RE: TOAW 3 graphics

Whilst on the topic of graphics, is it possible to mod the in game font? If so, could anyone suggest a nice easy to read font mod, something like Arial maybe. Trying to read this one late at night is making my eyes bleed, even in the higher contrast mode [:D]

RE: Game Killed by Dissapearing Aircraft Bug

1000 missing aircraft!?! Bugs like this are unacceptable in my opinion, it makes me wonder why I bought this game near a year ago if its only just becoming playable in a patch not yet even released. It will certainly be something I will remember before making future purchases.

RE: Replace seasons with another time reference

Ummm, you guys do realise that seasons are basically reversed in the southen hemisphere, dont you? Yes, winter is still winter in the Australian desert, the problem is that it sounds like it will be when the game is saying its 'summer' for the 'entire world' [8|]

RE: Uh? Shouldn't I know my losses on combat reports?

Also both players see the same turn playback, so it would mean you opponent would know you are getting those reinforcements.

1) Yes, they do remain on station, but I beleive they chance to a surface combat task force (to save ammo I guess?). If Im correct (I think I am) you need to switch them back to a bombardment group each turn in order to get them to bombard.<br/>

RE: So the Japanese never invented the bulldozer?

Guys, as you sure the Japanese dont get construction vehicles at some point?

I ask becuase they are in the Japanese construction list and in the smaller scenario I am playing at the moment I actually have a few dozen built. Whats the deal with that [&:]?
