exactly, with the type of comments above, this thread is better locked before someone goes too far (& I think there are too many insults already from people who really should know better)
Dont fall off your high horse
Thread doesnt need to be locked as it kills the discussion that was productive before certain people chipped in. I wont be commenting anymore so no need to worry.
add on constant comments like this

Too bad you were not tasked to write the section in the user manual covering this.
gems like
Well this time I will not back down from Loki & will call him out at every opportunity
and I never claim to be an expert player - but try to remember that 90+% of games are vs the AI and the great majority of players actually only play AI, so not sure why this had to be said

... Knowing the rules and all the idiosyncrasies in the manual does not make a good ground commander. ...
but then people think its perfectly ok to put PMs onto the forum.
To this, I could add the near endless stream of abusive PMs.
At the moment the tone of this forum is awful, not everyone (of course) but a group of you seemed to have lost much sense of proportion. When a couple of you start demanding that one of the 2 coders must read your particular question or analyse the latest innovative bit of game play then you may be being a bit over-entitled? Its, too me, pretty ridiculous, especially given the level of practical engagement by the development team across the forum (& on Steam). Despite the endless whinging, the game was not designed by some secretive pro-Soviet cabal, I think a lot of the Axis complaints are to do with not actually using the tools presented.
The lets put the LW in the reserve gambit means you are not getting low level interdiction, but then feel free to complain that admin movement leaves the Soviets too mobile.
so the next time one of the experts comes up with a gem like
IF anything is < 30 hexes of the level 2+ Railyard that Railyard capacity may be utilized to move the freight. Think of the Level 2 Railyard as "Train Engines" to move the rail cars(freight). Thus a level 2+ Railyard of Lvov can move that freight to a depot within 30 hexes and then a level 2+ Railyard at Kiev could pick up(send train engines) that frieght (rail cars) and continue to move that freight on the rail (using rail capacity of the track) on down the line to the highest destination depot number on the rail line. That is why you will see freight received from Berlin on some of these depots that are deep in the Soviet Union. At least that is how I visualize it and may be 100% wrong but seems very right to me in the workings
then I don't particularly feel much urge to try and get it corrected - and enough of you found it convincing because, of course, its easier to believe the 'game is broken'?
Anyway purely for me, I'm not posting anywhere apart from in the few AARs I find interesting for some time - just not worth it in terms of my mental health as much as everything else.
So thank you to 'Toxic Thug' that post really did just tip me out the door. I could have probably exceeded the post word limit if I included all the snippy comments and abuse casually dumped on me - by a relatively small group.
