Save file location change

Is it possible to save a WiE2 game file directly from the program to a folder on the cloud (ie, not by copying it from its "usual" local folder)? If so how?
Thanks.

Multiplayer Server gameplay and features

I noticed the latest update had several changes to Multiplayer Network play. Is there a description somewhere on how Multiplayer Server gameplay works (not PBEM) or could someone in the know describe it? The manual does not describe it at the gameplay/feature level, just as a capability without much ...

Online >2 Multiplayer support status

Hi. Im doing a "recon" assessment on this game to see if itll work for a group of ~6 experienced gamers who gamed together in the past. In the manual in section 2.8 4, "Intended Changes", there is mention that online multiplayer will support up to 4 players. The language is a bit squishy so I have ...

Re: Auto RR repair and Lock HQ bugs

Thanks for for responding and specifically thanks to DekeFentle for the screenshots and tip you provided about Locking HQs in the command screen instead off the Game option screen. Using the Comand screen to Lock HQs in T1 (after assigning the OTs/RADs where I wanted), all but one of the seven OT ...

Auto RR repair and Lock HQ bugs

Unfortunately, even complying with the no-more-than-five-hexes-to-a-railhead criteria (I was like 2 hexes away), auto RR repair using OT/RAD SUs doesn't work in my "Typhoon" test run (no stacking conflicts either: I left the rail hexes completely unoccupied except the Corp HQ with the OT/RAD units ...

RR Repair units bug, Lock HQ bug

Unfortunately, even complying with the no-more-than five-hexes-to-a-railhead criteria (I had like 2 hexes), auto RR repair doesn't work in my test run (no stacking conflicts either: I left the rail hexes completely unoccupied except the Corp HQ with the OT/RAD units attached). The suggested Lock HQ ...

Re: Newb Questions

Thanks Beethoven! Sadly, locking the HQ prior to reassignment (and leaving it that way) did not work. Most of the OT/RADs, and the *only* ones that deployed to repair (nonsensically as usual), automatically reattached from Corps HQs to an Armee/Pz Gruppe. Both Corps were within 5 hexes of the target ...

Newb Questions

Experienced gamer, but new to this game. I have a few questions I haven't been able to answer looking through the manual and this board.
1) Can a player review the calculation for CV of his own units? There are lots of variables and when CVs go up or down it would be good to review what variables ...

Re: Living Manual

New to this game, not new to monster wargames (War in Europe, etc). Currently wading through this games very, very nice but voluminous manual. Am I to understand that I also need to read 1 to N "living manuals" in order to be fully up to date on rules? I mean, how significant are the adds and fixes?

Re: New to the game - Basic Questions

Played this as a board game extensively in the late 80s thru the mid 90s (alas, career, marriage, kids....). Our group of 6 players has long since moved miles apart. Considering this game..... as empty-nest OGs we all now have more time. Can someone point me to a detailed description of how online ...
