english question

[Brent_P]

I love the idea of Iron Cross and it obviously took a lot of work. But why is the english so bad. The events and techs were obviously written in another language than translated resulting in sentence structure that is usually too difficult to even understand. If it wasn't for my extensive knowledge of WWII history, I wouldn't have a clue what was happening in the events when they fired.

Has anyone fixed this or is there a way for me too? I would like playing a game in which the langauge made some sense. And the tech component names really need some work on their names as well as the pictures coorelating to the aircraft, which were way off. I had to fix that myself.

ok, so I may not have had the patch 1.01 installed; I will see if that makes any difference. On another note, the Germans seem quite weak when pitted against Poland in 1939. I have not been able to break through their lines with all of the right tech researched and troops outnumbering them 2 to 1. I've tried to raise the Blitzkrieg max organisation level, but the level in the game stays the same no matter what level I set it to in the file.

I have had no difficulty with the Polish as Germany in 1939.

Make sure you are playing with the latest version and revision. If you are, then you must be doing something incorrectly, because I am able to make pretty short worl of Poland, usually annexing them in under 2 weeks.

You have to watch your strategies. Are you attacking the whole front or are you picking your fights? Are you using the right unit for the right job? Are you pinning neighbor units so they don't assist in defense? Are you using ground attack for TAC or CAS? Are you using high ranked officers in your HQs? Are you using multiple HQs? Are you a vet to HOI2 game? Am I asking too many questions? You can use the HOI2 Wiki for general strategies. I also saw a HQ guide to show you how to use them a while back. Setting your attacks to arrive at the same time helps alot. Don't use too many unit to attack one place because you get penalties....Also post weither you are playing with a AoD or a ARMA base game as there is alot of differences actually.
