Order of Battle: Allies Victorious is out now

Post by tebaf3 »

Allies Victorious - the last part of the Allied trilogy for Order of Battle, is out now.

Image

The new DLC depicts battles from the Allied Normandy landings in summer 1944 to the end of the war in Europe. The campaign began on D-Day, 6 June 1944, with Operation Overlord, the large-scale amphibious assault to land Allied forces in northern France. Afterwards, the player has to secure the rest of Normandy, and needs to defeat substantial German forces in the Falaise pocket. Following a successful breakout from Normandy, the liberation of Paris is in reach.

Like all previous DLCs, Allies Victorious also adds a number of new units for both Allied and Axis countries, and a few new Allied commanders. The new units are:
  • US: 8inch_howitzer M-115
  • UK: Achilles, Archer, Ram Kangaroo
  • Germany: FlakPzIV, Me-163 Komet, V-1 "Flying Bomb"


Tune in today on our Slitherine Twitch Channel at 7pm GMT where SgtZDog will show you the new DLC.

After downloading Allies Victorious, do not miss the chance to sign-up to the new tournament “Victorious Tournament”. You can sign-up here. There will be 3 Tournament Maps:

  • Cyrenaica
    Libya - January 1942, The Afrika Korps and the Desert Rats face off in a battle to seize vital roads across Cyrenaica.
  • Caen
    France - June 1944, Following D-Day substantial German forces committed to the defence of Caen aim to prevent the Allies from advancing inland quickly.
  • Cobra
    France - July 1944, US forces launch Operation Cobra to break out of Normandy and advance into Brittany.


    The tournament follows Swiss Tournament rules: you can find the full list of rules here.
    The first round will commence on Thursday, 6th October 2022 at 3pm GMT. No further entries can be accepted after the tournament has begun.

    The tournament will last 3 rounds, 15 days each. Games are paired, so each matchup will be played both ways. All you need to do is sign up, then the system will pair you with opponents and create your PBEM++ games. You will be notified by mail of when the tournament is starting and when it will be time to play your turns.

    To celebrate this moment, the DLC will be part of the Order of Battle: Allies Pack here. If you don't own Order of Battle yet, you can download the base game for free and you can buy the DLCs with up to 75% off discount.

There are issues after downloading and installing the new DLC. There is an error code that will not allow the game to launch. I have tried reinstalling it and it doesn't help. Must re-start computer each time in order to play. Something is not jiving. I did not have this issue before installing Allies Victorious. I cannot copy and paste error code, it will not allow me to or I would have posted it here.

I am trying to join the tournament. I've had OOB for years. Just purchased Victorious and love it.
I get a 'the serial number has not been registered. Client should open the registration/account creation screen'. It seems there is always a new error for each DLC. How do I fix this, please.

Normally the new DLC is automatically registering the serial when you install it. At least that has been the case for me.
You could always open My Page and try to register it manually.

A friend of mine has the same. He's registered an issue with their support team. I'd say do the same as they don't seem to be resolving his with any urgency. Another ticket may make them realise it's not just one person affected.

Has anyone seen any information on when the 'Allies' DLC will be available for MACOS? I can run Allies Victorious on my PC, but I prefer to play on my M1 Mac mini when traveling because it only burns 60Watts vs 380 for my pc.

Are the developers planning to make a DLC On the theme of the Japanese Chinese conflict ?

P.s. Moreover, it is stupid not to react to the market with potential Chinese fans)

Interested only in the Homeldan and the red partisans of Mao )

A lot has already been done about the Allies and the Axis )

I'm guessing the poster is looking for a Japanese/Chinese campaign played from the Chinese side?

That's how you can also dedicate a separate DLC to them

Yes, that's exactly what I want to play for CHINA, not a stump, not a castrated mod, but a full-fledged game and DLC!

Wow, way to go on making friends. Something may be lost in translation but I suspect it was an innocent question about how popular the game may be in China, because how would we know?

I certainly don't see a flood of messages that might incur your ire.
