I would like to jump in with my 2 cents (unadjusted for inflation as well). I have probably not played this game 300 hours yet, but I am most likely not too far off from that number.

I have been struck by how these bug races (Boskara and Dhayut) are able to spread their empires far and wide with ...

You're not required to do so- you can invade without attacking or destroying anything. The AI has the same restrictions (only very recently in the Beta does the AI have any kind of advantage at all, and it has nothing to do with combat). I even suggest blitzing a planet to make use of their ...

I am not sure if this issue was raised already, but I have been quite frustrated to see the AI invade my planets without first having to destroy my Starport and Defensive Bases. As the human player I am forced to destroy/capture these before my ships will land an invading army but not so for the AI ...

This has always bugged me too. Every time I upgrade a ship I have to keep going back through the weapons systems changing everything back to the way I had it before. My preferred systems may be a bit older but are usually better imo than the newer system the AI plops back in. Can there at least be ...

The timing of this going official will depend on the feedback we get. If 1.0.5.6 proves to be stable, it could potentially become official as early as next week, otherwise we'll iterate with another beta update to get closer to a build that is worthy of becoming a new official update. There are a ...

Hi Erik, any idea when this will go as an official update?

Still looking?

The one line I would take issue with is that US might have entered to save Britain, is there any historical justification for this ?<br/>

<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
Considering the US close relationship with ...

<t> Every game models the US game economy on what happened historically. But the only reason the US had an all-out war effort was because of being attacked by the Japanese. There was a huge anti-war sentiment in the US that never really gets factored into a game. If the US goes to war early, without ...

Mtn units are specialized. If they were 30 like any other infantry why wouldn't you build a mountain of them. Pun intended.

<br/>
Yes that is why they take longer to build and cost more in production, but still ...

<t> I am curious why building a mountain corps requires 60 logistics (the same as a mech or armored corps) and a large infantry corps is 30? Between the two the infantry corps will have more trucks and heavier artillery, whereas the whole point to a mountain corps is to be lighter and more nimble ...

Couldn't the paratroops be allowed to drop into the beach/invasion hex? They will have to wait a turn to attack unless Alvaro implements the change that may leave a couple ops points.

<t> Alvaro, <br/>

Sorry to post this here but since we are discussing supply I figured it would be a good place. It seems that ports are coded to provide supply no matter if there is a connection via sea hexes to a valid supply source. Is this correct? <br/>

<t> I moved an Italian unit to Aqaba but cannot move into the hex to take the port. I believe the hex is one of those invasion hexes, but I am not sure if Aqaba should be there. Also, I took the port of Bandar Shapur in Persia. All of the hexes around it get supply except for the port hex. It seems ...

Handling partisans is simple. Place units at junctions. Do not worry about the non partisan units. The rail repairs itself. if a unit partisan shows up you can destroy them fairly easily. This was play tested extensively and mimics the ...

<t> I need to throw in my two cents and say the partisans are way too strong. I am in December 1941 with attacks all over the place and even 7 partisan divisions appearing on the map in Russia. The attack frequency needs to be lowered and then increased over time. <br/>

I just sent a PM to you.

What is your experience level with the game?
