Re: NEW UPDATE 11.1! AUG1st 2020

@berto: installing potzblitz is actually already pretty easy, its really just one folder that needs to be replaced. it was just my mistake, i guess after too many hours and too many updates and seperate games that i play parallel, i just clicked something wrong. I find modding with JSGME to be fool...

Re: NEW UPDATE 11.1! AUG1st 2020

makes correct installation of PotzBlitz as easy as can be. Easier than copy/paste a single folder? One virtue of JSGME is that by reversing mod enablement(s), you undo any earlier changes, bringing the install back to a pristine clean base install. You can then re-enable the bits and pieces of Potz...

Re: NEW UPDATE 10.41! JUN 27th 2020

Can anyone recommend a YouTube (or whatever) video of PotzBlitz Mod (not the generic game) game play? After several game playthroughs, I remain ignorant of the finer points of tactical movement, unit types and their special uses, terrain effects, commanders, how best to deploy fleets, etc. Not so mu...

Downloaded, installed, and plays fine. (The update, not the full mod, which is blocked by a Google Drive login.)

Thanks!

Re: POTZBLITZ V9.51 AUG23th 2019

Thanks most of all to you!

CTGW PotzBlitz is on my short list of games/mods I will gladly play. Unfortunately, I have little to no free time in the near to mid term to actually play it.

I still follow the mod's (slowing) progress, however.

Mod on!

Re: POTZBLITZ V8.11, MAR 1st

Here's an idea: Slitherine, Lordz, Robotron (and ?) join forces to develop and release a Commander the Great War Gold edition, with PotzBlitz totally integrated (not just the full Grand Campaign, but all of the shorter scenarios too). Maybe even a CTGW 2?! Slitherine should throw some money around i...

On the contrary, you have kept a game that was nearly dead, alive.

Without PotzBlitz, I would have set the base game aside after the first few hours. PotzBlitz and the active if small community still playing the game have continued to sustain my interest.

Single- or multiplayer?
Single-player.

And probably not a very good single-player. :lol:

WWI Recommended Reading

Inspired by my recent purchase of CTGW, and to help immerse me in the game, I am now reading John Keegan's "The First World War" (Alfred A. Knopf, 1999). An even-handed account (doesn't focus on the British, for example), in broad detail the book explains the whys of the fighting and the o...

Re: POTZBLITZ V7.1 (BETA), DEC 9th

Granted, much or most of the code you inherited. You can't be held accountable for the prior work of others. In any event, the proof is in the game play. In this, you have done a bang up job. I only purchased CTGW in this season's Matrix Holiday Sale. I had been eyeing this game for several years. G...

Re: POTZBLITZ V7.1 (BETA), DEC 9th

In my coding, I routinely use Emacs (my preferred code editor), the MS Visual Studio editor, and occasionally also (Cygwin/Linux) vi. With all that switching around, and with every editor having a mind and auto-format of its own, my code is a mess unless I take the trouble to fix the auto-indents an...

The obfuscated code doesn't help either, I am sure.
