Think so too, but it isn't stated specifically.

I would think it would affect the whole battle.

What is the purpose of the Military Police?

IIRC in HOI 2 they where something your could attach to a unit to help repression.

Raptor1 · 04-25-11, 07:43 PM

Aye, military police brigades are used behind the lines to suppress partisan effects and uprisings.

Krauter · 04-25-11, 08:39 PM

MP affects partisan suppresson,

As for support brigades they affect the whole battle, however there is only so much "frontage" so to speak, i.e.: only so much room on the battlefield for a unit. Thus, unless its artillery, once the frontage is maxed units will wait for reinforcement to join the battle.

I will be able to play anytime... but having just got a job today, as well as crappy internet here at "home" I don't know how consisten I'll be til I'm back in Montreal.

Edit: I should be available anytime after 8PM EST everyday. Just PM me here or on Steam and I'll get on as quick as possible. Also, if we need more people on the Allies/Commintern side I will switch from Germany and go to another country

Are you sure about this? For one, all support brigades have a frontage of zero, so you can fit in as many as you want in a battle (As opposed to combat brigades which are limited). Secondly, it seems to me the bonuses Arclight is referring to, such as the Engineer movement, attack and defence bonuses in certain types of terrain and forts, modify the division's relevant statistics rather than give out a general bonus.

What would be a good time for everyone else? I'm fine with the 8:30PM EST(on the days I'm not working at that time), but that's 1:30 AM GMT.

Spike88 · 04-26-11, 05:15 PM

Since we are a bit uneven im going to go British.

Krauter · 04-26-11, 09:16 PM

I'm using a mod for my Sp campaign so that might have something to do with it...

@Spike: Nooooo I dont't want one of my most important allies controlled by a Computer (who is stupid)....

Well you need some challenge.

Germany pretty much steam rolled France by February 1940 in my current SP game, I except you to do it half the time.

I'd really like to play America, but 1936-1941 is pretty dull.

Unless Arc wants to take over the UK, we do need someone to be the faction leader.

Krauter · 04-27-11, 05:45 PM

Does Oberon have HOI3? I'd see him as a UK player

... So everyone has an ally but poor old Deutschland

Oberon · 04-27-11, 06:25 PM

If I had it then I'd sure take good old Blighty

But alas I don't

Technically you're the one with an ally with Arc in Japan. I only have myself in the Allies, and Raptor has himself in the Commiterm.

Although if Arc is willing to take over Britain, I'll go back to Italy. I like the idea of owning the Balkans.

Arclight · 04-28-11, 04:23 AM

Right so UK then... it's what I've been playing for practice: fairly secure early war but you can get some troops mixed in with the fighting easily.

It's really the only faction where I have even the faintest idea what I'm doing to be honest.

Arclight · 04-28-11, 07:16 AM

Erm... question: I'm giving a theatre HQ automation, but it turns itself off without doing anything not long after. Any ideas?

* Ah, I see. You basically define a front line.
