Well that was dark.
I managed to get there - but to no avail.
Took some hero combos I don't normally use.
And it's eliminating that big 30SP that triggers the narrative

Prestige in basic game v. DLC

After doing several run throughs of the DLC (up through 1944) I thought I would go back and try basic game again. It seems to me that the prestige award levels are different. In the DLC, after a couple of battles I seldom have any prestige issues, even at generalissimo level. Most of the time I am j...

Re: Ranking hero abilities for harder playthroughs

You can also try the David & Goliath and add limited slots
That way you can have your heroes and still have a challenge.
Works for me anyway.

Re: The best thing about the cheat codes is skipping a scenario

I must confess I have used this code a couple of times lately. I am doing a run-through where I am only using captured equipment, no standard German stuff at all. It's been fun, but the "air force only" scenarios are just impossible to beat as you don't get enough stuff. So I use the code ...

Re: Underused/rated units

Kind of late to this party and must confess I haven't read entire thread, but I like using the T-28 in a support role with artillery & AT support. Even better if you can add tank killer.
Enemy infantry won't ever attack whatever it is supporting.

Does the heroes you get change your approach?

I started this campaign with the intention of using just German equipment with a modified self-imposed collector (Only one pioneer, but no restrictions on other infantry; only one of each type of strat/tac bombers, but no restrictions on fighters; As much as possible, no duplicate tanks, no prototyp...

Re: Question on moving tank to anti-tank

Tanks (only) have a special innate ability to "overrun" Anti-tanks do not have that ability. Other types of units can gain that ability if you assign them the "overrun" hero. For example, I like to assign my overrun hero to the Azul infantry - works wonders So the question is, if...

Question on moving tank to anti-tank

If I move a tank with the award "unstoppable Offense" to an anti tank gun, does it lose it's overrun ability?
Or does it take both that and the "overrun" hero?

  • Do not allow upgrades outside the productions series (so if you want Panthers, they need to start as new units, the Panzer IV remains within Panzer IV family forever).

Random thoughts on collector v. Limited Stock

I like playing with a self-imposed “Collector” trait. I don’t like the standard one as it is too limiting in some scenarios. So I use it like this: Infantry: only one pioneer, one Azul & one heavy weapons; otherwise, multiples OK Tanks & recon: No duplicates Artillery: maximum of 2 copies fo...

My advice is to always read this post before you start your campaign, so that you know what is collectable in the process. https://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=101173 I actually check that all the time - in fact that is how I noticed that I missed it.

Hate it when this happens

I was happily going on through my DLC campaign started in SCW. I was in late 1942. I like playing with loads of heroes, so I was playing with the slot limitation and David & Goliath challenge. I was pretty lucky with heroes (I had something like 5 free slots by then). I was also playing with jus...

I just discovered that when you have Rudel with double move, you can move away from an airfield but still take replacements with your second move.
