Re: 42/43 West- where has my core gone!

I see, the Italians act as a separate core! I need to rethink what I'm doing and keep their best units.

Re: 42/43 West- where has my core gone!

Thanks for your suggestions. I tried over strengthing but the cost seemed to come out of my initial allocation of 2k. I'm on an ipad so I don't have all the custom options. I'm really enjoying these scenarios at the moment, I'm currently at Mt Etna. It is a different challenge as I can't just turn a...

Re: 42/43 West- where has my core gone!

Thanks for the advice on Dieppe. I've just started it and I'm taking a pounding. I think I'll check out the postings on Dieppe.

Re: Spring - Ceasefire on all fronts

I'm guessing it is just you...... No reason you can't do all of the above plus PC. The weather is great at the moment so the dog got a extra long walk plus I fixed the broken garden fences. Now I get to take on the British at Dieppe. That sounds a pretty good day. I know what you mean about 43 fatig...

Re: 42/43 West- where has my core gone!

Thanks Thorsten. I need to choose carefully my best 9 units then. Good tip about upgrading before selecting, although I'm not sure I'm going to make much of a dent in 37k.

42/43 West- where has my core gone!

I'm half way through 43 East and starting to suffer from Tiger fatigue ( if that is possible). I thought I would give 42/43 West a go for a change. I then got a nasty surprise when I could only have a core of 9 and saw my prestige drop from 37k to 2k. I read some of the previous postings on 42/43 bu...

Re: Inquiery DLC 41 players

20K on FM, with 31 units. This was my second time round. First time I reached the beginning of 41 with about 5 K at which point I realised this was not enough. I'm now half way through 43, and I think I could do better if I tried a third time, maybe 25k max. Not sure how others managed more than that.

Re: Dratz! Did it again... What mistake you keep repeating?

Using my fighters for some recreational strafing to knock one point of a randon unit, but seeing they will also then damage me, and then still press the fire button. Trigger happy and dumb in equal measures.

Re: Ridiculous looking units

OK for the sake of balance, what about the GB 2pdr portee. What a mess! If you want to play this monstrosity go to AK and play the allies side.

Re: Is prestige beeing transfered between the dlc campaigns?

Often the DLC have different routes through the campaign. You can play both routes, and then when you load the next campaign it will give you both options to carry forward the better prestige.

Surrender questions

I'm not sure how surrenders work . Does the unit have to be fully suppressed, then it takes damage and can't retreat because of ZOC? Also I don't understand how this gains you prestige.

Re: Dratz! Did it again... What mistake you keep repeating?

At the end of a turn I use the overview button to see if there are any units I haven't moved, which is a great way of seeing if you have forgotten any planes. However I sometimes then hit the end move button while in overview mode which means I don't get to see the dastardly enemy moves, only the re...

Re: Dratz! Did it again... What mistake you keep repeating?

I often forget to reinforce a unit at the deployment phase and only realise a few turns in. I either have to restart or play on with a half decent unit. I have got much better at making a secure front line but occasionally an enemy unit sneaks through to attack one of my more vulnerable units, usual...

Re: Units I have learned to love

I've just played escape from Stalingrad. The first time I played it I thought it would be a straight run for the river, so I didn't take my 2 88's, but just my 2 mobile AA units. The was the first scenarios where there was a continues supply of soviet aircraft and the mobile AA units did get a lot o...

Re: Tiger v Panther v Mark IV

Thanks everyone. I think I have got the idea! Tigers yes, Panthers maybe, Pz IV no. It would be a shame not to have some Panthers so I'll take the suggestions to allocating to a unit with some good heros.

Tiger v Panther v Mark IV

I'm an Ipad player and don't have access to many of the background files. I'm after some advice about what tanks to up grade to. I'm currently at the back end of Stalingrad and I hear that the Tiger upgrade is coming soon. But when does the Panther arrive? I have a healthy amount of prestige, 45k, s...

Re: Units I have learned to love

Enemy units I HATE. Any AA units especially the pesky mobile ones that jump out of no where and lop 2-4 points of my expensive planes. I not sure there is any tactics against this unless you restart. I don't think the AI minds nearly as much when I do the same to him. There was a programme on BBC TV...

Re: Units I have learned to love

Thanks guys for your suggestions. I have decided to buy another strategic bomber. My only concern is whether they are so useful when on the defensive which I guess I will be after 42. I have also bought a StuG AT. I have a Maurder AT and it has been doing OK but I never trust it in the front line, I...

Re: DLC 42 Feedback

Thanks Thorsten for the suggestions. I have just started this scenario and already messed it up. I've probably don't need my two mobile AA units as there are few soviet planes. Maybe I'll get another strategic bomber.
