Re: 'There was an error unpacking campaign' - SOLVED

Yes I update edited the first post to include the solution. Basically it was AVG blocking the unpacking and not providing any data or warning it was doing so. The error logs for FoG2 showed it was some kind of write error failure - which led me to think it may be some read only win 7 permissions hea...

Re: Community Content - 'There was an error unpacking campai

The permissions all seem to be set to allow. Is this a win 7 'read only' issue? What I mean't about adding community content manually is that the various community made battles / campaigns are listed as .zip downloads here on the forum in the Scenario Design section. Is there a guide for where to co...

'There was an error unpacking campaign' - SOLVED

solved - it was AVG. I switched it off for a few minutes and the content all downloaded and installed. My bad. (edited to show resolution) Hi, I can't seem to download the community content from the ingame menu system. No matter which selection I choose the download seems to progress but then comes ...

Re: Leyte - how?

Definitely get onto the first fleet still west of leyte as it will mean you can pretty much direct all your resources at the bigger fleet threat later on. I think the real danger is stopping the fleet in the top right before it gets in among the allied ships and sinks 3 for a game over. I would also...

Re: Leyte - how?

Leyte (I think) is where you find out if your core choices so far are gonna take you on through the final missions and you really need a good naval, air and land core force to swing it. For me my first priority was to send my carrier planes (and then land based aircraft) across the landmass to attac...

Re: Philippine Sea US

Bring some destroyers for this as the enemy sub action can be very nasty. A 360 point BB is still a BB and can be very useful generally (you can always upgrade it later)... Though I would recommend a 3rd carrier if you dont have 3 by now over a Battleship as this is demanding for both air to air and...

Re: US New Georgia (Operation Cartwheel)

I took a carrier with my naval points which was active throughout the game and could fill it out once the nearest airfield was taken. I sent a force to take Rendova island immediately on turn 1 (3 inf and 1 arty) and upgraded the arty to an additional long tom once the island was taken. Agreed it is...

Re: US New Georgia (Operation Cartwheel)

Well without wanting to give too much away... I would say definitely pay attention to the objectives given and suggested. It's an interesting scenario with very limited naval presence (I think you get 6 points of Naval) so very much an air and army mission. Despite the generous turn limit of 55 you ...

Re: Midway USA advice please

You will most likely run into Japanese CAP as well as their ship AA on your first run in on their carriers - I lost a bomber on that run. Your own fighters will need to be split among running your own CAP for your carriers as well as escorting your bombers. If you keep your own carriers back and out...

Re: Midway USA advice please

I would say you are missing 2 torpedo bomber planes... they do good damage against larger ships such as carriers. You have to stop the invasion fleet as an important objective. Use the destroyer screen you are given and if you advance too far past that you may activate a more aggressive Japanese nav...

Re: Defending Port Moresby

This one is tricky for sure but has multiple solutions... You can either save some prestige(?) points and navy slots to bolster the small fleet that arrives in the western setup sector around turn 8 or 9. That way you can take the enemy fleet on directly or you can scramble to the south and south ea...

Hi there, thanks for getting back single player as I am assuming the forced reboot before being able to complete the close window will negatively affect multiplayer as when I get back into the game I get a restore option to a previous save on that scenario (final turn) so it knows an error has occur...
