Thanks retributar, looks good. (as always ) Just took a break from my finals. Haven't spent any time on my mod for a few days. I only have 1 week after school te'll I go on a 2 week vacation, so i'l try and put a lot of effort into it that week. Thanks again!

Those look cool. Great links. If anyone made this mod, i'd be so happy.

Looking good, but torch seems impossible with that huge ocean.

Maybe it can be scripted so that if, France actually survives, USSR wont join te'll it surrenders or until like 1943.

Why shouldn't the French have a chance of delaying there downfall? Heck, if they had greater morale, better leaders, and a greater military doctrine, I believe the allies couldve halted them just like WW1.

In my Game versus AxisGeneral, when it said US and USSR whatever to axis agression in Egypt, they only rose by 8%. Prior to the 1.02 patch, it rose by like 20. I remember USSR jumped from like 48 to 74.

So the whole year the germans have from the fall of France to Barbarossa isn't enough? Seems enough ith the people i play with.

Ok, maybe the USA needs to be stronger, but how can this be represented in the game without ruining play balance? Lets here your thoughts Rambo.

Anyone forgetting that the US starts with 2 armies? So if you build 4 more thats 6 armies, thats good enough for me. The USA shouldn't have to do all the heavy fighting, thats Russia. 6 armies, 2 tank groups, and a paratrooper are enough to attack france i believe. And whats so bad about using corps? They rock! And don't forget that the Americans didn't do d-day alone, d-day should be coordinated with british, and heck, even maybe Canadian units. (if you want )

You know what's funny? 36,000 British and Australian troops were able to push 250,000 Italian troops across Libya.

Thats right, its all about game balance. If the USA was able to produce as much as it did historically, then the game would be broken and unbalanced.

I meant the UK was going to invade Italy, not Libya. The british needed Libya as a base to invade Italy, so the Germans sent units to prevent it's downfall and an early surrender of Italy. All the british needed to do was land in sicily in early 1942, and the Italians may have surrendered.

Well, the Germans landed to save Italy from losing it's colony. And if Libya was lost in 1941, the Germans would have to garrison southern italy, or leave it to the Italians. If the Germans conquered Egypt, they could have pushed to the middle east. And then Maybe have conquered Malta and Gibraltar, wiping out the British presence in the med.

You've never played me. You only played me once, and that was until Winter 1939. I doubt you can say i suck when you only played me for 3 turns.

Youre probably not going to get 1 more person to help your cause... sorry to drop the bomb on you, but someone had to.

I like it! Its catchy!

Well mainy its Cairo, (10 mpp's) Alexandria, (5 mpp's) and Amman. (5 mpp's) Which calculate up to 20 mpp's. And the best thing from the convoy here, weather doesn't affect it! Let me ask you this Rambo, would you rather have the UK sending convoys there, or the other way around?

Oh god... is all you do play the game, check the USA out, and then come in here and tell us? It's pretty easy for me to be able to Launch a strong D-Day in late 1943, with THOSE 4 armies, a paratrooper, a HQ, and another HQ with 2 fighters and a bomber in britian, all with good tech. Rambo, maybe you should have the UK coordinate D-Day with the Americans. Do you even do that? [ June 17, 2006, 08:59 AM: Message edited by: Fartknock3r ]

Here we go again.....

Every country has something that they need from other countries. And maybe that's what Spain is for Germany. UK- Without convoys, the UK economy is pretty limited. (Once iceland joins, its something like 40 mpp's) USA- The USA is a sitting duck if you occupy the british isles, unless you have good amphib range and are able to launch an offensive somewhere, which is more diffucult then launching 1 turn invasions from the British Isles. USSR- The USSR is pinned down for 2 years, and sometimes it cant take the Pressure. Thats where the USA and the UK begin. Open up a front somewhere, do a bombing campaign, although the USSR is the "Major Power" of the Allies, It cant Survive on its own. Italy- Well not to much on Italy, maybe italy's the one depending on luck, hoping to not be hit by the Malta effect. Germany- Well i think Germany depends on itself. But people go into Spain because it gives you a pretty good military and the ability to capture Portugal and Gibraltar. If you don't like it, to bad. Counter it. Or prepare in invasion or something to make them regret getting Spain into the war. Can Majors send convoys to Minors? Maybe if/when Spain Joins the axis side through diplomacy, Germany has to give a small portion to represent what Franco wanted. (Grains,ammunition, fuel)

I like the current reasearch system. Is that bad? I love how luck determines research, it prevents your ability to be sure about something.

This game ever going to end?

Well since there is a counter to it i dont see how it can be a joke...

Good idea. I'll try and use it for my Pacific Mod.

Maybe Italy should surrender when you take a city and have 3 or more units on the mainland.
