So my impression is that we will be creating our own scenarios on random maps? Is this correct? No. It means that you can create your own scenarios on random maps, not that you must. A point to remember, the Dev[elopers] are this providing this information for both general public and 'power' users....

I tried opening the editor yesterday. It displayed a blank map (with about 12 x 12 hex grid visible and no terrain) and a list of units to the side. It then paused for about 10 seconds and closed itself, leaving only the Panzer Corps start screen. The blank map is the default new map. It appears th...

Start with your equip file, if it is screwed up the editor may not work.
Place your original 'default' equip file the data folder to see if it then works.

Do you have this info for 1942 scenarios
I am trying to prepare

It's all here in this thread, GC39-GC45 [East].
Note I edited the campaign file to play both paths most times.

In PzC there are 3 AI levels. I assume that PzC2 will multiple AI levels as well.

Will there be a description the various levels?
How will these levels be beta tested. Will the users decide which levels will be tested?
Or will there be 'formal' testing of the various levels?

Hello, dalfrede. I have read all the traits but I have a doubt. Can you explain what backfire exactly does? Or is it only a gfx trait? Thanks in advance. A portee is a truck that carries a gun on its bed, such that the gun is not fixed permanently to the vehicle, can be quickly unloaded and can be ...

I am a Mac rather than PC user, so am probably overlooking something basic. Appreciate any help. With great difficulty. The Mac Version is a port of the Ipad and does not do mods. you have several options: 1) Whine, curse, ... 2) Use enric's Mac app to play individual scenarios. http://www.slitheri...

I would suggest a Dragoon/Grenadier trait. It allows dismount/switch with the expenditure of movement point[s]. Light AT and Art can deploy quickly from transport. Calvary and Motorcycles can quickly dismount. Heavy Art clearly would not have it. Other posters have requested that Grenadier have this...

There are/[have been] two Pacific Mods, in the Scenario Design subForum. iJA http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=147&t=34529 USMC http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=147&t=30156 I am not sure if their links still work, but people have been posting there the last couple of mon...

In our last internal discussion my vote was for leaving cavalry in infantry class, but moving motorcycles to recon. But Kresimir is not convinced. His preference is to keep the recon class more "uniform". Anything can happen before the release, we shall see. BTW, how do you imagine them being in tw...

So, if you wanted to edit equipment.pzdat completely you must use notepad or another program. Use a spreadsheet, such as Excel or OpenOffice Calc. Copy the equipment.pzdat file, rename the file equipment.pzdat.csv . Open equipment.pzdat.csv with your spreadsheet. Character set: Unicode , plain or U...

I never use kradschutzen at all. Which was my point. It requires a mod, so few people use it. As soft target infantry a Krad would have survived the tank assault in your Spoils of War play through. And is tougher that cavalry, so as a Krad that unit could have survived. Of course allowing a Soviet ...

Traits beng : bride engineer, allows other units to use this unit as a bridge to cross rivers. backfire : used to flip the unit icon when firing (for the portee guns, but dibs on using it for some switchable AA units like the SdKfz 7 models 8) ). bonus : unit is an SE unit. camo : unit can only be ...

The Great Recon Debate Have any of you rounders played AK or USc? The Italian Sahariana with switchable infantry is very useful, and hits hard. Willys Jeep is the best recon in the game. Admittedly the attack and defense values are overly generous, which is why it is not purchasable. It eats 88s for...

McGuba, not a problem.
Typos are easy, but unless the site software screwed up that mistake takes effort.

I'll never know, I'll never know Why I was taken from the line and all the others To board a special train and journey deep into the heart of holy Russia And it's cold and damp in the transit camp, and the air is still and sullen And the pale sun of October whispers the snow will soon be coming And...

They are in the game. Any time a German infantry or towed unit doesn't have a mechanized transport, it has a horse. That's Proline statement not mine. Mine: Nico's mod activates the horse transport in his equipment file. http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=147&t=69744&start=560 The US i...

After a bit of work I found that there was a problem with my modified equipment file - if you edit it in Excel it saves in a usable format but Open Office saves it in an unusable format, even though when editing it, the appearance is fine. Good job I kept the old PC with a working version of Excel ...

Note that changes to Gamesrules files appear to take effect only at the start of a campaign, rather than at the start of a scenario (as equipment changes do). This can make it a bit harder to test out. Also, tweaking the ranges on Soft Cap can have some strange effects - I managed to get >100% pres...

Will PzC2 have a line-of-sight system that land/naval units can't see what's behind terrain like settlements, forests, hills and mountains? We considered it and decided against it. All these mechanics simply force the player to spend more time and resources on routinely scouting the land and "combi...
