You're welcome! I guess anyone starting a game as axis on this mod should read carefully Iron Ranger's strategies.

Is it Kuni framing me? Trying to solve some unfinished business between him and Rambo through me?

I kindly asked Kuniworth today on ICQ why he started 2 topics about me, as I read them only today. As I said, I am not mad at you. You are at me. You are threathening and insulting me for stuff I did not do. 2 more on the list: worthless, weak... How many insults must someone give to a customer to receive a warning from the moderators here? Legend or not...

BioWaste, insane, stupid frenchie,... keep them coming. You are so delicate, educated and thoughtful. You won't succeed in me insulting you, but I now really feel like it. Never talked before today to Kuniworth. [ March 07, 2007, 05:05 PM: Message edited by: BioWizard ]

Well, you said you would do (witness: Kuni) Well, I told you I got offended by you and simply asked for you to stop writing me and sending me stuff. Is it out of line? Here is a copy/paste of what Kuni told me: "he said you also ccalled him a faggot that was penetrated up the chocolate alley by TaoJah He just told me this, if he is a lier then Im sorry I dont know you all I did was state what Rambo said to me and we known eachother for like 5 years on the bf forum. Im sorry if I offended you and it was not true He also stated you wanted to have a threesome with him and his wife in a church" My "happy buddy" who started the 2 topics said he did so for defending you against me. I learned through him that you were complaining about me insulting you. Well, you asked for a public apology for nothing I've done.

Recently, there were 2 topics (closed by Hubert, Thank you) regarding how BioWizard insulted strongly Rambo. After reading those topics, I had a chat with Rambo and Kuniworth on ICQ and told them I had never insulted Rambo. Rambo told me he received threatening Emails from an hotmail account (something like biowizard1234@hotmail.com) containing those insults and threats. I strongly deny being responsible for these. As a very intelligent person, I would never have used my own nickname in the address of an Email supposed to be anonymous. Rambo does not believe me and is starting to call me openly "stupid frenchie". As a catholic, all I will do is expose the other cheek... Also, he is threatening me to flood my real personal Email address (I had a pbem with him once) with junk unless I start specifically a topic on the Battlefront forum saying my apologies to him. This is my answer: I will never apologize for something I am not responsible for. This is very annoying. I enjoy SC2 a lot and most of the people I talked to from the Battlefront forum are very nice. Rambo: You don't believe me? That's up to you. p.s. The guy who framed me did not know you had access to my personal Email. Who's supposed to apologize now?

Someone commenting on this mod said it favored the allies. I think it was because the guy playing the axis against him did not played it as good as he could. The biggest game flaws in favor of axis is that Turkey can be taken so easily, that Sweden joins Germany when Turkey surrenders, that Iraq (even if UK has a diplo hit on them) will join freely Germany when Syria is taken (so easy with a strength 8 corps) and that all those middle East oil field jump to 80 or 100% efficiency. By only one summer of fighting, Axis was having more then 800 mpps per turn, which is as much as the Allies, who are supposed to be outproducing them. Also, it already had more units, were fully mobile (operatable from Norway, to Odessa, to France or Tunis) at supply 10 everywhere. Generally the idea of giving a lot of low strength units is a good idea, especially to Italy. But, to very strategic and important countries as Turkey, Spain and Sweden, I would advise better positioning of units and higher strength to some units. i.e. There's no way that Germany could have made capitulate Turkey in one week per example. Can the maximum number of medals a unit can get be adjusted? It would help the aircraft superiority problem we encounter in this mod. A lot of potential with this mod. Could be superior to Fall Weiss but still needs a lot of play testing and adjustments. Anyway, another glorious victory of Iron Ranger over me! Congratulations...

No point in giving up that earlyin my opinion. Unless Poles fight on until 1940 and Russia starts being very impatient,

Kuni, one paratroop to start with in Russia.

August 31th 1941 All hell breaks loose in Turkey. German Level3 paratroops take the Turkish capital immediately. All other towns are either damaged by shore bombardment (to prevent Russian reinforcements), or invaded. Turkish troops don't yet surrender but it is only a question of time. Sweden turns axis through diplo action. IR got lucky there with all the counter chits I put in there. Axis subs still raid Canadian convoy I wonder what will be the Axis revenues per turn when Africa is at supply 8-10 with all the oil there. p.s. Wow! As I told you Thrawn, there is a problem with the Turkish troops at the Far East. None of them can move! Worst then that, with only 2 paratroopers (Germany has 3 to start with, and bought one apparently) and one airplane, you get the capital Ankara in one turn! Can you imagine that! It took 3 turns for IR to take the Low countries in comparison. Turkish units disposition needs be adapted! Also, how comes Germany starts with 3 paratroops while the Western Allies has only one (very far in the production queue)?

