          "The Last Adventure"


     First of all I want to note the reasons why I took the 
description: 

     1. Do not want to be a good game
remained unnoticed because of the hidden advantages.

     2. Really liked the dynamics,
why take my hat off to the author.

     So, the "Last Adventure" - the game
Strategic genre. In the setup menu
There are 4 preparatory level (2 in Russia and 2 in Europe), 
and 2 main ones: Russian and German campaigns

combine the preparatory level. Moreover, the campaign in 
Europe, you play for the Germans, and Russian - in Russia. At 
the preliminary level you have the opportunity play for any 
side, and each against each other. To do this, press the "fire" 
on the image "company" or a person in the menu. Also, when 
playing with a computer can be set by the enemy from 1 to 5, 
pointing "Fire" in the figure around the image of PC.

Level 5 - the most difficult. Basic levels, the campaign is 
only a game against the computer! And, if you're more or less 
right in the first part of the campaign, at podgruzku second 
you add a piece of (As would have transgressed), offering 
"landed" them to enjoy. Small nuance: I noticed that the added 
part received combat experience, draw conclusions!

Well, the choice is made and the battle!

     Downloading a game, you'll see a game
field and the interface. It is easy to understand, but some 
advice I still dare to give. So, on top of the window is 
current date. Next - weather report. Note that in cloudy 
weather movement (with the same fuel consumption) slows down to 
2, and in storm - 3 times, and both aircraft and antiaircraft 
guns in the storm unfit for action. Below - the country, and 
even lower - a little icon and a figure showing your 
mobilization resources. On the number of points you can 
recharge the old and create new divisions. In the second

window option "choice" to select certain parts of the city, 
airport, and there is detailed information about them. "Map" is 
used to display parts on the strategic map. "Report" provide 
information about the number of losses (do not be afraid to 
Russian campaign dead tree - so conceived of the story. The 
matter of tactics: you can win or make a draw, even

with large losses). Further, the "reserve". C
this function, I did not understand - sorry.
"Burn", "download", "install"
"Move" - ​​it is clear without explanation. "Completion".
With this function we will deal with separately.
When it is selected you get into the submenu
offers a choice of various kinds
troops, and when you select certain you'll see a new window 
with detailed information and price in terms of mobilization. 
Here (Very important!) Scrolling up and down

You can choose from a variety of power and price
division of the species, and scrolling
left-right to choose additional equipment (there is not at 
all), ie, trucks Armored personnel carriers, trucks, etc. for 
the accelerated movement of parts. One more important thing, 
"planting" the newly-formed parts can only be about their city, 
but there where there is no fuel and ammunition, some will, but 
will be unfit for action. Also keep in mind that the first move 
after the part is not yet able to fight back and the enemy can 
beat it without hindrance, so that See where it is better to 
install. 

     Now for the second menu, where you
get by selecting a specific part. "Order" - is, or specify a 
destination to move or to specify a particular part of the 
enemy to attack. Possible attack shelling, bombing of the parts 
in hover for which kursorkvadratik

becoming a "target". The shelling is possible at a distance. 
"Information" - clear "Completion" - you are refreshing in 
whole or in part on the balance of points or levels are full of 
great battered parts moreover, "far from home." Note that if

replenishment falls combat experience, a maximum value 200. 
"Modernization" - You can improve some kinds of troops,

Points paid in addition NN (scrolling left-right), for example, 
by setting a fortress more powerful tools, or turning a light 
infantry in a heavy, and even on BTR. "Build" - this

function for the construction and engineering divisions. With 
this order (conveniently on the road) with good availability, 
can be convinced that the "construction battalion" will build a 
fortified, improves defense force units, placed on it. "Expand" 
This command will result in part of the combat readiness after 
moving on machines with possibility of shooting directly into 
the same turn. Also you have to use this team when the machines 
ran out of fuel. Expand portion (preferably close to their 
city) and through the course can collapse and continue to move, 
because machines will be "tucked". Check

troops stationed in the rear, since many of
They are equipped with technology that allows you to quickly 
organize a counterattack. "The Machines" and "Collapse" - the 
same team, only one for the infantry, antiaircraft guns, and 
the other for heavy artilerii. This command will allow

begin an accelerated motion on the technology.
"At home" - a tricky function, allowing the dying parts fled
fields and gardens, and it is not considered
broken or destroyed. Is there a connection
this order to "reserve" of
Points mobilization is unclear.

