Full FoW.
Random weather.
No bombing of HQ unless it is part of a stack.
No dropping of paratroops in isolated manner just to break supply lines. Paras must be used in combined operations with other troops to achieve a military objective.
No freeing the romanians or hungarians before T3. (stay historical)
To prevent a crazy Lvov pocket: germans can't get further east than hex column 56 on T1. This allows bagging most of the soviets along the border, but not the entire SW front before Ivan even moves 1 unit! This only applies south of the Pripyat marshes!

It has been a while since I have been playing this game. I want to improve so all comment and remarks are welcome!
I need to learn more about logistics (all the statistic features) and defensive operations!

Results after main bombing raid!
Almost every airfield within range got bombed 1 time.
I will hold the remains for final bombing when my panzers breach Ivan's lines.

I think I can improve these numbers by moving all possible fighter bases closer to the Russian lines. They certainly must get closer when Pz armies penetrate the lines and attack.
I guess there is also some room for improvement in the 'air doctrine' screen!

Oshawott -> RE: The eagle (0202243) and the bear (CaliJP) (8/22/2014 6:00:26 PM)

I am very impressed with the detail of your AAR. Be careful with the Interdiction settings. You will lose many bombers because the AI will send them on bombing missions without fighter cover.
