Good luck with the next one - it's much worse

Thanks for that !

Thanks for the info.
But how do you progress beyond the first German move? I mean the replay starts and then stops (does not progresses with the allied turn)...?

Thanks but where do I need to put this file?

That's what I'm trying to do but at turn 12 (look at my screenshots) with 5 enemy panzers attacking and 88s untouched I am sure to fail

I'm playing Field Marshal with AI setting 2 and combat random none - chess

I didnt have much problems with this one. 2 Strat bombers, 1 tac bomber and I think 2 paras did the job. Of course I took a bit of damage and lost 1 unit but nothing too serious. Are You Serious? Two para stopped the endless stream of enemy arty and infantry combined with the 5 Panzers !? What abou...

I know what I have to do (read my brief above) but how do I do it?!

Thanks Tarrak you just confirmed my suspicion. A replay is needed forsaking 150th. I followed exactly the same strategy as you have and the blasted 150th are alive and well at turn 11 BUT I haven't even tackled the 88s. So not much hope there. On top of that the sleeping German armor in the deep sou...

Can someone enlighten me how to win this stupid game?

I'm not talking about the 'scenario description' confusion.

How do you keep '150th' alive and destroy the 88s at the same time?

OK I decided to replay the game once more. Completely different felling. Triumph at turn 14. But I think chance played a big role. DAK attacked in waves the last one came at turn 14 (too late). I've send three paratroopers at the airport, the rest of my troops toward Tobruk. This time I bought 3 Typ...

Found my old replay for this scenario. Hope this helps. http://www.fileswap.com/dl/8kFtWo04VY/(08.06.2013)_Crusader,_Turn_18.pzrpl.html Well it helps more than the global 'divide your troops in two columns' or 'attack here (or there)'. But more information would help even more like difficulty and/o...

Looking for Triumph or Victory

25 sheets of plywood and 23ft of foam

I don't think so either! Yeah I have a hard time on that scenario as well for a DV, especially taking all the refueling into account. I think the round limit is a bit too low - 19 or 20 would be more appropriate. No, thank you :D I won't even try replaying this one, there's nothing I can do to break...

Which campaign?

I don't remember BUT have upgraded from long range 21 with hero to StuG. It's worth the prestige spent

The 43 & 44 West DLC are noticeably different in a good way. I find them harder then Eastern scenarios. As to the core force I didn't fall into the trap of maintaining 'historically accurate' core and updated to the beast equipment available. 'Where's fun in that?' someone may ask, well the game...

In this scenario any panzer supported by arty will either survive or take very limited casualties when attacked. Just make sure you always have enough amo! I didn't and the result was the two poor Ferdinand's. I went out too soon and had to regroup latter on... I'm surprised that you lost so much at...

BUT what I had not known until now & having played through all eastern front DLCs :oops: is that airports with enemy units next to it apparently dont refill my planes and all my 7 aircrafts are falling down the skies within 2 turns!! The one aircraft that's right on top of the airfield will (sa...
