I'm writing this post for anyone who - like I did - have problems with Orkney Islands scenario. I started it 3 or 4 times and had really hard time (on Field Marshal level) before I realized that not Kriegsmarine nor Wehrmacht but Luftwaffe is the key to winning it - and winning it smoothly (I was do...

I can't win this scenario - I even gave myself a ton of extra prestige points and still was unable to get all the cities. Anyone able to beat this one in Sea Lion? The trick is to pull back as close to the river as possible (with infantry placed in cities and close terrain) and defend until Brits r...

OK I tried that and it worked (kinda) I got minor victory. I'd need at least 2 more turns to take the last victor hex and the snowy weather did not help with the offensive last couple of turns. At the beginning I pulled back and concentrated my units around the closest city to to the Thames. I softe...

Thanks, I'll try that next time. Once again hats off to the game design - my favorite so far - even if they bit the crap out of me

Hi there. You did read the briefing and only concentrate on defense until further orders arrive? Good. You have Slovak reserves appearing very soon south of the river and they can take care of that area with some Luftwaffe support, so concentrate your core north of the river. I put an "anchor&...

I just started Sea Lion a couple of days ago on Field Marshal level. First couple of scenarios went smoothly (btw - in my humble opinion this DLC is the best so far in terms of variety of tasks and missions - great job!) until Basildon scenario (it is in Dover path). In this scenario my troops have ...

If the tank of the airplane was red it could be refueled only if directly over the airfield! check if this was the case! if the tank is red doesn't it mean that fuel is zero and the plane cannot move anymore - how then it can move even one hex to be over the airfield? On another note - what are the...

Why not UK Corps DLC? It could go like this: - Norway; - France 1940 - at least several scenarios; - Battle of Britain (only air units - that could be interesting- and the other one a what if scenario - Nazi landing); - optional: Greece, Crete; - African Campaign from UK perspective; - Italy; - Norm...

I like most of the ideas suggested by sauvequipeut in the previous post. I would like to see Allied campaigns start as early as possible and I would like to have separate UK and USA campaigns (like for Germans there were separate East and West campaigns from 41 onward) with one exception. I would re...

What about GC 46 West - conquering USA?

A couple more things that come to my mind (if it's not too late). 1) during deployment faze enable to see unit heroes by right click on the unit in the reserve list or by pop-up screen when moving a cursor over hero icon. This has been added in the last patch (the hovering thing, not right click) G...

A couple more things that come to my mind (if it's not too late). 1) during deployment faze enable to see unit heroes by right click on the unit in the reserve list or by pop-up screen when moving a cursor over hero icon. 2) more powerful heroes in late DLC's. Getting a +2 or +3 hero in the early st...

thanks GSlapshot!

With the release of the Western GCs, a clarification on how many SE units you can have if playing this thread. I know you can have 2 in 1939, 3 in 1940 and 4 in 1941 but it looks likes only 4 in 42-43 West. Any comments? so do you mean 2 in 39 + 3 in 40 + 4 in 41 = 7 overall? I finished DLC 41 and ...

There is one thing that comes to my mind when thinking of future improvements and changes to the game. In many games I can not use all my core units because of limited number of core slots (I don't like the idea of using codes to change that). So I need to choose whether to deploy more of my aircraf...

So, on to my final suggestion. I read on the forum here that a British campaign is likely in the future of this game. I support this, and ask that you add something that i want to se. Being Norwegian, i look for the ability to buy for intance, a Fokker fighter in the Norwegian scenario. you must gi...

H'mm, I'm having a pretty hard time at Vyazma on field marshall and i tried to keep my distance from Leningrad city districts but i do play with a custom set to make it tougher to gain exp. I guess I'm not so great after all if people are finding all these battles easy. Really depends what you chan...

@FOARP I guess nearly every person on this forum who is over 30 is/was huge PG fan, myself including. For me the original PG game was the greatest WWII strategy game ever and that was the main reason, for me, behind purchasing PC (I just couldn't play PG on Vista or Win7). PC turned out to be far be...

@piotrekxg Incredible, I never knew it was possible to reach the island! I think hard enough I can finish in DV and keep my health units. So much so that the two cycles that I passed the scene, I did not conquer all the objectives of the riverbank. Congratulations! I did it only to capture those tw...

Hello, any idea why after achieving DV in Leningrad and capturing following units "Leningrad41 If you manage to destroy Rudanfort at 14,1 and get a parachute regiment to capture it, Rudankorts Ride (SU – 122 ( r ) Anti Tank) and Galja’s Ride (BA – 64 ( r ) Recon) appear on the island to the lef...
