Since I posted in threads: "Iron Cross revision1" and "Bugs Version 1.0" with screenshots and such and have not heard back from devs I decided to start a new thread. I wont repost my old stuff but I found one more error in the production que with photos.

Pz IIIM has photo of Panther tank! Only do I wish they had them before 1940!

This is not a problem that has to be fixed right away I just wanted to point out the mistake. In one other thread I also mentioned the StuGIIIB photo is used for the SP-ART prototype, but the tech tree and production que has it labeled as Wespe.

Sure wish there was a subforum for this stuff instead of the main one, soon hopefully!:D
 
Ok war started with Poland I had only 1 convoy for supplies of oil from Venezuela, the French and Brits properly smashed all my convoys I had going to South America. I had roughly like 16 or 20 transports not sure, but now its down to zero and I cant manually add any to the route.

Question now, Does the game automatically assign more transports and escorts once the convoy is at zero? I watched for a few days and have seen nothing added back to this convoy yet my transaction with Venezuela still shows green not red. Do I have to cancel the trade and restart one to get this convoy working again? Hope not.

Also noted that even though I have like 7 escorts once the convoy started taking losses the game never assigned any escorts to it at all. Now anyone else seen something strange like this?

Hi

Is possible that Venezuela can't send you the oil, and for that the convoy is 0

Save, and load with Venezuela.
 
Okay Poland is Annex its October 1939 and I forgot to turn off my "auto promote leaders" option so I started checking my leaders and WOW! Some have skills up to 7 now and I know thats amazing. However as example here: Manstein starts out with lvl 5skill with command of 3 units. Look at this screenshot!

Now its great to see him almost 7 skill level and commands 9 divisions now? In AoD once a leader is promoted they lose 1 skill level, is this the same for IC or has that changed? I have several leaders that seem to have been promoted by the "auto" option but their skill levels never decreased after promotion. Please advise.

I also have the Social Policy for Germany set to Militaristic which gives +10% leader gain which seems to be working very good atm, but that should not cause the issue either.

No I made the trade manually and I saw that UK and France sank all my transports either in Atlantic or just before coming home at Dogger Bank I think, so my question is how do I assign my "available" transports I have to this convoy to get it active again. My previoius screenshot shows I have 100 transports and 7 escorts and how to assign them to this trade convoy? Thats what I am trying to get answer to. Thanks Quintelosky.

AFAIK autopromotion does not reduce the skill level of a leader, only doing so manually will reduce the level.

You can't assign, only in a normal convoy. In original AoD is the same
 
Logistic Problems:

I conquered Stalingrad, but my troops never got supply to move on, so i had to retreat to Rostov, which is little bit better. That´s all over that distance, just impossible to move on. Doesn´t matter how many months I wait.




( The are around Stalingrad is still mine )

Hello;

One of the options of IC is that the leaders promoted by the player didn't lost skill points ( but yes the percentiles).
 
I got the feeling that Experience gets accumlated a lot faster now. When i finished France all the the units i had had with me from Poland onwards where 5-star-units, that right?
 
Ya i downed France prior to May of 1940 and most of my troops were 99 experience and lot of leaders in 8's for skill. Amazing how fast they gain in this mod. Actually is there a cap on skill for leaders in IC? At this rate all my Panzer Leaders will be Field Marshalls with 6 to 8 skill level commanding 12 or more units, I wont need to use all the leaders for my troops like in AoD vanilla because my best will be out and my army will be lot smaller I think as well. This ought to be fun.

Side note not related to your dilemna sorry, but looking at your screenshot I like the Iron Cross symbols for your experience of troops and the layout of your Unit info screen is different from mine. Care to share what mod that is or could you like that here for me or anyone else interested, please?;)

You´ve got a PM in a few minutes ;-)
