    6thDragon - - Questions and Answers

    I’ve seen players that go AI at day change as the game ends, still get the gold.

  • Quote from Lord Crayfish: “Quote from 6thDragon: “It often leads to odd results as it tends to give extra weight to highly specialized units. ” I believe interceptors and strategic bombers both skew it significantly. ” Generally speaking, all air skews it. All air units tend to be specialized. Tacs against unarmored, ABs against heavy armor, interceptors against other air, NBs against ships, strats against buildings. But that same logic can be extended to other units. Cruisers tend to be rated h…

  • It's a little more complicated. It's calculated based on the "strength" of each unit. If you look at the army details, scroll most of the way down and it'll show you unit by unit what the strength is. This is fairly straightforward in that it's the unit's highest attack or defense value against a specific armor type. It often leads to odd results as it tends to give extra weight to highly specialized units.

  • I’ve lost carrier based planes for hours with them flying around the world and had other carrier based planes dumped in the ocean, however the relationship bugs were the most infuriating. Players could take out an air strip, change their relationship with you to ROW and your planes would land on their territory. Or you could be collocated on a province with a partner and the enemy could unilaterally change their relationship to peace with one of you allowing them to isolate bombardment damage to…

  • I use to join with alliance mates fairly often but we don’t do any of the backstabbing map share shenanigans. Joining with a few players you can trust is a huge asset.

  • Quote from NEPTUNE the great: “Quote from Joe Bartolozzi: “I'm sad that militias has been nerfed, anyways, like how the above statements have stated, I will still try militia once and then decide whether I should kick them or not. ” Agreed, though I've never used Militia before, thought they were useless. ” There’s nothing like learning a unit is overpowered after it’s nerfed. Militia was never an unstoppable front line unit, actually the opposite. It was best used along lightly defended fronts …

  • If I were making the decision, I would have removed militias stealth while on enemy territory. They were intended to be a defensive unit for ambushing. Commandos were intended for operating behind enemy lines.

  • Quote from Lord Crayfish: “Quote from 6thDragon: “Only time I ever played HWW, I joined as Japan. I knew to wait and look for a new map to drop, but usually do that when joining with alliance mates anyway. In my experience, as I fully expected, all the major powers were taken rather quickly. ” It's hard enough (and game breaking enough, on par with heavy gold use) to coordinate joining a WaW together as an alliance. I can't imagine the organisational charlie foxtrot of getting everybody to join …

  • Quote from NEPTUNE the great: “Quote from Claudio NVKP: “Am I lucky though.... Every time I want Germany I've gotten it, other countries not so the case. ” I've been waiting for a chance to Play as Japan in 1939 World At War for a long time ” Only time I ever played HWW, I joined as Japan. I knew to wait and look for a new map to drop, but usually do that when joining with alliance mates anyway. In my experience, as I fully expected, all the major powers were taken rather quickly.

  • Quote from NEPTUNE the great: “Tank destroyers are actually useful for once! ” I suppose that depends on doctrine preference. I don’t think this definitely makes TDs any better than they were before. Their stealth ability was never that great and adding plains shouldn’t change much. For the terrain bonuses, they lost their urban bonus in exchange for plains. Probably not worth starting to use them just for that. The commandos stealth ability was always a joke before and militia was always OP. Pa…

    Yes, the stealth imbalance between militia and commandos has been my primary reason for never building commandos. Now they might be worth trying.

    Those all appear to be defensive units and you're better off letting them attack you, especially with you having home defense advantages. Your units will certainly get beat up, but you'll have enough advantages to come out on top.

    Quote from A Eastman: “Quote from Meowy Mittens: “Absolutely enable your gold notification, it should be disabled by default. I believe the chances are you spent it without realizing. You could send a support ticket regarding you would like, I've heard they can handle issues like this. callofwar.com/index.php?id=279 ” Over two weeks and no answer or reply saying they are working on it plus all the other things that continue to happen.

  • Alliances?

    Quote from A Eastman: “Quote from SamPGS_17: “How active or in demand are alliances in this game? I'm aware the very top alliances are probably active af, but obviously I have no chance (and don't want to) get into them - so what's the average alliance like? It just seems to me that not many people care about alliances. Also, if anyone could explain more about alliance battles or whatever it's called? thanks! ” To me if they are playing AvA that is good but if a strong A goes into a reguler say …

  • Gold Use Suggestion

    6thDragon - - Suggestions / Criticism

    Post

    I’d much prefer to pay to play on a level playing field. It’s getting harder and harder to play this as a strategy game anymore. For all the gold checked maps, consider all time and effort that goes into gold checks and appropriate sanctions for both accidental and intentional use. The admins running those maps are volunteers. If Bytro doesn’t value their volunteers time enough to make maps where gold use isn’t an option, nothing will change this.

  • They will not heal if at sea or based from an ally’s territory. They need to be on your own territory to heal.

    Quote from Nostroma: “Quote from 6thDragon: “I had another alliance mate report a team for wolfpacking. There were seven on the WaW map from the same alliance. They reported it and only one of them got kicked still leaving six. I always understood it to be anything over the coalition limit on a map is wolfpacking. Rules are very unevenly enforced, unfortunately. ” This is a tough one...If I join a big map and see by chance that there are 5 others of my alliance already in the game (without havin…

  • I really don’t think Bytro is overly concerned about the historical accuracy. Consider two points. First land battles between experienced players usually involve railroad guns as the dominant unit. Second regular maps anyone tend to be dominated by gold/card use. Creating units and resources out of nowhere is the logical equivalent of calling on your fairy godmother.

  • Another point to consider, building stacks like that are expensive, putting them together often leaves other areas under defend as they are concentrating resources on that stack. You could have opportunities to threaten them in other places. You have to analyze the map and consider that possibility.

    Quote from K.Rokossovski: “Bytro doing something about this? This is how they feed their developers and all the other staff and the kids of all that staff and sometimes they all go on vacation to Bali as well... ” Bytro probably is doing something about this…celebrating!
