First of all - AMAZING MOD!!! I simply love it.
I played with Germany, but I have to start over, because I haven't prepared well for Operation Barbarossa.:)
What everyone recommends, is it playable on difficult/aggressive?

Also, tell me, did you do this event and other things work on other countries, not only on Germany? I'm wondering about Japan, are there any new events, possibilities, decisions etc?
Thanks! Not many events besides germans.
@Jeremy: It's more or less WAD that upgrade takes a lot of time. Thus you need to plan when you want to start building new units and coordinate research with production.

That's a shame. I have some historical events for other countries, if you are interested in seeing them. I know nothing about coding, but I have everything else (text, impacts and photos).
 
It's not working. Getting an error on light carriers?!

Don't forget to first copy 'Darkest Hour Full' in a new folder, let's say 'World in Flames 2' and then paste this folder. That should solve the problem (it worked for me).

no matter how many games as germany i try i just can never keep on top of upgrades, im constantly allowcating at least 150-200 IC towards upgrades for very long periods of time and seems to take forever. im beginning to wonder whether its worth wasting the IC. each year i watch the upgrade slot amount build up numbers. As i said this is the only issue i cant seem to manage >.<, the mod it self is brilliant love the selection of unit types and new events
 
what I do is- I change the slider change to one year, i think it's fair to do so
move till full hawk
I use invest options to get my slider all the way to central planning
once hit 1939, start moving slider back to free market
 
I noticed that many ai nations build much ic, to much in my opinion. Its Jan. 39 now and gb has 200 ic what is more then me with 190, france 150, su 300 (!) and usa 550 ( all base ic ). is this WAD?

It's perfectly WAS as said above. The German army itself was "obsolete" IRL in game terms.

Yes, but combined with long build-times, CP penalties for upgrading and rather small benefits that you gain by upgrading units to a newer model, the effect is a bit ridiculous, in many cases not worth the effort at all. This concerns both WiF and DH Full. Upgrade cost&time should be lowered a bit IMO.
 
I presume its correct that SU gets loads of free divisions which they dont have even upgs for right? I tried like three times to invade SU, only thing im getting is that I kill like 2 mil men in encirclements and they still have 100 divs more after 3 motnhs of war then they had at beginning. Better planes, loads of tanks and inf that regain org like 10 times faster. Is that correct?
 
I think what many people don´t realize is that world in Flames doesn´t want u to have an up/to/date army constantly. If u have researched inf 1939, a 1931 inf will be upgraded in a couple days to 1936, but it will take 4x, or maybe more, I'm not sure, to upgrade the 1936 to inf 1939. It is only after u research 1942 inf, that the 1936 can move on to 1939.

And CzeReptil, what difficulty r u playing?

It may be a bit exaggerated for AI purposes, but this is exactly how the Germans felt IRL. They killed or captured several million men in 1941 yet the Soviets just kept coming. The Red Army was virtually destroyed and then rebuilt in the same year. The SU's mobilisation potential was crazy.
 
Fernando , i've got to point something out for you. Now that RC2 is out , there is no research speed bonus for majors, it used to be 75%, if i recall. In the misc file , it says the base value is 20%, so every major starts 1933 with 33% research speed... (because of the known techs). I'm assuming this isn't intentional, so i thought i should point it out.
Also , you should change the Germany flie in the 33 scenario folder because it still has the "research mod" line , so that Germany gets a massive advantage. I've edited it in my game , but some people might not notice , and that would make the game too easy.

Please remind me of this when 1.03 final is out and I update the mod. Very good advice, thanks.
