Re: Erik's campaigns, mods and multiplayer scenarios

Erik, I tried to join the new Overlord 2v2 with you and Omistaja, but the JOIN button doesn't work. I tested it on the regular (not a mod) multiplayer screen and it worked with another scenario. Pressing the button doesn't open the screen to allow you to pick your faction on your mod. Any ideas? I b...

Re: How do you add paratroops to a scenario

From the scenrio editor manual: Spawned Transport: In some situations, units with transport cannot be placed directly on the map. Specifically, paratroop units in flight must be created with a Spawn Unit trigger by assigning an air transport unit to the paratrooper unit. Similarly, troops on board t...

Re: What DLC should I go for?

I agree wholeheartedly with Bru on the gameplay critique. I disagree with the limitations imposed by WWII, there is a ton of content that has never been scratched (e.g., Erik's corps-level DLCs, there could be a whole DLC for the Allied capaigns in Italy from July 1943 to April 1945, campaign for Rz...

Re: What DLC should I go for?

I agree with Karis and Francois, the multiplayer aspect is the most entertaining. Also, I remember playing the Imperial Japan DLC (Rising Sun) and really enjoyed it. It's a good first purchase I think. But the japan v china one is good too (Morning Sun). Welcome to the community, Exante! Panzer corp...

Re: right installation order for DLC?

Erik said: "Hey Bru, good to see you are still around. I think Slitherine should either bring the game to Vietnam, Middle East etc or put it in public domain. Then someone could run with it, create a new version and Slitherine buy it back (like with Panzercorps 2). Erik" I concur! I think ...

Re: Scenario editor is pretty bad nor is it me? (scenario format reverse engineering?)

Bethune, I disagree with Erik in that most tasks in the editor are not intuitive. I recommend you follow his advice and read Bru's manual. There are a lot of posts in the Scenario Design forum that relate to how to use the editor. You can always give it a try and post questions on here when you get ...

Turn Ended before I could start movement

Playing a four-player PBEM++ game, after completing watching all the other players' movements, I had a standard pop-up message that one of my commanders was wounded. When I clicked "Continue", the game ended my turn and returned to the screen that shows all the multiplayer games. The game ...

Re: Using historical units as your core forces in campaigns

Yep, Erik, I think that battalion sized units are best and use about 1/2 mile hexes which is a standard coverage for US infantry battalions. Only thing is, I think it makes the artillery range much shorter than actual. EG, range of a 155 was about 14 miles, or about 28 1/2 mile hexes. That seems a l...

Re: Community Content: Conboy's Operation Dragoon

Gee Whillickers, Jakemon! You just inspired me to finish up a couple others I've had on the back burner for some time.

Thanks for the compliment and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Every now and then, you get one right!

Thanks again and Happy Holidays,

Lost internet and couldn't download turn

Shards, gfs26,
I couldn't upload my game turn because internet dropped out here. Thought it was the game's fault but it wasn't. I'll try to replay turn and upload when wifi returns here.

Sorry... this is in reference to the tournament underway

Re: What are you cooking ?

Bru, I think there is a virtual universe of WWII content that Slitherine has not even scraped (or Erik for that matter). Most of their campaigns are Front or Theatre Levels, but there is a hell of a lot of content to be developed at operational level. For example: US/Britain Italian Campaign Operati...
