RE: CEAW - What you think of it poll

I give it a 1. I'm a sucker for games like this -- easy to place, nice graphics, and good gameplay.

I'll give it a 1+ if it continues improvements via a patch!

RE: Looks like the Patch is out - first impressions?

<t> Your reply has nothing to do with what I'm asking. Basically it's difficult playing there simply because it's hard to select units and the hexes are hard to see.<br/>

I'm asking, is there a way to get more functionality out of what's there already?<br/>

RE: Europe at War - great game, if it had AI

<t> I have to say, you will never find an AI any "good" at wargames -- at least this current decade. Maybe in the future our AI opponents will become a HAL 2000 and be able to distribute electric shocks to us when they win, but for now the only games a computer can win are at chess, with its ...
