Land bases with no units or supplies are very difficult to spot. For example, there is one such base here... find it out -- I stumbled on it purely by accident: [:D] fbs [image]local://upfiles/30872/0BAE13476922423599B7B18C363F5DC5.jpg[/image]

This is the base, btw. Perhaps land bases with no flags could have a bigger dot to mark them? Or a little rectangle? Even an arrow saying "<-- Base is here" would work (hahaha) [:D] Thanks! fbs [image]local://upfiles/30872/1A7A20DE7D3B4247B9FA74C061434106.jpg[/image]

That base is one that flags up in the Ops report as failing the garrison requirements - took me ages to find it. I admit this is the hardest of many 'dot bases' to find. Perhaps it conveys the problems of the leaders of the time due to poor maps.

"dot bases" are dots because they have no airbase or port. Yeah that particular one is tough to find but necessary because it starts with an insufficient garrison.

You might find reason to put some supply there [;)]

Sardaukar -> RE: Land bases with no units or supplies (8/18/2009 9:45:14 AM)
As Allies, I definitely want that base getting garrison problems....that is, if this one is in Burma as it looks like. [:D]

Sardaukar -> RE: Land bases with no units or supplies (8/18/2009 2:06:59 PM)
If that had been in Indochina or Burma..I'd suspect heroin laboratory...[:D] 100 resources but nothing showing on map...hmm...[:'(]

fbs -> RE: Land bases with no units or supplies (8/18/2009 2:22:27 PM)
Some islands have the same problem -- the dot is too small to clearly see it. Many times I click on an island just to see if there is a dot there or not. I'd say we need a bigger dot [:D] Thanks, fbs

Admiral Scott -> RE: Land bases with no units or supplies (8/18/2009 2:25:09 PM)
i cant see the dot at all!

Curty -> RE: Land bases with no units or supplies (8/18/2009 2:31:57 PM)
If you look again you can see 3 dot hexes, theres one in the se corner[:'(]

stuman -> RE: Land bases with no units or supplies (8/18/2009 4:36:08 PM)
I found that if you punch the " r " key and look at the road network it can help you find some " dot " bases. There are some some places that might make nice air bases depending upon how ones game is going. And also a 121 resource dot base near Nanchang (sp ? ) IIRC.

V22 Osprey -> RE: Land bases with no units or supplies (8/18/2009 7:13:37 PM)
It's like an "I Spy" game in here.[:'(] I spy with my little eye, a bunch of useless dot bases.[:D]

Just pull up the base list, reference the name, and click on the right side column, and poof, it will take you to the hex. quote: ORIGINAL: FOW That base is one that flags up in the Ops report as failing the garrison requirements - took me ages to find it.
