RE: (New) books on WW2

<t> Professor Mitter's book is interesting, but is more of an introductory book than anything else. It mostly focuses on political affairs on China's side, and the war itself, despite the title, only appears almost reluctantly, in passing. I would only suggest it for people who don't know what ...

One of the great joy of WiF is that you will do mistakes in a game. In the next one, you won't do them again, but you'll do a bunch of new ones.<br/>
My best advice would be for you to set-up units, then post it on this forum explaining your reasoning behind your set ...

RE: Carrier Planes

Carrier planes were abused and the rules changed, now the only mission they can perform if not on a CV at sea is rebasing.

Oil multiplication bug

I guess it must be easy to replicate. During the set-up phase for USSR, set up oil. Move it to another city, bam, it doubles. Move it again, it doubles again until it reaches the stacking limit.

RE: Chinese map and Japanese set up

<t> I agree with Brian. Unless you plan a defensive war in China, you must decide if your first short-term objective will be Changsha or Si'an and deploy accordingly. I am assuming from your set-up you are playing with Chinese nationalist weakness, to each his own, but that's actually another good ...

RE: Nanchang Japanese Supply Bermuda Triangle

<r> Supply in China/Manchuria for Japan is broken, and I suspect like Zorachu that it has to do with the additional Chinese cities; basically, China is not mapped correctly in the game. I guess we will have to wait for a fix, and restart the game every phases until then. It isn't a problem created ...

RE: Globar war / Japan strategy

<t> Mwif has changed things quite a lot for Japan in the early game; actually Japan is much weaker now. The new map makes China a real risk. It is still possible to knock it out, but it WILL take time, and if your invasion doesn't proceed well enough, you will simply lack the manpower to accomplish ...

RE: Why are they out of supply?

There must be something wrong with supply pathing in Manchuria; at the start of each USSR impulse, all Japanese units immediately turn out of supply, you have to reload the game to fix it.

Why are they out of supply?

<r> As the title says, I do not understand what's happening here.[&:]<br/>
I railed all the Japanese HQs to Manchuria to try to fix this, but no, they will go out of supply immediately. Weather is fine, and there are convoy points in China Sea.<br/>
