@general-6-stars

It was about GeneralDiscussions/Politics actually.
I did not want to hurt your feelings, just separate different topics from each other. Simply the moderator’s job. :wink:

Ya. I get it

@Carolina said in Forum improved???:

For something like house rules, you need to be able to sort (for example) everything related to “mines”.

Please use the Search for it 0_1542795131651_search4.PNG

Klicking on this symbol brings you to 0_1542795184336_search5.png where you can enter your keyword .
Or klick on the gear wheels and specify the search according to your needs:

The search has improved a lot compared to the old forum software.

@MrRoboto said in Two features I miss from the old forum:

1.: Indicator, in which threads I have posted
In the old forum, every thread had a little icon below the title indicating that I have posted in it. I loved it for two reasons: Checking out old games of mine and also find games very easily, even when I already read the most recent post earlier without being able to download the file.

Where was the indicator?

Found it:

2.: Path at the bottom (not that important)
After posting in a thread, I am on the bottom of the screen. In the old forum, the path to the thread was at the very top AND at the very bottom, which meant I could easily click on it to return to the subforum. The new forum lack this and only have it at the top.

Some of these things are theme dependent. Right now we’re using the default theme but it is possible to either make requests to the NodeBB developers or create a child theme. I do eventually want to create a child theme. Or possibly use a theme called Onyx.

“Do you know if there’s a train coming anytime soon?”

“Oh yes! Very soon! They are building it now!”

:-D

I might ditch General Discussion in the future

Use the 1941 subsection then. :P

Yes!

@aarules:

Can we have an Angels 20 forum in the miniatures section? We need it for when it comes out in a few months.

@rjclayton:

What are the differences between 3rd and 2nd Editions?

If you are familiar with the 1998 CD version, that is the start of 3rd edition (or had 3rd edition options).

Some changes are, submerging retreating subs, air units can retreat from amphib assualts, Wcan no longer boarders the Atlantic.

2 hit BBs were introduced, although I think that was just and extra option.
Always active AA’s, I think just another option.

@cyan:

what happened to 1st edition?

I’m not too familiar with 1st edition, it was before my time.  I started playing in the mid 80’s and it was already 2nd edition.

From my understanding 1st edition had some different multinational rules (possibly attacking) and new IC’s had no production cap.  So a common strat would be UK build and IC on Per and just strat pumping out units.
