Re: Panzer Corps 2 vs Panzer Corps 1
I would say it's much better. A few of the changes: - Combat has been reworked, there is now a separate to hit mechanic. This makes much more sense and has a huge difference on experience and armor calculations in particular. A green tiger tank will just miss a lot, whereas an elite M3 Stuart still ...

Re: Should Panthers be cheaper?
It seems unit cost is calculated based solely on unit stats, using some formula. These creates questionable situations, like T-34 / KV 1 having roughly same price or specialist infantry having almost same price, as regular. But generally speaking there is so much prestige in the game and upgrade fa...

Should Panthers be cheaper?
In history the Panther tank were a big step up compared to the Tiger tanks. This wasn't because they were better, but because they were cheaper. According to Wikipedia a panther cost 117,000 RM whereas a Tiger cost 250,000 RM. They were only slightly more expensive than the Panzer IVs. Germany there...

Re: My humble thoughts and suggestions for PC2
They return to base in random order. I remember I could bomb a ship at Los Angeles and the next round not – because the bomber was on the other side of the Airport and therefor the ship was suddenly out of range. I think this is a good point. They should change the rules so that it counts the numbe...

Re: HELP!! Game seems too hard. And other critique
I would definitely go for more AA. In particular the flakvierlings cost only a single core point. Thus, you could replace one of your fw-190 planes with 5 of them. This will provide air defense for most of your units and make shooting down enemy fighters much less costly as supressed units dont shoo...

Re: custom deployment is not.
Another problem with custom army is that in random battles the unit cap is 0 for the defender. As of such, he cannot buy new units when he disbands others in the deployment phase.

Not possible to use allied airfields
In the "Along the Volga" scenario you have a german ally. This ally also captures cities and airfields, which are then unusable by your aircraft as you do not own them. This is undesirable as it makes it impossible to move your own aircraft up. I assume all city related features like exter...

Re: Fundimental Balance Change to Capture.
The problem with the Power4 isn't the prestige you pick up. It's that it totally breaks the tactics and strategy of the game. ... The issue is really perimeter control. You shouldn't be able to negate enemy ZOC without the hero. When every unit can do it, it's ridiculous. I see your point and it ma...

Re: Fundimental Balance Change to Capture.
I am ootl here. What exactly is Power4? The trait that doubles the punishment for encirclement? It's what Edmon called the 4 traits that make encirclements deadly. Deadly grasp. Master of blitzkrieg. Flexible command and Perimeter control? (The one the allows you to negate enemy zoc) I think the la...

Re: For what is there captured units?
This feature really needs a rework imho. Even if you are able to capture sufficient points to form a complete unit it will most likely be outdated by the time you can field them. And then you will also be limited by a very small pool of reinforcements for this unit. Perhaps they should just give you...

Re: Game won't auto-save at beginning of the turn
Another minor issue related to saving is this. If you use certain special characters in your title it will fail silently. I tried to save my game with a name like: Level 3: Norway - Game 2 Or something like this and it just didn't save it, but also didn't give an error. I tried multiple times, until...

Error in combat calculation for high ground
See the screenshot below. The unit with the white border is attacking the infantry unit below it. Both are standing on a mountain. If you look at the combat calculation log you see that the ranger still receives a bonus for being attacked from low ground. As both are standing on high ground, this mu...
