The manual says battles must be fought in chronological order. Is that literally true? Specifically, I fought Rush For the Apennines without upgrading my Normandy HQs because I assumed I could do it later, and now, after that battle, I'm getting the option to fight Overlord. Am I correct in assuming that if I just continue on with all the Italy-Vienna-Bohemia tree without switching over to Western Europe, I'll lose the ability to go back and fill in the battles stemming from Overlord though March of '45? Or (as I hope), can I still fight the battles out of chronological order and do all of them?
If continuing on in Italy does in fact stop me from fighting Overlord, might I suggest a pop-up warning at the 3rd Conference that it's your LAST chance to upgrade your Normandy HQs before Overlord, not merely your first chance? And, likewise, a pop-up warning before starting any battle that will end your opportunity to fight a different battle would be good.
Anyway, loving the game -- great job by the dev team.
