I got all 3 downloads as a Christmas present and am now right at the end of 40, so there's no way I can do 41 in the next few days, so please hold 42 up for a while.

Red/White Dot Visibility

When there is a unit in a hex, I'm finding it difficult to see the refuel dot aid. With tanks in the hex it's completely invisible. Is there any way round this, or could it be addressed? It's quite annoying when my plane has ammo left and there is a unit on the edge of the red/white border that coul...

I don't quite fall into the oldest category, so I'll just say I'm in the over 40's! Because it's almost 50/50 at that point, maybe there should be an over 40's v under 40's tournament :lol:

As a beginner, I can point out one big difference between carriers and airfields, which is that you need to be on top of the carrier to refuel as opposed to the adjacent hexes of airfields. Perfectly reasonable if you think about it, but it caught me out!!

I can't agree with your assessment. I am still trying to get to grips with the mechanics of the game, after hours of gameplay and having had lots of experience years ago with the old game. I look at what some people report on how they progress through the campaign and am amazed. But I am slowly gett...

Entrenchment

I'm fairly certain of this, but I'm happy to be corrected. I keep seeing ai units dive into cities I have cleared and not managed to occupy then on my turn I see they have an entrenchment value of 3. Surely it should be zero until they have sat there for a complete turn?

I think that's a Red-tailed hawk, one of the commonest in the Americas. Very nice pictures. Are there any reptiles in that pond? It might have been after a tasty snack.

Impar, that's a very astute question. But one that applies to much more, I think.

Excellent - just had this problem, came here, got the fix and all now sorted! And I would say that this is the first scenario in the campaign where you may not go the full (28?) turns as a decisive victory needs to be done within 10 turns, so once you go past turn 18? and you capture all the margina...

Neutralised Cities

What are the benefits of attacking and turning a city white? I haven't read anything anywhere about this effect. Is there a more detailed guide than the manual that comes with the game?

That's brilliant! I've been left/right clicking like a maniac all round the plane icons, and similarly left/right clicking round the target, but I just didn't think to do what amounts the exact reverse of the setting action!! I even read through the entire manual to no avail. Is there a sticky topic...

Thanks for that - there's a couple of tips listed I hadn't picked up on.

I'm having trouble with air/artillery strikes - I can't see how to cancel them immediately after setting them. Is this possible?

Tips

I'm slowly getting to grips with my tactics, but I need help. There doesn't seem to be much on the forum as to how you can best play the game, unless I'm missing something? If not, is there any way of seeing all the tips that come up individually, like in a text file or something?

Download or Disc?

Hello. Been recommended to take a look at BA and it looks good! However, before I make the purchase, is it worth paying the extra five or so English quids for a disc? I hate Steam games where even with the disc you still need hours of broadband time to get started plus offline mode can be tricky. So...
