CC74 @ 100% done *

[kreuzfeld]

I just completed a playthrough of this CC at 100% prestige levels. It's a curious campaign since in a sense it's impossible to 'lose' -- even a lost scenario still allows one to continue to the next. I achieved victories for most of the early (pre-WWI) scenarios but settled for Losses in several of the WWI campaigns. Even for my victories, I probably had to first re-play a dozen or so of the scenarios for which I first incurred a loss.

Anyway, here's the AAR. I never managed to build up an air force; I also had one nice, strong Arty core unit that was killed a few turns before the end. But I suspected that this was the last scenario so I just kept on.
