21 Kursk , #19 , Brilliant Victory At HQ, sold the Luchs and the 2 level bombers. Upgraded most tanks to Panthers and the 2 sp aty to regular aty. Deployed an armored group in the South and an inf and aty group in the North. The group in the North did ok. The one in the south ran into heavy lines o...

Back in the USSR - 20 Counterstrike at Orel , #18 , Brilliant Victory Please send me back to the desert or change all my tanks to Tigers. These Soviets are brutal. Missed the prestige at HQ for another tank upgrade. And because I had to spend a few 100 pp tot save a tank from being destroyed, I don...

19 Tunisian Campaign , #17 , Brilliant Victory At HQ, upgraded another tank to a Pz IVG. Deployed aty and StuG to help with the defence of the airfield. The armor supported by the LW advanced South to capture thr VH well in time for Bv while infantry in trucks reinforced the central VH. Not as easy...

18 Algerian Borders , #16 , Brilliant Victory HQ: upgraded another tank. Well under the cap with all these free unit upgrades. I hope that I have enough units for the upcoming scenarios. Split the core in two - with some trucked reserves deployed in the rear. Started carefull and it quickly became ...

I'm glad that you like the campaign. There are things that I'd change today, at least the balancing could have been better, but at least the campaign isn't too hard. Cheers! I like it indeed. Briefings are well done, many different theatres and enemies, different types of missions, manageable size ...

17 El Alamein , #15 , Brilliant Victory HQ: Sold the 3 Pak40 I got for the previous scenario and started upgrading tanks to range 2 ones. Split the core in two. Both advanced well against the Allies. The Ju88's are :monster with the skilled ground attack and aggressive attack leaders. Easy BV with ...

16 Russia , #14 , Brilliant Victory I lost all save games for this campaign when the SAVE directory went missing and I oculd not retrieve it in trash. Weird. But had to replay 16 scenarios. This is where I am (back were I was last time but with a different core - no more CS tank). OpenGen 0.93.4.0 ...

16 Russia , #14 , Brilliant Victory HQ: Gave halftracks to some units. This is the most long and brutal scenario so far. Can't complain. The briefings were clear on what to expect. OpenGen 0.93.4.0 * 25 Dec 2020 * AI version: Default (0.91) Efile folder: D:\OpenGeneral\efile_openak\ * Efile version...

15 Ukraine , #13 , Brilliant Victory HQ: bought a new fighter in turn 1 Took thing easy until the point I realised there is another VH up North :bonk At that point the LW cleared a path for the recons and everything was fine again :) OpenGen 0.93.4.0 * 25 Dec 2020 * AI version: Default (0.91) Efile...

14 Belarus , #12 , Brilliant Victory HQ: bought some more inf and upgraded the zippo to a usefull tank.

13 Invasion of Crete , #11 , Brilliant Victory HQ: upgraded the TB. Deployed tanks, aufkl and some inf in the North and the LW at the airfield. Airfield in the S was safe straight away and the airfield in the N in my hands in turn 2. Tanks and planes destroyed everything in sight while the aux Fsch...

12 In Desert , #10 , Brilliant Victory HQ: missed 4pp for a the tacbomber upgrade :( so just upgraded an inf and kept the rest of the pp in the bank. Not much tactics, just use brute force to break through the enemy defences on route to the escape hex. Once the dirt field was constructed, the LW jo...

11 Libyan Expedition , #23 , Brilliant Victory HQ: upgraded the level bomber to burn prestige + bought an new Inf. Split the core in two groups and used the fast Italians to join 1/2 of the core S. Slow Italians joined other 1/2 N. BV with one turn to spare. Only the Matilda dd not want to die easi...

10 Visiting Berlin , #9 , Victory At HQ: upgraded the last tank to Pz IV. Upgraded/downgraded the Atk units to StuG B. As far as I can figure the scenario out, V and TV are possible - each with different monetary and unit rewards. I took the V. OpenGen 0.93.4.0 * 25 Dec 2020 * AI version: Default (...

