PzC Campaign Series - Polish Campaign v1.3 (27/08/25) - Fall Weiss v1.0 (16/08/25) - Eagles in the Sand v1.0 (29/08/25)

Hello !

I want to try your campaigns soon, but I have a question first.
For now, we have 3 campaigns with different factions, but are they in the same alternate history setting ? I ask that because I wonder if I can I start with italian "Eagles in the sand" campaign, or if it is better to start with the polish and german ones to have a better picture of the global strategic situation in your timeline ?

You can start with any campaign you want. All campaigns are historical except for one leg in the Polish campaign that is ahistorical.

[Imeror]

Thanks for your answer.
Since your upcoming french campaign has an alternate history setting, I thought that your other ones from those last months were also in the same case.

So, time to start my Carro Armato, to begin with

[bondjamesbond]

And so the continuation of the Italian eagles in Africa with mod pack )))) All the same the merger of Niko's work and mod pack developers changes the game very much in the direction of historicity and realism ) True not all units have documentary photos as they actually looked in reality but I hope this problem will be solved in future updates )

Interesting turn out ) I went on the counterattack captured the city but got hit by the newly arrived new English forces ))))) Lost many of my pumped up units but eventually held all positions )))) As I understand I already play and command much better than the Italian army in reality judging by the description ))))

Tanks matilda 2 very survivable and well armoured that was also in reality !

What do you mean, replay it? Have you updated them now or do you want someone to tell you whether your replays work or not .......












Oh it was an epic battle but I still held the fort, scattering all the advancing enemies from the Anglo-Saxon alliance ))))

I'm sure that in the Italian Campaign, your equipment file is the better choice. What path do I use to Insall it? Do I need to back up Panzer Corps as mentioned in some equipment mods? The only mod I've ever installed was your Polish Campaign which you showed me how to do. Therefore, I've never had to back up a game before and I don't know how to do that.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your help.

1.) Copy the entire folder of your PanzerCorps game "Panzer Corps" (situated in a steam folder or not ) to another location on your hard drive and rename it: for example "Panzer Corps Stormbringer".
2.) Extract the nikivdd equipment file and copy its content (the subfolders in the nikivdd equipment file folder) into the folder "Panzer Corps Stormbringer": You have to allow some files to be overwritten. Please always use the newest version i have provided. There should be a new version coming sometime this week.

Create a shortcut to the "panzercorps.exe" file from the "Panzer Corps Stormbringer" folder on your desktop and rename it to "Stormbringer". I used your nickname as an example, you can name it however you want.

There is also JGSME program but i am not familiar with it.

Thank you for your help.

I lose this map in Torbuk as I don't know which 8 main units should be led to the city circle, also I defeated all advancing enemies with their Matildas, infantry, ships and planes but I have a safe from the 10th move and I don't want to lose as it was in reality )))))

Hold the Tobruk perimeter objectives, move 8 ground core units inside the Tobruk perimeter

All sorted out I didn't need to raid otherwise I can't get the right number of troops in the inner defence belt of Torbuk )))) Although additional prestige is not superfluous in this company ))))

This time starting with my save on turn 12 I regained the lost position and was able to place 8 of my units in a circle ))))) Let's move on ))))







I won the battle with the British tanks and infantry, killing them all, but in my opinion it was a Pyrrhic victory in which only two of my cavalry units and aircraft survived )))) In the next one I have to retreat as well, I'm thinking of replaying so that my survivors would be more numerous ))))

Version 3 of Nikivdd's equipment file.

https://www.mediafire.com/file/vxsn6rmu ... 3.rar/file

New entries have been made and/or icons were replaced for Germany, France, Poland, USSR, USA Italy and Finland.
I also added some inactive entries for Poland, Belgium and The Netherlands until i find or receive the appropriate icon.

There will be more updates. I try to add a few every day when time allows. But Rome wasn't build in one day.

I am creating and expanding this equipment file for a reason. When i decide to create some more stuff in the future, we all know that the vanilla equipment file is seriously lacking in units for the minor countries. I have not forgotten the requests i received, all i ask is some patience.

Meanwhile i have arrived at scenario 12 of the upcoming "The Lost Spring - La Campagne de France" campaign.

It's not even a matter of whether I'm a fan of Semyon Budyonny or not, but the fact that cavalry is very convenient and versatile if used correctly ))) But in reality, if they were not thrown on tanks or to patch a hole in the defence at the fronts, they beat the enemy in raids savourably and boldly, even the Italian cavalry distinguished themselves, although in reality they can not be called the elite of the Second World War )))))

Тут даже дело не являюсь ли я фанатом Семена Буденного , а то что кавалерия очень удобна и универсальна ) Но и в реалии если их не бросали на танки или за латать дыру в обороне на фронтах били врагов они смачно и дерзко даже итальянская конница )))
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Бой_у_хутора_Избушенский








I replayed the mission and even finished it early because the British ran out of tanks, we can now retreat a little more )))) We'll see what happens next.)






I lost because I lacked literally a couple of moves to evacuate everyone, although I killed all the British who were advancing on me and managed to cut my column ))))) Now I'm thinking whether I should replay this mission with escape or leave it as I played it + in this case all my units are safe and sound and are in the next map without any problems )))))

[bondjamesbond]

Strange I place 10 ground units and I still get scored a defeat !!!! And there are tasks for normal victory to capture all important points, for decisive to deliver all their units to points A ) Or all need to return what the British captured but also evacuate our troops to the hexes marked with the letter A point ?








Let's leave this conundrum of who and where to leave ) Moving on ) The Italian eagles are doing very badly judging by the description ))))

@bondjamesbond
Вы разместили 10 «основных наземных частей» в зоне, отмеченной буквой A?
Did you place 10 "ground core units" in the area marked with an A?

Of course ) I even added moves to myself with the cheat by capturing back everything the British captured + placed 10 ground units in the A points but only a simple victory counts .....









Well all the company Eagles passed, in the last mission I destroyed all the advancing British and their allies ) In the description it is said about the real history in which in fact the British defeated the Italians on the head ) It turned out in my opinion twofold as receiving Decisive Victories for their actions in the end in the description to the missions to me did not predict anything good )))) Will there be an alternative branch for the Eagles in which hypothetically the alternative history went the other way as you did it in the third branch in the Polish Company !? )


A platoon of Soviet scout motorcyclists (presumably of the 2nd Separate Guards Motorcycle Regiment of the 30th Army
Kalinin Front) moving through rough terrain near Rzhev.
The first and fourth motorbikes are American-made Indian 741Bs. These are probably some of the first Indian 741Bs received by the USSR under lend-lease. The motorbike with sidecar is a trophy German Zundapp KS-750. Some of the scouts in camouflage summer suits ‘Amoeba’ of 1937.
