Hi SpencerK and other specimen

This game is frustrating me. I'm trying to finish the first map - but the amount of reinforcements the enemy keeps bringing to the battle is absurd - wtf?
I know what you mean an how you feel.....
Me too wanted to win, but with THIS game that's NOT what you should aim at when you're noobie at Men of War (at least i am).
But i realy love this game and find myself on the edge of addiction (dont worry ) but if i want to play with positive result,
i need to learn how to control this, and yeah man, theres a LOT to control

What i did :
First i added a mod that gives you 2500MP to start with + extra hardware, consisting of light, medium and heavy tanks, and extra infantry.
Here you find it :

And i unlocked the missions because i don't wish a career.
I just want to play (and eventually i will win, but that is a result, not a blind goal)
Here you find how to do that :

Now i'm practicing (Market Garden, German side,easy setting) júst to hold my initial base,
to get familiar with the gameplay and try out all kinds of stuff.
f.e. i found out (isn't in the manual) that using SHIFT or CTRL while transferring ammo from the Inventory,
you have control over the amounts you want to transfer.
SHIFT transfers 1 bullet (or bandage,or...) and CTRL transfers 100 bullets, or 25 (depending on sort of ammo).

It's fun to play and you have plenty of reinforcements at your disposal.
As long as you dont waste all of your tanks you can hold out for ever !
And when you dó wast'em...., just press restart and let'em roll out once more.
Just play for the fun of it and you will learn ! One shot after another.
And on the forums (YouTube too) you will find much info.

And this way i even managed to win a skirmish. It was a mess, but great fun

Have fun man, but when it's not your thing.... sell your copy and play
something else

Greetings from a Dutch Battlefield (for now mostly Dying Grounds)
Peter