9 Campaign in France , #8 , Brilliant Victory HQ: more upgrading. Another tank and the Kradschutzen. Moved the complete core West of the main French defence and surfaced at the S VH. It took the aux LW to suicide against the French air defences and tank attacks in the city to dislodge the French. S...

8 Belgian Counterattack , #7 , Brilliant Victory HQ: Upgraded the Pz I and a Pz II to Pz IV. Crossing the river and defeating the armored attack was the task. Not with 88s but with the by now experienced and well leadered tanks. 2 turns left for BV. OpenGen 0.93.4.0 * 25 Dec 2020 * AI version: Defa...

7 Onslaught of Low Countries , #6 , Brilliant Victory HQ: not enough prestige to do anything sensible The most fun scenario so far. Action in multiple places - offence and defence. The devfire and combat support tanks are a great duo that made the initial river crossing easy. Once the tanks capture...

6 Bodo Evacuation , #5 , Brilliant Victory HQ: nothing at start of scenario. Bought a Bf109E-3 during the scenario when I had enough prestige. Handy to have, but resulted into cap issues :( Again: race forward with everything to the last VH. Last turn BV. OpenGen 0.93.4.0 * 25 Dec 2020 * AI version...

5 Road to Bergen , #4 , Brilliant Victory HQ: upgraded an ancient recon to an 8rad. The tanks landed in the East and gained some easy experience capturing the airfiled so that the LW could be deployed. The trucked units and recon landed as W as possible and supported by all planes raced to the fina...

4 Line on Bug , #3 , Brilliant Victory With the cap close, upgraded the weakest aty. Sent most of the core South, with the core aty and aux air concentrating on the central VH. Easy BV with 2 turns to spare. Those were 4 fun little scenarios. I wonder what the Nordics have in store. OpenGen 0.93.4....

3 Galician Campaign , #2 , Brilliant Victory Still below the cap, so bought a 10,5 lFH18. As promised by the author, this is still blitzkrieg. Fast and short scenario. Could have done BV-1, but wanted some extra exp on the Schutzen, so last turn BV. OpenGen 0.93.4.0 * 25 Dec 2020 * AI version: Defa...

2 Lesser Poland , #1 , Brilliant Victory Bought 2 Pz II. Fast enough for the tight deadlines and not bad for this part of the war. Constructed a few airfields to be able to deploy the planes early and keep them supplied. The Panzers bypassed the first VH and left that to the core aty/inf and the sl...

1 Spanish Expedition , #0 , Brilliant Victory Did not bother about crossing the river in the North and used the Bridging Pioniere to move the Germans and Spanish Cav across South of the two most N Spanish strongpoints. From there on it was a race to the last VH. Last turn BV. OpenGen 0.93.4.0 * 25 ...

So you were in the Belgian Air Force at that time? Or what units used that airfield?

Small airfield - just the 18th Escadrille army light aviation, flying Alouette II. They switched to the anti-tank version of the Agusta 109 later.

In the 4th scenario (Roterturm), Hermannstadt (the VH in the hands of the Austro-Hungarians) is a VH for player 1 but not for player 2. Should it be a VH for both players? Why? I playtested the scenario, captured one Romenian VH after which they recaptured it and I lost the scenario.

I'd like to reserve 1547 if possible. :yes Current Map Reservations: 769-771 / BobC 875-879 / Devil's Brigade 926 / Halberdier 965/ Gustlik 1064-1065 / Patrick Steinmann 1106-1110, 1112-1120 / Nashorn 1166-1168 / gtmx 1251 / Nero 1272 / Paqueo 1287-1290 / General Gordon 1292 / Paqueo 1437-1439 / Sp...

Question: Was the Spitfire lost or did you downgrade it for test/balancing purposes?

somebody remind our old plan: who should make which scen?

9. Assault on Mount Kemmel - Flanders, April 1918 - map 1362? is not taken yet. You can make this scenario if you want to. Unless you really want the 10th (final) scenario. Then we switch.
