Thank you.  And with a name like Leyte you would almost have to be into naval warfare! [8D]

Can you select these in this edition?

Thinking of buying but all the screenies I see have the "little ship/plane" symbols and I just don't like that look. I want more of an AEGIS screen feel.

Thanks.

Does anybody know when the release date is? According to Ubi, its "sometime in november", whereas according to ebgames it is today (although it still says "pre-order".

I think that the original FF effects in FB were a tad too powerful - so I use a toned down version which is a nice compromise ...

You have charts and you know how to read 'em - Oh please. So...your charts ...

<t> Pro-Soviet bias - huh?? There seems to be more than a bit of anti-IL-2 bias on these boards.<br/>

For the record;<br/>
1. Historical Accuracy;<br/>
- Yes the KGV's are place holders, and yes 1C could not fit all of the content on to the 2 CD's that UBI allowed them to issue.<br ...

XP CAN be problematic for some older games - but we must be clear here in terms of what "older" game means - that would be anthing before say 1999. Otherwise you should have no problems.

BTW, UV is NOT an older game.

Thanks for the info.

Hmmm...I'll have to play around some more.

Thanks,

1. The object – as it was historically is for the IJN to take PM, correct?<br/>
2. So…I just formed a TF around a bunch of AP’s and a couple of DD’s at and am loading up the 17th SNLF and a bunch of fuel and supplies. How long do troops take to load ...

Hey;

The float plane is still there too!

I like the manual,but it's not the best way for me personally to learn,(by itself)..

<br/>
I hear ya, you do have to learn by doing. I now have my delays set to 2 minutes. Seems like a good compromise.<br/>
<br/>
BTW ...

<t> So…let me see if I have this straight – setting it to, say, 1.00 minute will give me a bare bones end of battle description, while setting delay to, say, 3 minutes will give me more detail. And…if I hit DONE before the animation finishes I will not get much info at all. Yet, the end of turn AAR ...

So what do these do exactly and what do you set them at and why?

Thanks,
Barkhorn.

<r> How about a few more??<br/>

Yea hbut will the tuturial be that big over here in the UK with our crappy DVD cases?
<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
<br/>
You'll probably have to print the tutorial as well, since it was posted in another thread that you won't get any printed stuff ...

That would be nice. Actually, the manual is pretty good - and I'm taking my time going through it - using scenaro #1 as my "test bed". I expect that by the end of this week i will be able to actually play a scenario. The leve of detail is really a wonder to behold.

..ohh..and I would recommend;

A Battle History of the Japanese Navy by Paul S. Dull and
The Fast Carriers by Cark Reynolds.
