PzC Series - Campagna d'Abissinia - Avanti per la Vittoria (24-28/06/26)

[nikivdd]

Development update

With *Campagna d’Abissinia* and *Avanti per la Vittoria* now released, my focus has shifted to the third part of the series: *Eagles in the Sand*, the 1940–1941 campaign originally released last year.

This campaign will allow you to import your core army from *Avanti per la Vittoria*. Alternatively, players may begin the campaign with a preset army.

Most scenarios will also receive minor adjustments and refinements.

And so I continue to take part, with my Italian legion, in the bloody Spanish Civil War! It’s a tough game, but really interesting!!! As usual, you can see more details in the screenshots and the replay!

Finished Guadalajara. Nice, though I expected a little more from the inevitable counterattack with the T-26s. Resources are actually plentiful, and the reinforcements are just a bit of a luxury. As long as you are careful with your artillery support and gang up on the Republican planes not named I-16 (these are untouchable) you'll be fine. The weather shifted perfectly from mud to clear just as I was in range of the counterattack. Had I been less prepared, that would have got me in the open, so nicely (or luckily?) done. I won on turn 21, so time limit is not an issue.

If there is a tweak to be done to make it more challenging at Normal/Normal it would be to beef up the front lines of the Republican with another gun or two. But it's not like they're badly resourced either - a careful human who doesn't outmarch his artillery should be fine at all times. Perhaps there are too many Nationalist bombers, you could cut one biplane to make them more even with the Republican (pre-I-16 and Ant-bomber reinforecment). But all these are minor, the scenario is good.
