    @Betano Thanks for your thoughts on PTV and glad you like it in general.

    Strat bombers are a tough unit to get right without going down the path of different powers having different available units. The unit has to cover everything from a twin engine medium bomber with a crew trained in torpedo attack (say a Jap G3M or G4M) to a 4 engine long range bomber with no naval attack capability.

    Some of the other guys and I here made a mod just for fun with some additional changes to strat bombers:

    • Attack power lowered to 2 to account for the extreme inaccuracy of high level bombing
    • Range increased by 1 (this allows Berlin to be bombed from London, though without escort, as happened in the real war)
    • Cannot attack sea zones unless there is at least 1 other type of attacking unit

    Mikawa released his ships to operate independently of his flagship, and at 01:31 he ordered "Every ship attack."

    @barnee “I’m going to add those new units directly into the startup setup, so the changes are permanent. I also hope the bomber issue can be fully fixed through Map Options. That way, I can keep this variant saved for myself and playtest it. Honestly, I think this map has the potential to become much more.”

    @mikawagunichi Yes, the map is spectacular. I’m considering how to add some extra defense to historical cities as a form of fortifications, just to make them harder to capture—simply by giving them an additional defense value. As a World at War player, I would ideally like to see proper fortifications implemented, but without going that far, I think increasing the defense of certain key resistance points would make battles that are currently too easy feel more challenging, which would be closer to reality. I enjoy playing solo games, since I fill them with information and save them as historical events, yes, I like to improve my copy of the game to suit my own preferences."

    @Betano Have you seen the Total World War (TWW) mod? It has features like fortifications and more logistics features (movement on trains that require railroads to be built) Different units that have bonuses for terrain, etc. Makes the game more complex.

    @surfer No, let me look it up, because I can also take already made modifications that I like.

    @surfer I don’t want to turn the game into a Hoi2 either, I have them all and I played them all, the idea is to not stray from the basic rules of A&A where strategy comes with luck and this has its charm in Hoi2 good tactical strategic cards ensure victory.

    @surfer f37d6ed1-bb72-4ed5-8046-7230d19e7658-image.png Oh my god, I didn’t know this existed! I doubt many people play it, but it’s a great source of ideas. Its files are full of different kinds of modifications. One of the greatest contributions from HoI4 to its predecessors was the development of logistics, and here I can even see railroads and everything, with accelerated unit movement. Each of these games has its own unique elements that give them value, and this project seems to bring a bit of everything together. You don’t see those massive unit stacks in regions because the unit values are higher, so the map doesn’t look as overloaded as in World at War. In that sense, G40 looks cleaner, but this one incorporates everything—it’s like a whole universe.

    @Betano Agree with the confusion graphic. TWW is ridiculous for play-ability. So many options and optimizations possible that are country specific.

    @surfer Very good ideas, but the Java system just can’t handle that. Yesterday I got really dizzy from going through so much content, and I ended up meeting two TripleA players who invited me to play with them and shared a lot of tips to improve quickly—but honestly, it’s a bit overwhelming. I’ve already stopped playing HOI4 because the built-in content is too much for me, though I have to admit the game has an amazing map and you can tell there are countless hours of work behind it.

    I’m not on the overall standings sheet for some reason.

    I have 11 OOB, 14 BM and 2 PtV games. So 27 games. I cannot be unseated!

    I would do this for you, but I’m not entirely sure whether others are able to do this themselves:

    Through sorting or filtering, sometimes players’ lines are not visible.
    I think if you go the the filter view (right next to the filter icon toward top right) and go to all players, and/or all active players, toggling that will correct it.

    Let me know if you can’t change your filter views. It would be valuable information to me.

    Sorry about the disappearance - I blame it on Mr Roboto for designing it and disappearing before I fully learned all features. We’re lucky it’s working at all

    I appear if I change the filter to all players and I stay visible if I say “active players”. Hmm, only the default view seems to hide me.

    It looks like some rows are hidden to me @gamerman01

    Use filter view, show all, show active, maybe back again, it should work - always does for me (see my reply to Simon)

    Been playing Stalingrad and Global (Larry Harris 1942 setup with GenCon Tournament Rules) with @mikawagunichi and @Daaras this weekend!

    @axis-dominion I decided that my 31 games from 2024 was not the most conducive to winning

    Mikawa released his ships to operate independently of his flagship, and at 01:31 he ordered "Every ship attack."
