I assumed you are Armenian based on your name. Best Armenian general in game is Ivan (Hovhannes) Bagramyan. He actually has very good stats too.

<t> No those were honest victories vs regular German infantry. I don't micromanage my leaders as much as some other players do, and I also love to role play with them, I put a guy in charge because I love his name or his face or his personal history. I have sweet spot for weird looking guys or ...

Hmm, suggest to Pavel to take a look in this thread. If it's intended that fort units don't provide benefits while their TOE is not fully ready, then fine. If it's not intended, then I can provide a savefile for Pavel.

Joel some of my forts have *Refit status, the asterisk (*) probably indicating they are not combat ready until their TOE fills up. Could the lack of combat readiness (indicated by *) mean they are not radiating the fort building benefits to the units in their hex and adjacent hexes?

I think what the rule is trying to say is that you have a hex with a fort unit, that specific hex can reach as high as level 4, and all hexes adjacent to it can reach as high as level 3. If you place a fort unit on every other hex, then ...

<t> I also have as problem with this rule:<br/>
<br/>
"Requirement to build up to Fort Level 4 - Must have a fort unit in the hex. Once built, the fort unit is not needed to keep the level 4 fort." and this: "Requirement to build up to Fort Level 3 - Must be adjacent to an enemy hex, be an urban ...

I will confirm that HQs and Airbases work great. I prefer Fort Zones if you have the APs, because that's fewer guys outside. But I didn't have enough APs.<br/>

<t> Fort decay is pretty brutal in 1.05. Questions:<br/>
<br/>
- Level 2 or 3 fort decays right back to zero, or gradually down to level 2, then 1 then 0?<br/>
<br/>
- In order to stop fort decay, the location has to be occupied. Can it be occupied by any unit, including HQa and airbases or it ...

Overall, I assess it disturbs the Axis much more though.

That's because people stop playing to soon. In 43 and later variable weather disturbs Soviets more.

<t> I think the majority prefers pre-set weather. I hate it, because you know exactly which turn any of the very important, crippling events will happen. You should not know that. Basically I see random weather as the ONLY way of making the weather model less terrible than it is, ie marginally more ...

<t> So it's not really blizzard that froze poorly clad Germans to death reducing their combat value, it was when they saw Dec 41 on the calendar? [:D]<br/>
<br/>
I mean weather model is funny as it is, but it does not make much sense to see German units fully combat ready during November blizzards ...

<t> I prefer random weather in my games, because it makes things more interesting and less predictable.<br/>
<br/>
In one of my games blizzard came to one weather zone in turn 24, in November 41, ie one turn earlier than it usually occurs.<br/>
<br/>
However, there were no blizzard effects (CV ...

<t> I started a PBEM as Axis (feels strange for a Sov fanboy like me). <br/>
<br/>
As Soviets I keep all units on refit most of the time. So, how many units should or could I keep on refit in early stages of Barbarossa as German and expect to reasonably be filled up with new stuff? Should I keep ...

You got some insane CV values for 41 Sovs, even in blizz.

I probably don't have to tell you, since you played a few games as Axis, but this game is.... well, it's game over for the Axis. Reminds me of two games I had with ACR, he simply didn't do enough while he could.

I for one like the increased impact of interdiction missions as it adds an additonal layer of uncertainty during a player's move. It has on more than one occasion kept a unit from attacking or reaching it's intended defensive ...

Richard see the downward arrow, in fact the letter V? [v]

Click on it and the list of participating units will continue. He had more units than what you see, I presume at least 2 more divisions.
