This is a list of all events(not 100% up to date). Nearly evry mission has secondary objectives that earn commendation points.

The Sig 33 and Sturmpanzer, if kept at a range of 1, should also cost less (both in slots and prestige), as they currently lack a clear role (stug is cheaper and better). Of course, it’s your mod, so the final decision is yours.
Pioneers are still the potentially strongest infantry if used with the right heroes, due to their "Ignore Entrenchment" and their high "close defense".
The way infantry works atm is fine. Each unit has it´s use and niche. Compared to vanilla where it´s pioneers only, i´m very happy with how it is now.

SiG33 and Sturmpanzer are in Vanilla conditions.

Thanks for your answer! Could you also let me know how many command points are available in the 1940 campaign overall? I'd like to plan my game accordingly. Thanks in advance!

I downloaded the version for a non Steam game. After extracting I was left with the following:

4 Folders
Audio
Campaigns
Data
Portraits

Also

PanzerCorps1.uplugin - extracted 127 KBs
preview.png - extracted 116.426 K

What is the next step. For example previously I had created a folder named multiplayer and put multiplayer scenarios in to it. Since Grand Campaign is single player where should I put the above and which ones? Thanks.

This is where the mod needs to be.

steam updates automatically. just subscribe and wait like 5 mins for the next tick or force it by restarting steam.

Hello there.
It's really cool to watch and play this campaign again.
I used Preludes and 1939 with LTD. This was very challenging because I also traded limited stock.
The current download (not Steam) includes 1940 LTD.
But I can't select it as a new campaign after 1939?
Ideas?

This will change with next update. currently working on getting Ltd done for the whole campaign. Will take some more time to finish that.

Limited stock should not have any effect when playing Ltd campaigns.

@Grondel.
Are you saying it will take some time? Will the entire 1940 campaign be revised?
Campaign path, scenarios, I also noticed that there are no more random captured aircraft at the airfields?
Is there an approximate date?

Hi, in the Belgrade scenario the choice for Klingenberg appears after I capture the last Hex (which ends the scenario). I authorize the promotion however no points are deducted and there is no Klingenberg in the next scenario. Any ideas?

Resolved: Hex [9,22] cannot be the last Hex to be captured since it is the one that triggers Klingenberg...

I guess most people progress straight to Belgrade but since I have turns, I thought of surrounding it. All else well and enjoyable...
