A deity level issue...
I will give them some entertainment!

OK,2. I think the Rising Sun on the Japanese Cities is a little too big, just kind of sticks out and looks a little weird |
I will look into that!

OK,3. You might want to possibly give the Americans more buildings to build from the start. Meaning that there should be less buildings in each city, but only 1 or 2, because I was starting a full military build-up by October of 1940 after I built everything I wanted to. |
I will have a look at that, dude!

OK,4. I think Pittsburgh should have more production than 11 (I believe that is what it is) Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Detroit produced a lot of the war materials, and the actual weapons. |
Good point, I will upgrade Pittsburgh!
(I have an American friend from there, oddly enough!)

OK,5. The new camo pattern looks good on the German motorized infantry, but I think instead of the gray you should use a dark brown or something similar |
Hmmm, I might just do it!

OK,6. Germans should be able to attack first in Operation Barbarossa. Perhaps by making it a technology driven event and giving the Germans a tech on that turn, the war won't start until their turn? |
Good idea!
I will implement this!

OK,That's it for now, so far I have written down everything that has happened in the game. From which cities were taken on which turns to the techs developed by the other nations. I'll post that either at the end of my game, or sometime later today.

Excellent!
Thanks a lot, Pap!
I am going to go and work on that Barbarossa problem!

Up to September 1943, a couple a more things...
1. In April of 1943 there was the message about the B-17's and P-47s. I haven't found any P-47's are they in the scenario? If yes, I cannot find them, if no, I don't think they should be mentioned.
2. Did you wait until April of 1943 for the B-17 to have it represent the B-17G version? Because B-17's were available the whole war, but the B-17G was definately the most famous and built in the most numbers.
3. Despite the B-17 being the most famous bomber of the war for the Americans, the B-24 Liberator was the most numerous. It was actually the most numerous of any other four engine bomber in the war. It could also carry a bigger bombload, travel further, and take more punishment than the B-17, just an idea there. But with the B-24 you would most likely wait until the B-24J which wasn't really operational until early 1944.
4. Just thought I would tell you there was a hell of a nice attack by the Japs on Hong Kong. They used Val's, ships, infantry, tanks and Zeros. I was very impressed.
Right now in my game the Third Reich is wilting under the pressure, they haven't pushed at all into Russia, the only city they took was Odessa. Warsaw has changed hands between the two about 5 times though, it is all the way down to a 5 population, but I think the Russians might keep it the rest of the war. I have a foothold in France with Brest and St. Nazaire. I had Toulouse, but it got recaptured. I conquered all of South America after the Neutral Allies started demanding techs from me to keep me alive. Japan is very strong right now. I think they have the number 1 or number 2 military, with the British right there with them. Both of them have very impressive navies, but I've yet to see any British ground units.

I know, I just kept reference this as an indication of the varied planes used in the strategic bombing campaign.

The dawn of the strategic bombing campaign was april/may 1943, that is why I use this date...
I could make a generic B17 and have the US use it throughout the war...

Same reason I had to drop cool planes like the Mosquito, Fw190 and He111, if only CIV2 had enough slots!
My multi-units scenario will solve this!

I have seen some great actions around Formosa and Manila too! (not personally!)
Pity the Germans are not quite as inspired!

I have made some changes, The superbattleship now as it's own tech, I think it unbalances things if it is brought in too early.
There has been some changes in the events and rules too, the commandos and Brit ground units will make themselves felt now!
Yes, the Japanese are damn good at fighting I notice!
Do you think the Germans need beefing up a little?
Extra units at the dawn of Barbarossa, perhaps?

Curt I've been trying to come up with ways to get Barbarossa to work right and I can't think of a damn thing. But wait, I just thought of something...
Ok, on the turn you want Barbarossa, make a very weak British unit, right in the heart of Germany, then make an event UNITKILLED, then you have Germany and Soviets go to war. This is not a great solution, but it is the only thing I can think of.

That should work, but no garuntees, you'll have to count on the AI killing that unit because it is the whole trigger.

Sounds interesting!
Can any of you chaps try this out?
I am going to see if giving the Barbarossa tech (under the name of axis attack) to japan makes any difference to who gets to atatck.
There should be a 'sneakattack' as well as a 'makeaggression' trigger, methinks!

... its strange but your second mail included a *.bat file again! 
Why not having regions on that map which are as full as possible with cities?
