I set them to..... minus 60 days! No plus... If only. You could check by opening the preferences screen, I think [:'(].
This gives me an opportunity to say that I think a lot of HRs are the product of laziness, mostly on the part of the Japanese player. Like no strat bombing until '43, or only in certain areas. Don't want to get strat bombed? Do something to prevent it. The only rule I've considered is something about a max altitude (dogfights with prop engines at 35k feet? Heh.), but when you're playing with no other rules it feels silly to play with just one... Better to just work around the game engine entirely at that point.
I'm going for the record on maxed nested quotes. [:)]
See what fun settings can be? [:)] I hope you re-set them. But if you didn't, I assume you did. Infinite regression. Mirror-world!
Let me add here, for the record and for the peanut gallery, Lokasenna is pressing me all over the map. I may come to regret my cavalier attitude, especially on R&D. Auto-victory is certainly not off the table for him at all in mid-Feb. 1942. If he gets it we'll stop, I'll shake his virtual hand, and we'll see about another match. If he doesn't get it we'll play on and things will improve for me OOB-wise. So far there hasn't been one email whine from either of us and the game is booming along and is a lot of fun. FUN.
And no CPA-in-the-Pacific every turn as I consult my clipboard of HRs and examine each and every unit for a red card.
You mean February 1943? Because we're halfway through February 1942 already, and I don't think I can go from 1.1:1 VPs to 4:1 in just 2 weeks of game time. I'm not as optimistic about my February 1943 VP ratio, but a lot can happen in '42 I guess... We'll see! Even if I did reach supposed AV, I wouldn't see the war as over - just with a bigger cushion [;)]. Though I think I need to go look up VP values now, and see just where my total would be sitting if I can get to my perimeter goals...
I've seen more nested comments, but not on this board.
I mean on 1/1/43. Yes, there's time and you have a long way to go, but you have a very good start. You need to exploit what you've started. A lot of AV is building the bases, not necessarily taking more of them.
