  1. Thanks for the offer... its just that after playing the AI more than dozen times and playing PBEM 6-7 times. Reading all the manuals and forums for tips. I was still astounded by the min/max seen overhere. I consider myself an above average war gamer and I have a lot of experience "elsewhere"... but I suppose people here have taken SC to another level.

  2. Anyone managed to save the two subs in the North Atlantic ? They seem impossible to get to a french or german port... Also subs run out of supply very fast... seem almost impossible not to keep 'em coming back to France all the time. Brest is under British Air range and its safer to go to the southern French port... even more delay. [ June 23, 2004, 11:22 AM: Message edited by: Rashak Mani ]
  3. What about fully fledged Submarine campaigns ? Anyone managed ? Seems awfully expensive... and won't stop the URSS.
  4. hehe... I was about to ask the same thing. Especially with Units that have just done an ambhibious landing. Will they be out of supply right away or not when its my turn to attack back?
  5. Hearing veterans talk and how fast they can take down Spain or Iraq has me feeling quite inadequate as a SC player. Maybe I have played against the AI too much... but in several PBEM against a friend I think this is the first time we had time to fight over Iraq and Sweden for example. Never mind getting high tech and 6-8 planes... there simply isn't enough MPP's to go around. I simply can't see how you can get Spain, Scandinavia, Vichy, Iraq and other minors without the URSS going to war. I can only see this happening with a lot of tech, planes and HQ. Is this right ? Its all about operating planes better than your foes ? [ June 22, 2004, 04:36 PM: Message edited by: Rashak Mani ]
  6. Are the Siberians always the same ? 2 HQ + Plane + Tank and infantry ?
  7. So if I get close to Rostov it triggers the Siberian.. or if I take Rostov ? How close is the Rostov trigger ? 2 hexes or 4 like Moscow ?
  8. Thanks Terif... So when defending France whilst still pounding Russians... is it better to defend France with rookie airfleets and keep the veterans in ground attack in the steppes ? I am basically treating Russia where there is no enemy airfleets like a training ground and then I send veteran airfleets to fight in western europe. I then buy a new airfleet to help out in Russia. Should I not bother to lose experience with heavy losses in France ?
  9. Aren't you maybe hiding too much info ? After all even HQ get feedback. A 5 str unit certainly is different from a fresh 12 str unit. Experience might be wrong or a bit off ... but not completely hidden. Its strategic command... not tactical command. I venture that a lot of information was available to HQs during wars about the disposition and experience of various enemy formations. Tech Issue... is it a stable mod ? What about other aspects of Fog of War like planes ?
  10. In a Fog of War PBEM... does the Axis player get to know about the Siberian Army Transfer ? Or he gets to know about it only when he sees fresh units pounding him ?
  11. Overall in an Air duel... its better to intercept in terms of damaging enemy airfleets ? It wasn't a Carrier. (Airfleet icon appeared) Even if it were a carrier... his carriers are at most 3 stars and their readyness would be worse than a land based plane with HQ support no ?
  12. Playing Axis in a PBEM. I operated back from Russia a 3.5 Star Airfleet tech lvl 3 with a 3.5 HQ. The next turn I attacked a transport in the English Channel. I lost 5 "life" in a 10 str plane in the response. The British have at most 2 Star HQ and a 3 Star plane at Tech lvl 2 !! How can I be so severly damaged ? Readiness was 99% too ! This seems a bit absurd. After a while these planes will just lose horrendous amounts of experience !
  13. The Italian fleet seems a bit stronger than the British one in the Med... until the USA enters our games have seen the Italian dominating the Med with his remaining 2 or 3 ships. Is it usual for the Italian fleet to be wiped out ?
