Status: offline 		My wite 2 version of game on windows partition of mac is behaving increasingly wierdly and I fear it is corrupted in some way.
Firstly it has never played any sound since an earlier version in my test group wite 2.
Then it stopped allowing me to access Northern front theatre box by pressing ctr-t to bring up the theatre fronts on map.
Now it is mud and the screen does not show any brown hexes for mud. All is light green as in summer.
What should I do?
I am thinking of reinstalling windows and then reinstalling WITE 2 to try and fix the problem, as reinstalling the game which I have done has not allowed me to play the game music during the intro or in a turn.
What do you think I should do?

Leningrad air front HQ is showing south of Briansk.
Reserve front air HQ and Briansk front air HQ are not showing on the map at all during the air planning phase.

Status: offline 		As per the other post, the Bryansk doesn't arrive until turn 9, and the Reserve Air Command is set to Asset priority 0 so it goes away. I don't see Leningrad off in your turn 7 and 8 saves, but this can happen sometimes when one group that is transferring doesn't transfer and it drags the label to a strange location even though most of the AOG's units are in a different place.

As for the ctrl-t key, I can see if you press it you go to the reserve box, and if you click on the map part of the jump map to go to the Northern TB area the TB boxes are closed. If you zoom out and scroll you'll see it, or better yet if you click on one of the buttons above the jump map, you will be taken to the TB clicked on. As for the weather, have you clicked on the show weather button to show the bad weather on the screen? I can't say if reinstalling would help this. We don't support Macs, so not sure what would be best here. Reinstalling is always worth trying if you are still seeing problems.

One last follow up question.
In my server game MButtsworth vs Mehring T 17 neither Reserve front air command or Briansk front air command is showing on the screen. Is there any way I can access them to change the priorities so that they can function as air commands.
Thanks for all your help.

Once you have one AOG under the Air Command, you'll be able to adjust the Air Commands asset priority to get more aircraft.
