<r>HOI's research option is thrilling though! Best I've ever seen in any game. The AI isn't very good though, but if you play a multiplayer game, then it's another case.<br/>

It's also essential to install the patches, the first 2 improved the game a lot and Paradox is usually very quick and ...

<r>I'll try to be more specific:<br/>
<br/>
Couldn't find the combat report, but I mean that one of the subs first torpedoed the ship and then engaged with its gun.<br/>
(Isn't this possible?) If not, the ship must have been torpedoed on the turn before and then engaged on the surface.<br/>

Suicide surface attacks by sub....

<t>Over the last 14 days my Japanese subs have attacked allied AP and AK's on the surface. This has led to disastrous results! One sub damaged and retreating to Truk for withdrawal and one sub sunk!! The last took multiple 3in and 40mm hits from an AP.<br/>
<br/>
The subs had torpedoes left and had ...

<t>I think that fortified cities can help slow down an attacker, e.g the Russias in 44 on their way to Berlin.<br/>
In reality it was lack of supplies that stopped the Russians, first at the gates of Warzaw and then in front of Berlin.<br/>

Supply level in surrounded cities.....

<t>I think that cities with a garrison should keep a certain amount of supply after they have been cut of.<br/>
It's impossible to declare a city a 'fortress' since it will surrender in no time after its supply has been reduced to 0.<br/>
<br/>
Take a historical scenario: Breslau held out for months ...

Because I want to try the 44 campaign with a human opponent.

Flying mine spotters....

It's really genious that strike planes spot the mine fields :D
...not that genious for the defender though.

Is it impossible to fix this most annoying bug?
