Edit: Maybe this is because I suppose Axis forces are not attacked by Soviets, but I'm wondering why in this case I've got 10k casualties.

probably only attrition (patrol, illness, accident ...)

Status: offline 		I conducted a test to see whether heavily damaged Soviet factories are able to be evacuated, and, if so, what damage they would have after evacuation.

I evacuated armament, vehicle and aircraft factories, all with over 50% damage from enemy action. After evacuation of all factories (which is permitted in full), all factories were at 50% damage. In other words, evacuating a heavily damaged factory over hundreds and thousands of miles actually helped to significantly repair the factory in question.

Is this a bug or intended by the game designers? It seems like there should be some penalty to reflect that what the Soviets are moving (machine tools, etc.) have been heavily damages due to air attack or shelling.

Thanks!

Status: offline 		it's working as design
if you move all of a factory it will have 50% damage, if only a part damage will be greater
from the last patch a moved factoty is "locked" for 20 turns (from memory)
as long as there is damage on a factory there is a possibility that it will not produce
furthermore will not "grow" before damage équal zero

Status: offline 		Thanks for your response. But does it make sense for the game to lower the damage done to factory by the mere fact of moving it? For example, if a 99% damaged T-34 factory is moved from Kharkov to the east, it would immediately be a 50% damaged factory.

Naval Rifle Brigades may be used to create Rifle Corps.
Restricted Soviet Rifle brigades so they can’t merge into Rifle Divisions prior to May-1942.


There are a quite number of changes in the game. Leo's done an excellent job on are adding those in red text in the updated living manual. I suggesting making a link to it/opening it manually as u dont open that via the game menu, default is always the original manual.

Name of the file is: WITE-Manual-[US_LETTER]
and is located in manual folder of the game.


Hope it helps,

Rasmus

P.S CF beat me too it, man it take me long to type a 10 line post.....

Also, why do some weapons have load cost and the others do not?

Can the game be downloaded to a Samsung Android tablet? Live 1/2 mile from the beach in Myrtle Beach S.C. Summer is coming on and hard choices are going to have to be made on the Weekends. Taking the game to the beach would be fantastic. Is it possible?

As for the earlier questions re weapons, Jim Wirth would be the best person to answer it. You might PM him.

Joel, the WitE would not run on Android (i.e. Google OS)... new tablets that run on Microsoft Windows 8 (but NOT RT which is for ARM architecture and not PC Intel x86 architecture) are different story though...

I've also saw the initial CAP in the air units, what does it mean?...Close Air Support, maybe?

Great game!

SP - Self Propelled. Usually applied to artillery mounted on a tank chassis.
AC - Armoured Car. Light armoured vehicles used for scouting and recon
CAP - Combat Air Patrol. Fighter aircraft launched to protect a specific area, usually the base and immediate area they are launched from. The number of a/c in the air is maintained throughout the day(light) so only a small number of fighter a/c will ever be in the air compared to those available at the base.

Are we a long way off from this (years) or since the base game is there and the logistic and air system are developed and working in WitW, can we hope to see this in 2015?
