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.

Great news!
Meanwhile, my valiant Polish cavalry swept away anyone who dared to stand in our way as we retreated like a tsunami, crushing the Soviet and German invaders ))) This mission reminded me of how quickly Marshal Edward Rydz-Śmigły ‘advanced’ towards Romania ;)

It was a massacre, but by the eighth turn I had killed 50 enemy units. At first I was upset that we had been interrupted, but after seeing the inscription ‘triumph’ and examining the battlefield, I realised that even more enemies had appeared )))

I also defended all four bridges from Soviet and German attackers. It seemed to me that the Red Cavalry was the only branch of the military that inspired fear.

I'll have to replay this card because my attack reminded me of a swing at a dollar, but the blow landed on a penny ))) And so, the red devils with their apocalyptic cavalry are to blame for everything ))) Until they came to the aid of their negligent German colleagues, my garrison defended itself valiantly and repelled attacks from stormtroopers of various stripes ))) Perhaps the author should reduce the strength of the besiegers a little, as they are actually many times greater than my Polish troops ))) But I liked the map and the missions, and I will look for a way to victory and, most importantly, to preserve the garrison, because without it, everything that has been conquered and preserved is meaningless )))

P.S.
I was showered with awards, but it would have been better if they had given me backup troops )))

Scenario 3: Steel Rail Defenders

Polish title: Obrońcy Szyn Stalowych
Date: 3 September 1939
Type: Mobile defense
Location: Idzikowice–Opoczno rail junction, central Poland

Idzikowice is more than a station—it’s our last working junction west of the Vistula. If we hold it, we can still move troops. If we lose it, we lose the corridor to Warsaw. The armored train Śmiały is here. Engineers, hold the bridges. And if you must—break the line before they do.


Goose Boy here ,Goose's son, and I've played the steel Rail Defenders battle ad in order to win the armored train the Smialy must survive but as i played the train never showed up I was wandering if this was a flaw or if I'm putting a unit where I shouldn't. Thanks.

There is indeed a very slim chance of the armored train not showing up. For the upcoming update, i have moved it to the edge of the map. Thanks for reporting this.

The Polish campaign has been updated to v1.1

With Nikivdd's e-file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/1n1p0hnw ... e.rar/file
Without Nikivdd's e-file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/97cew495 ... e.rar/file

The first option is if you want to play with my e-file, it has some extra Polish units. You do need to copy the efx file (graphics folder in this download) to the graphics folder where you installed the main game of Panzer Corps (backup first!)

The second option is if you want to play either with a unit mod or your personal e-file or just with the vanilla e-file. In the download there is a zipped vanilla e-file which you will need to be able to purchase Polish units in the opening scenario ( i had to adjust the availability dates of some of the Polish units). Unzip this vanilla file in the data folder of this download.

What is new in v1.1?

- A new opening scenario giving you the opportunity to purchase your first six core units
- Leg two of the branching campaign is now enabled. It adds another 14 scenarios to this campaign
- Improvements to scenarios that were available in v1.0
- Localization for the briefings in German, French, Polish and Russian

Here is the full scenario list:

00. Mobilisation Order
01. Return to Zaolzie (campaign decision leg 1 (scenarios 2-15) or leg 2 (scenarios 16-29)
02. Węgierska Górka
03. Poznan_in Peril
04. Steel Rail Defenders
05. Retreat from Cracow
06. Cavalry in the Kampinos
07. The Battle of Bzura
08. Lublin Air Bridge
09. The Industrial Line
10. Flight Through the Forests
11. Chaos at Kowel (Now Kovel (UA))
12. Lost Army of the East
13. The Siege of Lwów (Now Lviv (UA))
14. Skirmish at the San River
15.The Przemyśl Corridor
16.Fire at Mokra
17.Bitter Dawn
18.Ambush at Różan
19.Battle for Piotrków
20.Defenders of Wizna
21.Battle of Kałuszyn
22.Retreat from Białystok
23.Counterstrike at Bóbrka
24.Battle of Tarnawatka
25.Raid on Zamość
26.Battle of Husynne
27.Defense of Chełm
28.Forest Fight at Szack
29.Skirmish at Kock
30.Fight or flight? (savecore)

Thank you for all the feedback i have received sofar. Together we keep Panzer Corps alive.

I believe that in order to continue playing with the mod pack, I need to download version 2?

Only as my personal preference I would suggest to use more vanilla-style icons for your version of mod with additional units, for example:

It is my personal preference as well but i didn't have these units. If by any chance you have the icon for Armored car wz.29, 4TP and 9TP tanks, that would be really great.
And many thanks for sharing those icons.

So this time the garrison survived, but we were rudely interrupted by an early triumph. However, if that hadn't happened, there would have been more casualties on both sides ))) See the screenshot and replay for more details!

Judging by the tasks on the next map, we can either head straight for Romania or defend ourselves and fight ))) Let's see what awaits us there and then decide )))

Image
Image

Preliminary reconnaissance revealed that it will not be easy to hold back the Red hordes, because the Red cavalry is as fierce as ever ))) But I will try to update and adapt my tactics against them! And the VIP bosses are more of a burden than a help ))) Since it is not possible for me personally to deploy my glorious armoured train in this mission, I will have to sell it, because I feel a strong lack of prestige )))

I think the best icons of these units are from PAK-mod:

This time, I held all the important points, but still lost because many of my troops and VIPs were killed. After the defeat, I don't have any text because the screen is black and it is impossible to continue the game, so I had to exit through the task manager.
