The title chosen wasn't Fantasy General: Europe at War, it was marketed as a wargame which implies some effort at a realistic simulation of the period depicted.

Now you're just being gratuitously snotty.

Actually no, I'm giving the reason why I believe the game's designers want to work in as ...

I really don't like the sound of these changes. Not at all.

It sounds to me like the squeaky wheels are getting the grease, at the cost of the original vision for the game. We have one or two people agitating for these changes. Why should they get their way at the expense of all those who are ...

I tried setting v1.03 up in a seperate file (commander europe at war v 103) so that i'd have both configurations, but the update file would only update to the original Commander Europe at war directory. Has anyone else been able to set up two game directories? If so, how did you get the installer to ...

We could drop carriers and other naval units to "ground attack 0" so that they do not inflict anything but only use shock value to reduce enemy effectiveness.

This could also mean that the D-Day would be very difficult to pull of. Vypuero has changed the scenario 1.03 beta so that one of the UK ...

We appear to have strayed off topic here. Topics at hand:

a. Naval forces didn't/ and still don't operate within range of land based airpower unless they have achieved total air superiority.
b. The effects of Naval bombardment in the game may/ or may not be excessive. This has been covered at ...

Well I can tell you this - as the Allies in some PBEM games the ships do a little bit of damage - one or two hits, soften em up, then maybe your forces who naval invaded can hurt them - that combined with some air strikes. In France, you really kill them because you can combine naval gunfire, air ...

Whether or not the U.S. had the best fire control is irrelevant. IF you have a spotter and IF you can get the enemy to stand still while a fire control solution is developed you MAY be able to hit the target you are shooting at and perhaps the US was the bast at that during the second world war. To ...

"Thanks for the feedback but we need to balance up how effective the air units are against naval units out at sea. If we make them this effective then once you have longer ranger tac air & bombers you'll probably find it too easy to destroy the enemy navy."

I think this would be accurate. The ...

I've seen some discussion on this on the Matrix site, but now that I've played some PBEM games I'll add my thoughts. I think it is too easy for Naval units to damage ground units while remaining essentially invulnerable in the game. If the Allied navies could have stood off the coast of the ...
