Hi Cactus,
 
First, you will NEVER learn WITP.  No one can.  [:'(]
 
Second, you will need WITP in order to use AE, so you should buy WITP now and learn a few of the basics that moved beyond UV.  Things will certainly be different in AE, but I suspect the baseline knowledge will carry over.
 
Third:  Yes, Terminus, I know that AE is just a figment of our collective insanity, but I am nutty about it.  [:D]

I like you played UV for many years. I have now moved to WITP. But I have only been playing for less than a month. Lot more to think about and plan.
I would go for WITP now and apply the patches.
I also think that you have to have WITP before you can add AE, but others with greater minds than me can confirm that.

Yes, you have to have WiTP in order to load AE.

So get the game and mess with it. And definitely look at the AE sub-forum. AE is different enuf so that many WiTP techniques won’t work so well.

Changing the rules of warfare, that's not allowed. Under the Geneva convention ...[;)]

yea and we all know what happened to them.
It doesn't make any sense, Admiral. Were we better than the Japanese or just luckier?
