Hi everyone,
Just a question: are icons to be replaced just because they are vanilla ones ? Some German tanks are still using vanilla icons and this is not a problem for me. Soviet ISU 152 is a modified icon, honnestly I preferred the vanilla one. In previous versions of the mod the T34 was a non vanilla icon and it was pretty ugly, I did not even recognize it was a T-34. Hopefully another icon (also a non vanilla one) was used and now this is OK.
Anyway it is just a matter of taste. Anyone is entitled to have his own opinion.
Now my feedback about the mod:
The mod is fantastic, its added-value for me is the e-file (diversity and number of units + use of new icons + extra info about Division the unit belongs to & unit type), I am not a fan a big maps (my time is limited so only one scenario with a small map during an evening is perfect for me).
I usually play DLCs with the Mod. I did the whole campaign from 1939 to 1945 and now I am replaying it. I really love this e-file!
Choice of icons for Air force is absolutely fantastic. I also like the use of a bomber in recon category.
I admit that use of multiple messages during scenarios of big size maps brings of lot of game immersion.
I am still busy at Kursk, but I am lacking of courage when I see the nr of units I have to move. So I came back to small maps.
However I must admit that when a player has time to play such a big map scenario, this is very enjoyable (despite the need to move so many units).
Poland, Battle of France, Battle of Britain and Greece were my preferred big maps scenarios so far.
I also understand the choice of campaign designers, England cannot be conquered (this must remain a historical campaign). But in small scenarios you can!
Maybe having the possibility to conquer UK and USA, maybe a scenario opposing Western Allies and USSR on a big map in a whole Europe map could be fun too.
I have not tried yet the used of milk cows (refuelling submarines).
I hope the standard small size scenarios of the original campaign are still under rework, it would be great to use them too.
I guess the team will be busy with the Japanese campaign too.
Do you intend to do big maps for Afrika Korps, Allied and Soviet campaign ?
If you do so, you will have a lifelong job...
In conclusion, I can only congratulate the team for his outstanding work.
I prefer Pz Korps 1 to Pz Korps 2. Your mod reinforces my standpoint.
I hope your e-file is usable in other customized campaigns like "Legacy of Versailles" for instance. I tried and it seems to work so far since you created units before 1939.
So keep up the good work and above all THANK YOU for your accomplishments!
