Thanks Guys for the posts but no further advanced.
On the question of why you cannot load them during turn setup, remember that the Surprise at game start means the Allies cannot do anything with their ships (other than those already at sea) until after the first turn is run
After looking at this game for years, I purchased over the holidays and I'm in the middle of Day 1 set up using Kulls' spreadsheet while watching Strategy Gaming Dojo's "Lets Play" series...Patch Beta 1126b and am halfway through the 1st day setup.
<t> I have colourblindness, and with my version I tend to see greens, yellows, oranges, reds, and browns as being more similar shades of colour than normal. This issue doubles down when under low or artificial light, and for me this makes for a frustrating in game experience in a number of areas ...
<t> Went searching for the same answer. <br/> <br/> I also picked a very pale yellow as my unit colour and now it is virtually impossible to distinguish the letter/number in the top-right of the counter. I know that isn't game breaking but I also know that it will frustrate the hell out of me the ...
<t> Any experienced player up to making a You-Tube series about the first Axis turns? What little info around is mostly four + years old. <br/> <br/> I learnt so much about the game by watching the many Axis opening turns videos available. Searching for a Soviet equivalent is the proverbial Needle ...
<t> I've very recently taken up the game again after a long time away. I now remember what originally made the game so difficult for me. I suffer from red/green colour-blindness and sometimes for me the colour boarders around armies is difficult to distinguish. I'm pretty well sure you can't modify ...
<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Taipan<br/> <br/> Why do the fort size capabilities have to be the same for both sides? Russian level 1 forts defend only one side; German level 1 forts defend on two sides; This scales up as the fort ...
<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Oleg Mastruko<br/> <br/> Be careful what you ask for, because I really see this idea of yours as going HEAVILY against Germans in the long run. <br/>

<r> The thing I do hate with historical weather is just that...Everyone knows the exact turn when mud/snow/blizzard appears, and accommodates many turns in advance for this situation. The same situation occurs when playing the AI. Yeah, it is very nice to know from opening turn in 41 that you will ...
<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Joel Billings<br/> <br/> No demo planned, but there are some videos of it on youtube <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> <br/> Thanks Joel for the reply. I'd looked at the majority of them as well as scanned this long thread from beginning to end before posting. Been ...
<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: krooh<br/> <br/> I didn't say I wasn't buying the game, just wondering why the larger then usual price tag. <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> <br/> I guess that is currently my stumbling block as well. Currently I feel that same about this game. Looks great, the depth ...
I make sure I re-visit this thread every month or so to keep tabs on the progress. Wonderfull to see the light at the end of the tunnel can be seen and I'm quite sure the wait will be well & truely worth it.
