It's a history lesson, you lost Britain you lost the war, and it's not your soldiers' fault.

6. Barbarossa It's weird that Russians did not take any extra caution even after Britain's fallen. Anyway Operation Barbarossa is still possible, yet it doesn't mean this scenario is easy. After Sea Lion, the challenge level has been up a notch. I don't feel like I could say much about this one. As ...

Very interesting. I believe you are right, the numbers fit my impressions. I didn't pay much attention to probabilities for I can see them directly and have an idea. I am dying to know about how initiative comes into work though. I knew it's not linear, and around a difference of 4, there is also a ...

Oh, sorry, now I see what you meant. I thought you were talking about expectations since you emphasized on "before shots".

This cannot be right, for you did not take initiative into account. More I have played, more I come to realize that initiative may be the most important attribute of melee units in Panzer. For instance, when you attack a Mustang, usually you will find yourself probability-wise facing more losses tha...

Thanks, really appreciate it.

With Panzer Corps , I'm having amazing WW2 experiences while exploring some ingenious mechanism of the game. I have also come across lots of frustrations from rookie mistakes, and some of them took me time and thankfully helps from forum to figure out. So this note is devoted to first-timers who are...

If this is your first attempt at campaign, obviously you've read more than enough from forum. So why not give your theory a try first? Because at this stage of the game, great room of error is still allowed and can be amended later, and with your knowledge of the game, I'm sure you'll do just fine. ...

Yup that Russian mud sucks. I've come to accept a decisive victory in Moscow 41 is unobtainable. At least on the highest difficulty levels, especially with bad weather. Luckily I only want a MV to get the extra 3 scenarios in before America...even a loss would be ok (though I assume I won't get as ...

Yep, I believe Horseman are speaking from experiences here.

The thing about Recons in campaign is that you will get one or two from AUXs for almost every scenario that needs one.
As capturing cities goes, well, mounted Infans are doing as fine.

First of lying, then of cheating? Those are very serious personality accusations. The way I see it, all the man did was to reply a thread, offer some feedbacks and play the way he likes. As far as reloading is concerned, I'm sure everyone does so, to a certain degree. So... Chill & Cheers everyo...

Just kidding, I understood Dreadwing and share his view.

Come on, don't beat the guy up.
I'm sure coming here and putting so much thoughts and words into it means he likes the game very very much.

I believe it's only logical that you'll get less prestige when you achieve a decisive victory. Usually an unintentional MV player barely comes by, it's sadistic to put him into a more difficult situation than a DV palyer... But this is against the concept of prestige = standing or estimation in the...

BTW, on colonel level, I believe you will get about 400 more prestige from a MV than DV, if otherwise you played all the same.

I believe it's only logical that you'll get less prestige when you achieve a decisive victory. Usually an unintentional MV player barely comes by, it's sadistic to put him into a more difficult situation than a DV palyer. See it as a challenge, rather than a bonus. 8) As far as numbers go... Well I ...

However, I have to give up on ATs either, it turns out I won't even have that kind of prestige, maybe I should have made the exchange from day-1. :( I'm still in Moscow, and estimates under 10k prestige in USA, reinforcement fee included. So I'll have to make a choice between PZ4Ds vs Pershings and ...

@soldier
For once I was blind, but now I can see.
Appreciate it, man, you really bring my game to a whole new level.

I actually prefer the current arrangement. Easy to start, even for advanced players, and more importantly makes later campaign challenging level on track.
Since it really doesn't have a long term effect, except for prestige, just see it as a challenge if it's not your favorite starting.

In the tutorial, it's suggested that AT units will suffer a penalty when initiate an attack. The lack of further elaboration (numbers), however, really bothers me, and therefore I hadn't build any ATs before, which turned out fine until now. Currently I am in Russia under Rommel and aiming for the M...
