Storm Over Europe: Redux

[raider45]

Hello.

Great work you're doing here. Fantastic.

I just started a new game, but I've noticed that all the planned changes in the early campaign aren't available?

It plays exactly the same as before?

Greetings

[raider45]

Okay.
Sorry for the post above.
I found the error.
I'm curious to see how it goes.

It’s great that *1940 Part Two* is coming out soon.
Right now, I’m working my way through the Spanish Civil War.
I find the turn limit in the two new scenarios—Battle of Serge and Levante—to be very tight.
However, commanding the many auxiliary units is a lot of fun.
Does the "under construction" Luftwaffe token in the purchase menu have any significance?

Serge and Levante are deceptive scenarios as they really meant to be stalemate scenarios.

Do you mean in the Structures tab?

The structures tab is where I keep the Tokens at. So during the Before the Storm tutorial campaign where you chose your "core" you get Infantry, Panzer or Luftwaffe. At the start of each new campaign then you'll get special prototypes based off your "core token".

Greetings all,

The open beta for 1940 Part 2 has been released and is available on Discord.

[raider45]

Puh,
The Polish missions are quite challenging—as is the time limit—and are hardly manageable without (slight) adjustments.
In the initial missions, the "Elite" objective isn't entirely clear. Perhaps it could be explained more explicitly in the mission briefing?
I'm curious to see how things progress.
Good stuff, thanks.

Hi guys, wanting to ask what are some of your favorite hero combinations on units, for me its a specific 4 hero combination, for tanks its Envelopment-Overwhelming attack-Double Move and Double attack, since envelopment prevents retreat and overwhelming attack forces retreat its perfect for enemy infantry vehicles and so on it also allows you to capture alot of equipment, for fighters and bombers its double move and double attack along wit 2x damage.

I like tanks with Envelopment-Overwhelming-2xAttack too, but for the 4th perk choose double income from trophies. Together with the same General perk I have really tons of equipment and prestige.

Storm Over Europe: Redux is the spiritual successor to Storm Over Europe, originally developed by Ezequiel Romanko and Rick Kessler. Recently, it has been agreed upon that I will be taking over all updates of Storm Over Europe. I will continue updating this thread with updated screenshots and progress. Rick Kessler will continue providing support for ideas, scenarios, and images.

Redux offers updated features like Random Hero at the beginning of most scenarios, updated objectives, refined and expanded maps, along with new scenarios not originally found in Axis Operations and Storm Over Europe. A major change is that most friendly forces are controlled by the player. There is very limited AI control, except in missions which would alter the overall balance of the scenario.

Redux kicks off in the Spanish Civil War, which has a grand total of 31 scenarios overall; 25 of the missions are required to progress, with 6 optional missions. Most optional missions have been updated and designed to offer a different rewards and playstyle than before.

The second campaign will feature the Invasion of Poland, along with several reworked and new scenarios offering new challenges and better player control. 1939 Redux/Rework is currently in further development and is almost done. It will be released to alpha testers shortly afterwards.

The third campaign, 1940 Part 1, will feature heavily redone scenarios and updated path branches. Currently, 1940 part
1 has preferred branches with better rewards and heroes. This will be corrected in 1940 part 1 Redux/Rework.

1940 Part 1 will feature a full Battle of France campaign, concluding with the Italian offensives. 1940 Part 2 will be the Battle of Britain, which will offer a mix of air-only missions and probing attacks at the British coastal facilities. If all goes well, the full-scale invasion of the British Home Islands, Operation Sea Lion, will commence. If not, there is an option to attempt to bring Nationalist Spain into the Axis fold.

Currently, Redux only features Condor Legion campaign, 1939, and 1940 Part 1. 1940 Part 2 is currently under active development.

An updated Asturias Offensive.


Battle of the Serge, a new scenario.


An updated Battle of the Ebro.


Levante (XYZ) Offensive, a new scenario.


Battle of Valsequillo, a new scenario.


Danzig Bay, a new scenario for 1939 created before the Fall of Poland DLC.


Sarreguemines, a new scenario for 1939.


An updated Modlin map for 1939. This scenario will be a lot more rewarding and challenging than before.

so, Is Wings Over Britain playable now?

The file title is confusing because “Part 2” implies there should be a “Part 1”, but there isn’t one, if I understood correctly ?
