I would only be able to name Kretschmer... Have a look on the link above they were many. Kretschmer sunk 47 ships For example Adolf Piening sunk 25. Took command of U-155 in June 1941, and sank 25 ships for a total of 126,664 GRT in 8 patrols. From March 1944 Piening was the commander of the 7th U-...

A brief roundup of how things are developing . I am in turn 50 (July 43) east goes slowly but with success, most important I am closing in to take Grozny in Caucasus and also just took Astrakhan with a surprise attack. The Volga front from Moscow to Stalingrad defensive line is holding well. Lening...

As far as I know no one really became a u-boat ace after 1943. The odds were against them so badly they had not much chance to shine. After May 1943 the hunters became the hunted and the successful early war aces who survived were all promoted to commanding or desk jobs in 42-43 the latest. The new...

Italy surrenders if the Allies capture Tunis and Sicily regardless of when it happens or if it happens at all. Well it just happened on turn 50, allies took Sicily. All mainland Italian units surrendered. The same happened in N. Afrika, to all the units west of Tobruk. East of Tobruk: all planes, a...

Italy surrenders if the Allies capture Tunis and Sicily regardless of when it happens or if it happens at all. This will result in Italian units disappearing from the map. However, if some Italian units are far away from Italy they may continue to fight with their German comrades. For example if the...

thanks for the previous replies :D :D Few questions on units in 1941-45 campaign. BE v2.0 reality version. What happens with Italian units in 44, still fighting with axis, join allies or else?. I am specially interested in units with dak force in N Afrika. There two artillery pieces that I am thinki...

- Caucasus is and absolute must: you will need that extra prestige badly... I'm little confused in which difficulty the oil crisis has those effects, but on higher diff, your airforce will be ruined from 44 slowly but steadily (in 44 -3xp/turn, in 45 -5xp/turn). Also the reconstruction of the oil w...

......... as far as I understand there are numerous tricks and techniques for playing on the highest difficulties, would be cool if someone could document them properly in a written form :) I guess some of them are exploits of the engine / AI Take a look on this video from R Martin https://www.yout...

5] Oboyan 43 In my opinion Oboyan is the second most difficult battle in GC 43 after Prokhorovka and maybe the toughest one in terms of map geographical restrictions in movement. There is no open country for tanks; the map area is about trenches, woods area and two Rivers dividing the whole area. S...

A question about the map, I do not see the Maikop oil field, since is the only oil field captured in operation Fall Blue, I there is not on the BE v2.0.

If is not a problem regarding map design, perhaps it could be added in the future update earning prestige.

[ Maybe I should upgrade these weakened artillery to more effective artillery. (I really like the 4 range artillery.)

What is your thought, this is very interesting !
