      @trout I think you posted the wrong actual game save - I see the results of course but the file is still in the ANZAC precombat phase

      I wonder if I can hold onto the Philippines

          Was ist das? Tha BB with a C is part of the new rules right? I don't know how that works and cannot find it in the rules yet.

            Hi Cat

            Yea battle calc can you get you close but you need to tweak it sometimes. In the case of the Trprts you could replace them with Submarines as they both defend at 1 and run the calc and compare the difference.

            The defender would also need a DD or Escort or the Subs defending would skew with their First Strike.

            Most experienced/Top Tier players avoid large battles due to the fact they can be dicey. Especially Naval.

            I generally only do it if I'm losing, the odds are heavy in my favor or if I think the result of leaving the large stack intact is even more dangerous the next turn.

            Naval battles can be especially dicey.

            With the large number of units in HRE, it is harder to cipher, which is what produces the variety of strategies and tactical ways to achieve them but it also gives some good ideas none the less

            I need to clarify the in Game Notes. You need to edit in an Active NC. It has a red C. Then it will give the bonus

                Another way to test stuff besides using the battle calc, is to switch to low luck before you fire up the save.

                Then fight the battle. You have to still take the correct PE casualties and it won't give a percentage but it will give you pretty close to a average dice result.

                      @johnnycat I think big gambles are what you live for as best I can tell when it comes to your strategies in this game 🙂

                        @trout hmm good to know that then.

                        Ok then I’ll switch to a more conservative plan. I don’t want to be predictable haha.

                            OKkidoke here is Turn 7 Germany complete- but BIG ISSUE: The minor factory is for GREECE and the game acted weird (Mac issues maybe?) and will not allow me to place the factory in Greece.

                            So I TEMPORARILY placed it in Romania but it is not there.

                            @beelee Can you help with this? Or can @trout just move it during his turn in one of his edits? Thank you

                              Hmm ... I just tried using your previous french save or trouts and it works for me.

                              Sometimes edit can mess stuff up but I haven't seen it this situation before

                                        Gents,

                                        Please tell me what are these units. While I was playing against the computer as the good guys, the germans just plopped down a bunch of ME-262s that they did not purchase but, somehow, moved onto the map from the upper boxes.

                                        Before we even complete this turn and figure out this minior factory not being placed in Greece glitch I would like to clarify these units and if Germany is going to get free units?

                                        I have seen Japan get free units all throughout the game but never once gotten free units for Germany .

                                        THANK YOU

                                        EDIT I found a way to make the factory fit !!! So please let me get that file up before we continue. THANKS so much.

                                          This is the correct map and all seems to be correct.

                                          I just redid the turn and got the same results and this time it just worked fine and I was able to place the factory. I might want to move this to my PC desktop... gotta think about that but that might be better.

                                            Yea those are just the special Air units for the Air Fleets. I just put them there so you don't have to edit them in and out so much.

                                            Can just select the ones you need. So yea no Free dudes for the Reich
