China (allies) - scenario 6 - help.

[RangerJoe]

Well, he did state that he did a few of these scenarios and wanted more - much more. I think that he has become addicted. [;)]

The most important advise that I can give is to have fun. As the song says "Don't worry, be happy."

Thanks all. I'm going very slow. Keep coming back to it, little at a time. Not enough time outside RL, really. It's easily addictive, but I have been addicted to it for around 6 years now, in that case, and still haven't played a turn 1.... Have completed the smaller scenarios, but approaching the main game I'm wont to reach a point where I say - no, no, I can't, it's too much and it's too hard to even see!!! Then, too much to learn in a slow way, asking in here after searching uselesly in manuals and on-line. And so many questions that it's not worth asking them all. Like why do some bases in the list appear in capitals, to take one random example. But I'll figure it out eventually. When it's too much then I take the shortcut off the taskbar and have a rest. But...I keep coming back and trying again.

All your advice much appreciated.

Then here is a suggestion. Save your game along with notes on what you did. The first turn in the longest one, it then gets much quicker except for the "housekeeping" turns where you check on your training units and "harvest" your trained pilots. Once you get enough ships of the right class, you can set up convoys to run automatically, removing those that need to go into the "body and fender shop" but replacing them with those that are repaired.

Remember also, you don't have to do everything on the first turn.

As far as too hard to see, I have the computer on my chest while I am reclining on my chair. No I am not in my chair but rather, I am on my chair. [;)]

The assumption is that you know what you are doing or will somehow figure it out on your own along the way.

Worked just fine for me.

There is no substitute for learning by doing.
