Afrika Korps Special Heroes

[Vorskl]

Guys,
are there SH in the AK campaign? If so, could you please share the list?

There are quite a few units that can be acquired in game - some for capturing cities and a few for destroying hangars. These should be covered in the various captured units threads in the Stickies section.

In Second Offensive, if you capture El Agheila soon enough you get a batch of reinforcements. If you are in time these will include three Italian units with special heroes that you get to keep. There are two Self Propelled artillery units, one with +1 move and one with +5 attack, and a tactical bomber with +3 attack.

I learnt the hard way that you can get only some of the reinforcements (not including the special hero units) if you are a turn or two late - and nothing at all if you are even later.

There are also some special units awarded for a single scenario.
