jon_j_rambo Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Haven't read the rules to the game, nor did I read it for SC. Did something change? Russian cruisers in the Caspian Sea haven't receieved any experience for Shore Bombardmen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Shore bombardment gives only 0.05 experience, so if you choose in the options to show experience as medals instead of the exact amount, then you will not see the experience until at least 7 bombardements - nevertheless ships still collect (a bit) experience.

Desert Dave Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 And so. Two powerful players right here on hand, Ready, set - to go! How about? Public AAR, played TCP? Terif ... as Allies. jon_j_rambo ... as Axis. Let's see IF The Allies have a chance, As a few have said they - do not, Or not. I for one would surely enjoy Seeing this pure power encounter. Plus, we'd ALL learn a lot. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_j_rambo Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Thanks Yoda. I'm seeing the medals bar experience for other units, so it much be the case that I haven't done 7+ attacks with one ship just yet. Been rotating them around a little in my first game against Liam. Always ask the green man... @DDave --- My ranking has fallen in SC, I'm behind DragonSlow, but I guess #3 ain't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Hi Desert Dave, at the moment both sides have a good chance to win - most likely the one with the more experienced commander . Players have many opportunities to mess it up - e.g. declaring war to the "wrong" nation/ in the wrong order, neglecting their guards at the russian border (1941 there is an additional one needed ). So who just plays without caring about the rules will surely be beaten by any player who already knows them . I guess the most frequently "used" opportunity will be to miscalculate when to start buying troops and stop investing in tech. Since there is a production delay of several months, players need to start producing troops at the right time spot or they will be overrun while still waiting for their units... As Allies it is key to be patient and not attack too soon - otherwise they are doomed if Axis did it right till then. So any impatient player will have a problem when playing Allies and most likely go down - as Axis it is no problem to simply go ahead and attack everything in the way. But as Allies this tactic will be deadly against any able opponent - so in this sense, Allies are more demanding to play .

Desert Dave Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Terif, KNOWING a thing or 2: As Allies it is key to be patient and not attack too soon - otherwise they are doomed if Axis did it right till then. So any impatient player will have a problem when playing Allies and most likely go down... Couldn't agree more, ESPECIALLY For those that really like to raid And conquer and finally, parade. Hard to then switch-over And become the Zen Warrior, Content with apparently ephemeral Accomplishment. _________________________________ Incidentally, and consequent of nothing At all, IE, a bit O/T, When I lived in GErmany Those 4 years, I really enjoyed Cologne in the rain, How it made that brilliant Cathedral there Seem as if It had been constructed by ancient gods, Determined to show HOW A thing of lasting beauty MIGHT inspire and, infuse The casual observer With an... ever-lasting inner-fire.

jon_j_rambo Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 I have much work to do, never played Axis! Except for French Campaign against Hellraiser. Rulebook is 160 pages? I'm sure Yoda has his bathroom wallpaper with SC rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
