Well you sure must be carefull, by 1942 or 43 the Soviets can developed into a very dangerous beast! But then you have more time to build your army to top notch and forge a board anti-soviet-alliance!

Unfortunately, the only way I can get my economic slider all the way over to Full Free Market is if I'm a Democratic government and I'm heading in the other direction.I actually feel pretty lucky to have my Free Market settings as high as they are.intruder alert said:It seems, re: the sliders, that once you are over the hump in either direction, you might as well go to that extreme. Esp. re: Free Market. Its not really worth the IC boost and you have a huge army to upgrade anyway...
nah! I don't really need them! Although I already have modded in some new Polish generals...those will become more apparent in future updates.Enewald said:Btw, have you thought of addind slovak and czech generals into your ranks?
Just like their tech teams.
The weird thing was i could not for the life of me find a similar portait style image of Albert Lebrun. Apparently if any paintings or portaits of him were done, they didn't survive the war.demokratickid said:Wow! I quite like the way you've added those leader portraits to the AAR. They're quite nice!
Thanks! I think I've seen you here once before...but let me make sure to welcome you this time. Welcome!ruckel said:Really good AAR
Thanks very much for pointing this out...just a silly mistake in my markup and it's now corrected. You make a great point about an update on other events around the world. I'll incorporate a world events around the world update in my next batch of stuff.Maj. von Mauser said:Just so you know, the image you put for the deployment of a militia division to Memel, is actually that one where you deployed a garrision unit to Vienna.
Also, can you give us updates on the wars going on around the world? You haven't said anything about the war in China.
I never cease to be amazed at the kinds of things I can dig up on the internet if I dig hard enough. That lineup is a small example of such things. I'm glad you liked it...I thought it was pretty cool as well.canonized said:The Winter War is definitely going badly but it looks like you're using the distraction in excellent moves for preparation . My favourite piece of eye candy this time around was the military comparison lineup
You're right! and actually it's what I'm hoping for. The campaign in Russia (for me anyway) is the most challenging and fun part of the game. I've played games as Germany where I've pounced on the Russians while they were distracted in Finland and frankly that was just too easy. I want the challenge and I need the time to build up my mobile forces. It's a lot more fun to encircle giant hoardes of Russians when they actually have some fight in them.Zauberfloete said:Well you sure must be carefull, by 1942 or 43 the Soviets can developed into a very dangerous beast!

I'm definitely an interceptor guy. The main reason I'm following this path is because I anticipate breaking from the western alliance and needing to defend my production infrastructure from allied bombing raids. Interceptors receive a nice bonus vs bombers. There are 2 distinct disadvantages to interceptors: 1) they have a shorter range than fighters 2) the upgrade path to more advanced jets later in the game is longer. Those disadavantages aside, I still like the interceptor vs bomber advantage enough to choose this pathway. I don't put much stock in any ground attack capability of the fighters. I'll leave that work to my Tac Bombers. My main priority will be to defend my IC.innocex said:Why interceptors and not fighters? Wouldn't it be good to have the flexibility they provide in air superiority AND some ground support?
My guess is that the Europeans are saying....so what! and the Americans are saying...COOL....boobs! We live in a weird culture here in America. Movies depicting a man fondling a woman's breast get a rating of R..maybe even X. If that same man uses a knife to cut off that woman's breast, then suddenly the rating drops to PG-13...maybe R. Apparently violence is less objectionable than tenderness. It's a bizarre standard. I feel confident that we can all handle a drawing of a few boobs on this modest little AAR. But when the mods come to haul me aware for vending porn you may get the last laugh here.demokratickid said:IS it only me who noticed the nudidity on the last update?!?!?! :rofl:
Isn't that the best! I found that image on a fantastic site put together by the British National Archives. You can find that site HEREelbasto said:I loved the "god we are happy"! :rofl:

Interceptors receive a +25% combat bonus vs. enemy bombers. That's a significant incentive to use them.innocex said:What is the interceptor/fighter difference in bonus vs. bombers?
I guess I like all the different types of missions fighters can do and interceptors don't, even though there may be some redundancy because tactical bombers can handle the logistical strike/installation strike/ ground attack better than a fighter.
