May I ask you a question? I've just bought the game and may look at writing my own aar but..how do you take a screen shot. I tried PrtScr but it didn't do anything and there's no mention in the hotkey section of the pdf manual.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.


It didn't do any visible or notice-able thing but what it did was post a screenshot on your "clipboard". I use MS paint to get the image off the clipboard by using the "paste" command. Once you have it visible in MS paint you can crop it, save it, modify it, etc.

Note the capture of Smolensk, Kiev, and Odessa. Most of the progress was in the South end of the front lines just to the east of Odessa.

Status: offline 		The Axis has the MP units busy converting enemy hexes to friendly ones and quite by accident an MP unit stumbled upon a partisan unit that appeared, appearently out of thin air.  The Axis needs to scan the map more carefully before moving anything each turn to catch these partisans before they can damage railroads, etc:

Status: offline 		what do the tank losses for the allies and axis look like? The Soviets seem to be more than holding their own in the infantry exchanges -- losses of c. 33% vs 50% for the Axis, plus plenty of replacements for the Russians and very little for the Axis.
