It would require careful balancing - not all traits are meant to be massively increased, but I like the concept. As for limited stock - it would benefit from separate sliders for unit types, inducing an "unlimited" options for basic infantry. All of these however would require some more r...

Plus, don't expect any of the AI's units to be less than 4 stars of experience any longer. You see that already in AO43. So something as dramatic as you are suggesting is unnecessary. There's simpler ways of getting what you want like trying some of the multitude of challenge options. [/quote] I hop...

The base game Bagration mission is one of my favourite ever PC game battles and gave a sense of achievement that many of the more usual "sweep everything aside" missions do not. Whilst I, of course, want to rewrite history, I am looking forward to the challenge of looking after my battered...

Excellent news! Of course, this means more of my life will disappear into the PZC2 universe as I will have to complete the AO campaigns in full both historically and ahistorically. I'll be interested to see just how (un?)achieveable the new Elite objectives are. Not all imported Cores are stuffed wi...

So, imagine my disgust (and horror) to see my recon overflight of Neufchateau reveal De Gaulle's Char BI unit parked there with 5 XP stars. HE'S DEAD, I SURROUNDED HIS UNIT AND WIPED HIM OFF THE MAP TO THE LAST MAN IN THE LAST BATTLE. Have you ever seen in movies or other video games(Close Combat.....

Here's a bug report for AO 1940. I'm on the Neufchateau mission, having managed to completely eliminate De Gaulle's nemesis unit on the previous Abbeville map. So, imagine my disgust (and horror) to see my recon overflight of Neufchateau reveal De Gaulle's Char BI unit parked there with 5 XP stars. ...

If it hasn't already been asked for, can the devs implement independent prestige and accuracy difficulty sliders? I'm always drowning in prestige (in a very non exploitative play style) but don't like the principle of giving the AI material accuracy bonuses. Playing with standard accuracy rules for ...

I'm all for actually being able to prioritise the capture the power station at Volkhov and then fighting my way to the (rather beautiful and slightly Roman) central square in Leningrad / St Petersburg and taking a tour around the Hermitage. If you haven't yet been to St Petersburg, go. If anyone ca...

I can agree that units that appear on the map ahead of their historical production or introduction period can be out of place. At the same time, the LaGG-3 fighters were replaced with I-16s in two scenarios, so it's not like the voice of the players is ignored entirely. Pazner Corps 1 and in fact a...

and obviously an option since 'no airforce' trait would make it unwinnable. You say it's obvious, but it was not an optional scenario in it's initial iteration. Only after the fact was this realized, and the scenario converted into an 'optional' mission. :P This has me a bit worried. To maximize my...

I really enjoyed PC1. The Heroes in this game seem to be way too much for my taste and that's why I haven't purchased this game. Can you play without Heroes enabled? If so, would the game still be enjoyable? Thanks for any opinions. Hi. They are definitely removable - as previously said, use the Ad...

Late to the party as I haven't been on the forum for a while......if the vote remains open, my bets are: 5B, 5C and 5E. Loads of scope for campaigning in the Baltics / Leningrad / Finnish border area - cutting off the arctic convoy lifelines to Murmansk (and maybe Archangelsk?) and a full-on assault...

I haven't quite gone that far in my latest playthrough, although I've always been a leg infantry proponent. I've taken the Italy branch for the first time in 1943 and have been "levelling up" accordingly in the prior battles - slow modernisation, my favourite trait, really bites in 1943 as...

Personally speaking, I hope that "accessibility" of scenarios (e.g. moderating challenge levels) isn't a mantra you stick to rigidly in later DLC. I'd prefer tough battles (medium sized battles can also be tough) with perhaps a couple of extra turns on the clock to allow for sensible asset...

Well i looked at both the sealion maps(25 turns) and the bagration map(21 turns)... i dont see the comparison.Click to open. https://i.ibb.co/3Fgpm3w/compairson.jpg It takes 3 turns to move the units and engage the enemy in the north from bialystock the deployment zone... That leaves 17 turns to de...

Have you thought about recalculating the impacts of replacement. The Germans in 44/45 had some of the most potent units available even after the eastern front and suffering losses. I believe that if there is more than half the available original units there should be little no loss of experience as...

Infinite spawns - and infinite prestige to repair both. It's strange how the perception of the AI having infinite prestige comes to be. AI has near 0 prestige, with always 0 to start and only a per turn income of about 100 or 200. Compare that to the tens of thousands of prestige put at the players...

I love the idea of the Nemesis enemy, they add some RPG elements to the campaign. But to be honest, as long as they can be encircled and surrendered, they don't pose a real threat. I actually intentionally encircled him and let him live until the last mission. But he can only cause a bit trouble in...

Really pleased - for utterly selfish reasons - that you continue to reap the benefits of scratching a very particular itch for a very particular sort of consumer.

Command, control, victory through thought, implementation and decision-making rather than twitch skillz. Please, please keep it coming!
