Missions to Jupiter and outer planets

Hi all. When do the missions to Jupiter, Saturn, the Sun etc become available? I've just landed on the Moon as the Soviets (Normal level, 1971) and I've achieved all the Mars and Venus missions but that seems to be it.

Re: Op Typhoon as Germans

Just an update - tried the whole campaign version this time, thinking it couldn't get any worse. Wrong. An elite Panzer unit went 6 turns without scoring a single hit. Read that again - 6 turns. If I were that unit's commander I would either shoot him or send him to the Eastern Front. Since he's alr...

Op Typhoon as Germans

Has anyone, anywhere, in any time/universe, and without using magic, played Typhoon as the Axis vs the AI as Konev (!) and won? Or am I wasting my time with it and I should just go to the full campaign? It's incredibly frustrating to find a game where nothing seems to work, or even go right. It's a ...

Re: I'm looking for an opponent

I can honestly say I've never tried parallel installs on the same machine - I think there would be a Registry issue though. Re: playing speed - I'd rather be playing than not, so I am always happy to go at the speed of my opponent. I'm fortunate in that I work from home and my kids have long since l...

Re: Looking for an opponent

It's been so long since I've played anything other than 4.0, but I think the bug fixes are the biggest selling point. The Egypt surrender spawns, the disappearing naval units - all fixed. Was the extra German FTR at start a 3.0 or 4.0 feature? I didn't agree with the additional FTR range at start (r...

Re: I'm looking for an opponent

Excellent. 4 is better, much better! There have been many 'buggy' issues fixed. I like to play mirror games but if you only want 1 at a time I'm happy too. I'm on GMT and can usually get several turns a day in. If you're happy to go ahead just pick a side and we can start.

Re: Anyone fancy a game?

No. I gave up on that game years ago. I drew the line at the aircraft rules - I objected to having a front-line 1914-quality British corps reduced to a nervous wreck by 7 unarmed fighter units, setting it up for destruction by 2 German corps in 1 turn. Pointing out the lack of realism (a noted selli...

Finland surrenders on Barbarossa turn 2

Strange one this. PBEM, default options, Germany starts Barbarossa July 12 1941, invades, and by the end of the turn has captured Kaunas but no other Baltic States cities.. Allies turn (mine), I retreat but garrison Riga and the remaining Baltic States cities. German next turn, Finland surrenders. ?...

Re: North Africa control change

Sorry about that, I sent it in July. I think perhaps I didn't backtrack far enough to find out. I've 2 or 3 games going on right now so I'll be able to let you know one way or the other. Thanks for the effort you've put in on it.

Re: I'm looking for an opponent

Hello Trencapins2 I'm interested if you're still looking. I can play either side, standard rules. I've played 4 PBEM games (2 mirrored pairs) and I'm currently playing Allies in my 5th. Do you have the fixes for the Allied units recurring spawn after Egypt surrenders, and the Med Allied permissible ...

Re: Looking for Axis player - GS 4.0

Hallo Rtuduror, I'm interested. I normally play mirror PBEM but I'm fine just playing 1 game, as Allies. Have you got the updates that fix the Egypt surrender spawns and the no-builds-on-Med-Islands?
I have played 4 pbem games, 2 each side but a lot of hotseat. In the UK so similar time zones.

Re: I'm looking for an opponent

Hi Trencapins2 I'm happy to start mirror games with you, if you're still interested. Not sure what 'recharges' are though. Standard game - do you mean no changes to the tick boxes at the start? If so, that's fine. Do you have the Egypt surrender fix that stops the spawning of the UK units, and prohi...

Re: Looking for Axis player - GS 4.0

Hi Raptor341
Somewhat confusingly, I'm also a 'Jimbo' and I too am interested if the offer is still open.

Anyone fancy a game?

Hallo all
Anyone interested in a set of mirror games - I'm updated to the last fix, for the British Med reinforcements (now excludes Malta, Gib and Cyprus)?
