@ubernaut That's why they make airplanes.
And just be patient. @redrum is busy with work, but we are making steady progress and there should be a good chance it will be released when the new Stable Engine is finally unveiled!

One more little bit... we'll call it my test to gauge the degree of Pavlovian response...

had a few gifs that made more sense in context to the previous reply

You already got ideas about the issue of moving planes across the atlantic, or anyway vast expanse of water? Since in WW1 nobody starts with carriers, or the ability of producing any, there is usually the issue that if you place fighters in America, you shouldn't be able to get them to Europe, as TripleA doesn't allow shipping air units and jumping the reverse of the Viking route wouldn't make much sense.
-
@Cernel The US should be allowed to build (or receive by event) a factory in Bordeaux. Why should the American player need to build transports to get across the Atlantic? You can reflect the costs of transportation by increasing unit costs or reducing US income.
-
@RogerCooper Not really sure I'd be up for that for 2 reasons...
-
The Americans in this could join either side of the conflict. So I wouldn't want to arbitrarily decide on hypothetical production locations, since there would be no guarantee the chosen territories would even be in Allied hands by the time the Americans join the fight.
-
The Shipping lanes provide for quick passage across the Atlantic (and the entire Globe) if you have command of the oceans. So there will be a good little dynamic to fight to keep shipping lanes open.
-
-
@Hepps Right, but then how do you get the fighters you produce in America to Europe was my question?
-
@Cernel All shall be revealed in time.
-
And since I am truly a people pleaser... let the chef give but a little taste from the kitchen...
-
I'm so intrigued right now! But I love where my imagination just took this. Looks major!
A new way to handle this issue with the production/movement logistics of pushing heavy units to the front would be rad. -
@Black_Elk Well now I'm so intrigued to know where your imagination took that!
-
So just finished the naval... Here's the final spoiler...
-
@Hepps is that a mine layer?
-
@ubernaut That it is.
-
@Hepps nice one
-
Badass there on the water!
Haha thought I had was kind of logistics/fog of war oriented. Just had a flash of like unmarked crates of heavy equipment, where the opponent might not know what was purchased or is being shipped across the sea until it arrives, is unboxed and mobilized. Could work for anything non infantry I suppose. But yeah even just seeing the air box in the snapshop above, something about it just makes you want to put those uboats on the hunt even more hehe. Nice work
