RE: AE Land and AI Issues

<t> Does anyone have any information about the convoys that appear at Capetown or Pt. Stanley and disappear a few days later? What are we supposed to do with them? They have lots of neat stuff. I see them dropping off fuel and supplies, but their "manifest" describes details like "M3-Lee tanks".</t>

Recon Issue

<r> Has anyone noticed that recon is a bit odd?&nbsp; If I'm in the same hex as an enemy unit, and neither one of us bombards or attacks, I know nothing about the enemy units.&nbsp; However, if I send a bomber from 15 hexes away, they bomb from 25,000 feet, I often get the name of who was bombed ...

RE: Patch 01 ... Patch 02

Whatever happened to the "patch 01 due Aug 24-29"?? Is this a sneaky way to ramp up the tension until it's similar to the tension we experienced waiting for the game's release? Have I found you out?

RE: Rearming DMs for Minelaying

I've had one of big Jap minelayers (I-124, I ...
