You mean some of the other battlescenarios outside Africa and SP. is on regimental lvl. but not scenarios like for instance barbarossa?

there are enough screenies from which you can deduct the answer yourself.....

I'm a little nuts with the regiments, brigades attachments...
i.e. In the Afrika Korps screeny, you can read:
Erwin Rommel. 15th Panzer Division.
At the same time: 2 divisions
and on the screen, one Pz rgt and an infantry brigade...
So....?
Seriously, anybody understands?

My take on the whole thing is:
The smallest possible unit is a division ...
One can build (or have pre-defined scenario specific) half-strengthed divisions (i.e. max. strength = 54) ...
For historic flavour these understrength divisions can be renamed brigade and regiment ... they're still divisions though ...
Therefore Rommal can have under his command a corps of 2 divisions (108 total strength), and these divisions can be designated brigade and regiment ... the corps itsself is given the name of "division" but its really a HOI1-style corps ...
all this is IMO is done in this N.African battle-scenario to represent the smaller scale armed conflict that took place in this theatre ... IIRC the Afrikakorps never consisted of more than 3 divisions ... in HOI1 that would not give you a lot of flexibility for flanking maneouvres and such ...
Johan explained the whole regiment / division issue a couple of days ago. Yes hes correct that to make regiments the divisions are set to a max of 1/2 1/3 str. this way regiment scale conflicts can be handled while still using Divs as the games smallest unit size.
Well, it would appear that extensive practice with a partner is going to be critical in a success of a mp coop game. That or extensive abuse of your employer's/school's/rich uncle's phone
Or maybe a bundled VOIP client?
Or maybe a bundled VOIP client?
There are several good VOIP freeware progs out there. I would bet they would work perfect. I know they always gave us a huge MP advantage in our MP RTS games. ( warcraft, starcraft, TA: kingdoms etc and more recently Warhammer 40k )

This sounds great -
Interesting naval combat. I contrast this with BiB's pre-release HOI1 Japan AAR, where he went through the entire war without losing a capital ship.

Thanks for the fun story guys. A lot of organized chaos as war should be.
And, well, at least the dutch did their bit

The UK sallied their fleet.
Scrambling is what it's called when aircraft intercept other aircraft.
A fleet sallies.

Perhaps this "scuttling" typo was made because there is an option to scuttle ships instead of them fallling into enemy hands when the base province gets occupied by enemy forces?
Looking at the AAR, it seems ships do not sail
instantly out of port as they do in HOI....
