Thanx everyone !

Hello,

I'm new with this game.
Can anyone explain me or point to the right Thread about 'Activate Pt Boats', 'Activate Landing Craft' and 'Activate MCBs' that are greyed out on cargo Task forces ?

<t> Hello,<br/>
<br/>
I'm new to WITP AE.<br/>
So far I've overcome all the hurdles to make everything work on a new PC (SeaBee, dual Java install, etc ...).<br/>
<br/>
Last problem I have is to make the tracker work with scenario 100 (working fine with stock scenario Coral Sea).<br/>
There is ...

<t> A pop-up on this thread because of all the lastly vastly overexagerated and inconstructive comments on the game in this forum.<br/>
<br/>
I was a big fan of ACW1, played it a lot including PBEM. I bought the new one a few monthes ago but never played it. I'm on it now against the AI for a few ...

Actually, considering how much of a mess the first game was, it'll not be that hard to beat.

I think the first game is/was a very good game and I don't know what mess you are talking about.

Recon in this game is also ridiculous generally. There is little or no opportunity for operational surprise. Players have way more intelligence on the enemy than they ought to. and once again the air model is the villain of the piece ...

I always found strange that 'static' mode is never used in campaign game whereas you can see for exemple in the 42 campaign starting point that this mode was intended in the initial ...

Lowering supply production isn't the way to deal with this, imo, but I can see it's the most readily available way to address the matter given the constraints of the editor. Transportation is the real constraint, not supply per se. <br/>

I would be content if I could click on a unit and have functioning RR hexes displayed at the same time.

+1: what a pain in the a**

Sudden death and a dynamic VP system, eventually linked with NM evolution are not the same question.
You can have one with or without the other.

Why do we always mix the two debates ?

Is this game / simulation flawed?<br/>
<br/>
IMHO not!<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
Why do people think it is flawed?<br/>
<br/>
Because many still think that Germany could have won against Soviet Union and / or that Japan could have won ...

<t> I think our problem is that we are mixing three debates: <br/>
<br/>
1) Is the game a a good simulation/modelization of warfare at the time ? <br/>
- logistics is overly favorable for offensive side <br/>
- are political / economical constraints correctly modelized ? <br/>
- german entry ...

Wrong thread

<r> Thank you, very interesting AND funny. Do you know that in 10 years of wargame's forums you're the first to actually trying to answer the question.<br/>

Let us say we'd like to achieve the most realistic historical simulation (as above, with reasonable abstractions such that it remains playable). I think we'd all like the game to be able to produce some range of outcomes, rather than every game ...

No, I don't think the AI knows it has to build forts, so don't expect to run into very high fort levels outside of the ports that already start high.

Thx

What happen to SU attached to forts when I disband the fort ? Are they disbanded too ?
