[Poland] "For your freedom and ours" - Za Wolność Waszą i Naszą Campaign/Kampania v1.0 (24/07/25)

[goose_2]

Hello Nico,

I played Scenario 3 this morning. Found it to be way too easy. I started out scared as I did not have enough to buy the needed 3rd artillery until after the 6 prestige I get per round. (Double Rommel takes a bite.)

I loved it and was prepared to have a knock down drag out fight. The initial phase was scary and the 2 Bombers were a powerful enemy attack that was difficult to Mitigate, but once I was able to get the supply trucks back to that area of the map, which was super easy. All challenge went away as I gained so much prestige and was able to almost eliminate the enemy that it became a kicking puppies scenario.

The heroed Fighter was too op, and should be scaled back.
Their shoudl be a second phase of attack force that makes a grown man cry, but that never really came.

I will post on Monday again along with my sons playthrough, which he said he map wiped Scenario 3. Poznan Defesne

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I agree to scale back the heroed fighter (2 Attack instead of 4 Attack). The map is rather small because i never planned for a second wave but i added a little something to make it slightly harder for the supply trucks (and i decreased prestige gift).

Thanks, because I do like it tight, and I had enough prestige to give all units elite replacements and upgrade units to better equipment. I am going to stick to no more than 1 of every unit, now that I had enough prestige to change the initial units given. Love having 4 arty's to play with, maybe one more mortar inf with 1 range?

Right now I am having trouble with OBS as my son messed with the screen and so I set it back to default, and now I cannot set it to record my screen again. I will keep doing research and hopefully get everything squared away by this weekend/.

A general nerfing comment, since you are reducing Skanski's bonuses (which I will miss): you might need to cap experience to 225 or thereabouts, especially since you plan a continuation campaign. Said Skalski just got to 402 at the time of the Chaos scenario.

This is the adjusted PaK mod equipment file.
I did not remove or add anything, just adjusted availability dates for certain Polish units to 1938.

equipment.zip

Everything is working fine now )

Everything was going well but at the end I was again defeated although I defended all the important points, defeated all those who appeared in my rear + shot down all the enemy aircraft and brought my 10 units to the points A ! Or there must be some golden troops consisting only of infantry and cavalry !? )

[imp44791]

OK, I don't play Quadruple Rommel like others here but the Chaos scenario was on the easy side. Not enough enemy air in general (zero fighters), and my units have got too much experience by now. They feel like 1944 veterans, even with their 1939 stats.

This is a fabulous campaign, with the variety of challenges one has come to expect from this modder all these years. It just needs a bit of tweaking.

I am not sure I like the thought of limiting the exp, as am not playing on FM level, and as such kind of like the idea that my units can garner exp quickly, but think need to feel like I am barely hanging on with prestige
just my 2 cents

Polish Campaign 6.png

Excellent, as I continue to move forward.










The Ukrainian police inscription amused me )))







This idyll between the Red Army and the Wehrmacht, with their joint capture of Polish and Ukrainian cities, amused me )))

I don't understand why I failed here. I held or regained all the important points when I lost them on the next turn with a counterattack, killing all the Germans and Reds. Only one enemy aircraft and one anti-aircraft gun remained, and I delivered VIPs to two points A. The warehouse also remained intact! What went wrong?

Зоны, отмеченные буквой A, находятся в северо-восточном углу карты и к югу от Засмыков. Основные и вспомогательные наземные подразделения засчитываются для выполнения этой задачи.
В северо-восточной части карты расположены 2 зоны A, и ещё 2 зоны A находятся у южного края карты.
Триумф: Удержите Засмыки, Турзиск, Лубитов и железнодорожный узел Ковель; переместите 4 наземные единицы в любую зону, отмеченную буквой A.
Победа: Удержите Засмыки и переместите 4 наземные единицы в любую зону, отмеченную буквой A.

(i hope this makes sense)

Hi, there's a tiny bug in Wegierska Gorka: if the city is already occupied by another polish unit, than Armoured Train does not appear. My suggestion is to move its entry to square 24,3 - map borders are excellently suitable for incoming reinforcemens in case that such kind of collision could not happpen.

Fixed. Thanks for noticing.

I understood everything, but I had trouble seeing those two hexes at the bottom of the map. They are simply faded compared to the other two located at the Soviet airfield at the top of the map.

That's awesome,have you thought of adding an alt-history path for those who go above and beyond

You probably read through all the previous posts. As i mentioned, two legs of the campaign are historical, the third leg will be a-historical. The upcoming update will include tweaked scenarios of the first leg and all 14 scenarios of the second leg.
Then i will start working on the third leg of 14 scenarios. There are no what-ifs in the historical paths.

Sorry, I got excited by the post so I didn't read. That's awesome man, I always enjoy all your content

[nikivdd]

Development update:

All 14 scenarios of the second leg are created of which 5 scenarios still need testing. The next update is definately taking shape.

Now i can announce the third leg of the campaign:

Alternate-History Third Leg - 14 what-if scenarios

They told us Poland would fall in two weeks. That we were doomed the moment their tanks crossed the border.
But here we stand. Weeks later, still fighting. Still breathing.
We’ve watched cities burn, bridges collapse, and friends fall. The Germans strike from the west, the Soviets creep from the east. They think we’re finished. That we’ll lay down our arms and accept defeat.
They are wrong.
Every forest we hold, every train we derail, every village we defend is one more blow against their victory. They may have more tanks, more planes, more men — but we have something they cannot break: our will.
We fight not because we expect to win. We fight because it is right. For our families. For our country. For those who will remember.
The world may forget how Poland was betrayed. But it will never forget how Poland fought.
Za wolność Waszą i Naszą.
For your freedom and ours.
Now, saddle up. The war is not over yet.

Coming soon.

[bondjamesbond]

And so we continue the Polish campaign ))) Finally, I found all 4 hexes where I need to deliver my army ) Next, as I understand it, I have to retreat and not surrender well, let's see how things go for us on this map )

[nikivdd]

I have updated the first page of this thread. The Polish Campaign is now a part of "Panzer Corps Campaign series".
It makes things more simple and easier, so all downloads will be in one place, on the first page.
A careful estimate is to release an update for the Polish Campaign sometime next weekend.
