Re: What are you cooking ?

I would definitely buy an Allied Atlantic campaign. Kriegsmarine was fun, but wildly ahistorical. The submarine mechanics could indeed use improvement, though.

Re: Quick question

The 17cm K 18 outranges every artillery unit in the game, except for the Krupp railway gun. The incredible range far outweighed the one extra damage of the 21cm, in my opinion. Enemy artillery will be helpless.

Re: Can someone explain how efficiency work for non ground units?

Aircraft have lower efficiency when they take off, but it goes away the next turn. The "Scrambling" specialization reduces it for fighters, IIRC.

The Battle of Samar is one of the bravest things I have ever read about, ever. Heroes all.

Re: Fold3: 80th Anniversary of the Battle of Midway

If you haven't seen it the movie Midway is a great film, dramatizing the battle, as well as the events leading up to it. I would describe it as a classic war film, but with modern special effects.

Re: Order of Battle Would be Awesome in WWI Setting

To End All Wars in a good WWI game, although at a much bigger scale than OOB.

Re: Is the game winding down?

I'd like a Royal Navy/Allied Atlantic naval campaign. Like Kriegsmarine, but as the Allies, and no fantastically a-historical scenarios.

Re: Submarine/Naval warfare

In my experience, unmoved destroyers do perform an automatic sonar sweep at the end of the turn. However, since it's the end of the turn, there's no chance to attack the submarine. It just lets you know there's one around. What I find frustrating is that destroyers can't do the sonar sweep after mov...

Re: "Who's Kelly? Well he used to be a Lieutenant until he attacked the wrong hill" Allies Resurgent no discussion threa

American and British airborne troops? I used 2 US Airborne, 1 British Paras, and 1 SAS for the Sicily Landings. Very helpful for getting those secondaries in time. Some large battles are good tho, but i prefer adding some specs ops/pure naval/air combat missions to the line too. I'd prefer a whole ...

I just looked in the Unit Navigator, and there are no Canadian Engineers 42! And Canadian Engineers 43 aren't available until 11/30/1943. Did they forget to create them, or is there a specific reason for the lack of engineers?

I agree that they are strangely worded at times. Also, it appears that a British officer is giving the US briefings.

The objectives weren't clear on the second one, the instructions made me think I was to sit tight and wait for orders to pursue the secondary objectives. I also found that confusing. Is finishing the secondary objectives a primary objective? Will there be a prompt to advance to take them? I decided...

Does one faction's specializations effects units of the other factions? For instance, will metal detectors only be for British Engineers, or all Allied Engineers?

Re: Order of Battle Would be Awesome in WWI Setting

WWI fractured four empires, and remade the map of Europe into (mostly) the modern one. It's a somewhat overlooked conflict, I think, due to it not at all being the "War to End All Wars." I think OOB would need a lot of changes to properly model that conflict. Some of the features could be ...
