<t> How come you suddenly insist on having to log in to a 'members area', which demands a NEW registration, i.e. not able to use login from 'forums'. I guess I am not the only one sick and tired of all fxxking registrations here and there wherever you move. The previous downloads where provided free ...

But please don't "grey out" the research button while in movement phase - I often have a look at the research screen when making a decision to attack a specific area or not, i.e. to see whether it might be worthwhile to wait another round for increased tech level.

80% of my time playing is in the production and research screen, what do you want to see while i am in the production phase?

Endless discussions have previously taken place. For example, try searching for "LAN" and choose page 7 of the hits, see my posting (Gullet) in the thread "PBEM".

<t> Has anybody else had suspicions of a partisan bug? I have not totally read up on the rules governing partisan activity, but the postings here are in line with my previous understanding, i.e. if you have a partisan figure of 3, you have to have three "valid" and supplied units to quell them ...

But yes, playing via TCP/IP, where the only thing that is exchanged is the PBEM save file, would work just fine. The only concern is you wouldnt see the opponents turn as it happens. But it would be better.

Please elaborate - as far as I know, the tutorial works fine on the default settings that exist when the game is installed. It was tested and it's advised that players play the tutorial first. I believe it also mentions on the entry screens ...

<t> As I am definitely on MantisMan's side on this matter (although having bought the game) I disagree that it is not playable over TCP/IP. In my feedback to Matrix/2by3 I will be sure to mention this AGAIN. <br/>

This sadly leads me back to the issue on retail release (which I have not ...

Where player can see on which level particular tech is?

If I understand what you are asking for you see it by pressing F4, the scales at the bottom are the "world standard".

Actually the national League condemned Japanese occupation of Manchuria in 1932 or 1933. And Japan quitted from National League just because of this international action.

OK, having played the E Med assault a dussin more times now, on very few instances is the DE player allowed to use his larger numbers (as would be expected), so far so ...

<t> A detailed answer as always, Mr Billings, which is much appreciated.<br/>

A few thoughts:<br/>
<br/>
I kind of guessed the thoughts behind the "reduction/randomizer in the number of engaging ships" scheme and I agree with the general idea behind it. However, it is not logical that as ...

<r> Bang! right on target! [:)]<br/>
<br/>
I agree to the fact that adding an LF could actually increase probability of own casualties, taking into account that more of the defenders ships, i.e. LFs, will be probable to conduct combat (if I interpret rules correctly). However, what I do not agree ...

<t> I am Germany, first turn of game. WA has fleets in Eastern Med <br/>
(2 HF, 2 LF, 1 TR) and GE has based in Southern Italy (3 HF, 3 LF, 4 TR, 2 SUB). If I attack with ALL Germany's fleets (even tried incl. TR, but do not know if that should actually make a diff., either way same result with all ...

<t> Unfortunately I must agree to the term DISASTER as the first writer put it, but on different grounds.

The game has not been distributed in Europe. Matrix is currently negotiating distribution for Europe that will include retail distribution in many languages. We hope it will make it to Europe in a big way in several months.

There is supposed to be a VCR function according to earlier discussions in this forum. Have not played it yet myself, but people who have can probably fill you in on it.

<t> I agree with Scott_WAR, that this is another reason to deliver TCP/IP support in the next patch. In that case everybody would be present/online when a game starts and it would be impossible to perform the "first turn multiload" cheat if programmed accordingly.<br/>
