RE: Moving airforce across the Atlantic?

you ship them, just like a land unit, if the air unit is next to a port click the button and they are loaded onto transports. Don't forget to provide a escort, you don't want to lose those precious planes.

RE: Strategy Thread - BTR

<t> Oh, fun, a Sealion row!<br/> &nbsp;<br/> Just to make things harder for the germans the Brits were reading and decoding Luftwaffe messages by summer 1940 and there is every possibility that they would be aware of the time and place of the invasion. So the germans would to their surprise find...

RE: Is Op Sealion Possible?

<t> It might sound crazy but why is London the UK's 'capital'? Taking the city has no political consequences but why should it have supply/replacement advantages for the axis? The major industrial strength of the country lies in the midlands and north, not the south east. London is not even a partic...

RE: Is Op Sealion Possible?

<t> How do you clear Bristol? The luftwaffe won't do it and anyway you are telegraphing your intention by moving invading units next to the coast. Brit player rails in reserves and zaps your units as they land. without a ship they will be out of supply.&nbsp;I am talking about playing ahuman opp...

RE: Is Op Sealion Possible?

<t> Doing a successful Sealion on the UK was almost impossible!.<br/> In the game you do get several advantages as the germans as you can ship as many corps to england as you want, for free without ruining the economy in the process. Of course a Sealion strategy will need more surface ships, that si...

RE: Balancing France?

<t> Problem is you could argue that the historical France was not the most realistic France!<br/> &nbsp;<br/> If you re-fought the summer 40 campaign lots of times the historical quick defeat IMO will not occur all that often with a drawn out campaign the most likely outcome. The german might st...

RE: Oil Bug

<t> I would guess that few games get to the situation where Bucharest falls and triggers the bug. Most likely the axis have crushed the russians so it is game over. Or the russians have crushed the germans so it is game over Or the western allies have crushed the non-existant axis defence in France ...

RE: Placing units from the force pool

The developers are aware of this problem so I hope the fix might be in the next patch. if you wait a turn there might be a unit on which you can deploy the commander?

Russian surrender

<t> I notice if russia surrenders any on-map russian convoy just dissappears!. New convoys are marked UK<br/> <br/> Of course in reality that convoy would not just scupper itself so we need to have it change to UK. This should be possible as French forces in Syria become british on the fall of Franc...

I thought the variable entry thing was only for USA and USSR. Even then i can't see what variability you could give the USA?

RE: England's Capitals

The germans will have to capture each UK city to stop it producing, but once you own it there is no need for a garrison. I presume partisans will keep appearing until you occupy Ottawa.
