<r>G'Day all..<br/>
With this game Tamas and I are playing, which is a hybrid possum one, which I must say is unhistorical, with it's massive red air force, red army tank corps and very powerful soviet mechanised cav divs etc, and all of this in 1941, along with low german production, poor luftwaffe ...

<t>Hmmm.. Interesting points covered so far..<br/>
<br/>
But I still advocate, as previously stated on this thread, for a simpler solution based largely on entrenchment values.<br/>
<br/>
A quick re-run if I may.. If the axis opponent ceases offensive operations at say mid October 1941, and ...

<t>G'Day Possum..<br/>
I am currently playing your scenario, and thanks for the work you have put into it, but my view is that it is flawed..<br/>
1] Axis air power is non existant, or should I say, soviet air power is way over the top in terms of numbers and experience. In essence the soviet player ...

First, it is an historical fact that the Germans weren't ready for winter, and not just because they didn't stop and dig in. They weren't ready because they didn't plan for it to ...

Interesting discussions todate, but could we be loosing the plot a wee bit with this issue, by advocating complicated fixes for this bug, thereby making it more complicated than it needs to be, and thus introduce even more bugs ??..<br/>
<br/>
One of the reasons I started this ...

<t>Thanks RickyB for the detailed reply, I agree in principle with your proposal, but I also believe that the entrenchment value should be included in the equasion some how, as this very important aspect of defence is quite often overlooked..<br/>
<br/>
Axis units that have ceased attacking will ...

<t>G'Day Ed, I have a save game for this, where I setup my units for defence, including some special supply, executed the combat phase, and then I emailed the zipped files to my opponent, as we always do, and where-upon during his turn the mass extinction of das heer took place.. Will email the zip ...

<t>I am currently playing a game as the axis side, using possum's scenario, which I must say in terms of air power is extremely unbalanced, and I basically reached the objectives I had set for 1941 by early October, and so went onto the defensive, just as the rains started, and dug in.<br/>

In ...

<r>I served nine years in the Royal Australian Navy from 1972 to 1981 being a Marine Technican in Propulsion (ie.. an engine room artificer), having done my apprenticeship through the RAN. I paid off form the service as a Petty Officer (equivalent to a seargent), and enjoyed my time in the grey ...

<t>A great job Mist with the revised 1941 scenario... A question if I may, myself and a fellow Australian wish to play this as a full length campaign, but on reading your readme file it states that it has been set for 26 turns, can this be also played as a full length campaign going all the way to ...

<t>What happened to the jokes !! Why is this thread taking a nose dive at an ever increasing rate of knots ?? Last I heard Australia and America were still friends, and so, has some diabolical event happened to change that ??<br/>
<br/>
As an Australian of many generations (and proud of it) we are a ...

<t>G'Day all.. Hmmm an interesting thread, and the jokes are good <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> For me though my exposure to the US navy is a memorable one, with one experience of many during my nine years of service with the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), was the week+ I spent onboard the USS ...

<t>I have windows 2000 pro, and the game runs fine in starting up and loading a scenario etc, and right through to finishing my turn, and then towards the end of the A/I's turn it just suddenly returns me right back to windows, for no apparent reason and with no error message.. I'm pulling my hair ...

Please can anyone tell me how to get WiR 3.101 to run under Windows 2000 pro... I'm tearing my hair out.. It keeps erroring out on "The NTVDM CPU has encountered an Illegal instruction" can anyone help me please ?? Thanks ...Shane

<t>I purchased the game week before last, and have tried a few scenarios, along with trying to create a new scenario based on scenario 51 using the scenario editor.<br/>
<br/>
First impressions are that it is probably not of merchantable quality at this stage, and should have been held back to ...

<t>Hmmm... Suppose I'II add my statistics to this thread... born in 1956, I am what we call here in Australia a baby boomer, ie.. part of the generation of massive baby births that occured in this country around this time.. Joined the Royal Australian Navy for nine years, where I first became ...

<t>Hmmm, an interesting topic, but I will attempt to keep my reply to an economy of words, providing in depth details to back up my views if so required...<br/>
<br/>
My view after reading and studying many books etc (like many in this forum topic) is that the German general staff (OKH) and Hitler ...

Ed, could'nt download it as it's not there to be downloaded, please supply alternate location thanks ...Shane

<t>The PBEM is still non functional, as I have discovered that in a game saved under PBEM, that I am playing, that whilst deploying the soviet forces, and then saving the game, to leave it for a while, and then, on coming back and loading it up, all my moved armies have had the readiness<br/>
