After connecting via GME, the units are still vanilla, although the options are already from the mod pack!

Delete the equipment.pzeqp file from the campaign's data folder.

It's now realistic and beautiful ) However, some units are missing. For example, in the first mission, you can't buy more infantry if they die, and in the third mission, there should have been three trucks that needed to be evacuated to designated points, but they're not there. Nevertheless, I won this mission with a triumph ) The game has become more difficult, but, for example, the new cavalry feature of fighting on foot gives bonuses ) So let's continue the experiment ) Thanks, Nico!

I'm following your exploits with great interest. I assume you are using the Pak mod (great project btw). To fix the issues you have described, ask the guys from the Pak mod (or do it yourself) to change the availability date for the units you are missing (like the Polish infantry), and to fix the issue with ID #650 matador truck. If you can share the equipment file of the mod you are using, i will also have a look at the entries.

A very heated battle for three stations. My ace pilot already has four Y-87 Laptechniks to his credit. Let's continue to have fun.

Yes, you're right, it turned out to be a very high-quality chapter, despite some lack of resources that are not available in the mod pack. And yes, we need to go there and organise a rally to get them to add more units for the Poles.

Goose upped a first video of the campaign. He's playing the first two scenarios. You can watch it here:

I started watching the video and that scenario is completely different from my 1st scenario. Mine is the German 7th Infantry Div attack against our border guards. Why are they different?
Thanks.

So let's continue ))) We are defending ourselves, the Germans and Slovaks are advancing, someone needs to be evacuated, but I don't understand who, maybe the cargo vehicles again, but I don't have them in my mod pack yet ) Yes, you can congratulate my pilot on shooting down 5 enemy attack aircraft, because there's no point in flying so carelessly without fighter escort )))

Триумф:
Удержите все цели и разместите не менее четырёх основных отрядов в зоне, отмеченной буквой A.

Победа:
Удержите две цели.

No trucks.

I found the issue with the availability dates of Polish infantry and the "not showing" of the Matador truck. I will try to fix that for the next update.

I just got carried away destroying enemies ) I also enjoyed setting up ambushes in the forest in the next mission )) Will I be able to use my armoured train again, since it hasn't been able to fight for two missions in a row? )

I downloaded again as suggested and I now have the new opening scenario. I had no idea that there was a new version. Is there any way to know that there's an updated version? It wasn't obvious to me.
Thanks.

In the user-made campaign screen, in the description of the campaign i wrote the version number. For now this is version 1.0.

I really enjoyed the Industrial Line - it took me two tries in fact to Triumph it, as I had forgotten how much you love teleporting bridge engineers over "impassable" rivers to convince the AI to flank the player. It worked - they flanked the hell out of me. Second time around I remembered that I am not handling Soviet units (even more: Soviet resources) and kept my troops concentrated.

I still think that 4-5 bombers and only one fighter is a bit of a weird mix for the Germans. But lovely scenario.

On to the next one - it looks like a trudge through the mud, perhaps my least favourite PG/PC predicament.

Not to labour the point, but let me labour the point

By the beginning of the Forest Mud-a-thon, I have shot down in total: 18 Stukas, 2 level bombers and 2 109s.

But the Germans will still have fighters ))) Meanwhile, my ace has shot down seven Ju 87 dive bombers ))) I'm seriously considering selling the armoured train, which is useless, and buying another Polish fighter )))

Air Force forces and losses during the German-Polish War of 1939

P.s.
Liberation Campaign: Aviation in the Soviet-Polish War of 1939. Source and details: http://www.airaces.ru/stati/aviaciya-v- ... 939-g.html


















It was an epic battle, with capture, defence and hunting for German rear service trucks. My glorious pilots added two more attack aircraft and one fighter to their tally of victories. At this rate, the Luftwaffe is in danger of running out of aircraft.

It's a good thing I didn't sell the armoured train; it will come in handy in the next mission. Now I have two of them on this map.


















Everything went well again ) Two more attack aircraft and one bomber went up in flames in the fascist hell ))) I can sell the four evacuated transport aircraft I have in the next mission, which is great )))









Yes, it was an epic battle that lasted almost until the last German soldier was defeated. Overall, it was enjoyable! To be continued...

Trudge, trudge, trudge.

Squish, squish, squish.

I hate mud scenarios.

But this was fun. Quite tough - having to choose which 10 units to send NE makes it even more touch and go. I managed with a turn to spare, but it was tough. I even saw TWO German fighters! Things are truly looking grim.

On to Kowel, hopefully with less slipping and sliding about.

[imp44791]

Also: thanks High Command for recognising my supreme efforts so far... with a SE tankette. I guess this is what's left in the cupboard. That's also why prestige upgrade points were invented.

I also have to choose who to take away and who to leave behind as a sacrifice to hold back the fascist hordes.

In skilled hands, even a wedge heel can be a formidable weapon. It was precisely with this weapon that Poland's first ace fought.

Damn, I lost, I'll have to replay this map ) It's all because of the Fritzes who appear out of nowhere in my deep rear ) So I'm faced with a dilemma: either defend or retreat like animals, not excluding the possibility that the enemy will break through my flimsy positions from behind )))
Thanks, Nico, I'll replace this file right now....
