Of course we read it :) It's a lot more prestige than I took into '44 so you should be alright. GC 44 West is also a nice DLC. There are a few scenarios where the allowed core size is bigger than your actual core at that moment. I filled that up with a number of StuG IV switchable antitank/artillery...

I've since found out that a V1 sells for about 800 and a V2 for about 1400.
That is useful prestige in GC 45 West.
Not sure yet if deployed but unused V1/2 are returned to the unit pool at scenario end or not.

Maybe a Panzer Corps 2 gold edition...

Just got a DV in the final turn of this scenario which was pretty tough for me. Not helped by a suboptimal deployment I had not enough armour in the south causing some desperate fighting to stop the allied armour from overwhelming me. In the end I managed but the cost was somewhat high. Also the M36...

the DV text says "Hold all Victory Hexes for 5 total turns total". However if you look carefully at the victory conditions in the scenario editor it mentions: - For decisive victory: Turn [1,-1] AND Tag 'Victory' exists then the scenario scripts clarify the 'Victory' tag activation: Turn ...

Making some headway into the 44 WEST DLC. Some nice scenarios along the way. For Falaise I've gotten a marginal victory twice even though I fulfilled the Decisive victory requirements as far as I know. The requirements are this: Your objective is to secure and hold all Victory Hexes for 5 total turn...

You didn't mention on which difficulty you are playing. Just my humble opinion: - Although historically the Germans were strategically defending on the western front, in this campaign you want fast and mobile units in most scenarios. - Both Pak are indeed pretty useless. - Movement 3 infantry are u...

You mentioned that you missed experienced infantry for Dieppe. Did your bonus SE units from GC 41 include any infantry, or did you go with a full tank force for those? Do you plan to convert one of your towed AT guns to a self propelled variant? About your 3 Wurfrahmen, imho the Hummel can be situa...

My difficulty level is General. I tried Field Marshall but I find it difficult to get used to the slower experience build up. I prefer Tigers above Panthers because of their better defense values. Panthers get shot up more easily. But indeed Tigers cannot be upgraded so in a prestige starved GC this...

So after multiple failed attempts in the past where I never persevered beyond Syracuse I finally made it to the end of GC West 42-43 and GC West 44 beckons. This DLC poses some unique restrictions in both core size and prestige levels. Due to the small core and skimpy prestige levels it is difficult...

For me Soviet Corps is the most enjoyable DLC of the bunch, at least so far. In fact seeing this thread pop up made me start it again. To be honest I think it is a fairly easy campaign. initial levels are a bit hard since the Soviets didn't have any decent units but once the sturdy KV-1B makes an ap...

Congratulations! It had to happen sooner or later :D 45 was indeed a breath of fresh air after the slog of 44. 42/43 West is where you can only import 9 units from your saved corps I think, tough choice.. I started the DLC but did not continue beyond Syracuse. Enjoyed Soviet Corps a lot and also Ope...

I haven't found it sofar.
The design forum section is a good starting point but some digging is required..

From Nikivdd I have seen Soviet Grand Campaign 37-42. What is MPC? I know he has remade the Gerold Treitler PG campaign in PC. My shortlist to explore, probably a multi year effort... Battlefield Europe - McGuba -Soviet Grand Campaign 37-42 Nikivdd -GTPG Campaign - Nikivdd -Market Garden Campaign - ...

Berlin Redux seemed pretty hopeless the first few turns. How in H can you defend the command bunker against these hordes of Soviets. Until I figured out that instead of finishing of the crippled Soviet units on the river it was much better to let the crippled units live, the AI is not smart enough t...

A number of interesting battles on.. Budapest 45 was a scenario that I did not get right the first round, or the second time round.. Key was an aggressive move towards Budapest combined with an aggressive airforce deployment over Budapest. There are so many hidden armoured units on this map that you...

According to the briefing extra prestige can be earned by capturing and escorting the officer in charge (of the HQ hangar?) back to lines. Apparently this officer should appear after destroying the hangar. But no matter what i do this officer does not appear. Somehow i am doing something wrong but c...

So at the moment I have two Budapest battles running, in GC45 East and in Soviet Corps. I just achieved a DV in the Soviet corps one but I'm afraid I need to play this again. At deployment the briefing stated that unused troops must be placed east of the red border otherwise they will be cleared. I ...

Onwards to Pelleninkin, one of the easiest scenarios in the entire series, at least with my core. In hindsight I would not have deployed to the max since it is not necessary and only brings the softcap down. Decisive victory at turn 7 without major losses. Parck took some more beating and I actually...

Well, back on the GC45 East track. Just finished Goldap and selected the offensive route to continue. I am a bit guilty of the too many Tiger II and ME262 crime. Probably as a result of this I did not find Goldap too difficult. Still enough surprises and damage though. I'd forgotten sbout the para l...
