Locating Reinforcements

Post by New York Jets »

I am continually getting the warning that I will lose reinforcements if I advance the phase. And this is just in the tutorial.

How do I find out where and how many reinforcements I hava available?

I was playing France and the 'Show Nation Statistics' button kept saying there were none available.

Am I looking in the wrong place?

If you click on any area in your home nation, the status bar on the left above the buttons will show you what you have coming, including free states. However, it doesn't split up the free states.
 
To get individual free state information, click on any area inside the home nation boundaries of the free state (I think).

I will agree that this can be VERY annoying for minors, particuarly if you have several free states.

He may mean a more streamlined and easier interface.

Full rein shown on one screen so no hunting around. Land & sea

For instance I look ahead to plan ART & GD so as not to overbuild. Ships come as a surprise w/o taking lots of effort to see what's coming when to buy fleets. I get tired of replaying Econ to build a Fleet counter. Also all minor rein on same screen

You might want to try:
Click on "Show Current Nation Statistics"
and then click on your Freestates and the info shows in the Status Panel and Box(3.1.5)

Not good enough, I want one screen shows everything. One stop shopping. Minor reinforcements are miniscule, but if all are on one screen I can avoid YOU HAVE UNPLACED REINFORCEMENTS on turns when a load of them produce.
