Thanks Sea Monkey.
-
With regard to editing the tech upgrades on various units, is it possible to have varying increases in ranges and attack values - what I want to do is create the option that at level 5 tech for subs and warships can launch missile attacks at other warships or land targets.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German,which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted
to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of
the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.
By the 4th yer peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th"
with "z and "w" with "v".
During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from words kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech
oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.
Zen ve vil rul ze world!!!

Good guidelines - I have never sent enough force to maintain my invasions - if I play Curry or Friendly Fire I have usually managed to lose most of my fleet and playing Rannug I usually encounter 8 airfleets.
I have been reading the AAR's by the legends to try and improve my game.

Yes got it yesterday at 18:00 Zulu.
I think there was some problems because I didnt get any replies to the turns I sent out Tuesday except yours.
Any suggestions on resurrecting my now stalled Western Offensive?

Two weeks in France has scrambled my memory - I sent you wrong turn.

July 28th, 1940
Its showtime
Luftflotte I based near Hamburg reach out and touch French Army SE of Brussels – RAF interceptors come out to play.
2 more Luftwaffe airfleets bomd same French Army and again the RAF join the party – sod this OK 10th Army rolls into Belgium and takes a pop at the Frenchies – who get hammered down to 30% strength.
The airfleet at Essen bombs the 3rd French army which is just South of the heavily bombed French Army.
Luftflotte IV bombs 3rd FA
Munich based airfleet bombs 3rd FA, followed by 14th Army batters 3rd FA down to 60% strength.
XVI Panzer fires up those Maybachs and clatters into that French Army SE of Brussels, reducing it down to 20% - 8th Army hits same French Army but with no bloody effect.
Meanwhile German Corps skirmish all along the Maginot line.
-
I must apologise for the boring game so far but all of my 88mm shells are polished my Panzer IV's have a new lick of paint, the Luftwaffe is in good shape - so next turn the Wermacht will be rolling.
Will it be Shock and Awe or Awe Shucks?
-
Next Turn - forgot to note date
Axis forces occupy Oslo and prepare to wipe out British Corp in Bergen. Otherwise German forces are quiet.
-
I dont post much but yeah I would be in to that.
-
OK Zis time no more mister nice guy!
Oslo gets hammered again - I think the Norwegians should chuck it pronto to avoid further bloodshed - I know that they probably wont.
The evil RN sinks one of my peace loving U-boats which was engaged in measuring the hole in Ozone layer in South Atlantic.
I am attempting a completely different approach to my strategy in this game so ..... I'll probably lose!
-
April 28th 1940
All is quiet apart from U-boats tangling with RN cruiser in South Atlantic. Will the British send a task force?

December 10th 1939
Not much happening, continuing to pound Denmark. I must have that Carlsberg brewery.

Actually you are one of a trio of players to hit me with LC gambit. That's why I thought I'd ask for help/advice from forum.
Whatever happens I enjoy playing this game.

Glad your back - my response to treacherous LC invasion will be swift (well tonight)
What dya think of the Barbarossa game?
-
OK so your Axis and youve spent too much effort and resources on Poland its now turn 2 or 3 and you still havent taken Denmark. In the meantime those evil Allied dudes have invaded Belgium and Holland, got the plunder and say for arguments sake with the fierce air battles managed to get Luftwaffe down to 2 understrength airfleets and the RN is ramnpaging around the Baltic......Help!
I need advice, counselling, rehab' do any of the legends of SC have any suggestions about resolving the deadlock preferably in my favour?
-
Kuniworth - No I dont want to slag anyone off because I am playing some of these guys.
And I respect other peoples views. Honest.

This was better than the atom bomb thread or the I hate tiles thread over on SCII. LOL

October 1st 1939
Axis Turn 2
German army had sliced through Poles like a knife through butter. The valiant Poles manage to surround XVI Pz Gruppe and in a series of violent counterattacks and at severe loss to themselves hammer the isolated panzers down to 30% strength.
10th and 14th Armies are tasked to extracate their unfortunate armoured colleages.
In North VII corps leaves Konigsberg and attacks the Polish Modlin corps to SE.
3rd army assaults Warsaw garrison in support of XIX panzer, the garrison is wiped out and XIX panzer drives into Warsaw in triumph and destroys remnants of Polish airforce to E of city.
4th army proceed through gap between VII corps and XIX panzer to inflict further losses on Modlin corps
The rescue operation in the South for XVI panzer goes well, the capture of Warsaw means that XVI is not longer cut off. 10th army hits Lodz group from South and wipes it out. 14th army takes up position adjacent XVI panzer and attacks Poznan corps from South, 8th army moves SE and attacks Poznan corps, who are down to 10% strength – Luflotte IV administers the coup de grace.
Poland surrenders and XVI Panzergruppen withdraws West to refit.
In the West things are quiet, Denmark continues to be shelled by Kreigsmarine and ariel recon reveals French army has garrisoned the Franco Belgian border.
Judging by the 420 MPP’s that the French have stockpiled the breakers yards are full of deccomissioned French warships?

February (made me shiver, bad news on the doorstep, I could not take one more step) 7th 1943
That's it my Swedish friend has prevailed!
USSR is overrun - 2 cities left and the West is heavily defended, Ikes boys are going nowhere. In game terms the Reich can out-produce the Allies....sorry JJR!

-good man, excellent opponent, I wonder if we can do over a hundred posts in our next AAR. LOL

Oh and congrats on your soccer result!

November 11th (Armistice Day) 1942
“Germans ‘undreds of ‘em”
Build up of bridgehead in Normandy continues.
In East 2 Nazi units are wiped out in desparate counter attacks.
Next turn all hell is going to break loose!
-
October 18th 1942
The Russians are getting a kicking!
In the West some good things have happened. German Cruiser force engaged by HMS Nelson TF and with a little help from Bomber Command sent them to the bottom NE of Jutland peninsula, although recon spotted U47 lurking nearby.
In another success against the Kriegsmarine, Allied air sank another German Cruiser force, that was presumably enroute to interdict our landings in Normandy.
Assault and Lodgement!
Allied ground forces establish their bridgehead and occupy Brest, who’s defenders broke under the massive Naval bombardment – now we have a viable port. But like you said, if my invasion fails well its....
In the East things are pretty grim, the Red Army is being destroyed by the relentless Axis warmachine.
In a counterattack in the vast forests NW of Moscow the 1st Guards Tank Army and other formations wipe out a German Army, but I doubt if this has bought any respite against such an onslaught.
Allied pilots have encountered high performance Lufwaffe units and it is now believed that German jet aircraft technology has pushed back the limits of aircraft technology.

You could edit the rocket units specs using the editor - so you could increase the range or power or number of strikes that the rockets could make. Unfortunately the increases in range and power are incremental, so you would need to decide what increase per tech level you wanted. I think the rocket range increment is 2 per level and hit is 1 per level.
Cheers
