RE: Supply Unit not working

<t> The problem occurred when I rail moved Balbo to the Supply Unit, and there in the hex, he was allowed to expend the unit. The game showed him as being in supply, and thus he should have been at the very least, a secondary supply source, but he was not. Only he was in supply. The other units were...

RE: 2.1.0.3 Initiative

<t> How is this avoided? Or does it only affect NetPlay? I haven't encountered it, and until the next patch is out, I'd like to avoid the issue. I noted the advice above, but that looks to be what to try if it happens. I'd like to know if I can avoid it at all. I appreciate any input. Thanks!</t>

RE: Another Bug for the next patch!

Thanks for the fix. Perhaps there was a bug earlier - now fixed - that was forcing me to set CP to reorganize ships at sea, or maybe I just remember it wrong. Maybe it was an error with CWiF that I'm remembering. Nice to have that cleared up, too.

RE: Supply Unit not working

Got any other special situations you'd like to have checked out? I may not have a perfect understanding of the rules, but if you want something checked out, I can do that.

RE: Another Bug for the next patch!

<t> The game never used to allow that with the limited overseas supply option in effect. I have always - with MWiF - had to have a friendly CP in the zone to carry oil to my ships and their aircraft, to re-organize them at sea. I've always had to have that CP there to carry the oil, but I am always ...

Another Bug for the next patch!

<t> Simply put, I have noticed that when I return ships to port at the end of the turn, they are not becoming disorganized. I just put a large fleet back into Gibraltar - four or five CW carriers and at least that many cruisers - but none of that force showed up during the use oil phase, and the uni...

RE: Convoy System does not work

<t> Actually, the Battle of the Atlantic used to move more smoothly with the old Fifth Edition. Back then, all the Sub attacks and ASW was handled at the turn's end, and all one had to do was ensure that by turn's end, escorts were in place. Subs could attack a pipeline, "killing" resources and BP i...

RE: Supply Unit not working

<t> I just happen to have the auto-save from just before I moved that Italian HQ to the supply unit. The Supply unit is already in place, as are the other units. All you need to do is move that HQ to the supply, use the supply, and while the HQ does become "in supply", it's not becoming a "primary s...

Supply Unit not working

<t> In a previous Axis turn, I moved the Balboa HQ atop the supply source {in Iraq, at the end of the rail spur coming south out of Baghdad} and then expended the supply unit - which the rules claim I can do anytime as long as the Supply unit is organized [and the game lets me do this with a disorga...

RE: Ground Strike Selectively Unavailable

<t> There are no range or weather concerns. There is supply. I have an HQ there for them. Some are in supply range of Baku. The weather is clear, and has been [in the relevant zones] for all impulses through the entire March/April and May/Jun turns. The Soviet aircraft in question are available for ...

RE: Ground Strike Selectively Unavailable

<t> Just tried both saves I used, and as before, right after the CW strike phase, it went to the rail phase, skipping the Soviets, even though the a/c are available. And I've never asked to skip a ground strike phase - not even for the Chinese.<br/> <br/> Tried again, this time going back to the Dec...

RE: Ground Strike Selectively Unavailable

I'll try again, but when I posted, the USSR flag was greyed out, and after ending the CW phase, it went to the rail phase, not the Soviet strike phase. It may have been just a glitch. Yesterday I experienced the game shutting itself down during some of my reloads.

Ground Strike Selectively Unavailable

RE: reinstall issue

Another one that liked to vanish with some of the older editions. I had to re-insert that file several times.

I should note that it has been a long time since I had such an issue.

RE: Conquest of Faeroes

<t> My experience has been that control always changed automatically, and there'd be a message about the US "conquering" Iceland and Greenland. It works the same as when the Japanese get to occupy French Indochina and Madagascar - the territory becomes the property of Japan. Likewise, when the optio...
