is there any benefit?

You are experiencing what Germany really experienced. But they started losing manpower in 1942.

With lower manpower comes lower experience and eventually no manpower if you take too many hits.

Makes for a challenging game.


for the record, i love the mechanic

it leads to historic strategic ...

late 43

germany's manpower has slipped below 50%

will it recover?

i'd assume not producing units is the idea

how fast will it recover?

good idea for TV?

So you should start to see income within 2 turns?

Briefly:

How does it work when you capture oil?

How long before you gain production?

thank you for this

isn't Baku also main supply?

i have never understood night move, what it does, or how to make a unit do it

so i am interested in this thread

You can upgrade naval units but you cannot change advancements e.g. you cannot make a patrol group from 'warships' to 'convoy escort' the same way as you could change air superiority units from 'interceptors' to 'escort fighters' - at least I haven't figured it out.



why you say this?

Naval advancements cannot be changed on existing vessels (I just realized it).

But then naval advancements seem pointless. I doubt that anyone build any naval units beside subs. At start there are no convoy escort DDs or CVs in the existing UK and USA fleet so there is absolutely no point in ...

Has anyone ever tried a limited '41 Barbarossa while concurrently attempting Sea Lion?

I seem to remember that once you attack Russia their production ramps up? Or maybe it's their experience?

My question, I guess, is if you felt you could attain reasonable goals(say, Mogilev/Kiev) would it make ...

thx!

thats a lot sooner than i thought!!

I think it is doable in '41 and '42 in single player as long as you are not bogged down somewhere major.

I would not delay it for Greece. One cannot use more than 3 infantry there anyway.


When do you usually launch it ?

If you were going to invade Greece, would you finish the Greek campaign ...

When do you usually launch it ?

If you were going to invade Greece, would you finish the Greek campaign first or launch then simultaneously ?

Correct. Really in no WW2 game is invading Norway a good idea except Third Reich because Norway isn't showing,

In fact the Allies didn't invade Norway because the Germans had 200,000 soldiers there doing absolutely nothing.

That's about 12-15 German divisions that could have been used elsewhere ...

It is very tough to say as it depends on how many MMs UK has build in the previous year.

For the same amount of damage you could put the UK in big trouble (most beginner UK player build too few MMs even tough it should the main a priority of its build) or not that much.

But the UK can also ...

How do you know how you are doing as the axis in the BOA?

For instance: how many MM would you need to sink by 1/1/41 in order to be pressuring the UK?

I cannot figure out what are the rules of movement after invasion.
Sometimes I cannot move at all.
Sometimes I can move two paces or one. Sometimes I can attack, sometimes I cant.
