days until they will be able to be in active combat mode. I was wondering if I had to fight the war with what was on hand. Maybe I
should take a look at the expected reinforcements again.

head reading that the first time.

to peruse them for whatever reason. Just a thought.

getting longer each turn but it's not nearby yet. Supply is the biggest problem and you know, it would really be helpful if I knew where the
next supply source could be had. But I couldn't find any north of Rome on the list of Supply Sources except for Toulouse and it's behind
a barrier or some kind..

I could use a shot of turn 54. Maybe I can figure out where the Anzio Counter Attack Group went to.

out and back in the pipeline and we're advancing but it's slow.

So um....what is it exactly that isn't working? It isn't showing up as a file to choose, or you can't truncate off the dot txt from the
filename? It won't load right in TOAW? It causes a blue screen of death? Can't download the file?

Have you tried to do a "save as" on the link and THEN maybe it doesn't work? I need more data to compute the cause of the
problem. Do I need to reattach it to the post? Do I need to give you a different turn? Actually maybe we should try that.

EDIT: I just clicked on the link to give the filename display then did a "save link as" and saved it as a text file with a really long
mathematical name: A6J9B45593DC93B.txt or sometlhing like that. Then I changed the dot txt on the end to dot sal and
loaded it into TOAW and it worked just fine. I really don't know what problemo you're having.

targets to hit. And there's an ME-109 unit at an airfield that has an AA unit on it and I don't want to airfield attack the field when the
AA unit is there so I'm setting up all kinds of AS missions hoping that he'll come up to play and I can shoot him down.

cute trick to swap out the type of plane? Or something?

Status: offline 		Here's the new front lines now: I'm pushing slowly north units go out and convert hexes until they run out of supply and then they
trek back to Rome to refuel and they go back out and do the same. The rail is getting longer reaching from Anzio, it's almost to Rome.
I'm wondering if I should repair the railroad up the west coast or should I repair across country. The last few supply points were in ports
so I'm guessing I should repair up the coast looking for the next supply point. If there is one. Somewhere.

to support that.

TOAW Scenario Viewer program


Yeah that is what I was after. If I could get a copy that would be great.

Let me rip though a few of the tutorials again, I used to play the crap out of this back in '98-04'ish and then (or whenever) Matrix re-released it for a few months prior to me taking a break to play-test GG WITE.

Cheers.

bad boy and be ready to go. I added a dot txt to the end of the filename just so I could post it here. Just truncate off the dot txt
from the filename and unzip it.

Status: offline 		T72's front lines. I've run into some patch of area that doesn't have any supply at all and so I'm going to have to put the war on hold
until I can get some supply to the units. The supply line running along the west coast is getting longer but still has a long way to go.
The rail from Taranto doesn't go to the east coast so I'm having to construct a rail line going from Rome to the east coast and that's
going to take a while. It's a long way.

so the rail can lengthen a bit.

and I've got 2 or 3 squadrons of P-38's on AS for contingencees and that leaves everybody else for INT and it's wrecking the German
war effort. Almost everything that moves on the German side gets some INT attention. I haven't seen very many German units
evaporating but it's a thing that does happen from time to time.

more troops to hold the line here.
