I saw the announcement of the DLC and I wondered about its focus. Currently, the leaders have tons of stats already, many more than comparable games, and it is really unclear to me how lots of them impact the game. Some of the stats also seem to have trivial impacts, and the interface doesn't help ...

I presume you are referencing 'Decisions'. They are such an integral part woven into the game, I suspect it may not be possible to eliminate/mod them all out.
I have had from 0 to10+ plus (each round), but have never, really, minded them; & looked forward to many of them.
Turning off the Story ...

Is there any way to disable, mod or reduce the frequency of events? There are a lot of trivial and repetitive events that take me out of the interesting parts of the game to worry about a few point shifts here or there on someone's loyalty or an ideology's score. I'd rather just not have to deal ...

Hi.

The rail points can only move between the station and the real head, or rather, only a small fraction, 10% IIRC, that's why there's few points going to the ruins.

To calculate the amount of truck points it needs to take into account the refocusing penalty, which is 25% base plus some more ...

Hi, I'm trying to work out how this logistics preview adds up:

The city in the bottom right has the following logistics buildings:
- Rail station generating 10560 points
- Transport hub generating 1600 points

The city in the top left has:
- Transport hub generating 800 points
- Rail head: 10 ...

Thanks for this. Although it looks to me that the command tank doesn't have line of sight to the defend waypoint. Is that correct?

I want to check the following situation I've encountered to see if the game is working as designed or if I'm not using some features correctly:

I have a tank platoon east of a forest. I want the tanks to move through the forest and stop at the west side of the forest just on the tree line, so they ...

Waypoint editor, ctrl+ right click on the waypoint and adjust to your liking.


Thanks, but what I mean is this:

- At set up, I have a company in march formation at point of origin and I want it to march to a waypoint in march formation but change to line formation when it reaches the waypoint ...

I want a company to be in march formation until they reach the waypoint then switch to line. Is there a way to do this without having to make an intermediate waypoint just before the final waypoint that is set to line?

Please answer true or false (and feel free to elaborate, because I'm just guessing at this stage):

Units in companies with organic HQs trace to their HQ for command and control. They have to be within the HQ's dark blue radius for this.

If its organic HQ is not in range, a unit traces to the ...

Thanks for the quick and detailed responses.

One other question: my issue with the Steel Division/WARNO engine is that it takes a lot of micromanagement to stop units from doing dumb things and dying too quickly. How do you think AB2 compares in this respect?

Any thoughts on AB2 versus Regiments or WARNO? Do you think the gameplay will be more in-depth than these two? I've not been following the development of this, nor did I play AB1. I have watched a few videos recently, but it just looks like a graphically inferior version of these other games at ...

I'm getting a unit feat of -100% in the combat odds preview window but I don't know what is causing it. It seems to be applying to all the units I'm using versus some of the planet's creatures. I thought it might be insufficient armour penetration but the hard attack number of my individual units ...

Ironically... on round 48 I found a metal deposit(!) - the universe works in strange ways sometimes.


Something strange happened to me today too. I loaded up the game this morning and I noticed a new metal and a new rare deposit near each other! Honestly, I wonder if it is a bug as I don't know ...

ringhloth wrote: Fri Apr 07, 2023 3:36 pm Some planets types tend towards not having a dense planet, which results in little to no metal deposits.

I couldn't see a density number anywhere but I saw that "heavy elements = 80%".

I’m at about turn 25 and pretty much every turn I’m discovering a new resource deposit, but without exception they are either water or oil. I was wondering if it was just a run of bad dice rolls (they are both worthless for trade) but I’m starting to think these are the only resources available on ...

Thanks mate, very helpful!

As noted by thewood1, it is a text/windows convention.


I'm still dealing with technical issues, so haven't played the game enough to see that you have to enter text somewhere. Where does that happen?

Shadow Empires, Warplan Pacific, and War in the East, just to name some examples, all have ...

I've not spent long with the game yet, so I might be missing something, but it seems hotkeys are mostly Ctrl+key rather than just the key. I had assumed this was because the key was used for other functions, but it doesn't seem to be. I'm sure there must be a coding reason for it but usability-wise ...

Yes, please let me know what doesn't work for you. Either here, or using a forum message.

Thanks, I've now PM'ed you with screenshots.
