I have no problem putting overstrength on more than 3 units.

The only thing I can think of is that you are trying to overstrength a recon plane unit, which cannot be overstrengthed.

You must have ERP to overstrength Your units. If you then reduce the unit's overstrength level from, say, 12 to 10, you won't get your ERP back.

Exactly what issue are you having?

I haven't seen any issues reported. How cores are saved/named/imported hasn't changed.

This will unlock further options in 1939 and 1940 - mostly a handful of unique equipment to start the campaign. This feature has been dubbed the Core Initial Equipment Bonus (CIEB). For example if you choose the Luftwaffe core in the tutorial campaign, you will receive 50 Bf 109Es, 35 Ju87Rs, and 15 Ju88As to start 1939. You will still receive the same rewards as other cores throughout the campaign, but this is your bonus for choosing the Luftwaffe.

Infantry for example in 1939 receive 50 105mmleFH18m, 35 15cmsFH36, and 15 50mmPak38.

Panzer receives 50 SdKfz232-8Rad, 35 PanzerIID, and 15 PanzerIII/IV Ausf A (this is a new unit, a theoretical early production model of the standardized III/IV).
So, I'll get all these vehicles only in 1939, not in Spain?

Semi-correct. The initial bonus equipment for the Spanish Civil War is received from selecting either Luftwaffe, Infantry, or Panzer.

I am having a similar problem with upgrades limited to only 3 units...I did select Slow Modernization, but that is not supposed to be impacted by overstrength or transport upgrades.

somehow I managed to get it to work. I put the units in reserve then was able to overstrength. not an issue once the battle started.

Are all these campaigns reworked now? Will be any serious changes in the future?

I'm on my first play through and they are seriously reworked. SCW you can play 3 different ways with different Heros and Units that are carried over into 39 with another group of units gifted to start.

Thx, understood. Are there any guides where I can find full list of heroes?

It's a pity. :(

I'm planning to write AAR on non-English forum. And will be glad to receive any help. My plan is to conquer everything with the help of tanks or aircrafts. But I don't know which variant is the better. And don't have so much time to explore both variants.

It is.

You can always read the stats. If you want better tanks to start off, I'd go with the Panzer contingent you get with Before the Storm. If you want better aircraft, go Luftwaffe.

Moransky I'm playing with Luftwaffe. you get 2 fighter Heroes with Zero Slots plus Galland. you get fighter, Stuka and Bomber upgrades fairly early. I've found the Tanks adequate, u still get several Verdugas. In SCW and the 39, covering distance is an issue and the extended reach and visibility really helps especially against ships and isolated objectives. curious which Commanders/Heroes you get with Tank and Artillery. in the 40, you will encounter both Armor and Air upgrades from the enemy so that may be a wash? as far as Infantry Heroes and Equipment, I don't know? G-sport wanna fill us in?

I'm sure you get 2 Zero Slot Heroes with the others also. I'm sure you still get Galland, then Rudel, art., Recon, etc. in all 3. if you get 2 ZS's, in Artillery, them costing the most core slots, is something to think about.

Hello all,

I've updated the main post with a new download link for the latest version. It will be uploaded to Steam shortly.

Primarily focuses on fixes to 1940.
