Hey Larry.
Have fun, once you get the basics of SC2/WaW/PDE down it's a real blast! And the AI is a booty kicker for sure!
-
Thanks Al and JP, I've been reading the forums over there and wondering about it. It seems to me that they've got some major things to get straightened out. But I LOVE the idea of divisional scale.
Now if Hubert ever wanted to the SC2 system and scale it down.....Hmmmmm!
-
IT WORKED!!
Thanks guys!
This is the kind of GREAT support I know I'll get here at Battlefront and from Hubert!
-
Okay - here's an update. I tried starting it again and clicked ignore, then got a message saying I had to reboot the computer to update the registration for PDE, did so and the same thing is still happening!
I'm lost!
-
I'm not sure this is the right place for this - but I recently installed the new free version of AVG. Today I also installed FireFox 3.
Now I can't start PDE, I keep getting a warning from AVG saying the file is infected with a Trojan Horse Virus.
I'm not sure what to do. I click heal and nothing happens, ignore doesn't let it start either. I'm thinking of telling it remove the threat, but does that mean the file will be removed?
Any thoughts out there? I'm bummed that I can't play PDE - my favorite game!

Hey Honch,
I'm late with this but I like the idea of poison gas - and the idea of strength hits and the US and USSR reacting is good also.
I don't really think that the UK using gas would have caused Spain to join the Axis, and doubt Yugo would have either. Those options seem like a real stretch to me.
But letting them use gas is GREAT - I have no doubt Churchill would have done WHATEVER IT TOOK to defend the UK.

Interesting how research work isn't it? I've had a few games where I had jets or level 5 tanks early, but usually I end up taking the whole game and still not reaching level 5 in anything!
Luck is a funny thing!

Gdtrfb - my Dad was in Korea too - at the Chosen and past that for about a year. Lots of incredible stories about it too.
Okay Exalted Ones Who Know All Scripting Secrets! How about doing one on Korea?
-
Speaking for myself - I'm hoping someone else who knows what they are doing will make one!
-
OH well, that's the way it goes sometimes! Perhaps later it'll happen!

Xwormwood,
I played this one too, and had fun knocking the USSR our a few turns before the game ended.
I took it as a fantasy scenario given the fact the it has the US and British forces deployed wrongly in France.
I think some limits on the minor allies is a good idea, but I do think Germany ought to be able to build more armies than they have. I think the fear of the "Red Menace" would have been very motivating.
I also thought the Germans in Norway were serving the allies the same way we allowed the Japanese to remain in charge in Korea and Vietnam till our forces could get there after the war.
Your political ideas are interesting and deserve to be looked into!
-
I can't be sure mind you - but I'm very confident we're ALL mental!!
-
I like your idea!
World at War would be cool too - but I have a feeling Hubert will be giving us a complete world map and scenarios in the next expansion. I have no inside info, just a feeling I'm sure many of us share!
-
Thanks Hubert!
I'll start that one right away. The idea of a Russian invasion is just too cool to pass up. I remember the old SPI game Invasion America and am looking forward to seeing how SC PDE does with that idea!
Great game!
-
Hi All,
I've just finished my second PDE scenario, and thought I'd give a few thoughts and see what the rest of you think.
I just got a Stalemate in Stalin Drives East. It was a good game, but as the Allies I kept waiting for that huge invasion of America, and it never came.
The AI drove the Russians through France, then switched and slowly took the middle east and worked it's way across north africa. It never did take Italy, I was able to hold Rome using Italian forces only with one UK carrier adding it's support.
Can the AI do invasions? Or is this something that will have to be worked on in updates?
I'm loving the game - thanks!
-
You should be able to unload them in a port no problem, if it's owned by the Allies.
If you are trying to put them ashore without a port, you have to load them in an amphibious transport in their home port.
Hope this helps.
-
I also downloaded as soon as I got the e-mail, and it didn't take long for me either. I didn't time it but 15 minutes sounds about right.
Well done Battlefront!
-
Lars,
They both load and play fine for me. Hope you get it worked out soon!

Well I've played with the Demo a bit and have found it both frustrating and exciting.
I first tried Patton Drive East as the Allies, and in this case Patton didn't drive very far. I was frustrated by the lack of power in my air units. So I redid it as the Russian, and lost nearly ALL my units to Allied air! :mad:
Go figure!
This afternoon I played Berlin Crisis as the Allies. Wow - what a blast! I managed to hang in there and France fell on the last turn of the Demo! :eek: Whew - lots of fun here, tomorrow I hope to play it through as the Russian.
Nice work! Now if I can only get the hang of the whole airpower thing maybe I'll actually be able to win a game or two!
-
I'm downloading now baby!!!!
-
Hey SeaMonkey,
OH yeah - really sorry!!
Not really. I didn't know that paratroopers could drop in bad weather. That's interesting if I can find a way to afford them!
My main problem as the Allied player is that German air in WaW just seems to be nearly unstoppable. I know that's being talked about in another thread, and don't want to hijack this one.
But the idea of hurting the German's supply as a way to weaken and slow them down isn't something I'd given much thought too.
I'll have to play around with this and see what I can do.
Thanks!
-
Don't be shy SeaMonkey - give us some pointers! Aside from partisans who pop up on their own, how can you do it.
I'm getting pounded by all the Axis airpower and divebombers and they seem pretty unstoppable to me. If there are ways to reduce their supply and thus weaken them, I'd love to know it!
-
There's no nukes if I understand correctly.
Very nice AAR's and info guys - makes me even happier I pre-ordered, and even more eager for that download to start!!!
When available?
in Strategic Command - PACIFIC THEATER
Posted
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH - more money and time down the drain!! ;-)
Can't wait actually. I'm very curious how this will work in terms of simulating the small island battles that made up so much of the pacific. Hopefully we'll be able to do scenarios on just one island battle, like Okinawa, New Georgia, etc.
