        I'm on the CivFan PBEM of this as the Soviets, so I guess I'll do the Japanese for a change.

                    If indeed this is a test PBEM, then I suppose I have to a report any sort of problems with the scenario. Although I like this map, there seems to be problems with unit combat balancing. I noticed that the so-called “anti-aircraft” batteries were so powerful in defense that no land unit could defeat them except for field artillery, and even that was a stretch.

                    Not only is this unrealistic practically, but it makes the game historically inaccurate as well, since almost all of the Dutch East Indies and any other island bases with AA batteries are now impossible to take with the marines and tanks I have at my disposal in these areas. In case we still want to continue the scenario despite this, I played my turn anyhow:

                    - American Pacific fleet destroyed at Pearl Harbor of course, and surprise attacks begin throughout the western Pacific.

                    - Rangoon, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Singapore, Guam, Hohot, and Nanning have all been captured.

                    - Mandalay emptied and an occupation force was moved in, but they were out of range can did not take it this month.

                    - American submarine sunk just west of Darien

                    - Japanese troops only besiege both cities in the Philippines, since their AA batteries are too powerful to be destroyed by immediate amphibious attacks. Meanwhile, the American air force’s in the Philippines have been destroyed, and some of the garrisons on Panay and Mindoro were destroyed.

                    - Japanese planes and troops destroy most of the Allied garrisons and air forces in the East Indies that are outside cities, and then prepare for withdrawal back to China as the Japanese forces currently available are insufficient to destroy the powerful AA batteries in the cities of the East Indies. The only exception is Tarakan, which has been besieged.

                    - “Home Front” wonder completed in Kyoto through rush- building.
                    Unbelievable!

                      Uh-oh, the gigamap savegame is too big to post (over 500000 bytes). I'll try to e-mail it to the next person on the order, but it turns out my AOL account isn't allowed to attach files, so I need about a day to get that dealt with.
                      Unbelievable!

                        Here is the newest version, 0.2.

                        Let's use this one.

                        I don't know what we are going to do about the problem with the save games being too big!
                        I'll try to think of something.

                          Post it zipped, it should fit then.

                            Good idea, Marko. I'll do that when I redo my turn with version 2, except it doesn't work! Some things are right, like the cities, terrain, and icons, but then other things don't work, like units, unit art, and city improvement names. Might want to check it out Pap, or just continue with 1.1.
                            Unbelievable!

                              Darius, you have to run the 2194Days.bat first and choose option 1.

                              Everything will work fine then.
