OH MY GOD! *Drools* Beautiful! What a piece of art! I love you, Paradox!

EDIT: Weee! First comment!

 

[Narug]

I am the 2nd who saw that.For such unparalleled connection to Paradox work i deserve a beta tester place.

 

[Murmurandus]

Oh, yes, me like very much...

Is this the June 44 - Normandy Invasion Scenario?

 

[unmerged(2966)]

The airfield in norwich has two airstrips the others three, what does this mean? Does airfields have levels? Like ability to service more planes? Or heavier? Tell me, tell me, tell me!

 

[unmerged(26876)]

This is why I love Fridays!

Thanks Johan!

Tally Ho! Get into those Jerries Bader!


Er, Wait a minute! I'll be playing as Germany

 

[Earl Uhtred]

Christ, it gets significantly better every time...

 

[unmerged(29126)]

Thank you, Thank you
Finally the much anticipated altered aircombat system ... on D-Day of all days


I wonder how the supra-provincial regions like westphalia, brittany etc. are gonna be "implemented",

And yes, it seems there is airfield capacity (10/10 and 6/6, 6/8), which probably means airfields are constructable ... luvly

Let the analyzing begin ...

Edit: not D-Day 20-6-44 o

nice planes

I want johans man babies!!!11one!!1

Looks real good. 72 freakin' divisions in Normandy, that is insane. We can see the missions assigned to the sqaudrons. Air superiority, strat bombing. I am guessing there is tactical bombings as well, intercept, intredict?

Good stuff right there.

eidit: looks like you assign the squadrons REGIONS to patrol or air superiority missions, instead of provinces. That is cool. So instead of just one province being gaurded, the planes will intercept anything in the Netherlands, Normandy...so on. Cool...

I must say that the new Coasal fortress sprites are beautiful and way cooler than those in HoI1.

AA sprites are also very nice.

 

[Bossemanden]

Cool screenie. The God of Thunder and Rocknroll strikes again.

Pick me! I'll Start!

Observations

A bug?: The game seems to be having problems displaying more than 100 units in a province? Note the number of ships in the channel. 130. Displayed as “1|0” because the “1” is overwriting the “3”.

I am confused. I thought the Map would use English names only. I still see a few French spellings there?

You can now clearly see Flak concentrations on the map (in Lille) – I like that.

Three different and distinct types of tanks shown at once! I might have to use sprites instead of counters in HoI2…. Naaah. But nice anyway.

We now have a better idea how Air Forces will work!

Of the Dover Squadrons I see something interesting: 3 are assigned to “Air Superiority”. That is interesting because this was a DOCTRINE you had to RESEARCH in HoI.
So, I am thinking that, as you research doctrines it is possible the number of different Missions you can assign to your Units may increase?
You start with Intercept and Patrol and end up adding others like Air Superiority?

This could also work for Naval Units: You research “Sea Lanes Denial” doctrine and you can then assign naval vessels to a sea province to “deny use to enemy”?

This would be a very interesting and powerful feature!

Can we have any official word? Please??

just a minor graphical glitch from overlayed units (unit types).

shitty...............
