There should be, for me it's under Main > New Campaign > Italy Vol 1 in the list on the right.

Hi -- there's the Westwall FAQ thread:

viewtopic.php?t=118297

It also has a bit on AI-controlled units if you scroll down a tad.

Yeah, the prob is: counters work well for pre-set objectives like "take x victory hexes" or "kill xx units". For those you just mark the hexes or units required in the editor -- the game counts those automatically, and displays the counter for that.

But this does not work for custom objectives ...

Normally, in a long campaign like AO Slow Modernization is not a big deal. Each DLC/chapter covers time slowly enough that being given only 3 upgrades per map is not a big deal until you reach 1943 and all of your infantry is at an older/lesser standard. However, in short DLC campaigns, like Bulge ...

Im late to the party - and i havent found a topic related to feedback on this. Thats strange ?

So far, this is the best "non AO" DLC for me. Tough difficulty (im playing on Generalissimus without mass encircleling and without prestige harvest).
I really enjoyed it, so there are mostly the ...

Thanks for the headsup. Good that you resolved the issue.

I never tested air switches myself, since air units are tied to airfields so I dunno how that affects them.

Had a look. However, first I checked the vanilla Italy cam using the official units file to make sure it runs well -- it did.

Your transportclass file should be fine if you didn't touch it after updating to WW (so v.1.16.03).

Your US infantry edits look ok to me re the LightInfantry entry. Beyond ...

If you modded units before -- is there a chance you continue modding on data files from before Westwall?

WW did change entries for accepted transports/transport class on some previously existing US inf to make them work with the new Dodge truck. Also, in WW some of the new units are either present ...

Please check if you have any modded stuff available that may interfere with the most recent data updates for Westwall, esp. in units.csv and transportclass.csv.

Indeed, it's explained in the mission briefing, I'd encourage players to read it, as it's the best way to communicate more complex objectives.

But even if the initial briefing is skipped you can just bring up the text anytime during a battle, mpolhill.

I tried it on the most recent unit file from Westwall (v1.16.03) and it seems to be ok, pls. see pic
Trait column has now (Overrun,MachineGun,Recon)

Bug or possibly as designed. In the first scenario of Frontlines: Westwall, the player has 26 core slots, but units take up 25. The bridge engineers are an auxiliary unit. Not sure if it was intended, or got accidentally edited, as it's strange to have a free core slot like that.


Hi -- both are ...

As done previously for Bulge here's some more info that may help players.

What is this about?

This is a US campaign starting in late summer 1944 after Allied forces had defeated the Wehrmacht in Normandy and liberated Paris.

Following weeks of fast Allied advances US ...

Bulge was more restrictive in this regard, for example air units were not available in some early battles to show the impact of bad weather at the beginning of the battle.

WW is not limiting things sooo much, with a couple of caveats:

Strat Bombers are intentionally problematic to use, as they ...

Hi, and yes, the unit gfx from this mod are free to use.

Outside Soviet arms deliveries and some domestically produced stuff Nationalist China used a large variety of imported types, but often only in smaller numbers. That would make for a nice use of limited equipment, at least partially.

However, no idea if the guys behind the Chinese content want to ...

I'd like to get in the Beta. I've contributed to a few betas, including all the AO betas. Am I too late? I applied through Steam but only saw the announcement yesterday. Was busy with work but now have a couple of weeks downtime.


I don't handle this part, but from XP there's usually another ...

I'm fairly certain there's other content in the works, but it's not up to me to make far-reaching announcements. And when it comes to other teams they would be in a much better position to share details about their work anyway.

You can already see many screenshots but without the new graphics

We *may* reveal at least a few tiny new bits in the first DD, but certainly the bulk of new additions in the last DD.

Quite unexpected to see another Frontlines DLC so quickly after Cyrenaica.


Indeed, but i like the amount of content per time. :D

I hope the devs kann keep this pace without burning out or something like that. But imagine...allied corps in that pacing...or soviet corps...or AfrikaCorps ...
