Panzer Corps + Afrika Korps + GC Mega Pack - Installation?

[Friedrich1250]

Hello, I want to install Panzer Corps, Panzer Corps: Afrika Korps and the Grand Campaign Mega Pack.

My questions:

1) How do I install these games in the correct order?
A. Panzer Corps, GC Mega Pack, Afrika Korps or
B. Panzer Corps, Afrika Korps, GC Mega Pack?
And do I still have to install the 1.14 patch?

2) Do I have to install the 1.14 patch, if I only install Afrika Korps and the GC Mega Pack? If so, should I install the patch before or after installing the GC Mega Pack?

Thanks for your help!

You need to either install PzC or AK first as the mega pack requires the base game. After this the order does not matter. The installers automatically apply the latest patch if you don't already have it or a more recent version. The mega pack comes with the latest patch so no additional patches are required.

I know AK integrates as an expansion into PC if it was installed before. If not it installs as standalone. I am not sure if PC integrates into AK if it detects it. So maybe to be on the safe side i would install in following order: PC -> AK -> GC Mega pack.

@ IainMcNeil and Tarrak:

Thanks a lot for your fast and helpful replies!

So you select the "Classified" folder on right-hand side of main game menu to launch? I can see the individual GC by year, East or West.

Wondering if you select the Grand Campaign for Mega Pack, does the GC give options on whether or not you want to play in East or West?

There isn't any extra option. The Megapack is the 10 campaigns that you see individually in the Classified folder.

What about the Grand Campaign in MegaPack though? Does that automatically cover all 10 of the campaigns/DLC's or does it give you option on which front (East or West) you want to play?
I'm still in Poland, so can't tell yet how the GC is set-up.

The only difference between Megapack and the 10 DLC's+Patch 1.14 is that there is only one file installer. It's just a question of convenience.

If I install Afrika Korps + GC mega pack, but not Panzer Corps, what will I be missing?

The main campaign ? Well not THAT much, since the mega pack is mostly a larger version of the main campaign.

Only difference: No "Fantasy Scenarios" like Invasion of GB and USA.
