As I was playing stoney road v0.1 at medium diff. I first didn't realize why resource management is such a bitch, but now I do:]
My IC was half what it should be, all my resources where exhausted and even trading coal for rubber 100 vs 100 wouldnt do the trick. So I started looking for additional resources.
First I tried Guatamala, being a dictatorship and giving 40 coal 20 steel 15 rubber. I figured I could do that. But the Allies dowed me days after I invaded the middle America state. I Reloaded, and tried to invade austria this time (mainly cos my coup there failed)
BUt same thing again, ubermoralist allies dowed me again.
Since my entire armie except the invasion force was in upgrade I just had to reload that game aswell.
Running out of options and since I upgraded my IC whenever I could I really needed resources fast to keep my IC at 280 and not 180.
Next target was Estonia , good for 40 coal and 20 steel, not much but anything would do. My navy invaded and 6 simple inf. div with no brigades commanded by Rommel landed and took over the baltic state. The allies did nothing, it was now like mid 1937
I still needed more resources though so I prepared to take the rest of the baltic by 2 advances, one from north and one from south from Konigsberg, this went pretty well and I almost annexed em both when Russia dowed me.. Kinda to be expected and ofcourse only Poland stood between them and Berlin.
Next thing to happen though was an event that litterly stripped of all my resources to -10000 since I was starting Barbarossa or somthing. Now my 10 div. didnt' look like that at all:[
Shortly after the event the game crashed 2 desktop, same when I reloaded...
Maybe its cos my adventures in the Baltic and that cos of that the Russians dowed me 2 early but i dont see anyway to keep a descent IC with the resources u have at the beginning of the game. Even when going for full speed industrial research i was falling down to half IC half of the time..
Apperently I must suck at resource managment but is there anyway to turn that option off or are there any good tips to keep up the IC in the game playing as Germany???
further the graphics look great and I also like the tech tree, I think its a very cool mod and am dying to play a full game of it:]
