General comment:Answers on posts:

If you follow the WW2-Global, TGW and Barbarossa threads
you know that I try to answer all posters.

There are exceptions though.
I do not answer:

1. Hostile provocations. For example:

"Your scenario is really worthless. The reason:
I have 64 MB RAM and processor 200 Mhz. Still I have to wait
15 seconds between turns."

I seldom answer such posts. I do remember the poster though.
I have a very good memory.

The above is from the Barbarossa-thread, but it holds
true here also.

This is the worst senario ever made. It doesn't work at all. When you try to use it your computer freezes up solid and won't even let you get to the first turn. What is the point of discussing this idiotic senario at all? How is it that anyone is using this senario at all? Its impossible to even start it at all. What do you need a NASA supercomputer to play it or something? Because I got one reall fast really powerful computer and it can't do it at all? This senario is a complete and total joke.

Mprilla, you are not fair and you seem in no way polite. I don´t say you are an idiot because after studying page 1 you would have been able to see that it can last a while until the scenario is loaded. Also there are saved game. No I don´t say that but I say you are not polite here to ask what error you might have. Also your trolling concerning the nations is You can tell your opinion and you can leave the scenario. This is your choice. But trolling here is unfair and is not the best kind. You are lucky that you are a newbie here.
Constructive critics are wellcome but that is not the kind YOU told your opinion.
I won´t comment any of your trolling posts any more.

Great Britain - ver 1.5 - Emperor
Weeks 27-52 1940

All in all a static period.

Week 27 We take Caluula

Week 30 Germans send a few Destroyer Flotillas out. We kill most buy not easily - not sure I like this unit but the AI loves it. Germans land two units north of Edinborough but we kill them. I see American units rushing north to Alaska - are the Japanese near?

Week 32 Americans attempt landing on Sardinia but with only one marine?
I send units up to Alaska but see no Japanese.

Week 33 Addis Ababa is ours. Looks like the Italians are pulling their air force out of Africa.

Week 36 Gimbi falls - Italy is out of Africa!

During these weeks we have been bombing Japanese, German, Italian units near Meshed and Quetta. Looks like the Japanese are now pulling ouf of India. I see them coming out of Turkey towards Jerusalem. I have Mobile Artillery now and the tide is beginning to turn as we are actually killnig units. In the middle of all this Germany takes Paris.

Week 46 - Russian units appearing in Turkey! First time we have seen them. Germans take Brest.

Week 47 - We take Damascus - we are on the offensive now. French helping out. Russians in force of about 30 units. We increase trade with Russia.

Week 48 - 28 Russain units in Turkey and 10 more have crossed the border into our territory. We give them 50 GPT and then demand they leave. They do leave.

We 51 We take Adanz but each turn we must demand the Russians leave our territory and each turn their forces grwo.

Week 52 Antalya taken but destroyed because of 1 pop and low culture. Russians leave but are not happy - They have a force of 6 Cossacks, 3 marinese, 5 MRD, 19T26 and 12 infantry - all but the marines are Regular units. However, the mere size of the force means trouble. I would like to finish off the Germans in Adana Izmir before dealing with the Russians. I have been cautious up to now because of this. Wish I could get the Japanese to declare war on Russia!

Seems the Japanese have been stopped by the air power. Russians will probably be handled the same for a while. The Germans are obviously trying to finish off continental Europe.

Bob1475,

Thank you for the report.

Interesting that Germany-AI produces Destroyer-flotillas.

The US landing at Sardinia- Strange.

When I read about the Russian forces in Turkey, I think it was
a good idea to make Persia-Iraq British control after all.
It will be interesting to see where German-AI will turn after
defeating France.

Thank you and welcome back.

Japan - End 1943 - 1.3


Summary of the events :

1) After the complete collapse of the Soviet army in my chineses lands, they immediatly sue for peace. -> The negociations where thoughts, and I get some of their cities. The Japanese Empire include now area from Hawaii to Mongolia and Pakistan.
In Siberia, our offensive has cut Russia in two parts because our troops have reached the artic. Kamchatka peninsula is now totaly cutted from the rest of Russia.
Note : My axis allies are pure crap !!! They lost territories like Warsaw, Koenigsberg and Budapest to the SU...

2) I'm now able to relocate a big part of my troops in the conquest of Australia and the reconquest of all US islands.
Even with my current pretty successful US ships hunting (8 BB in the year), their production was able to multiplicate their number by 2 within the year (now they have 18BB)!

3) British counter attacks are becoming annoying, using King George Class ship and long range Bombers. I must destroy their bases !


I love my current game. really interesting

Ok, ok, kid - You're not a troll. You're just a baby. You'll know you are grown-up when you can drink beer:
"Milk is for babies. When you're a man you'll drink beer"
--The Governator (early years)

If you are done crying, you can download a saved game from the first page. Then you're old machine won't matter so much. On a 3.2 gHz P4 with 2 GIGs of memory, the game takes 15-20 minutes to launch the first time, a fairly long amount of time at the end of the first 2-3 turns (maybe 10 minutes each), then about a minute (or two) between each turn thereafter.

If you want a World War 2-game you won't have to wait for, go buy Axis and Allies from Toys-R-Us. Oh wait, then you'd need some friends ... vicious circle this

First you make 2 downloads rather than one. Mistake 1.

Mistake 2 you use winzip rather than winrar. Normal people use winrar because it compresses files smaller than winzip. And that would mean your uploading time is less and our downloading time is less but you didn't do that.

