What capacity are Airfields and Dirt airfields?

I tried to rebase a fresh unmoved plane to a Dirt airfield in good flying weather but it couldn't fly because the airfield didn't become highlighted when I clicked 'Rebase'. I can't remember if planes were already based there and there presumably wasn't room for another one? Or do Dirts only take sm...

Re: Any terrain mods available?

There are two sliders in Options > Terrain that let us adjust the sun height and position, it's very useful for making contours and other things easier to see..:)

Ah sweet nostalgia, I played tabletop stuff in the 1970's and it still has a strong following nowadays like these guys..:)

Any terrain mods available?

This is a shot from the random mission generator, the trees are fine but way too small.Also the clear terrain is a bit bland with no patchwork of fields etc..

Hi, I'm a PC dummy and as PzCorps2 and my other games run perfectly fine with Win 10, can i ask if we really need Win 11 at all?

Re: Recon planes question

You can check it with the 'L'-shortcut, but if I remember correctly, the recon unit must cover the location from where the attack takes place. Just like when you would be attacking the enemy instead of the other way around. Maybe a bit inconsistent, as combat takes place at the hex of your own unit...

Re: Recon planes question

Accuracy boost is (strength)*(10 + 3*[experience level stars]) percent. So with strength 4, the boost is a lot less. Combat preview ('L' shortcut when the prediction is visible, or afterward) has the calculations. Thanks, and I assume if I park a recon plane over one of my own units as below, it'll...

Re: Recon planes question

Another question about recon planes- I've put my L-2 Grasshopper over that enemy panzer to give a combat boost to any of my ground units that are planning to attack the panzer, but the L-2's strength is down to only '4', so will the combat bonus be less than if it was '10'? Same question applies to ...

Version 1.17.01 crept up on me

I've been playing 1.16.03 for weeks, but I've just noticed by accident that the splash screen now says it's 1.17.01. It's a Steam game but I don't remember seeing Steam automatically updating it over the past few days. is there a list of changes somewhere that i can look at to see if there are any n...

Re: What does the limited stock slider do?

Hmm...I think you may be confusing the two. Prestige is how much "money" you receive each turn during a scenario. Limited Stock is how many replacements you can receive each turn for each unit (Tiger I, Fw 190A, Wehr Infantry, etc.). For example, I begin with only 20 Pioniere units. If yo...

Re: What does the limited stock slider do?

I still don't get it (sniffle).. Look, the Prestige per turn readout is '100' for a 'Tiny' random generator battle at a Default Limited Stock slider setting of '20', (top pic) but even when I set the Slider to its maximum setting of 100, (bottom pic), the PP turn readout is still '100'. https://i.ib...

Re: Traits question

AI doesn't get traits AFAIK. If you hover over their flag in the top right in-game screen it will say "traits: none". Thanks, yes we can choose which traits to give ourself, it's a pity we can't choose which specific ones to give the AI instead of leaving it up to the game to give him ran...

What does the limited stock slider do?

What does 'Limited stock' mean anyway? I ran a search and came up with a bunch of posts but they still haven't sunk into my dull brain. I see the default slider setting is '20' (below) but what exactly would happen if I tried sliding it to different positions? And why wouldn't i want to leave it on ...

Thanks guys, but in the example below, is there any way of knowing if the enemy 8-wheeler will be able to move 1 hex next turn into one of the red-arrowed hexes to get out of the encirclement?

Re: Cheat codes

Cheat codes are a valuable tool when scenario designing because they allow us to try out different prestige point allocations etc etc etc and to spy on how the AI is behaving and make adjustments accordingly. PS- my list of cheat codes is about 5 years old; have any more codes been added since then?...
