Hello Niko, a question. Which option do you choose for the number of figures, for example infantry per hex? Do you place one figure, as shown in the picture, or the classic three as in Panzercorps? So infantry, cavalry, etc.?

Development update.

The introductionary campaign is ready for testing, so expect a first release soon.
Things will still be very basic, i did quite a lot in a short time span but there is never enough of it.
The introductionary campaign lets us play the Human Faction and the adversaries will be the sparring team (including Fantasy General's Corporal) and the Undead Faction. Later i am considering a campaign against the Undead, and afterwards the introduction of a new Faction, the Da Vinci faction.

.
The equipment file is a challenge, especially which unit to assign to which class.
For example, i decided to place spearmen under class 3 (anti-tank), and will be most effective against class 1 (tank). Cavalry is placed under that class 1. Almost everything that has more than two legs or wheels or threads...has not been placed under class 0.

I hope slowly, if i manage, to transform some parts of the UI to FC environment.

The introduction mini-campaign is now available. The rar file unzips in two folder: the GME folder for use with GME (or to be copy/pasted into a copy of the panzer corps installation) and the campaign folder that goes into the mods folder.
.

.
In the first two scenarios you cannot buy units. Once you can, you will notice that archers are in artillery, spearmen in anti-tank. The UI still needs work, but i already moved a couple of mountains to be able to present something in such a short time.

I'm certainly not a fan of fairy tales, but I'll give it a try, as I'm interested in the mechanics themselves. :lol: :wink:

It's cool and unusual. And you have to get used to it. It also flies out if you use an invisible cart. (Thanks for the Russian version!)

If you don't buy the invisible carriage, you can easily get to the end ))

@Bond. Thanks for your report. It is very helpful.

I quickly updated this beta, includes latest equipment file - the invisible cart should be fixed and a proper display of the flags of the Human, Sparring and Undead factions which i actually forgot to include.

I found out while browsing the unit lists in the manual of Fantasy General that there are over a hundred units :shock:
I already did a few.

For most "Human" units there will be 10 levels or ranks. The introduction mini-campaign only shows you levels 0-2 for a few different types of units.
The mini-campaign will not be expanded with any additional scenarios but your tiny army is saved at the end.

The introduction mini-campaign has been expanded to five scenarios. This should be the final version.
https://www.mediafire.com/file/93b18yr8 ... 2.rar/file
There are also a few (small) modifications to the UI.
The fifth scenario also enables a couple of new units like the Shield Bearer and the Skirmisher.
And a big wave to a new faction.

I forgot to add the sprite in the package, that's why it is not visible.

Or copy/paste into the graphics/units folder of the GME part.
