Posted this for easy retrieval...for example I can read while playing the game on my computer while reading via my tablet etc.
v1.12.00 October 11, 2021
GAME ENGINE CHANGES
Fixed a PURCHASE UNIT screen error that did not sometimes highlight Minor nation unit types
with an '*' that could be repurchased at a discount (Earlydoors).
Fixed a rare Paratroops airborne movement error that would reroute along a less optimal path
when it shouldn't do so (klschult).
Fixed a very rare game freeze during AI naval combat calculations (redrum68).
Fixed a hex control update error around enemy resources that would sometimes revert control to
your opponent when your own friendly unit positions should have prevented that from happening
(EarlyDoors).
Fixed a FoW error regarding units within resources of non belligerent but fully mobilized nations
when moving adjacent to them, they will now remain hidden (atshii).
Fixed a FoW error during an air attack that did not reveal units along the flight path when a sub
dove (mdsmall).
Fixed a PBEM login issue that did not properly handle some special characters in passwords such
as '#' or '!'.
Fixed a PBEM save error for when a game has been 'resigned'.
Last Turn Summary screen now has the option to list items in reverse chronological order
(georgiabulldog1).
EDITOR CHANGES
Fixed a UNIT script error that would lead to a crash if using TYPE=2, this is no longer a valid
option for UNIT events as it should never have been applicable (RMelvin).
STRENGTH scripts can now be amended to include an optional list of conditional
#ALIGNMENT_POSITIONs.
1939 Campaigns
Text added to the Strategy Guides to explain that when the US convoy to the UK, or the UK's
convoy to the USSR are re-routed, it may be necessary to amend the % being sent by convoy by
going to War Maps -> Convoy Map, clicking on the relevant flag and using the arrow buttons
(EarlyDoors).
Added symbols and text to the map showing the Italian mobilization zones, within which 2 Allied
Amphibious units or 7 naval units (including regular Transports) could trigger Italian mobilization.
The Amphibious trigger zone for Italy to mobilize has been reduced from 20 to 19 hexes.
Iraq now starts at 25% pro-Allied (was 20%) and its convoy to the UK in all campaigns now only
requires it to be pro-Allied, so one Axis diplomacy success alone will no longer be enough to end
Iraq's convoy to the UK (PvtBenjamin).
Reduced the chance of the Anglo-French Expedition re DE 204 succeeding from 50% to 33%
(scum; gilthib; moca loca).
Japanese advances in China can now stimulate the US and India moving 8-15% towards the
Allies. The triggers being an Axis unit within 3 hexes of Yenan, or within 2 hexes of Sian, Lanchow
or Chungking (Jackmck).
Allied declarations of war against New Guinea, Sarawak and the Solomons will now reduce British
and Indian National Morale by 1,000 points per declaration (havoc1371; smckechnie).
Amended the French Strength script for Panic caused by the Maginot Line being outflanked so
that it no longer requires Belgium to be Allied and surrendered, but instead checks solely for the
position of Axis forces (havoc1371).
Amended the Soviet Heavy Tank spawn location near Ulan Ude so it doesnt deploy in the
mountain (Marcinos1985).
Switched off the Surrender_2 Event AXIS AI: Denmark Surrenders To Germany (100%)
(sschnar1).
Allied amphibious preparations against Italy while the USA is neutral may now trigger the
deployment of up to 3 Garrison units in mainland Italy and Sicily.
The effect of Soviet Winter on Axis units has been increased from a unit morale loss of 40-75% to
80-100%, and losses will now vary between 1 and 3 per unit, rather than 0-2 (ThunderLizard2;
Taifun).
Fixed an error that had two Von Rundstedt HQs listed in 1939 World at War, and two Rommels
listed in 1939 Race to Victory. The second ones have now been corrected to be Von Vietinghoff.
The USSR now receives 4 Armies rather than 2 as Siberian reinforcements (Marcinos1985).
Added the National Morale scripts: Polish Morale Suffers From Battlefield Losses and Polish
Morale Collapses From The Loss Of Warsaw (EarlyDoors).
DE 605 now checks for Peru being neutral but pro-Axis to fire (OldCrowBalthazor).
DE 708 for Italy to declare war on Greece no longer requires France to have surrendered to fire
(gilthib).
Removed the requirement for Italy to be fully mobilized from the 7th Armoured's Decision Events
DE 102, DE 156 and DE 157 (Gilber).
The date of Denmark surrendering via DE 601 has been changed from the 14th April to the 29th
March 1940, as have those scripts relating to Norway's surrender if triggered via DE 613 or 614
that would have also taken place on the 14th April (El_Condoro; havoc1371).
Amended the National Morale script for when the Germans near Paris so it should neither fire too
early nor too late (Tanaka; gilthib).
The UK capital now moves to Melbourne rather than Sydney as otherwise there was the potential
for some Australian reinforcements to be unable to deploy there (OldAHGamer).
Changed the trigger for the Mobilization_2 script #NAME= Japanese Navy Aggression In The
Atlantic (USA?Allies) so that it will not trigger if the Japanese are east of Capetown (calcwerc).
All Campaigns
There will now be Pop Up messages at the start of the Axis turn when Hiroshima and Nagasaki
are hit by Atomic Bombs (OldCrowBalthazor).
