Modern Conflicts : World War III campaigns

[Tobi72]

In my case, a highly decorated paratrooper unit suddenly disappeared...it was clear to me that they couldn't have deserted...other forces had a hand in this.

[Tobi72]

I am of the opinion that we are not doing anything wrong when creating the scenarios. I have searched for the error several times but have not found anything suspicious. The only remedy, in order not to lose the beloved unit, was to increase the deployment points so that no unit could remain in the reserve.

[bondjamesbond]

Yes, I had this problem too. Units suddenly disappear from one mission to the next.
When I noticed this, I reworked the scenario and set the deployment fields for all core units so that I had no units in reserve. After that, the error was gone and no longer occurred, although I later deployed fewer units in the next missions and the rest remained in reserve, at least in my test. I had also experienced this phenomenon in an unmodified original Panzer Corps campaign.

Oh, OK. It was the first time it happened to me.
I guess we can't do anything to fix it

Well, Uzbek: consider that High-command requiered your unit elsewhere. They allow you to cheat and add the price of a Hind to your prestige points reserve (+ a little bonus to compensate the loss of experience, let's say 250 more points).

Is this when I will be refunded or compensated for the loss ? ))) And what's the point of keeping to train and heal and modernise my personal core unit if it suddenly disappears in the Bermuda Triangle ))))) My little guy survived battles with a ghost to disappear into oblivion when moving from map to map ))))

I have also lost a unit with this discovery. Fortunately, it was a cheap recon unit, in my case
You know, you are in war settings; people tend to disappear.

People can leave a military unit arbitrarily or simply desert due to their own reasons from the banal home relatives got sick to why I should die for someone's regime )))) But I'm missing a helicopter regiment Mi-24 veteran beautiful flying tank pumped up etc ...... I was sleeping and already saw how in the future it could turn into Mi-35 ))))

Well, I finished two seasons for Russia, saved and waiting for the continuation ) Well now I'm waiting for sunny Kabul as I intend to make this country socialist ))))

US campaign operation 2.
I managed to bypass the industrial area in the northeast with a partial force and thus encircle it. The counterattack from the southwest was repulsed after a few moves. Then it was the turn of the conveyor systems and Al-Suwar.
For me it was a successful operation with good ideas and surprises.
If I had anything to criticize, it would be the small core of units I have on the American side. 10-12 core units in total would have been better for me. They compensated with support units but it's not the same. But I think you thought of something, but I hope if you continue this campaign that a few more slots are added to the core.
Victory on turn 35.

Interesting, usually I charge right into the industrial zone


Indeed, I agree that the low US core is disappointing, gameplay wise.
I wanted to focus this campaign on the feeling that American troops play primarily a supporting role, with the SDF doing most of the work. The core player is thus mainly elite units (US marines, Bradley, the air support,...), but in a few numbers, who can't win the mission alone.

This scenario is supposed to represent a real part of the Deir ez Zor campaign and I wanted to stay a little bit realistic: the US (and other Western allies) help consisted mainly on military advisors, special forces, artillery and air support, etc... so I decided to keep the core low. Fear not, the core will grow



I also wanted to have the player respect the pace. That's why the industrial zone is a bit too much fortified for a 2nd mission; in my taste. SDF took 2 weeks before capturing it before being able to advance more quickly on the ennemy rears, so I put enough ennemy units to make sure it don't fall too quickly.

Overall, I had to find a balance between some sort of historical accuracy and the gameplay; and I decided to neglect the second a little too much in favor of the first.


Luckily, the more my story advance, the more it takes a different path from real history. So having to represent more or less well a real situation will not be a concern anymore

Hello!

Here are some news.
I am unfortunately very busy and don't have time to advance my project much
However, I had the time to finish the first scenario of my next capaign before being too busy. Since I don't know when I can continue to work on the next missions; I decided to not let the first one sleep on my computer for months while it is already ready to play.


This link contain the first mission of my future UK campaign (just as a standalone scenario), to be played with the "NATO" side :

https://www.mediafire.com/file/w0c5tqf0 ... w.rar/file

It is an "appetizer" mission. Short, simple, few units involved... but as usual, the player will have to deal with some unexpected events and adjust his strategy accordingly.




I let you discover that yourself, and I'll continue to work on the next missions as soon as I am available...
Or maybe not Akkula is back, and Rimski_one start a new campaign: so I'll also need time to play other MC contents; and I'm not even talking about other Panzer Corps mods! One life is not enough to play everything

Have fun!

