Some inputs:
1). Suez canal was blocking supply after axis forces had captured the canal.
2). The Aerial Combat upgrade for China does not work. Chinese fighters can still only do 1 intercept even with this area researched.

Thoughts: Greece went Axis with only 3% leaning toward axis in the diplomatic window.

Can we add an option to turn off the lend lease programs at some future point in the game. At some point I find the recipient nation's need for lend lease is no longer of any value but the MPP's are of value to the lending nation. Since it is a political decision on this program, you should be able to end the program when the player wants too.

I have played two games as the Allies and have never seen a single partisan attack in Russia. The options are selected in the scripts. I have seen Greece and France partisan attacks as well as destroyed installations for other countries at first conquer, but I have yet to see any other partisan problems for the AI when it plays the Axis.

The AI seems to be able to initial place units and use them immediately whereas a players newly placed units have zero AP.

I still disagree with the Afrika Korps being deployed in Africa for the AI but the player has to deploy in Italy which incurs the extra cost of rebuild plus transport plus run the risk of naval interference. The AK should deploy in Africa, period, unless the area is overrun.

Hi

1) This is determined by the control of Cairo, with that in Axis hands then the supply will cease. Otherwise it would get a bit complicated in terms of trigger hexes, possibly requiring the Allies to place units in strange places.

2) I've just checked in the 1939 World at War campaign and Aerial Warfare is set to increase Chinese Fighters' Interceptions and Escorts. Is it definitely that category that has been successfully researched?


I'm confused with Greece joining the Axis like that as there is only one script that can move it towards the Axis, and that is if the Allies declare war on Turkey. It can only move it 5-10% though.

I presume this is an official campaign and not a mod you're playing as I can't see how that could happen.


The US can adjust its convoy to the UK via the Convoys Map (accessible via WarMaps).

However, if the US is sending supplies to the USSR via the Pacific then I'm afraid we have no mechanism allowing that to be changed during the game.


I can only suspect that the Axis AI is covering all Partisan locations in the USSR with units, but it isn't doing so elsewhere. That may change if the tide goes against the Axis, but it doesn't get a free pass with Partisans, i.e. the scripts are set to apply in all types of game.

Thank you for responding.

Yes, Cairo was in Axis hands as well as Suez and supply was blocked to Abbysinia.

Yes, Aerial Warfare was researched and the Chinese fighters only got one shot.

Yes, Greece was only 3% and they joined the Axis through diplomacy. Turkey was neutral.

Yes, official campaign. I just did another complete playthrough as the Allies and only one instance of Soviet partisan activity happened in Jan of 1944 when one partisan unit appeared near Brest-Litosk. NO other partisan activity in Russia at any time. I looked at Axis unit locations and not every location was covered. In fact, most of the USSR behind the lines was vacant of units.

I was unaware you could stop lend lease via the war map convoy map. How exactly is that done? Can we add a way to cancel US lend lease to the USSR via the pacific as well?

If you go to war maps at the top menu, then convoy maps, click on the convoy you can change the amount going to the UK and from the UK to USSR. The same with India to UK

I'm not sure why as I've double checked everything here, maybe installing the latest patch will fix these things for you?

In terms of Partisans, it's not impossible as the chance of them being active is fairly low, but if many locations were empty normally we would expect to see more.

I'm afraid that US aid to the USSR via the Pacific cannot be changed during the game.

Do you have a save you can send the devs?




gdpsnake1979 -> RE: Bugs and suggestions (7/10/2019 6:40:26 PM)

Sorry, I don't have a save as I press on replaying new games and situations. I usually play through, make notes, and recap in the end. I'm not helping my case so I will try getting save points for future reports.
