RE: No control over Amphibious Embark Locations. Why?

That would be a welcome adjustment. I'll admit to having been screwed up by that on several occasions.

RE: 1939 Storm over Europe

<r> I'm sorry for the necro, but I have to agree; I was going to pick this up during the Steam summer sale, it's been on my wishlist forever. But in all honesty, I only wanted it for the WWII scenario. I would have bought the game and been really disappointed, I'm glad I saw this thread.<br/>

I hear you - I've stayed up all night and I am wearing out the mouse clicking refresh and posting a million posts on the steam discussion forum for it to pass the time with a couple others that are twitching... :D

RE: EA (Europe Aflame 39-45) questions

Also - please note that I posted without proofreading and some of it was incomeplete, not clear, etc. Please have a peek at it now as some points weren't correct without the missing word etc.

Hope that helps JJ - let me know if any of it was unclear!

RE: 653N Mod

<t> I have a quick question about forcing weekly turns - can't that seriously mess with the game balance? Or do they scale down the MPPs proportionately or something? I too would like to see a few mod/map options where we get 52 turns per year, but you can't just change that in a scenario that has ...

RE: Strategic Command v1.03.04 Beta available

I'd just like to second the weather request. I switch my resolution from 1920 * 1080 to 1280 * 720 when I play so I can get the zoom-in detail I want. (I can't zoom out the way I want now, but it is a better compromise).

RE: German navy, including subs, is worthless

<t> Put all French Med & Colonial forces to 'frozen' until the Axis are within 3 hexes of Paris. (I've been gaming WWII since the 70s and have seen that type of rule in several games). If that isn't possible via normal game mechanics, it could be finagled as a scripted event. <br/>

RE: What is the Red DOT on Sub Mean??

Not a deal-breaker, but I must admit that it is counterintuitive. Red should be for hunting. (Red alert, condition red, etc).

You can change the amount of MPPs you send them on the convoy screen!

RE: British Defeat

<t> I don't think that a "full surrender" ala France was even possible. Suppose the UK is completely under Axis control and Churchill orders complete unconditional surrender. Do the Canadians simply mothball the soon-to-be 3rd largest navy in the world, stop producing war materiel* and paint ...
