Extra campaigns are a lot of work and most people just play the main one, so it felt best to concentrate on that, and possibly create some others at a later date - particularly as we have also been collecting feedback as to what potential campaigns people might want to see if we are to produce a DL...

<t> Wolfpack is a bit deeper than the sub rules in Midway. If you look in the manual that's on the game's webpage, you'll see a section on Enhanced Submarine Rules (page 43). There's a whole bunch of important stuff in there, including submarine batteries, inhibiting fire and periscopes and special ...

Just wanted to let people know that I'll be putting an AAR up over at Grogheads. It'll take a bit, I'm kinda busy, heh.

Game just came out this evening, so a bit early to find videos and the like.

That's what I kind of figured, but I wanted to be sure. Thank you very much.

<t> Can you go from Afrika Korps into the 42-43W DLC with the core units from AK? Or are they two different things? (I know you can import from your '41 DLC)<br/> <br/> I have a friend trying to decide what to use with a Gift Certificate, and I couldn't answer the question (as I'm slowly working thr...

I just got this error in trying to reinstall the game and patch. What does anyone know about it? (and, I'm not real happy with the idea of having to mess with my reg files) Will the game work still?

There's also a Korea game in the HPS Squad Battles series, so if tactical is your thing, that's a possibility.

<t> Honestly... whether the Ubi problems were Hackers or more benign system side issues, that's immaterial. The simple fact is that those problems directly kept legitimate customers from playing the games while the servers were down.<br/> <br/> It doesn't make difference if it was external malice, o...

<t> I'd want to give a fair bit of thought to all of this. Of course, one truism is that not all gamers are created equal. Someone who lives for a player vs player online FPS has a very different view of "risk vs reward" than someone who is playing SimCity after all. <br/> <br/> An interesting idea ...

Geeeeezzz..... [&o]


"Hey, Dad, I got assigned to floatplanes!"

"Well Son, I guess you'll have the easy work all war long, don't let it get to you"

<t> All of the US Float planes are available. They're in some .oob files, and otherwise, can be added to custom oobs. (I'd not suggest messing with the stock oobs, as that could toast any scenario that uses those files).<br/> <br/> <br/> Why aren't they in the game? As I mention in the designers not...

<t> Hey all, sorry I've been gone a bit. I'm focusing a bit more on the boardatthe Wargamer now, since it's dedicated to this game.<br/> <br/> In any case, in terms of strikes "running into" one another. That's an actual occurance in the war. I can think of two right off the top of my head. At Midwa...

Aside from clouds, as I said in the designer's notes, the other big risk in searching is if you allocate too few planes to too much arc. You can literally get "dead zones" between aircraft as their arcs separate. I never did figure out a good rule of thumb for that *L*

<t> No there isn't. For land bases, you can set the size of the base, but that doesn't modify the Aircraft Ops value. That said, when it comes to land bases, we're typically talking about Midway or Henderson or even the bombed out remains of Orote (Guam), so it's not quite the same as the air ops wh...

<t> Ok, let's see here<br/> <br/> The various ships do have different turning rates, but I don't know that they're documented ingame anywhere. It's pretty much what you expect. A CV or BB will turn much more slowly than a DD.<br/> <br/> The timeframe on spotting is pdt set, and not per carrier, so, ...

I do need to sharpen the existing scenarios in terms of how much ordinance was carried on each carrier, but that function is in the game.

<t> To go back to the first post. I don't think it is unfair or "wrong" to characterize a game that focuses on the European theater as a "Seven Years War" game, nor is it somehow lacking by not containing the colonial war. <br/> <br/> That would be no different than saying "WiTP isn't a World War II...
