Commander – The Great War Now Available!

[Myrddraal]

I understand that submarines need the stealth but the vision they have is so limited, I can't really locate the convoys even though I'm camping the spot where I think they will pass. Perhaps a solution then would be to allow them more vision on the map, or more like a radar, a vague indication of that there are ships in a certain larger area, but not the exact location. Right now I have just 1 click and if can pass 2 hexes from a ship and I might miss it.

Keep moving. You'll stand a much better chance of spotting enemy convoys if you keep on the move, even if it's just moving up and down patrolling the same patch of sea, you effectively double your line of sight. It's also very effective if you can purchase more subs. If you have 2-3 subs each patrolling a different patch of sea, you can cover all the different approaches to the British isles and you'll usually spot the convoys. When one is spotted, you can then hit it with all your subs and take it out fairly quickly. Britain is very dependent on convoys, but watch out; the more convoys you sink, the sooner the USA will join the war.

New units should always come with all the latest techs. Are you sure your new units aren't fully upgraded?

I'm still at the gates of Paris, for a brief moment of time our forces held the Arc de Triomphe, the briefest moment of hope.

One thing to note, you don't actually have to take Paris to cause a lot of grief for the French. Each time you attack the city, it damages the city's production. Losing Paris' production causes a serious blow to the French ability to maintain their army. Actually taking the city, however briefly, will do a lot of damage to their production. You may not have thought it a big achievement, but that brief period when you held Paris will have done a lot of damage to the French economy. You can press the space bar to get a view of what the city's production is at the moment.

Edit: also taking Paris will have caused a major blow to French national morale.

Counter-battery fire kicks in if you're near the unit being bombarded. Hopefully that helps...
