Decided to stick with the German campaign, after all i never did something like this before. As said above, i change the challenge to "living off the land", with some gun tractors and supply vehicles and lots of infantry. Inf plays the main role, including the "liberation" of enemy vehicles :) Thus,...

Hi Para :howdy Although i visited some bigger events, i generally don't like to go out on concerts: too many people :scared Especially during the past 15 years i rather went to smaller events (like the small concert hall "MUK" in my town with 1.000-3.000 visitors max) and private parties where i kno...

A few days ago there was a nice documentary about the Texans from ZZ Top on ARTE-TV. A very remarkable band history - over 50 years in unchanged line-up (world record).

Hi Schnulzke and :welcome to the forums :howdy The problem is: there are alot of efiles (think of them as mods) and campaigns, and this campaign has different versions - that's why the info "which efile are you playing" was asked.

I'm considering adding a liberator leader to the starting recon unit. That would certainly fix any issues with not enough prestige. Would that be too much? Getting a liberator leader on a unit like a recon unit really changes the way the whole campaign plays. [..] it changes the way you play a scen...

Regarding "updated campaign version" (or as in this case "full campaign rework" ) and "not enough prestige".
