1. sometimes units that are send as a reeinforcement to a defending battle do not join the fight, they just stand in the prov doing nothing. happend 2 times in freiburg ( against france ) and bordeux ( against a landing of canadian troops )

2. sometimes ( quite rare though ) air untis that won a air battle over a enemy prov don´t fullfil their mission instead fly back to base, though in good shape and org.

3. only fighters / interceptors ( or multirole planes with good air attack ) should fly intercept missions, not bombers or transports.

4. the maginot line in one french prov dissapeared completly after the vichy event... there were no serious battles in this prov that the forts could have been destroyed or so. and it takes really big guns and masses of troops to destroy lvl. 10 forts completly...

5. strat bombing damage is too high ( from such small forces the AI usually sends ). i would say 1/3 or so from the actual value. but therefore it should take a little longer till the damage is repaired. and they should really consider not attacking that often, but if then w/ some more force. although they got a bloody nose quite often they seem to learn their lesson and don´t make that much bombing runs anymore. england seems even to have disbanded it´s complete strat bomber fleet, but perhaps they are all in the pool and don´t show up on the comparison chart.

6. italy and rumania still deploy their airforce ( with even naval + torp planes ) in poland. no water or targets there....

7. i have seen a message that i got the " coastal fort increase strength tech " from hungary. hungary have no coast, why developed they this tech ?

8. Invasions seem to be slightly improved, but still they mostly attack in too weak strength and without air and battleship support. and too often IMHO. AI should check how much defending divs are in the prov before launching invasions with 2 inf against 4 panther tank divs or so....

9. in the 2 games i began w/ germany the US was always in the allies in 1940. why is that ?

comments to naval warfare later, must first build some ships....

version 1.04 very hard / agressive no mod german version
germany 1936 camp.

comments welcome :)

1)Happened to me too. in Freiburg.

2)happened to me too. I think it happens when the enemy planes intercept and not when they "defend". not sure...

3)agree.

4)I also had one Maginot province fort completely destroyed. I had my fighters to intercept in that province. ;)
In my case it was the airbattle fort destruction bug, could it be the same in your case?

8) confirm and agree...

9)This happened in one of my games. but not in the other.

Regards/
Klaus

Greetings,

I too experienced the bug regarding reinforcements just watching the fighting instead of participating when playing version 1.03b. It looked like this only happened when the rank of the reinforcements leader was equal or higher than the original commander, but I don´t know for sure. With the new patch it seems to have been fixed.

>>>>2)happened to me too. I think it happens when the enemy planes intercept and not when they "defend". not sure...

it seems when you send fighter 2 or 3 hours before the bombers and the fighters battleing the enemy and then the bombers arrive this can be prevented. must observe some more, because as vulture said " sometimes won´t suffice "

>>>4)I also had one Maginot province fort completely destroyed. I had my fighters to intercept in that province. ;)
In my case it was the airbattle fort destruction bug, could it be the same in your case?

could be, there were 1 or 2 air battles over the prov... okay, this bug should be already logged i hope.


and hand my other comments pls. over to the programmers, pls.

esp. the strat. bombing issue ! if paris have say 20 IC. and one single bomber unit whipes out 13 or 14 of it much too high. okay, they build up over time, but still not very realistic. as i said, tone down the damage , but make longer repair time. and the flights should not happen so often esp. in 40 / 41 !! the allied bombing campaign started in 43 to hurt the germans. and i mean not the "terror" bombing night attacks ( which are hopefully not represented as this in the game, as i consider them a war crime ) but the US precission bombings of war relevant industries...

and perhaps someone could look into the convoi issue ???

1. britain should defend their convois.

2. great losses in convoied goods should actually hurt them

3. i think that subs ( of course depending on the type ) can stay to long at see and sink to much ships during this time.
number of topedos a sub could carry should be considered, as it was useless if they were all gone and they had to go into port to take over new ones and other supplies ( food especially )

thank you !!

On the plane issue... There is a thread already about it.

On the Maginot issue... I need very specific conditions on it

Well, others said it is too low. :) Anyway, the big initial "damage" is rather to be understood as an effect of suppression (bomb them periodically and they are in real trouble). That the ICs usually go up again relatively fast should represent the fact that it's often rather just little things which are responsible for the overall malfunctioning and which can be fixed relatively easily once the perpetual bombing eventually ceases.

I'm playing Germany & in June 1939 the USA begins stategic bombings on me and tries to do amphibious landings as I am finishing off France . This is really bad since historically they did not join WW II until 1941 & makes it very difficult to be Germany. Also Japan never declares war on china perhaps because I did not attempt to get them to join the Axis alliance. This should not matter since Japan was at war with china before Hitler came into power as I recall.
