Thank you Piteas.

I now see that all the scenarios, with the exception of the tutorial, are suitable for play against the AI as either Nationalists or Republicans.

My apologies for my earlier confusion, but I had been reading the scenario descriptions for games with the Nationalists AI button ...

Thank you Dali101 and Piteas.

So it seems that it is possible to play a reasonable game as the Nationalists vs the AI in the main campaign, even though the scenario is listed as " Scen01 Great Campaign Republican". And also the Northern scenario, even though it is listed as "Scen03 Republican ...

This looks to be a very interesting game. Full credit to the devs for creating such a detailed take on a complicated war.

However my reading of the scenario descriptions is that all 10 of the scenarios, including the campaign game, are recommended as being best played as the Republicans if playing ...

Okay understood.

Thanks berto

I do appreciate the UI tweaks by berto. For example the option to have the damage results window in the centre of the screen really does facilitate gameplay.

One other tweak would also be appreciated if it is possible to implement. Currently the unit handbook window has long lists of parameters and ...

I was initially tentative about getting this game ( due to what I regard as unappealing 3D graphics). However I like playing with 2D NATO counters and when I saw the the 2D map screens were good I decided to give it a go.

After about 50 hours of play I am gobsmacked. This is a brilliant game ...

Okay thanks Jango

Yes it's very situational

Sorry Jango I don't. Playing a new game now.

Not really concerned about being whacked by the AI (on challenging) in the last game. Good to play a game where the AI can be challenging.

I was more interested in the viability of deploying reserves at the Army or Corps level.

Yes I am sure that was a factor

Yes the Soviet breakthroughs came in January 1942 so I should have planned for reserves then.

Thanks Veterin.

No I don't have a screen shot as I have started a new game. Anyway it would be embarrassing to post evidence of my defensive ineptitude :-)

I am aware of the checkerboard defence tactic, but it is interesting that you don't see the need for defensive reserves. Maybe I am too ...

Playing a campaign game as Axis vs AI I just got my butt kicked by the Soviets.

As the Soviets broke through my lines I found it very difficult to stop them as I had few reserves behind the lines. The main reason for this is that the front lines were so vast I needed almost every unit for the front ...

<t> Hi,<br/>
I just purchased and downloaded the Red Tide DLC.<br/>
<br/>
However when I tried to add the DLC to my game I get the following message " setup has detected that you you do not have v1.04..114733 " and it requests that I get the latest version of the game. I am not able to add the ...

Okay thanks

Many thanks for this excellent explanation.

Why are some of these numbers in parentheses ? Do the brackets signify anything ?

Many thanks for this excellent explanation.

Haha !

This mystery may never be solved [:D]

What do the numbers in parentheses on the bottlenecks overlay mean ? e.g (100%)

<t> Yes this is a great game. And with each patch it gets even better.<br/>
<br/>
Definitely the best game I have ever played.<br/>
<br/>
WITPAE is also very good. Not so great for solo play though. I played PBEM for several years and really enjoyed it. But WITE2 is far superior for solo play ...
