Latest update is v1.50.034. DropBox link for the EXE only has been updated in the first post.

We found and fixed a few issues with v1.50.032 in .033:
- CRASH! Fixed issue when a sponsored minor port needed to be evacuated and a port was available to the major sponsor but not the minor (Obscure but ...

FYI. Now that MWIF updates are over, Magic through operating on the game file could be a way to make tweaks or even updates to our MWIF gaming experience.


I encourage this effort. I have held off getting too deep into MWiF all these years because I've been waiting for the half-map Fascist Tide ...

For the record, I am not endorsing any of these modification to my A3R mod. Welk is welcome to make his own modifications to his own mod as he sees fit, but let's be clear that he needs to call it something else and maybe start a separate topic. I have no comment about his proposed revisions. If ...

The latest v1.5 is pretty good but it still has opportunities for improvement.

Could you list what you would see improved ? (scripts, actions, events, etc)


I had a v1.6 in the works but lost it with a Windows reinstall. I was playing 3R back in the 1970s and then A3R, and working on this ...

No installer for just released Battle Plan; only Steam key?


I'm used to seeing Steam games installed and run from C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ if I want to install it on my hard drive. This is no longer an option?

If we cannot install a game, then it is unlikely that we can ...

Two significantly noticeable differences are leaders and convoys. Instead of separate HQ units that provide a bonus to multiple nearby units, CEAW has leaders that are assigned to specific units which increases the maximum Effectiveness of all units within his Leadership Range. Instead of convoy ...

I occasionally play your Mod. Is there any documentation to look at that will show more about the Mod such as changes, new rules etc.?
Thanks.


Thanks. There's my Design Notes, which might not be in the download. I've posted this before but maybe you missed it. It doesn't explain everything but ...

By curiosity : how many time did you spent to build this map, that is really realist and exccelent in this scale ? I tried myself but it was too hard, the "coast tool" is not very efficient and I did fail
Could you please explain how you did that (your method) ?


I started fresh with SC-WIE and ...

Sure, no problem. It's a composite of 3R and WIF maps at double 3R scale.

Just wondering how to access the Free State status window...
Can not deploy Free State core counters or view future Free State reinforcements.


If you click on the minor, its status panel shows at the bottom right. At the top right of that panel, there is the View Available Counters button to ...

Ah, got it. Just run the EXE and not the BAT. Works now. Thanks!

Latest update is v1.50.032. DropBox Link in first post has been updated.

We've made a few more changes. Hopefully we're close to being final. Let's see how this goes for a week or so. Again, we're close to being final so if all looks good then we'll be ready to wrap it up and send files to Matrix.

There is Magic
And Ronnie's paper on editing MWIF helps a lot once you figure things out


Could you elaborate on this? What/where is Magic? And Ronnie’s paper is probably the Layman’s Guide thread; is there a downloadable pdf guide? If/when I get serious about trying a solitaire game, I’ll want ...

Any advance ( not specified) in the huge lag in the last years of war when moving land units?


From last year's development update:
Since Microsoft is removing support for Windows 10 in October, I bought a new computer system, running Windows 11. To accompany that change, I upgraded my version ...

I'm thinking perhaps there may be a problem with copy&paste and that some files may not be overwriting the old files? Particularly the EXE. The old version may not run with all of the other new files. I would start with that and see if the new EXE installs and runs. If not, then as tedious as it may ...

I got a response from a playtester:

I've had no issues what so ever.
Download the zip file from the browser without logging into dropbox.
Transfer the zip file to our host computer.
Browse into the zip file.
Select all files and 'copy'.
Go to EiA folder and select 'paste' + 'Overwrite all' (when ...

All very strange indeed. All we're doing is adding/replacing files? Alright, hang in there. Release may not be too far off.

Only thing I can suggest is to maybe copy&paste the individual files or subfolders into the game folder where they belong, to ensure everything is there. Sometimes the game will not start if files are missing, and perhaps what you were doing was missing something. I don't know. It should work to ...

Playtesters have been able to open the zip file and copy&paste the updates into their new beta game folder and play OK. Are you doing something else perhaps? Try uninstalling your beta installation, reboot, and try again.

The latest v1.50.029 beta had a couple of issues reported by playtesters and these have been fixed:
- Kingdom units would not unload from fleets
- Selected minor nation window not showing the View Available Counters screen for a selected Free State, but showing it for a conquered minor
