Hello, meanwhile i continued the AC Campaign. In the Kaukasus Scenario i found some problems.

- 10 Turns to reach Voroshilovsk isn't possible, even with paratroopers.
The armoured force in the area will crush your sneeking scout. Tanks and other troops cant get there in time.

- After restarting the scenario severaltimes, i remarked also that player 1 (me) or player 2 (computer) can't move from time time to time. Only restarting or reloading severaltimes resets the movement.

this is a known issue not related to the mod. nothing i can do about. if u notice it just reload last turn and keep going.

I am puzzled that no one has seen this?, but the AA guns are not working.
If you deploy them, you cant target any aircraft if you are not directly under them.
And in that case the AA gun fire in anti tank mode, with very low dmg against planes.
Tested with Flak 36,37 and 88, on prelude campaign,39 and 40

u are using another mod that modified AA guns, i suspect an old version of the units toolbox. the issue is not caused by this mod.

Hmm strange
I deleted my only other mode "Storm over Europe" and restarted the scenario.
But the AA will not fire, when I check under mod management, GC is the only one there.
I also removed the AO 43 beta patch and restarted the scenario, but nothing changes.
How do I check the units toolbox?

the units-toolbox is integrated in storm over europe. u need to load a save from the scenario before. restarting will not remove any mods that were active when the scenario was started the first time.

Haha, huge surprise for me in Dnip. mission, where USSR goes first and has general traits! Bad guy had the one where enemy units have no ZOC when engaged, mauled me badly.

"Anti-Air Veteran" took out some of my bombers last run, cause arrogant me didn´t bother to check on his trait ;)

u can expect more surprises the later the war gets. enemy keeps adjusting to ur battle tactics. ;)

It´s working:-)
But I was forced to restart from the prelude, since all my save was corrupted.
Thank you for helping me.

I was just playing Kharkov42 and enemy units completely ignore ZOC? That did not happen at the Vitevbesk scenario.

Update: After the third map restart everything was working as intended. Both times before it started happening around turn 3-4.

1942 onwards, as stated in the first briefing of 1942, enemy AI will have general traits when going first. the trait is chosen by random. to check which trait the AI has chosen just mouse over his symbol top right corner of the UI.

On ur first gos the AI probably had perimeter controle.

Anti-Air veteran is simmilar surprising if u don´t bother checking what trait it got. ;)

Since the latest update the requirements for the awards are not working for the Kiev1943 scenario, they're too low. I think this related to the missing json file but can't remember.
