Two things I wish the game had. A page print so I could study the map and some sort of way to look back at lost units rather than to just have them disappear.

I played the first few games of GC 41’ to see how the 1.20 engine worked. With an imported corp. I was able to take the map the first scenario so instead of more of that I switched to standard. I like the new rules for arty and air attacks. Occasionally getting no suppression from artillery is ...

I played this several times on col. Level with a standard core. and as far as I could get was an MV at Celles on turn 15 or 16. Unfortunately to do it, I had to take heavy loses and ultimately it makes more sense to play conservatively, take the loss and maintain prestige and forces. Especially ...

Standard core, dv 16, col level, ended 3911 prestige

Had to play this one twice as I only got a mv the first time and had significant casualties. Found myself bogged down in the south both times. I added two infantry units and a Tiger, and used them extensively, they were well worth it. I made some ...

Standard core, DV on 12, Col. Level, 4600 prestige

I liked the V1’s (my grandpa used to call them buzzbombs) and even though they seem to be a bit prolific and powerful, it is an interesting way to start the game off. I think I would leave them in just for fun, even if not entirely accurate.

The ...

Lt. Level, MV turn 15
Ending prestige 459
Losses heavy

I captured all the victory objectives and the game did not give me a DV. I didn’t see anyone else with a similar problem, but I’m sure I had them all. I lost:
1 arty
1 recon
1 tank Pz. III H
2 88’s
M-14
Bf 110 by mistake
Maybe some more, not ...

14/14 Lt. 687 prestige at end.

I had the same thing happen; I took everything but the airfields but no DV until the end of 14. After Ras el Mdauuar I was afraid that my corp was too far destroyed to continue much further, however playing a good game in Brevity (2 attempts) got me back on track.

Lt level, DV Turn 14, 2nd attempt

I upgraded the Grenadiers to Pioneers and did a straight pincer attack on the north and south. I was able to break through on both fronts by turn 6 and the Matildas were taken care of fairly easily by the 50mm, my Pz.Jag. and an M-13. After capturing Ras el Mduuar ...

Following directions helps! I played twice more and was able to DV on turn 10 by heavy pincer attack, then coming down on the trapped inf. with inf., arty, and a couple Pz. IV’s. The paratrooper attack was easy to deal with since I knew it was coming. I enjoyed the game but as I mentioned I played ...

Standard core, Lt. level DV turn 19, ending prestige 8344

I got the victory but at a very high cost. I think it would be easier to list the survivors rather than the casualties. I lost 6 tanks, 3 arty, etc. I think I’m going to go back and replay to see if I can spring the trap a little better ...

Standard core, Lt. level. started w/ 4000 prestige, DV in 14 w/ 1430 prestige left. Lost an infantry unit and a Stug 42.

This was an interesting scenario. I took the hill with no problem then retook Taine and the three surrounding airfields. I defended this area for a while, but decided to make a ...

Lt. level, standard core. This was a neat game. I like the different objectives as it gives an added sense of realism. I’m looking forward to breaking out to sector C in the next scenario. The shifting counter attacks were good too. I only lost one Stuka, but came close several times to losing ...

I know 43 has gone live, but after an extended illness, I finally finished Ponyri. Lt. Level, Standard Core, After upgrading three panthers, re arming and buying a Wespe and sIG 38t I had 1126 prestige to start, ending with DV in 17, with 181 prestige left.

For what it's worth, Very cool scenario ...

I think campaign trees in the library is a great idea.

Lt level, standard core, starting prestige 1000 after rearmament, ending 70.

Marginal victory, 16 turns.

I thought this was a great scenario, it kept me guessing. After dispatching the northern attack, I headed south, took out the southern attack and headed east. I didn’t get far with the Soviet ...

I thought the difficulty on this one was about right. After 3 marginal victories in Kharkov, I decide to use a cheat code thinking that Belgorod would be impossible if I wasn't over strength. I blasted through it, so decided to go back and replay starting from mostly regular strength (10) and ...

So, I start off with the pre built core on Colonel difficulty. I proceed with a straight forward attack with the eastern forces defending the Donets and the western forces moving forward toward Kharkov. It was not to difficult defending the Donets, although I lost a Pz. III N and a Pz. IV G early ...

Wow, I wouldn't call this one easy, Russians kept up flank attacks and I lost a captured t34, a stug, an infantry, and multiple recon units. Maybe I went too fast, I got the decisive victory on turn 15, but paid a steep price.

First, thanks for the opportunity to take part in the beta. I started the campaign on Lt. level because I’m sort of a novice and I find it easier to maintain prestige levels further into the game. I thought the escaping locomotives was an excellent idea and a neat way to expand the game. Pushing the ...