DE 306 added for the USA to send supplies to the USSR via Persia, with them sending 40 and the
USSR receiving 80 due to their high scarcity value in the USSR, it will also boost Soviet National
Morale, initially by 5,000 points, subsequently by 200 per turn. The Axis can prevent the arrival of
these supplies by placing a naval unit within 10 hexes of Basra port, or by controlling any hex on
the land route from Basra through Isfahan, Tehran and Rasht to Baku (pjg100; Taifun; Sgt.York)..
Axis forces fighting in Siberia, or Soviet units advancing into Manchuria will now boost Chinese
National Morale by 7,500 points (IIo4Tu).
DE 623 now provides the Axis with 85 Victory points (eriador08; firsteds).
Axis vessels outside Vladivostok will now be attacked every turn if the USSR says yes to DE 407
(MisterMuffles).
Removed the condition for Chungking to be in Allied hands for DE 408 to fire and added a
condition position for Axis forces being near Sian so that it isn't only an Axis advance on
Chungking that can trigger it (IIo4Tu).
Edited the Winter weather for Weather Zone 39 (Ukraine up to Stalingrad) so that it will either be
Mud (30%) or Frozen (70%) and in Fall it will now have a 50% chance of Mud (Taifun; EarlyDoors;
Marcinos1985).
Reduced the cost of Production Technology for the USSR from 175 to 150 MPPs per chit
(LoneRunner).
The Unit Morale Bonuses and Penalties for surrendering nations has been decreased from 20-
30% to 15-25%.
The penalty to Germany for Japan surrendering has been increased from 5,000 to 15,000
National Morale. Italy now also suffers a penalty of 5,000 points, while the USA, UK, India and
China will all receive a bonus of 10,000 points, and the USSR will receive a bonus of 5,000 points
(LoneRunner).
The USA currently loses 25 National Morale points per turn if Hawaii including its ports are under
Axis occupation. This will now increase to 125 points per turn that Honolulu is occupied by the
Axis. It will increase to 250 points per turn from the 1st January 1943, and 350 points per turn from
the 1st January 1944 (ElvisJJonesRambo ; firsteds; taffjones; pjg100).
The USA will now lose 50 National Morale points per turn that Manila is occupied by the Axis. This
will increase to 100 points per turn from the 1st January 1944.
The USA will now lose 30 National Morale points per turn that American Samoa is occupied by the
Axis.
The USA will now lose 30 National Morale points per turn that Kukum is occupied by the Axis.
The USA will now lose 30 National Morale points per turn that Fiji is occupied by the Axis.
The USA will now lose 30 National Morale points per turn that Guam is occupied by the Axis.
The UK, USA and India will now lose 50 National Morale points per turn that Batavia is occupied
by the Axis.
The UK, USA and India will now lose 50 National Morale points per turn that Sydney is occupied
by the Axis.
The UK, USA and India will now lose 50 National Morale points per turn that Wellington is
occupied by the Axis.
The UK and India will now lose 50 National Morale points per turn that Singapore is occupied by
the Axis.
The UK and USA will now lose 50 National Morale points per turn that Calcutta is occupied by the
Axis, while India will lose 75.
The US can now build two Battle Cruisers (Alcibiades73; Steely Glint; Unfortunate Son).
Reduced the penalty from -0.5 to 0.0 for Defender's HQ (Attacker Losses < Defender Losses
(ThisEndUp).
Yalu and Tumen Rivers added in Korea (Alcibiades73).
Amended the Japanese Home Guard scripts to check for Amphibious Transports, with the checks
themselves now checking for longer distances than before, with some randomness built in too
(The Land).
If China surrenders, India will now lose 5,000 National Morale points, and the UK, USA and USSR
2,500 points.
Fixed the National Morale script for when Japan captures Canberra as it was incorrectly firing
when Melbourne was captured (EarlyDoors).
USSR scorched earth settings for Settlement, Town and Fortified Town changed from 30-70% to
60-80% (LoneRunner).
Mongolia now starts as 75% pro-Allied so that diplomacy could get it to join the Allies (Mithrilotter).
Dummy US Decision DE 382 added to trigger an Italian surrender to the US if Italy's National
Morale has fallen below 1%, there is an Allied unit within 8 land hexes of Rome, and there is no
German unit in Rome. This is essentially a fall back script to account for rare occasions where
Italy may not surrender due to other reasons, generally due to her National Morale plummeting
due to multiple scripts firing in a single turn (BigJohn).
Condition Position changed for DE 632 for Germany to raise an Egyptian Legion so that it now
requires there be either a German or Italian unit within 3 hexes of Cairo (The Land).
Dummy Decision DE 163 added to allow historical Pop Up messages of events during the war to
be easily turned OFF by going to Options -> Advanced -> Scripts -> Decision. It is the first one in
the list, and unticking the box on the right will mean that 95% of the messages that are only there
for historical flavor, won't appear. A small number are tied into other Decision Events to ensure
they only appear at the correct time, so they will still appear (Garrison Moratto).
The British AI will now have a Garrison unit in Basra from 1942 onwards to defend against a
Japanese amphibious invasion cutting off the Iraqi convoy (The Land).
Added notes to the Strategy Guides to explain that Ireland, Switzerland, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia
only provide MPPs to the Allies if they join them or are conquered by them, though diplomacy can
prevent Switzerland and Turkey from providing income to the Axis (Mithrilotter).