     Key "S" is used to exit from any mode, and "N"-to quickly 
iterate parts.


     Just a couple of tips I'll give that was not painfully 
hurt for the little things. 

     In the early games (USSR), as in
war, almost all divisions were understaffed (50%), but if you 
create a new one, she was 100%. Try to move

on the road (1: 1) if the fields -1: 2
Forests -1: 3, river-stop progress! So do not
climb into the river with plenty of movement!
Another little trick: when entering
enemy of the cell, where
your aircraft, you lose access to it, and
the only way to "vytsepit" it - this
search on the key "N". The aircraft you will not see, but the 
cursor will be over land part directly in the menu order and 
tells the inscription in the window, for example, I-16. The 
same is true with the disappearance of the aircraft on his 
part. Be vigilant, because enemy anti-aircraft guns love to be 
chosen in such a goals.


     "Veterans' well-kept udarboevoy
experience! Losing 3-4% of the enemies - the aces dispersed
entire division newcomers. Experience increases with
each attack as you and the enemy.

     Tip: Heavy goals (strength, etc.)
hit a bunch. If you'll be bale to chutchut, the enemy will get 
a good combat experience, and small losses can easily fill up!


     Control fuel and ammunition!
Not necessarily for them to fly to their airports or go to 
their town or ports. Often enough to be near.

Can and grab someone else's, but for this
be part of the land to go to an enemy object, and stand there 
until your next turn. 

     Do not pull their forces in vain,
as "Settled" reach the degree of 7 and reinforced as they are 
harder to "skovyrnut. More remind you that well to beat the 
enemy en masse, as with each blow is applied increasing damage 
to the enemy with smaller loss of its parts. If the number of

attackers exceeds supply of ammunition
defenders, then the number of units of the attack will go 
unpunished. Understood this hint?


     If a part is surrounded, it is very
difficult to fill, although attempts have to be repeated 
because Sometimes the enemy makes a move and the siege is 
lifted. 

     Another bug: you can "compute" and capture (come close) 
airport, which makes the enemy raids. Then its planes for some 
reason do not change the place of "home" - that expanse of 
antiaircraft guns! 

     When moving his plane, avoid contact with strangers, since
he was "blocked." Especially dangerous are "ticks"
above ground parts, since the aircraft
the enemy is invisible. Rummage antiaircraft sky every move! 
Remember: the most vulnerable position of parts in a river. 
They are suffering huge losses when they attack, bombing, 
bombardment. 

     You can smash your enemy's air force on
ferries! Note that the XE-111
like to bomb the city. Do not stand there vulnerable parts. The 
best way to check the enemy - to create a bridge ukrepgruppy. 
He necessary to climb into the river through the forests.


     Another "bug": you can protect against the bombing of a 
part, if installed on her own aircraft, the enemy is also 
resorted to this method.


     In the game, everything is interconnected: if the enemy
seize the airfield, he will be able to base, and
importantly, to produce aircraft. The same with
ports, even if you have drowned the whole fleet
the enemy, he gets the opportunity to produce
ships, capturing the port. Port is
any city on the coast, that's possible entry of ships. Keep in 
mind that Your industry is in the rear of "not sleeping", and

1942 (for Russia) you are available to new units, for example,
stronger infantry, armored cars and airplanes.
It is a pity that this has little effect on the game, since
Mission ends 10 days after
New Year, which is a pity, since the interesting
play a more heavily armed, but
Day and Victory Day could be found.
Author, ay!

     Last advice: carefully read the tactic - characteristics 
common to find them a better application. For example, a 
battleship and a light cruiser is good cover for their attacks 
and foreign parts located near the sea, because they are very 
long range, but the leader and destroyers to be an escort, 
because that they can fend off the Air Force and, most 
importantly, from submarines.


     The game has a lot of small "amenities"
For example, after the bombing of the city appears "residents 
panic", but and stocks may decline. But this is

extra boards, since the game nice "chew" the most.

     We wish the author had to potvorit SPECCY, let him know 
that his work noticed and appreciated.
