Seconding 1 and 2.

Currently, Brittan is no real threat in the European theater since they cannot strike at France with amphibious landings. All they can do is cut off trade and sink enemy ships. If you focus on land development in Western Europe it's as if GB isn't even there.

I'm also getting sick of the reinforcements the enemy gets, which should appear behind the enemy appear behind me. Also i'm sick of my own reinforcements doing the same! I need my men to enter the field close to me, not so far away they end up dead before I can support them.

I took care to advance with no enemy at my back, yet there they are. It's very frustrating.

Fix the bug where conquered territories do not seem to be developing trade routes from their ports, even when there is a commercial port there. Given how important trade can be, this is a big one, if you ask me.

Reinforcements, as others have stated.

The multi-player issue sounds serious as well. That seems rather base and shouldn't be very difficult to fix. Could be a Steam issue, though.

Ideally, starting small on the AI transporting land troops via navies. Better they not do it enough than go totally berzerk as a starting point.

sort out BSOD.

Sort out whatever they did in the last patch that means I can't get past the copyright screen?

**Biggley** · 03-14-2009, 17:22

id imagine that will be the BSOD striking again.

Definitely the reinforcement issue and the lack of naval invasions for me to. also another minor issue there needs to be more than two zoom settings for the radar map in land battles.

Some tweaks to the diplomacy AI would be nice. There are plenty of things that fall under this, but I think a really big one is that when you go to war with a nation and bring your allies with you, if you make peace with that enemy and force it to become your protectorate, your allies remain at war with that country. This in turn damages your relations with your allies because now you're allied with a country they're at war with.

Of course, this leads to the larger issue of the AI factions never making peace with one another, leading to never-ending wars that are often inconsequential. I assume it stems from the long-standing problem in TW games of AI factions being too stubborn in negotiations. The AI factions are generally reluctant to make peace with you unless you give them something, preferably some of the territory you conquered from them. This is fine and is fairly historical, I think (the negotiated territorial borders generally didn't coincide with whereever the front was at the time of peace, I don't think), but the problem is that I don't think the AI faction that is winning is ever willing to give up provinces it has conquered, as it then considers those provinces their own. So since neither side is willing to yeild anything, the war usually just keeps on going until one of the factions is eliminated, which is silly. This is all speculation of course.
