Hi

after playing the game a few hours i must say it is a really nice game. I had low expectations after playing the alpha demo but because of the strong Euro i buyed it. And i have not regret it. Sure it is far from being perfect at the moment but i am sure you will be improving it in the future. But i have a few questions which someone of you can maybe answer.

- How can i move a Fleet around Africa to Egypt?

- Are partisans in Russia included?

- How can i starve out Britain with my submarines? Britain has no resource convoys running

- Can i move the troops of my allies after they join my alliance even when i not make the country human controlled at the start of a scenario?


Thanks
Frank

Is the AI any good? This game came out as a suprise (nice one at that) - I didnt even know it existed until today.  

I haven´t played enough to judge if the ai is good or not. But in the preference screen there is a option to choose the AI Thread Priority. I don´t know what this mean.

- How can i move a Fleet around Africa to Egypt?

Currently there is no mechanism to do this. You have to capture Gibraltar to move the fleet to Mediterraean sea.

- Are partisans in Russia included?

No, but this is actually nice idea, it can be modelled with an event. (Same for Yugoslavian partisans). Expect this in next patch

- How can i starve out Britain with my submarines? Britain has no resource convoys running

You're right, currently there aren't any resource convoys to Great Britain, but again, we'll add Lend-lease events and make GB and USSR more dependent on convoys.

- Can i move the troops of my allies after they join my alliance even when i not make the country human controlled at the start of a scenario?

You can't. However, you can press F1 and this will open a 'cheat' dialog that alows changing between human/AI control for each country. It also allows editing current PP and DP for each country

greetings, thanks for the info, i was not at knowledge about the cheat trick, i think when/if pbem and tcp/ip is implemented this optional must be optional or may discourage multiplayer play, aside this, it is a good enhancement,

best regards,
