Check back tomorrow afternoon.

Regards,

- Erik

Why does Yamato hugger create a detailed and elaborate AAR for a game that doesnt really exist?


Go GOLD NOW, OK how about now, .....now.....

You can ease my pain providing a 'revised' preview on Monday. And I'm pretty sure the sharp eyed forumites will find enough stuff which needs 'correction' - one way or the other.

Thanks Erik, but I think we would rather have predictable predictions!

Particularly interested in the "Collector's Edition" !

Status: offline 		Very good for now.

Liked:

Air combat detail, and the importance of altitude.
New land combat modes.

I like specially the reseve capacity. It will be great if it is linked to unit mobility(motorization, non motorization). Unclear in text.


Cons:

No midgets in Allied side.
Minefields can't be detected from air. I know this is too much but i also would like magnetic minefields could be detonated by proper airplanes, hehe

note: in 13.2.1.5 says supply points are produced in Light and Heavy Industry. Seems incomplete since Refineries also produce, albeit low, supply points.
