<t> Well, if you want to talk about intelligence in general, there still hasn't been enough said historically about the impact of Ultra on the outcome of the war. That was a simply masterful stroke, not just in the technical scope of breaking ULTRA, but managing the intelligence in such a manner ...

I probably wouldn't overdo the Soviet deception thing, either.<br/>

Deception was also very important on the East Front. The Red Army referred to it as "Maskirovka." For Operation Bagration (the destruction of Army Group Center), they utilized numerous maskirovka techniques to convince the Germans that the ...

I've been away from the game for a very, very long time. I have never really gotten far in an actual PBEM game. Would love to play someone who is also feeling the game out still, send me a PM if interested.

<t> Is there a basic sanity check to the ability of the Germans to build up their forces?<br/>

Historically, I think most would agree that the German economy was about as numerically productive as it could be, withing a factor of 20% or so. I don't think a result that sees the Wehrmacht more ...

Thanks Joel. Thinking about picking this back up, so will wait for the patch...

When is 1.06 going to happen? Is this days/weeks/months away?

Woohoo! Sped way up! Now it should only be 3 more hours!

This is really pretty ridiculous. A 300MB file is too much for this service to handle effectively? Really?