Hi ! Welcome back I even missed you a little bit ))) And so Afghanistan a bunch of spirits and a handful of British soldiers fiercely defending their base from the local angry population, now I will translate the text from the pictures to understand what the command requires from me ) So far the result is not very good almost like 200 years ago when the British Empire tried to conquer Afghanistan after India )

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)














Understanding the text is the most important thing especially in your devious missions )))

I replayed it got a little better but the spirits pelted me with hats ))))) I'll try again tonight )





This time I was generally handsome )))) In the end I not only held the base but also destroyed all the attackers ) Replay attached ! )

P.S.
For the igil who pretend to be taliban also interestingly turned out )
And it's great that they come from the edge of the map, rather than suddenly appearing out of thin air between my units)

AI does not know how to transport artillery correctly by transport aircraft to the landing point ! ?

Great.
It's fantastic. I can't wait for the full campaign.
Thank you very much.

[Imeror]

Thanks!

I think I will start to work on the following missions in roughly 3 weeks, I should be more free, then.

AI does not know how to transport artillery correctly by transport aircraft to the landing point ! ?

As usual, it is made only for one side, so I'm not surprised that the British AI did not know what to do with his plane

If I remind well, an AI unit need to have a destination set to know where it have to disembark.
Since this unit is supposed to be controled by the player, I have left the destination empty. So it just stay here, waiting to run out of fuel. Those soldiers are very obedient, isn't it?


PS: Keep your night vision goggle somewhere around you, it can be useful in the following missions

New missions I see we are not happy at all ))))

Hello!

I have returned into the scenario editor, my project continue to advance.

The little new first: I have updated the Artic Strike scenario.
The old (it was decommissioned in 2020) Westland Lynx unit of the french task force was replaced by the NH90 Caiman, available since the last MC update.
The scenario has not changed, but at least you will be able to show this scenario to your hypothetical French sailor friend without him grumbling about outdated units.
As usual, the link is on the first post if it interests you.

More important new : I have finished to create the last scenario of the British 1st chapter. However, I will only release the map pack when the campaign is ready; I firstly need to make a correct english translation, then link the 4 scenarios in a campaign.
The release of both the map pack and the campaign of the British first chapter will happen in the next week


Have fun

Oh that's great news playing WWII scenarios now, I've caught myself thinking that I like modern warfare better still ))))

[Imeror]

As promised... The first chapter of the UK campaign is released



Link toward the campaign: https://www.mediafire.com/file/gl2fwkwr ... 1.rar/file
Link toward the map pack: https://www.mediafire.com/file/i4nw8itp ... 4.rar/file

As usual, installation instructions on the first post.

It contains 4 scenarios set in Afghanistan in 2021, including the first one you may have downloaded in the preview version.
Like my Russian campaign in Syria, scenarios are designed to be relatively short, but a little bit more scripted. I also committed another infiltration mission Don't hesitate to tell me if you don't find them interesting ^^


I also finally tried to modify icon units. It is not exceptionnal, but it works.
During the campaign, you will face Taliban units.



Unfortunately, those Talibans units will only be your opponents in the campaign. The map pack will have ISIL units against you instead, since I want that my map pack change 0 Modern Conflicts files.
They use the same weapon, so just close your eyes when you look at their flags; it will do the trick




With this British chapter, the 1st part of my story is finally ended!
Now, I need to conclude the 2nd part (that I've began) with my next campaign planned: the 2nd US chapter!

I'll reveal my planning for the 3rd part when released, hehe


In the meantime, have fun !

[Tobi72]

Oh very good, you've been busy.
Yes, sometimes you just have to close your eyes and let your imagination run wild.

[superlopez141]

Great news, downloading

[bondjamesbond]

So here we have the Afghan Taliban against the British contingent in Afghanistan ) Well, I already knew how to pass the first mission ) But the second one will have to be translated )))). And this drone - scouting drone will not fall without fuel and what is my group of 2 units looking for when the support is waiting for them at the warehouse ? )

[Imeror]

hehe, I hope you will like it



Uzbek: I forget you can't play AT ALL in English, and this pack is heavy on text... and worse: it's often important texts that are requiered to understand what you need to do
Exceptionally, since it absolutely can't be played without the instructions, I'll make a Russian version, like my Artic Strike bonus mission.

Most of the problems you point are explained in the texts, so don't worry : I'm not mad with an air unit without airfield or a total lack of support for a 2HP ground unit, it's by design.


With an AI, I'm sure I can translate it in around 30min. It will not be as good than with a real person at work, but unfortunately, I had no news from Esther
So, the machine will replace the man, today. Terrifying, isn't it?


I'll be back soon!
