OOC: If you have whole fighter squadrons escorting your bombers, just group them together into the same air corps and send the whole thing on a bombing run. Alternatively, if you have enough aircraft, you can have independent fighter corps running sup over the target area group while the bombers...

OOC: From the rundown provided by Kan (thanks, btw!), I couldn't tell if it was just a brigade or an Infantry unit with a brigade attachment. In either case I'm iffy about using land-based artillery to support a primary beach landing, but I will submit to the Chiefs of Staff and the Prime...

I know I've come late to this little shindig at Tripoli. Reviewing the plans already set in motion for the assault, I can find no fault in having the CFC division spearhead the assault. Given time, I would strip the artillery from VI Corps and replace it with another naked Infantry division, but...

General Riptide (no relation to the venerated IDC leader), reporting for duty, Sir! *puts glue in PrinceScamp's boots* I'll need a basic rundown of the event, either here or via PM. Troops at my disposal, fleet composition, anticipated opposition to the landing by land, sea and air. If my...

Rather than reprising my former role as rabble-rouser, I wonder if you have any open military positions from which I could be of service? How are we on D-Day?

Wow, Kan...I have to admit that I'm impressed you're still keeping up with this. I profusely apologize for my exceptionally long absence...if any of you remember me at all. Flip back to the first dozen pages or so of this thread if you need a refresher. Has my Churchillian role been claimed...

(Betcha couldn't guess what's coming next....) DUN DUN DUN! An Excerpt from A Speech by the Head of the Imperial Defence Council, Addressing the Houses of Parliament Some commentators noted that the speech was bereft of smugness. Mr. Monzarc made no mention of his previous warnings against...

Hey, now. I think such a scandalous abandonment of our allies would warrant at least three posts, don't you? [:P]

Depends. If a mission is slated to run for a month over a certain territory, but that territory is captured within two weeks, the mission will continue until it's rerouted or the allotted time is up. I know bugger-all about nukes, though, as I've not played a scenario that's taken me longer to...

Austria has a cavalry division, which Hitler inherits upon Anschluss in many games. You probably disbanded it without a second thought in WBTV. And you can move your military anywhere in the Alliance, just not declare war (yet).

If Czechoslovakia, or any other nation on the face of God's green Earth, come under the hostility of the German nation then we should by all means commit every resource available to us to see to it that the hostile force is neutralised. Full stop. To do elsewise would be to impugn our own...

Paratroopers have never been worth the micromanaging, for me...but then again I like massive numbers of armoured units in three-division corps to lace through the enemy's lines.

Taking stock of our current preparedness for war, I must say that while I protest the Munich Agreement I do understand it. It is my private belief that the longer we delay, the greater opportunities we give to Hitler in his own rearmament scheme...his forces are still much-weakened by Versailles...

Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt, reprezent!

But no one really cares about Persia...if this is full IC takeover it'll net you a nice little bump at no partisan cost.

Why deal with the partisans? It's gotta have like a half an IC and maybe only a little itty bit of oil...not worth it. Persia, on the other hand...

Yes, but that's after two World Wars. We're talking about events before them that could have gone differently, thus precipitating a change of relations ;)

Actually if Willy had been a bit more conciliatory toward the British in a number of respects, the British would likely have allied with Germany in WWI. They had been closer in relations than England and France for a very long time...Napoleon was still quite fresh in Britain's national...

Well I haven't gotten to the point of the Japos declaring war or not, but I've followed along with Landon to build the most awesomest Navy in the entire frigging world (working on my fourth Carrier Task Force, have several Surface Assault Groupings and ASW Groups, and have a couple Sub...
