  1. Is there any capability to use apple computers for this game? Any plans for IPad use for the game? Just wondering.
  2. I don't see any drawback for the allied player doing the bases for destroyers swap, am I missing something here? Since there seems to be only one or two units in the British Sudan. Why should I spend the MPP's to max out the HQ's unit there? Can this HQ be used to command other British or commonwealth units, this doesn't seem to be the case? It would seem to me that doing at least one research level for industrial output would make sense for Japan or Britain. Even though there are a limited amount of factories within each of these countries. The extra output over most of the game would out weigh the cost. Am I right on this?
  3. Doesn't Singapore's activation provide additional MPP's? If so the investment would pay for itself with MPP's and Corps that is based there. Thanks for all the Forum comments.
  4. So the game manual doesn't explain what the pros and cons are for the British to expand the port and defenses of Singapore? What do the allies gain by doing this other than Singapore joins the allies in 1940? Of course, this costs the British 50 MPPs for I think four turns. Thoughts from the Forum?
  5. Looking for PBEM opponent. Should have time for one turn or so a day. I can be reached at smckechnie@aol.com. Let me know what campaign and side that you would like to play. Scott
  6. Seems like sometimes the % shows up and sometimes it doesn't when I put the mouse on the research field.
  7. I am actually trying to mass my forces to invade Russia without causing the massing of troops to increase the Russian mobilization. I think that too many troops does increase the Russian mobilization and was wondering what triggers the increase in mob.
  8. I know that if you put too many trips on the eastern front, it will cause Russia to start mobilizing faster. How exactly is this triggered? I just got a notification to increase my garrison on the eastern front.
  9. How do you see what percent you are on a research area?
  10. I am unclear on the new rules on research under the Gold version of this game. Is there now a certain guaranteed amount of research advances that you will get if you invest in a particular research category? Or is just based on the percentages?
  11. So should the Axis sub just forgo using silent mode, since an opponent will eventually find the sub?
  12. So my understanding is that under the gold version a sub will only be identified 50% of the time if the sub is in Silent mode. So what is to keep an opponent from sweeping the area a few times and eventually finding a sub based on the 50% probability? So if an opponent finds a sub on a convoy route. On subsequent turns, since he/she knows the vicinity of the sub could sweep the ocean repeatedly until one sweep finds the sub again. I am assuming that this how this works?
  13. How do make a unit conduct a forced march?
  14. I wish the manual would have said something about that, as having a unit in the French Fort would be really bad in regards to getting the US in the war sooner.
  15. The supply situation for the Axis in Africa is so bad that unless you take Malta, it doesn't appear to make any sense to send Axis forces to Africa. The British start off the war with 1 in Anti aircraft, under this new Gold game the AA guns seem to have too much of an edge against aircraft. Should the Axis still go after taking Malta with this new Gold version? We also have the added effect that the allied unit could upgrade the unit AA. This would seem to make it very costly to try to take Malta. Thoughts from the Forum.
  16. I was under the impression that in addition to the Carrier and cruiser that German gets from occupying the French Fort. Germany would also receive 240 MPP's for two turns? So in playing the axis, Germany gets the ships, but doesn't get the Gold (240 over 2 turns)? Is there something else that the Axis has to do to get the Gold. The manual seems to say that Germany should get the Gold? Any experience with this in the Forum?
  17. I am looking for an opponent to play SCGC gold with the recent patch. I haven't played the gold version of this game that much, but I have played the other version a number of times. Email me at smckechnie@aol.com to figure out which scenario and which side that you would like to play.
  18. Let me know if you still are looking for an opponent. I could play probably one turn a day by PBEM. Scott
  19. I have been playing SC games for several years now, but wanted to ask the forum some questions to help me become a better player. 1. If you increase the industrial power of England or Japan, does that translate to all of the colonies and conquered territories? Or does it apply just to the production of cities within the home country? 2. Overall is it better to concentrate some assets in developing elite units or is it better to have more units? 3. When defending Russia, is it better to just vacate the border cities or fight for every city? I know this kinda of depends on how soon the Axis player attacks Russia, but it would seem to me that you would conserve some assets by positioning units further back. 4. With the new map for SC Global Conflict, it is much more difficult, in my opinion, to launch an operation Sea Lion. If you try to execute a Sea Lion operation, what is the best way to approach it? Scott
  20. Ok, I have the game loaded on two computers. The other computer doesn't have any problem reinforcing the aircraft carrier air wings. Not sure why, but I can continue playing on the other computer.
  21. I checked with my opponent and it looks like he can reinforce his carrier air wings. Should I try to reload my last upgrade of the game?
  22. I still have not been able to reinforce my aircraft on Japanese carriers during the summer of 1943. In fact, in another game in which I am playing the allies. I have been having a hard time reinforcing a British carrier which is in an English port (10 strength). Is there any specific mode that the carriers should be in in order to be reinforced or is this a computer glitch? Or something else that I should check? I have not moved the carriers before trying to reinforce them.
  23. I am playing the High Tide scenarios against a opponent and I cannot reinforce my aircraft carriers with planes. Is there something in the scenario that does this? Even when I have sent an aircraft carrier to Japan it still cannot strengthen aircraft on the carrier.
