Re: Hey Developers How about $2350

I just started playing Panzer Corps Gold but I can see how there could be improvements. I did play Panzer General I and II. I did not look at Panzer Corps II yet. Yes, I do play MOO2 with Mod 1.50 - there is also an outside editor so you can edit the save games. On the Matrix side of things, the WIT...

Re: DAW - Der andere Weg - The other way

I am just starting to learn the game but from what I read here, this does sound interesting!

Re: What makes a game more strategic than tactical?

In my view, there are almost no strategy games, even at Slitherine. The games are all tactical. I believe this is a gaping and unnoticed hole in the games market. By strategic, I mean that the consequences of play have ramifications beyond the battle in which you are fighting. The outcome of the ba...

For a just a little bit :wink: of humor, this is a good one. But he was not joking when he wrote about the Berlin Blockade ending but I think that he said it the best way possible.

Re: Combat Equation

Well, I bought it late last fall/early winter when it was both on sale plus my anniversary coupon. I used to play Panzer General 2 a lot and I need other games to play when I take a break from playing a much larger game called WITP:AE!

Re: Combat Equation

I just started playing the game but I like to overstrength the artillery if there is enough prestige as well as the fighter units at the beginning. When I played Panzer General 2, I would overstrength the longer ranged AFV units but not those with a range of "1" since those points are lost...

Re: Good time to buy the rights to Master of Orion?

I never played Masters of Orion but I have and do play Masters of Orion 2: Battle of Antares. It is a fun game and people have made mods and updated it. It is multiplayer capable already and there is an editor so you can even modify games in play. Although it would probably be best to edit the setup...

The base game on the disc works but not when I have updated it. I have not yet downloaded nor installed any DLCs.

From what little that I read in the manual, you can get new leaders in combat.

Re: Newbie AAR - Grand Campaign 310 BCE

I did not say play it like civilization. I merely stated what you had to do in that game before going to war. Find the key things in this game and get them. If you can go to war and win when your armies are poorly equipped against an army that has excellent equipment, then I applaud you.

Re: Newbie AAR - Grand Campaign 310 BCE

A little different from WITP-AE?

Have you ever played Civilization? That is where I learned to build up the infrastructure before going to war.

Re: Newbie AAR - Grand Campaign 310 BCE

Not having played the game but other ones, so maybe put another population into food production to grow? Then you could raise an army and try to capture another area. But the idea of building a pirate fleet is a good one, especially if it targets the commerce in the area that you want to capture sin...

Re: Newbie AAR - Grand Campaign 310 BCE

Maybe get some more leaders through combat then send him on a suicide mission. Of course, you faction might fall apart from what I read.
