For others to see, bumping this post.

Has the 'Stone Age' option been disabled? It is grayed out in the basic game settings.

In this game I was playing the French with German, Japan, and China. Delayed war option was in effect and lasted for 4 or 5 turns as I recall. Japan declared war on me, but they were ill prepared, and I quickly got the jump on them. It took time, of course, but I eventually fully defeated them ...

I have played this game on and off for over 10 years. Without a doubt it is my favorite wargame. This game I finished last evening was the toughest I have played and came very close to only the second game that the AI beat me. As in the that one lost to the AI, I had a very long border that included ...

I am still seeing resource hex label mismatches.

This one works ...

bump!

Good job Phoenix Team! Excellent work making ATG a better game and working out those bugs.

I'd like to repeat a couple of observations on the Phoenix game:
1) Ai builds aircraft factories but I have yet to see any evidence it either builds and/or uses aircraft.
2) Ai builds shipyards but ...

Observations:

1) The AI does build shipyards, but in my test game all I saw was a bunch of cruisers and cargo ships stacked on the shipyard. I did not notice any naval activity taking place.
2) The AI does not spam factories anymore. Yea!
3) The AI does not make suicide attacks anymore. Yea!
4 ...

Another bug: I have noticed several raw hexes mislabeled as oil.

I was just pointing out a bug, though it is a real spoiler. I can wait until it is fixed.

I played a second game, and this happened again. The turn after I captured an AI capital, another AI was declared the winner. This AI only had 12vp. I had double that amount. VP required to win was 38.


I ran into a bug with this version. I was playing a game against three Ai. The turn following ...

I ran into a bug with this version. I was playing a game against three Ai. The turn following my capture of the Russia capitol, the game declared one of the AI the winner. No player was near the 44 VP required for victory. I re-ran the turn where I captured the Russian AI capital and chose not to ...

Just skip it and continue. The message simply means it is not going to overwrite a newer version. All is good.

Thanks, and no special mods. I just ran three quick test games: start dates 1930, 1933 and 1932.

Thanks!
