Unfortunately the answer to the first four questions is a big no.<br/>

It is realistic to have the Stug's substitute but then when the real ...

<t>(My appologies if this is an old question being repeated)<br/>
<br/>
I notice that when there is a shortage of german medium tanks Stug III's will be substituted by the game. (This is over and above the third bn being reorganized as SPAT bn.)<br/>
1) If the number of tanks available becomes ...

Just last year using the original version and playing the 43 Campaign game as the Germans I set one a/c factory to ME262's. It went into production January 44.

I agree late war fighters could carry out ground attacks, but early war fighters couldn't because the planes weren't designed to carry bombs and such, or extra ammo for that matter.<br/>

<B><s>[b]</s>yes, pure fighters can execute these missions only when escorting bombers. This is a design choice. <br/>

Their load and cannon (anti-tank) values are not useless. They use them when escorting (general strafing), and also ...

[/B]We had a discussion about this months ago in the playtesting group, and all thought it should be allowed, as the manual said it was. It has been a long time, but I think what is going on is that fighters may contribute to these attacks ...

<t>Better late then never I suppose.<br/>
<br/>
I have tried regulary to get a fighter unit to execute one of these attacks and they don't. The mission can be assigned but when the attack is made nothing happens.<br/>
<br/>
What is the point in the fighters having Load values if they can't use them ...

<r>The description in the rule book establishes a fair expectation. It invites the player to gamble or improve the security on the other fronts with the knowledge that ultimately the fronts fail. The expectation is fair because this is a game with Ultra a given. See Sir Hinsley's lecture. via <URL ...

The effectiveness of air power is actually a current ongoing discussion on the mailing list. The problem is it was too powerfull in the original game. It is going to be looked at again. Finding the right balance for ...

A couple of improvements that may or may not have already been considered <br/>
1) Moving weather fronts <br/>
<br/>
2) Simultaneous movement/combat. <br/>
<br/>
3) A choice of attack or defence stance would be ...

<br/>
I've had lots of problems with my computer lately and decided to format c: and install win2000. Unfortunately i cannot run either WiR or Pacific War because of memory problems. I'm not that very good at OS ...

<t>I was very happy to have discovered the reissue of WIR and all the folks that are interested in it. Like many others the reissue has got me thinking of my wish list. I can't help but share it with you in the hopes that I can stir up some interest in it. Please notice below a summary of the idea ...
