The part where a general not being available to be promoted being angry - that is working as intended .... I'm sure it's to simulate a general that yes, has seniority, but has no accomplishment to his name, and yet still illogically demands he be promoted over someone more deserving. If I take a na...

I'm in micromanaging hell trying to attach Austro-Hungarian troops of different nationalities to leaders with the according tags. Is it really worth it? Can't find a clue in the manual about how this affects combat stats. Any input would be welcome!

Now I am confused. I thought that sea mines was such a neat feature. I'm in the process of capturing Memel and send transport ships. I also have a minesweeper quadron. Now you are telling me I cannot clear the mines and the minesweeper is useless? Or that neither minesweepers nor mines have an effe...

Even knowing who is promotable doesn't help because you need to know who has the most seniority. The tooltip only gives you the next in line, not the top of the heap which is what you really need. Also it seems that Austrian 3 star generals are considered in the German chain of seniority so to make...

This includes all new officers I order and all I get as CP during the first 1915 turn. Koenig Ernst August II., whom I had from the beginning, changes from 4-2-1 to 2-0-0. Stupid l...

Thanks Merlin! I'm December '14 with CP, counting 83 batteries all together. So about 10 factories should cover it I guess...

About how many factories would you advise to build, if I may ask?

Tanks guys, that was quick and clear! Didn't consider range & rate of fire.

So ist there a point in building extra field artillery at all? Those small guns come with infantry regiments anyway, right?

Hi! I'm playing as CP right now. Trying to figure out the disadvantages of field artillery units vs medium. Medium artillery: 61 gold, 75 war supplies, 8 conscripts, 45 days to build, combat power 13, uses ammunition Field artillery: 30 gold, 10 war supplies, 8 conscripts, 30 days to build, combat p...

For hunting in the box, or travel only? I mean, do they avoid warships and still sink merchants with these settings?
