WITP Question about landing on US soil
Hello Gents, I have a question here i wonder if you can help me out with.
What will be triggered by a US Invention ?
As far as I can remember it is that all land units for next 6 months will arrive instantly, what will the effect be with Aircraft and Ships, and will "new" units arrive, like "national guard" type of units ect, or only the ones already in the Deployment List ?

RE: WITP Question about landing on US soil
All Ground Reinforcements are accelerated by 6 months. So, the Allies get an instant shot from everything in the queue under 180 days, and everything else is accelerated.
Needless to say, if you playing PBEM this is an absolutely terrible idea

I seem to recall a AAR that tested this very thing.. Herbie???
RE: WITP Question about landing on US soil
Only ground units are accelerated. Everything else is the same. It's still a terrible idea in PBEM. Against the AI, though, go for it.

I think Captain America and the Justice League also show up.

Q-Ball,
Is this US units only or all Allied units?

Only Superman but he is under orders to never fly under 500 feet. He kept taking out power lines and telephone poles.
CA and JL don't show up until January of 1945.

Why is he limited to 500 feet ? And are you sure about that January date ?

FAR Part 119 sets up a 500 foot minimum except in non-populated areas . . .

Hmm, I am not sure I believe that without proof. You must be a JFB wanting to limit Superman like that. And btw, he would kick Godzillas a** anyday of the week !

RE: WITP Question about landing on US soil
Hmm, I looked up FAR 119, and there a lot of official looking words in there, so maybe you are right. But I still think it's suspicious that you want to put limits on Superman.

Hi Flying Tiger, the first movie was from Dec 41 to Nov 42, and the game is now in 1944, I have been working on a movie to cover from Nov 42 and untill nov 43, but there was so much development arround 43 so I decided to combine and extend the timeframe on it.
Im still woking on it, but this 2nd video will be covering from Nov 42 and untill nov 44, I will also combine the two via video edeting program so that the next one who will be ready now in now 44 will be the first film + a new one covering from nov 42 untill nov 44. It semes as it will be quite long, arround 1 hour or so, but it will be a compleate AAR then from Dec 41 to Dec 44, and then of course when 45 comes arround I should of course make Evan 1 more to add to the two others.. When the game eventually is over (in looong time from now) then my Goal is to have them all combined and then becoming a AAR move from Dec 41 and until xxx (games end)..

I'd be a JFB if I could ever figure out how production worked.

Yeah, but . . . how realistic is that really?
