be in the game. Reading the manual, I see that there is an Auto select strike button. Does that work sufficiently? If I used this ...

A final pre-release post
As we wait in the final ~7 hours before release, wanted to give you guys something to read while we wait. Post-release I'll keep updating this in the next few weeks, but probably at a slightly lower pace(bi-weekly?). Might even stream some missile age battles when I get ...

[snip]
Unfortunately only made it up to radar level 3, as I didn't want to refit in the (friendly) USA who has level 4, but lacks my anti-aircraft technology.


Radar needs a refit now?

EDIT: Also, you bought (were loaned?) Spanish destroyers?


Radar in RTW3(Honestly can't remember how much ...

To Missile Cruisers
Over the winter and spring of 47', a lower intensity of warfare was observed across the seas around Europe as the Italian and German navies accepted that the French now had control of the sea. An Italian light cruiser was sunk in January by AM-46s and torpedoes from French land ...

Texel Turkey Shoot
19 November, 1946
After almost a year and a half of fierce fighting, Amiral Morier is exhausted. As the French Atlantic Fleet heads into the North Sea yet again, they hope to break the bloody stalemate that has fallen over Europe. The Axis is certainly getting the worst of the ...

Clash of the cruiser screens
27 September, 1945
Amiral Touchard aboard the carrier Foch was leading a force of 8 carriers on a raid in the north sea. At 05:00 the fleet was 30 miles West of the Norwegian coast, heading south. Amiral Robin, an experienced cruiser commander of the last war, lead a ...

I'm a bit disappointed to see the battle AI is just as dumb as it was before. Especially this war with the British. Wow they just totally sucked lol.

Not too big of a deal, still very interested in the game and this AAR


With the war with the British I think they performed tactically quite ...

Opening actions
14 July 1945, in response to Italian aggression at the border, a French cruiser squadron attacks an Italian force near Nice, managing to sink the destroyer Cassiopea , but an Italian land based bomber manages to score a near miss on D'Estrees , severely damaging her propellers and ...

Don't worry, on land you will win this war!

UK can't land forces in Normandy and the Maginot line will stop the Germans flat and Spain will easily storm Gibraltar. :ugeek:

L'AUDACE, ENCORE DE L'AUDACE, ET TOUJOURS DE L'AUDACE!

Arms Race
The decisive turn in the Franco-British war of 1939 kicked off a massive international naval race until the present(1945), as navies around the world adjusted to the new anti-ship abilities of air power. Compared to their 1930s loadouts, by 1945 many French warships are carrying twice as ...

Midway in the Channel
In September 1939, another skirmish was fought between the opposing fleets, a lone French torpedo bomber flying off Marseillaise managed to slip through British defenses and hit Ramillies ' sister and class namesake, Empress of India . The old TPS failed to stop any of the ...

Cold War Hot War
At the end of May, 1939, the tensions between Britain and France flared into war. Having already mobilized their heavy units, the Marine Nationale's Force de Raid was stationed in Brest, ready to break the expected British blockade, which never arrived. Wary of the new ...

Status of the Fleet, September 1938
Following the second defeat of Italy, the Mediterranean settled into a fairly quiet piece. For the next 6 years, the Marine Nationale was able to focus on building up its forces, as worldwide developments indicated a rapidly changing balance of sea power- the ...

I love the way you detail and explain the battles. It makes them very engaging and a joy to follow. Great AAR

I think luck in battles can have a very important influence on the end result (tell Bismarck and that lucky hit on his rudder, or at Midway, the American dive bombers falling on the ...
