@Schulz said:

@Cernel Thanks, I changed "side" to "defense" and now it works perfectly again.

Does it? I assumed it had to be "defence".

Support attachments don't necessarily need to have different names for each of them.

  1. I think that no support attachment should have the same name as an other support attachment, not even if attached to different units (but I'm not sure in case of different attached units).
  2. I think that those supports (if working) are giving +1 defence to the fighter (not +1 offence) because they are given by offending units. (You need to change the "side" to "defence" to support attacking fighters or to "offence:defence" to support attacking or defending fighters.)

I had given a +1 attack bonus to fighters against surface ships, which used to work, but now it doesn't.

This is a known problem with look and feel, change to Nimbus or Metal to make it go away.

The Soviets can't purchase anything other than conscript and artillery.

The other nations also can't purchase battleships for an unknown reason.
