How to create a custom campaign?

[Ezequiel1996]

hi guys i've been working on some scenarios and i want to put them together in a campaign enviroment, how im supposed to do that?

[Kerensky]

Outside of the all important scenario files themselves, it's really not that complex. As always, the best way to learn is by existing examples: looking at a DLC campaign.

In short, need 3 things.

1. campaign.json
2. script.lua
3. Put them and scenario folders into this directory

C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\My Games\Panzer Corps 2\Campaigns

json and lua file are very simple files you can edit with notepad or notepad++

thank you guys, im gonna check it now, do i need to create a script for having the same core for every scenario of the campaing? or is already done in the game? im a bit confused about that.

No, you need to have deployment hexes though
