For us "fence sitters", is there a way to decrease the initial complexity, like starting out as a smaller country to try and survive while letting the AI handle the big boys?

No.

You can play the shorter scenarios but they use the same game code and hence have the same type of complexity.

Quite impressed with this game, reading the AARs, and with the this forum, but before committing the comming years gaming-time to this monster a few question - is the AI any good or do you have to play PBEM? - and the game is from 09, anybody knows if an updated version is on its way (don't want to invest to much time now (if I can resist[:)]...) if next years model is on its way)?

Thanks
Michael

There will very likely never be another version of this game. Too much effort for too little gain.

The AI is the AI [:)]. You really need a PBEM to get the most out of a game, but it is definitely fun to play against the AI. But if you play the Allies and fight tooth and nail for everything, then the AI can be easily 'broken'. So if you want a fairly decent game, you need to play on Hard and let Japan at least get the historical boundaries and then start fighting back.

Of course staring out you should not worry too much as just learning the game the AI is pretty good. [:)] Plus there are mods that can make it even better.

Some players who are very knowledgeable and present on the forums only play the AI and find certain games really fulfilling. There is nothing like playing another person though, and you can easily find a player who matches your needed turn rate.

This game has been modified extensively since release by several people involved with the original design. Da Big Babes team ([&o]) and michaelm ([&o]) in the tech assistance area keep us going with lots of continued improvements!

The most important feature for me is that I learn more about this era from the game and from the forum than from any possible source. Books are great, but when you actually have to make things work in game, it suddenly becomes a lot more clear.

Thanks, I think that settles it then[:)]
