Re: Steam key into Matrix Key

the big advantage of steam is that you can get a refund if it turns out the game should have been in development 6 months longer, if slitherine can follow suit i'd be happy to buy direct and not give a cut to gabe

RE: Desert War: Why Didn't You Buy?

<t> I would check this out but after a lot of bad experiences I only buy matrix games over steam bc steam will refund purchases that turned out to be mistakes. I bought the SGS afrika korps game over steam but would have grabbed this instead if it was available. I am sure your game is great but I ...

RE: Allies: Operation Husky: HQ unit unable to reach destination

I believe that means that you are about to enter higher naval interdiction territory - view in interdiction mode to see if that's the case

RE: Looking for a good WW2 strategy game

<t> Just play war in the west- I promise it isn't bad once you learn it! The manual is supremely laid out and ran contrary to every fear/expectation I had going in after bouncing hard off war in the pacific. I find battle planning outcomes are quite intuitive if you are familiar with the history of ...

RE: Is the US production level below historical levels?

<t> Yeah, Japan esp. is over-resourced, but IMO that's a good thing. Given the engine's inability to model the difficulties of being on the offense as the US in the pacific, the US would have too easy a time if the resource ratios were translated literally from RL. As a knock-on effect they've also ...

RE: Is adding AI control to allied countries so that you can play only as Italy for example, is planned?

<t> I love this feature in Strategic Command, especially putting the AI in charge of the Chinese and Soviets and playing only as the US and UK. It is a much more faithful recreation of the problems of command to _not_ have full control over your allies - there was zero coordination and little ...

It never registered with me that the discount to upgrade from CMANO to CMO was time-limited and I resolved to take it up when I was ready to handle it. Now I see that it's time limited, tho tbh I'm not sure why as the game didn't stop being obsolete. Any chance the devs ...
