Core import is there and worked fine when I quickly tried it. Only the arrow is missing just like terminator showed above.

Re: Air/Navy Battles

Good to hear you like the game. :) If the Pacific campaign is your first one, it is a very good choice. I have all 15 DLCs and Pacific stuff is still my favourite. Best ground/air/naval combination there is. And you are correct imo: the game is surprisingly deep. I like Panzer Corps also (the first ...

Re: Air/Navy Battles

I have been using primary guns, but mostly on the very edge of the gun's range. Why do you say that the first barrage is weak? Is there some hidden mechanic? I thought the few barrages I managed to fire failed because of max range and the fact that the ship had just closed to the target using all h...

Re: Air/Navy Battles

Could it be possible you were not using the Primary Guns of a battleship but only the secondary? The latter can indeed be rather weak. Another thing is that the first (long range) barrage is usually not as efficient as are the subsequent ones. Just like Gabe said BBs are very durable and therefore I...

Re: Why did I lose?

The big question is why the final screen claims I only captured 2 of the 5 victory points when I clearly had all five. It is because the counter does not show victory points but the number of SS units destroyed. If it says 2/5, you have only destroyed 2 units, but at least 5 is needed for a victory...

Re: Scenario end.

A minor addition: You do get a bit more RPs if you go to the full number of turns. I'm not sure if that's still the case. I think there was some work done on the "scen turn limit" thingy. Well, I tried it with Trondheim (Allies Defiant) since I have a suitable save and you do get an extra...

Re: Scenario end.

I have heard (i.e., read) this before. Is this true? Why would the game refund half of RPs used to repair aux units and none for core units? Yes, I've experimented with it (as have others I'm sure) and it works. I guess the idea is to motivate the player to repair aux units also to get more out of ...

This is because you receive one extra... portion ;) of per turn RPs: say you have a 20 turn scenario, if you play all the turns, you get RPs for turn 21 also. Usually I don't bother. The Resource Points Formula seems ...

Re: BrucErik CSD Studio

The men in question belonged to the Erillinen Pataljoona 4 (Detached Battalion 4). They were in essence Long-range recon patrol men. Like the posts in the link say "they were not proper parachute units, but trained to jump if necessary". Since there were only couple of combat jumps in 1944...

Re: BrucErik CSD Studio

Thanks, Gabe. :) I really love Bru's rich and versatile use of English language with the occasional humorous interludes. Very educational, too, for us non-native English speakers. I'm more the technical guy myself. For example, the popup about the "Landsverk II" was very informative to me,...

Re: Continuation War 1941 Beta Test

I'll remember to remove the "coastal" when I get to editing Bengtskar. I assume "jaeger" is alright without the "coastal," correct? Well, they were not jaegers either to be precise, but why not let them stay as coastal jaegers? Imo there is no need to be too strict wit...

Re: Continuation War 1941 Beta Test

Hanko (several places) should probably be spelled Hankö (at least that is what we mountain-apes call it). 'jaegars' could probably be 'Jägers', similar to the German spelling. Nope, the correct spelling is indeed Hanko. Is it really Hankö in Norwegian? :shock: I ask because Hangö is the Swedish spe...

Yes, I was dimly aware of the cross on tanks but German planes, too? My perceptions of reality have been distorted by OOB. Yep, those too, though there is often a swastika in the vertical stabilizer.

That second fellow from the right in the foreground, carrying his rifle so casually, makes me smile. Not that these soldiers were marching in formation, but this guy looks unusually relaxed and carefree. I hope he made it through the wars in good shape. Hope he did indeed. :) An excellent choice fo...
