    Poll: Re: Russia, US, Ukraine, and the Future

    Exactly. Even if Russia somehow was able to militarily defeat and occupy all of Ukraine in the fall (too many variables that has to go different here to start with) it would very likely face a...

    Poll: Re: Russia, US, Ukraine, and the Future

    For Russia, certain. For Ukraine, how so?

    We have no idea what the actual figure is. By the looks of it they are trying to mobilize everyone they can so I suspect it's higher than 300k. This...

    Ukraine can take their sweet time with the Kherson Kessel and limit own losses. It was a brilliant lure to weaken other fronts and shift Russia's focus away from where they actually wanted to attack...

  8. Re: What is the reasoning behind reduced campaign movement range in the sea for land units?

    Would it be possible to disable pocket transport ships and have armies rely on fleets, akin to NTW? That could potentially solve the problem while making navies a true asset to invest in.
