I was inspired to go back and try it again, and it worked! Must have missed a dash or added a space or something last time. I think I need a bigger monitor or better eyes hehe, I'm used to running in 800X600 (17" monitor), at 1024X768 things are mighty small. Thanks guys!

<t> I picked this up at EB the other day but havent had a chance to install untill today. The CD key serial number printed on the sleeve is apparently incorrect (invalid serial number response). I've tried typing it with dashes, without, with spaces, without etc, there are no letters all numbers so ...

Approx 20-25 armies of varying size and consistency.

Sweet! The Civil war game using the world at war engine sounds great.

I wanna make sure I understand this. Each playable side can have FoW turned on/off independently.

Does that mean if FoW is on for the German player, for example, that he cannot see all the other opposiong research/units/whatever, or that they cannot see his?

Les is there enough money in your budget for a PS2 or Xbox? Many of those types of game are availble ofr the consoles. I had a great time playing Medal of Honor on the PS2, which plays just like the game you described.

<t> The Total War series is out now, but its not WWII era (medieval Japan, Europe). You manuever units on a strategic level, then when they meet you fight a tactical battle. <br/>

Star general was one of the original General series (Panzer General, Allied General, Fantasy General, Star ...

Multi level games do exist, so they can work. The Total War series is a good example. Star General or the Cosmic Balance II are good examples of what happens when it all goes wrong.

First board wargame was AH's Original Gettysburg, with the square grid.

First computer wargame was Chris Crawford's Eastern Front for the Atari 800XL, came on a cartridge. Those were the days...

Gracias Senor's!

<r>This has probably been asked before but I haven't found the thread (no reference to it in the manual that I can find either);<br/>
<br/>
What do the letters between the Range and Damage columns, in the Factory/Weapons display, refer to? (csm, c, sm ... etc) <EMOJI seq="1f615" tseq="1f615 ...

<r>Ah, I see. I guess I shouldn't disband my TF's so quickly. I've been routinely disbanding TF's when they reach port (If I didn't need them right away) assuming they would replenish and repair. Thanks for the info! <br/>

The Lex will take part in operation "Fool's mate" as scheduled. <E>:D ...

<r>The Lexington has been sitting in Noumea(not part of a TF, at anchor/docked) for more than a month, with 1 point of system damage. It's endurance reads 1944(in red), and its fuel reads 736(in red). These numbers don't change from day to day. Port capacity is 7 (of 8), am I missing something, or ...

I think the point is that TF's containing only MSW ships can be assigned minelaying missions, which they then appear to carry out (they move to the target hex, etc), the program shouldn't allow this, but it does.

<r>It could just be a case of randomness, I had the Yorktown take 1 torpedo and 1 bomb hit and sink the same turn, conversly the Shokaku took 7 bomb and 3 torpedo hits and made it back to Truk(then Japan).<br/>
<br/>
Really, unless <I><s>[I]</s>odd<e>[/I]</e></I> results like this happen dozens of ...

You can disband airgroups, the planes will be transferred to the nearest squadron(operating the same aircraft type). It's a great way to consolidate your squadrons early in the game and get the commander you want.

<t>I've been playing an allied long campaign and keep all my fighter sqaudrons at 90% cap all the time in order to provide maximum protection to a base(Port Moresby in this case), with the mission set to escort. <br/>
<br/>
This is the only way I've found to get maximum cap over the base, which ...

<t>I run a voodoo 5 in my machine, which is a dual processor card, and the effect you describe happens with many programs I've run, anyway, if you have a dual processor vid card set it to one processor only. <br/>
<br/>
Another thing you might try is changing the font smoothing option in the control ...

<r>Is there any mission that can be selected that will keep your fighters performing CAP and only CAP(not long range CAP either)?<br/>
<br/>
I find that they go-a-escorting or sweeping a little to frequently, while their base is being bombed into rubble.<br/>
<br/>
I think this was asked before, but ...

<r>This <I><s>[I]</s>"issue"<e>[/I]</e></I> was raised many times previously. I too would have liked to have seen a printed manual come with the game. Printing costs for a 200 page bound 8 1/2 by 5 inch manual is about 2.50 a copy with small quantities(500-1000), it gets cheaper after that. <E>:D</E ...
