still seeing fishy stats, for example one player has joined 1 game and has 6 coalition wins!

reported it in game, the rocket was launched at a city, the arty in that city was credited with killing the rocket. this might be just another 'fake news' issue?

saw that several times, and not just in FP games. another new bug in FP: conventional howitzer units can shoot down ballistic rockets. not flying bombs, the V-2 rockets.

Planes do not 'run out of fuel" in CoW. Neither do they, or any unit, run out of ammo. Such foolishness would make CoW far too realistic. An active player can re-route planes that are returning to base, as long as the new destination is within the 90 degree cone.

All revolts are now reported as "suppressed", whether successful or not.

Quote from BladeFisher: “So how can a convoy with just cargo, no naval support defeat a battleship? ” the transports are armed, albeit only a couple of 3 inch fifties, but if there are many of them, they have a chance against destroyers, at least, but not likely against cruisers and BB.. the biggest failing of naval warfare in CoW is that ships cannot fire while moving. When is a ship at sea not moving?

sarcasm wasted

Mensuration tools and grid coordinates have been requested many times; to no avail. Such features would make CoW look too much like a combat game.

try this: In the spy report, click on the province name that the 'missing' spies are damaging. they might show up, but overall, espionage is perhaps the most fault prone of all the odd ball mechanics of CoW.

trade seems the same, only available on new games?

Any capitol city left unguarded for IgnorAnt (IA) units to take, deserves the loss.

FP and was available to new players at one time, not sure if still true?

the rank issue is unsolvable with the current system. the plan is to replace ranks with a new entitlement system, needless to say, that will be based on patronage.

now available thru the strategic advisor. this will be VERY entertaining, if released for all maps. be prepared to see 'new' players with 100% province morale, 6 types of research finished, and at least 2 buildings completed in all core cities within the first few hours.

Quote from noblebright: “That isnt an error. Its a game mechanic. With spies, you have a certain chance of them succeeding, a certain chance of them getting captured, and a certain chance of them just failing. You must have been just very unlucky. ” The delay in updating the spy reports IS a long standing game fault. Sometimes a full day goes by before the reports are updated. You can check for yourself: Click on a province where you put spies, notice if any buildings are damaged, or morale redu…

Sadly, due to the excessively high drop out rate, most games wind up with 10 or less players after the first week. At that point it is necessary to start the arcade mode of CoW. Sometimes results in amusing behaviours, when a player with large forces quits in fustration over being attacked by 5 IgnorAnt (IA) countries, the server will continue to service programmed forces fighting each other.

There are also many instances where the spy reports are NOT recorded for hours, sometimes not shown until the next logout/login cycle.

"This never happened before," Rank problems have been glitched off an on thru the life time of CoW. Some of the damage was never repaired in FP accounts a few years back. The bigger question is" If and when a new rank system is rolled out, will it be any more reliable?