August 17th Russia really feels all alone... Leningrad surrounded by Germans and yet was kept at supply 10... (bug?). It was captured anyway after 7 air attacks. Axis high command sent 4 poor minor aircrafts first to remove entrenchment and take most of the damage first, then leaving the kill to German aces. The taking of Leningrad probably gives full supply to both Finland and Norway... Germany now rules the whole Baltic Sea with the kill of the last remaining Russian ships left to rot there since the beginning of the war, without any reinforcements by Stalin. Tunisia finally taken by a German corps, after some Italian and German air support. Diplomatic hit on Morocco (around 77%). UK still raids Norway convoy.

little update, august 1941 Royal Navy sinks 3 German BB, 4 CA and 4 sub in total. My guees is that the German navy won't go anymore as close to the UK as it did! Germans subs start raiding USSR convoy; safer from RN and closer to Norway. UK conquers Ireland with 4 air attacks, trying to help a little the Russian's morale. Axis get diplo hits on both Spain and Sweden, both around 60%... Italians mess up and fail to take Tunisia in one turn, even with 2 level 3 armies, which are now at supply 0 and the Tunisian corps constantly reinforced by US money. Iraq joined Axis after Dow of Syria, threathened by 6 Italian corps. Russian boats spot a Romanian amphib corps in the Black Sea close to the turkish shores. Is Iron Ranger planning to take Turkey in one turn with his 3 paratroopers? A lone Russian corps gets back the 2 Russian mines near Romania but is soon killed the next turn by a huge German army with some level 3 tanks that was hiding out of sight and is now closing on heavily fortified Kharkov. Perhaps a combined huge land assault on this heavily fortified place is planned to happen on the coming morale boosts of some minors taking? Finnish troops move North and cut off Murmansk at supply 5, but still receiving the deeply-needed US Lend-lease.

Nope, it's not because of that and you know it! Otherwise, US soldiers would be in Darfur right now.

It works only for Western Allies (They control South Africa and other supply zones down there).

I'm quite glad I can put some despair into this worthy ennemy! For the partisan issue, these towns will never generate partisans: Tallin, Riga, Vilnius, Kalinin, Stalingrad (weird for Stalingrad) These are the only 7 seven tiles that will generate partisans outside cities: 183,33 and 187,30 (Marsh between Minsk and Kiev) 197,27 (Forest South of Smolensko) 182,21 (Forest South-West of Leningrad) 188,20 (Forest South of Leningrad) 178,5 (Forest South of Murmansk) too bad supply for you I guess to go there! 191,10 (Forest South of Archangel) too bad supply for you I guess to go there! More then that, axis in this scenario has something like 40 minors units perfect for garrison duty. -I agree with the spotting of subs that should be of one. -Spotting of aircrafts right now is 6, I think it's fair on that scale. -Paras strike range of 7 is a good idea! For the UK CVs, most were supply 3-5. They are much needed to counter Axis subs and are sunk so very easily as you clearly demonstrated. -Too bad we can't change the base% of a tech chit, lower maximum research is a good idea (900?). For Supply in Russia, it's a huge dilemma on that scale. Germans needs to be disadvantaged over Russians regarding supply! You can have supply of 8 though for Germany in Russia. You need to count tiles, not progress too fast and know how to prevent partisans from appearing. So, maximum level %efficiency of cities needs to be 5! My guess is that more cities, with less space separating them is a good solution? Mountains are nearly impassable with the actual movement costs. But that is supposed to be the case in Real life. To represent this in SC2 with the scale used here, maybe a new tile can be designed with an appearance of a valley? Movement cost on it would be 1 or 2, it would keep a high defense value, still look nice on the map and allow strategic movements like between Italy and France? -Can you lower the amount of experience a units gathers with the editor? Airplanes need be fixed! -The tile of the city of Baku is called Stalingrad, need be fixed. -3 German Subs scripts if Norway is Axis are fixed to happen in 1950... -One city and a mountain tile in the Urals remain clear weather during winter even if the whole Russia is frozen. -Russian transfers got to a city that was supply 0 , transferred to Stalingrad. -Stalingrad not generating partisans needs be fixed. -The Russian fortification near Germany's border is not destroyed when captured.
