A small question :D

I’d still check out the Atari “Axis & Allies,” unless you have NO interest in RTS (as stated, like Command & Conquer).  It trades strategy for faced pace action, and can be fun with friends on a LAN.  I got a chance to play for a while, and it can be entertaining, for a short time…
Others to try would be Sudden Strike, another RTS but not as goofy, and my all time favorite RTS involving WW2 material: Close Combat.  A damn good game…
I downloaded a copy of Iron Blitz from a website I can’t remember - I’ll try and track it down.  It was a relatively small download, runs fairly well (gets slower and slower as you go on, even when turning down some of the settings), and is FREE!!!

Try the Link Thrasher put up. The rumor is all over the place.

In 2nd it must be in the same seazone.

@El:

Bolter,

just a personal question…

Are you a heavy drinker?
With that nick and close
it justs looks that way. :D

ROFL! that’s a good one!

Cheers! is not an exhortation to drink, it’s so people in the boards cheer-up.

I play online WW2 flight sims like Aces High and WW2OL. People really need to cheer-up on those boards ;)

Incidently, I got my nickname while doing carrier trials for an Aces High naval squadron. I couldn’t catch the wire when landing, and that’s what the Navy calls a bolter…it stuck.

With that said…Cheers! :D

I’m not sure if that was what he meant, that was what I understood however as silly as it sounds. I think you covered it as best as it could be covered Meijing.

Just one or two swipes with a toothbrush and the BB is clean!

Very good response. I’d like to add that if you are talking about 1 TR (unsupported) vs. 1 TR (also unsupported), the defender will always win since the attacker has 0 attack value. I.E. essentially you can’t do it.

Unless you play with an always active AA gun, flyovers on AA guns on the Non Combat Move cannot be fired upon by the AA gun.

In any attack of the nature you described, the AA gun must roll one die for each attacking plane (that is, FTRs & BMRs) at the same time–attacker chooses losses. This concept is reflected throughout the game in various different instances. For instance, your dice in Combat are rolled by “column” on the BattleBoard. After you roll for all “columns” then count the raw # of hits, the opponent chooses what got hit (except in the rare case when multi-national defenders cannot agree, in which case the attacker chooses). In research as well, you can’t buy 1 Tech Die at a time and roll till you get a hit; you must decide how many dice you want and roll all of them at once.

UK sould be flying spare fighters to Karelia until it falls, once it falls, kill it without amphibious (from finland), this way you have the option of retreating. I agree, cooperate with Russia to destroy anything that touches the Baltic Sea and then when your ready to land, hit Germany(unless Western Europe is weak). I see many players who have habits of evacuating Germany each turn, then filling it up with new units. If they do this then you may be killing a force composed of mostly fighters, bombers, and tanks. US should definitely help take Western Europe, and/or Southern Europe if it is weak. Russia should build a horde of infantry and try to keep a fighter or two, then if Germany lets up-SLAM infantry rush into Easter Europe (and Ukraine, of course)
