Returning to WITW

Gary Grigsby’s War in the West 1943-45 is the most ambitious and detailed computer wargame on the Western Front of World War II ever made. Starting with the Summer 1943 invasions of Sicily and Italy and proceeding through the invasions of France and the drive into Germany, War in the West brings you all the Allied campaigns in Western Europe and the capability to re-fight the Western Front according to your plan.

Returning to WITW

Post by DTomato »

Returning to WITW after three years. Trying to catch up with the latest version, and trying to remember all the little tips and tricks I used to know.

So, a few questions:

* How does weather impact recon altitude? Do I need to send the recon planes lower than 36,000 feet if the weather isn't clear?

* HI, Manpower and Oil gives strat bombing victory points? But I seem to remember that Railyards are the best strat bombing target because they paralyze the German economy?

* What's the best way to have one mission follow the flight path of another mission (thinking Air Superiority accompanying Bombing Mission)? Put them under the same command and use the same staging base?

* Any tricks for maximizing Amphibious and Airborne prep points, and minimizing prep time?