Mistake 3 you added nations like argentena and brazil that have nothing at all to do with WW II and made a hugh unplayable senario. This senario won't even start for me and I have an incredibly fast and powerful computer. It frezzes up every time when I try to start it. You also assigned too many units to every nation. I can tell because I used the editor to look at your senario. It is an insane unplayable unusable senario. Thanks for wasting my time when I downloaded it. Thanks for nothing. It doesn't work so everyone should not download it and not bother with it. It just frezzes up and does nothing at all. What a waste of time and effort. Thank you for ruining my day.

You know, I wasn't going to respond to this. But, I needed a little spice on my Friday morning, so here it goes.

1. Why is that a mistake? So, you have to download the .biq file seperately .. who cares? As long as you read the instructions, you will install this with no errors. I don't really see why this is a big deal.

2. I would love to know your definition of "normal" people. I have been in online communities since 1999, and the zip program of choice in every one of them has been Winzip. Now, that doesn't mean that "normal" people use Winzip either. I find making generalizations like that is kinda silly since you are always wrong.

3. It might be unplayable for you, but not for a lot of other people. Did you really think that a thread with over 1,500 posts in it would be in support of an unplayable scenario?

Bottom line, your post is so self-centered it's not even funny(well, it is funny in a weird sort of way). Please remember there are other people in the world who have different opinions then yours.

Rocoteh .. let me take this opportunity to thank you again for this scenario and all the hard work you put into it. I, for one, truly appreciate it (and I'm sure I'm not alone).

Interesting. My computer is a AMD Athlon 2GHz. I started with 512MB of RAM and it took about an hour for the scenario to initialize. I posted turn times about 10 or so pages back, but it was taking the computer about 1/2 hour per turn to chew on it's moves. When I upgraded my memory to 1.5GB, it cut the turn times in half(1 turn takes me about 15 minutes now). This effect would probably happen by upgrading to 1GB total, but I just bought a 1GB stick (and no, I didn't buy it specifically for this scenario). On my computer at least, my available physical memory was almost 0 before running anything, so you might want to look at that.

That'll be the last helpful reply from me, as your attitude is that of a 10 year old spoiled brat. You truly think people are going to listen to you coming off like that? Fix it or take it down just because you can't play it?? Someone forgot to take their medication this morning.

Makes me wish I didn't upgrade I'll have to start a Japanese game soon, but I want to see the American game through first. I haven't even started building units yet (still building infrastructure), and it's week 6, 1940. It looks like I'll have America ready to join in the war a little earlier then what is historically accurate (I should be ready for an European invasion by mid 1941 hopefully).

P.S.Y.C.H.O.,

Happy birthday!

I will resume work with the 362x326 scenario next week.

Rocoteh

Thanks, Rocoteh!

I'm really looking forward to the 362x326 scenario...

Does anyone else feel like lynching Mprilla?
I sure as hell do...

LBPB,

I am glad to hear that.

Your strategic situation really looks good. Germany-AI is a problem
though.

Do you plan to finish off Soviet now or will you turn in another direction?

Thank you and welcome back.

Do you really think this is an hight end computer ???

I just replaced mine who was approx the same, because most games are becoming laggish...

I've got now an
PIV 3,4GHz
1Go RAM
Asus Motherboard
and a GeForce 6800GT

That's an high end computer.
It takes me only 8mn to configure the Scenario and 40second max between turns ingame.

-----------

Now flaming Roco for the waiting time is really stupid !!!
Remember that he has worked hard to create such scenario, and a large amount of people is happy with this scenario.

USE a savegame posted in the beginning of the thread then you haven't to wait for configuration

To finish, if you don't like ww2 global, try another WW2 based scenario, there are others available here at CFC, then tell us if your waiting time will be shorter...

That's why I didn't start anew game atm

Roco,
No I don't plan to finish off the soviets.
I'm currently returning all my might against Australia and the remnant US islands.
If I'm successful, my next move will be on Alaska. I plan to drop a beachead there and draw as much US and Canadian troops as possible... then I will launch my real attack, a landing on Californian coasts

Wow. ROFL. Mprilla is truly the first real idiot I've seen post on the CivFanatics board.

Ask your mommy for an increase in your allowance and upgrade your computer or just learn some patience. This is the best scenario out there and if you didn't come off like a moron, people would have helped you the best they can. As it is, we're all just laughing at you and enjoying your problems, both computer and mental ones...

And my computer's specs are fairly similiar to yours and I have no problems at all... And it seems quite a few people run the game fine on similiar machines and have no problems. So, empirical data seems to indicate that the problem might be YOU... Hard to believe, I know.

 

[andis-1]

I'm currently on week 48, and now all continental France, Spain, Portugal and Gibraltar is mine. Allso my invasion to scandinavia is going well, already taken oslo, gothenburg and västervik. After allies allmost destroyed my whole U-Boat fleet, I've now rebuilded it to ~30 U-Boats and they are now operating from new harbours in France and Spain. I'm now causing heavy casulties to allied navies.
Btw, has anyone seen AI attacking Destroyer flotilla, cos in my game they haven't. example: Italian Flotilla attacks and sinks US CA, but 7 other CA's in that stack won't attack the flotilla! I'm a bit afraid that flotillas are like armies, when AI thinks it has now change of winning it won't attack . I'm not sure about this, I'll build couple flotillas and watch if AI attack's them.
