rich12545 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 This game has "one more turn" better than probably any game I've ever played. There is more of a difference in the same scenario between sc2 and waw than just making it compatible. The German navy is no match for GB. So why is it recommended in the tutorial to move a few units by Norway when all they do is get decimated? Why is it necessary to declare war on Benelux? Why can't I just attack? Why Benelux? For convenience? I believe it didn't exist until after ww2. There is a lot more to this game than meets the eye. It is deeper than it looks at first.

Timskorn Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Hi Rich, glad you're enjoying it! I'll answer what I can. Unless HC changes the design, the only way you can declare war is through the Maps screen. Not the simplest of ways, but it works. I believe they call it Benelux for convenience due to the size of the map, and not trying to partition what small plot of land there is for Benelux. Yep, and when you get into multiplayer games it'll really blow your mind how much strategy, depth and variation there can be. It's why some of us have played it for years, there is always something new to try in a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich12545 Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 I never play multi. That's why I've been interested in how good the ai is. So far I have not been disappointed. And I was wondering WHY it's necessary to declare war before attacking. Why can't I just simply attack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timskorn Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Because only uncivilized people attack BEFORE declaring war! Are you saying you'd like to be able to just move/attack into a neutral country, and the game automatically make it so you're at war with them?

rich12545 Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 That's what I was thinking. Nazi Germany wasn't exactly civilized and iirc they sometimes attacked without declaring war. Same with Japan. So I was just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huhr Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Hi Rich, I was a player with all the games against the computer and then I started PBEM games and its a totally new and better experience, playing a human player takes the game to a new dimension just like the old boardgames, send me a PM and we can try a game online or pbem with SC2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich12545 Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 Hi, thanks for the invite but I never play multi. With all the different games I play I never get good enough at any one to compete. Maybe some time in the future but even with sc2 I'm still learning the basics.
