i don't kow what they did to the game i payed for but there patch put red slash marks all over the ocean so i cannot seperate my dd' from bigger task forces to run the through the said slashes. now today my planes were shorted on my cv's and i can't up the plane compacity to the 6o planes i need for each carrier. also red slash marks for no zone areas. you can't disable by hitting alow in the sections with red slashes so the game is totally unplayable. also my saved game i was winning was disabled and my beta setup dis appeared there is four other beta setups but i don't have the password and can't find the original password at all.besides i don't want the other dlc's because it messed up man the guns in the first place.

Nope, this doesn't cover everything which was added. Still falling way short, and I cannot continue without more information.

If you need this many tutorials for one in-game system then the system is bad.

Gents -

Absolutely outstanding. Really love the detail design features and concepts that you have added to HOI4. Sincerely hope that you do the same for land warfare (tanks!).

Cool..but I am not paying $20 for a DLC where the AI and Axis wins 99% of the time.
