Welshwill Posted September 12, 2002 Share Posted September 12, 2002 The consequences of the Germans surrounding Moscow i.e. unable to purchase additional units or supply current units. Is this an intentional part of the game or an oversight in the design? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohan Posted September 12, 2002 Share Posted September 12, 2002 Are you using the 1.04 patch? The original game had this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are both using the V1.04 patch. The only place that I can position a new unit is Moscow, which is surrounded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted September 12, 2002 Share Posted September 12, 2002 This will be addressed in a future patch. The idea I am going with is to adjust the USSR with a *quasi three capital* system in terms of supply and production purposes. So Moscow, Sverdlovsk and Stalingrad will all act as *roots of the tree* similar to how a single capital works now. This should at least make it more interesting for the eastern front.

A day or two ago I had a similar thought on a larger scale. I was thinking of 4 capitals for Russia, I think Leningrad falls too easily and could/should also be a capital - that thousand-day-seige-thing doesn't happen in SC! Also, there is a tradition in East-front board games of the victory condition over Russia being capture of Leningrad, Moscow, and Stalingrad. But my thoughts extended the idea further. First I thought about England where making London and Manchester co-capitals would not matter much, but adding Alexandria would sure open up Africa. As a counterbalance, Italian capitals could be both Rome and Tripoli. Lastly, for good measure, Germany could add Munich and/or Prague. Anyway, this would all a require serious play-balancing effort and so might not be feasible. But I strongly encourage your efforts on the Eastern Front. Thanks for all your good work.
