Just started a PBEM game. As the japs it seems like I have too much info on Allied bases - Here is Singapore as an example..but I get the same info for pearl, SF, LA etc etc..

I included the info I get when playing single player. That info seems right.

Advise?

Both sides have way too much intel for free in WitP.

At least the last two lines in your screenshot are subject to FoW (Fog of War). Same is true for any ships and task forces you see on the map during your turn.

These would have been known in advance. You do have spies you know.

Newspapers, radio broadcasts, spies . . I would agree there is too much intell for both sides in WiTP, but not way too much.

Wait until you or your oppoent starts using the City strategic bombing interface to determine what you are producing and in what numbers ... now this definately needs more FOW ...

Thanks bosses.

Is that FOW, or rather the lack of FOW fixed in AE?
