I have seen many players with a completely unbalanced unit type composition (too many battleships, too much artillery etc). So I would just like to get everybody's opinion on what the perfect unit balance is, that just feels natural. This is mine.

6 infantry
2 heavy infantry
2 engineer

How exactly does this stat work?

I know it affects Efficiency, but its value ranges from 10 to 25 (I think I've even seen 5, but never more than 25), so how does that number translate into the actual reduction of Efficiency?

For example, a strategic bomber with a Shock value of 25 is supposed to ...

Could anyone explain why I could not spawn fighter aircraft at this airfield but could spawn reconnaissance aircraft there? Is it because the airfield has already allocated 9 supplies to maintain the 3 G3M bombers in the air, and the remaining 1 supply is not enough to get another 3-supply-costing ...

but these are classes. not individual units. Are you sure those numbers are those large ship/small ship etc stats? Because why would whole classes have those?

I assume that this is the order in which the types of variables are displayed, not the values of the variables


ah that makes sense ...

Hi guys, could someone tell me what each of the numbers under "stats" stands for? Many thanks


It's the actual "stats" of units and how they will be displayed in the bottom UI.

Ships have stats like "naval small/large attack/defense", ground troops "infantry/vehicle attack/defense" and air ...

So since our first tournament was taking far too long, we decided to do another small, quick tournament only for players who can make at least 1 move per day on average. And here are the results!!!

FORMAT
- like Champions' League: Everybody plays everybody else twice


MAPS
- each player can choose one map or both players agree on one map together
- only the original maps, that have 15-20 turns and are 50/50 fully balanced (e.g. GI's vs Bersaglieri, Wake Island Assault, Operation Cobra etc ...

Yes thanks.
But I can't figure out what they actually mean

version 4.8

reduced the number of planes for the first 15 turns, just like I was done with ships previously. This is to create the opportunity for a nice landing and maybe a battle of Savo Island without too much inteference from planes

reduced the maximum number of fighters to 4. I.e. 8 planes ...

My favorite Campaign is the Japanese Rising Sun.
I feel like a player-made Campaign or a DLC (Pacific Domination) to follow-up the original game would be fascinating and enjoyable.
Suggested scenarios:
- MIdway Redux
- Aleutian Expanse
- Eastern Redoubt (Conquest of the Hawaiian Islands)
As I ...

In version 2.0

- allied ships that come near Cherbourg and the Cote d'Albatre before they are under allied control will be sunk automatically (to simulate hidden mines and force players to land on the neighbouring beaches first and conquer the two locations by land. This will give Germany two ...

I hosted the unit navigator tool here:
https://worldwar2.ro/game

The Unit Navigator is amazing Dragos! Let us know how we can support it if you need that!

Yeah. Imagine if everybody pays once 5 USD or something, we can probably cover the expenses for 10-20 years

just posting again to keep it on the top for new players

In v.1.2

- added some railways for German reinforcements
- finetuned the reinforcement mechanics for Germany
- made it impossible to invade Cherbourg and the Cote d'Albatre by sea. Now the allies have to land on the beaches, and advance onto the port at Cherboug and the airfield on the Cote d ...

5.8

Tried to make the hills near El Alamein more defensible, because until now the axis was always able to smash through too fast.

Thanks to Darkvador for testing!

v 1.3
Fixed the air supply thing.

Thanks to Jaydent and Vonking for testing

If a game you have hosted appears in red, it seems there are 3 reasons for that.

If it's one of the original maps created by the developers, you need to make sure you have hosted the game with the gold star in the front. Not a silver star.
