Thanks for the responses. The back story is that I had to rebuild my pc and reload all of my PC files. I have also become addicted to Niki's GC mods and reloaded those as well. With the old OS (Win7) everything was fine, and surrenders generated prestige. The current setup appears to run great, but ...

Any chance that someone may know why one would not get prestige from forcing surrenders? Playing on Manstein and Rommel, 1.2 version, reform units and 2 AI.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the replies. I agree about CG45 being more interesting the GC44. I'm "trying" a Manstein campaign and IS2's at that level are rather painful. Good idea about infantry in transport mode, as I never would have thought of that. Although half-tracks are expensive, that just might do...

Looking for some advice on pushing a unit out of a city or fortification, without killing it. I've been fooling around with setting up traps for aircraft and looking at ways to use enemy units as spotters. Currently in a 45 East campaign and some of the victory hexes are defended by AT guns. I can s...

For those of you looking for something different, you might find Soren's latest GC of interest. He's playing with the FM, R and M options turned on

Hopefully the link works.

Looking for some ideas for Mogilev on Manstein. Soren has an interesting forward strategy that defends the outpost line but I'm wondering if it would be better to fall back to the large river that runs through the city and grind up the Soviets on the 3 bridges, as it appears that forcing surrenders ...

Been following Soren's Manstein campaign and just about done with the 43 campaign. It's been a challenge but every now and then fun things happen and this time the hero generator went nuts. On the third turn, Lent picked up a +3 defensive hero and later in the same scenario, one of my HE-177A's pick...

Not actually a memoir but Richard Overly has one named "Blood and Ruins: The Last Imperial War". Read it a couple of months ago and thought it was an interesting read about the war from many perspectives. Like most books I can't say that I agree completely but still some food for thought.

I've been playing a GC on Manstein and for ideas I was watching both Braccada and Soren's Youtube videos. Unfortunately Braccada appears to have moved on and I'm just not swift enough to play at Soren's level, so I was wondering if there are other players who have played campaigns on Manstien and ha...

To update your SE unit, you must create an SE43 unit with the bonus trait in your equipment file. in case of creation, do not forget to modify the Units, bigunits, efx files A further update: Glaude1955 was correct as it turns out the method of transport trait (land, rail, sea etc...) was off by a ...

I did and all showed up.

Just tried it the "all eqp" tip and it does work. Not sure why the unit doesn't show up without using the cheat but I can live it for now.

Thanks!!!

An update: Downloaded the file and installed but the missing 43 SE regular infantry are still missing from the options if you try to upgrade your awarded SE infantry. You can see all of the 43 infantry upgrades for both Wehr and SS when the 43 campaign starts so it's puzzling. If you open the equipm...

I've been using nikivdd's equipment file with his modified grand campaigns. Recently I've been trying the campaigns on Manstein and when I got to the 43 East campaign, the SE regular infantry disappeared as an upgrade option. The mountain and heavy infantry are there but that's all. All three types ...

I'll second the mod part. As I've posted before Nikivdd multiple mods have really made this game for me. There are many great mods out there that I haven't tried so please do not think that there is only one mod to try, try them all and enjoy the depth and the challenges they bring. The other reason...

Thanks Dalfrede. I've been using an equipment file from nvkkid(sp) along with his mod's for all of the grand campaigns and it's great. Plenty new twists and I think he's done an excellent job of keeping PC1 relevant for those of us who have been playing for years. I highly recommend them if one is l...

Was there a reason why the SE units that you can pick up during a campaign are limited to infantry, tanks and aircraft?

It seems to me that the units in the AT group should be in there as well as Elephants and Jadpanthers could come in handy from the end of 44 on.

Thoughts?

Hi faos333, Thanks for checking and you bring up a good point about the bonus units. While one can generate a fair amount of prestige over the course of the campaign, I have a feeling that by the middle of 43 I'll be burning it as fast as I can get it. But there are a slew of guards units in this sc...

Over the past year I've been trying my hand at the GC 39-45 on Manstein. Lots of great videos and suggestions from folks in the forums but I've hit the wall , trying to get the bonus units in the Streets of Moscow. Part of the problem is that by using Nico's equipment file the Russians have two mobi...

Sounds great and thanks for all of your work. I think that efforts like this are very worthwhile as they allow a great game to live on.

Good luck!!!

Hi Pete, my error as there are only Wehrmacht and SS units that can be purchased. That said, I am also using Nikivdd's equipment file which may have more types of units available than the original equipment file. >Wehrmacht vs SE or SS > >by PeteMitchell » 26 Sep 2020 23:41 >Are there SE artillery o...
