Panzer Corps 2 - v1.02.00 Update

[Tassadar]

Gameplay:
Added a new player trait:
"Old Guard". At the end of each mission all dead units are reformed with 1 point of strength and halved experience.

That's a neat idea. I'll have to think about how I might use it, but I like the variety it introduces.

I guess it won't be a trait anyone would pick standalone, but on higher difficulties with some specific challenges or self-imposed restrictions it can really do work. For example with Battle Academy it can allow to be really aggressive without worrying about long term consequences as much.

Added two new special challenges:
"Limited Stock". Units which are usually available for purchase in unlimited numbers, have a limited stock instead (increased at the beginning of every scenario).

Thank you so much! I love this. I'm hoping the amount of the increase will be moddable on a per-equipment basis, but even if not, this addition is huge for me. Thanks again.

If this is modable it could introduce a huge opportunity to mod historical production levels of many units - that itself has fascinating potential. The thing is, it will only really stand out with the Ruthless trait.

Yesss. And there could be higher and lower difficulty versions of the mod to simulate higher or lower levels of overall production or just player preference for more challenge.

Captured equipment can become so much more important!

Air transports can no longer disembark outside airfields if they have already spent their movement action this turn
Also, air transports now have "Vulnerable Target" trait, which means that they are attacked with higher accuracy and take more casualties than before

Sounds great for the player but the AI gets completely destroyed by this change. Students Paratroopers last less than 3 rounds in operation mercury thanks to this change.

the "limited stock" option does not allow access to organic transport of AA, arty or AT for purchase or improvement ?
i start new SCW with and cant acces this.... (with denied arti)

I feel you. I check every day hoping that at least an announcement is posted. I am not holding my breath for PC2 Pacific to be released any time before December and who knows how long it will be for AO43. I understand all the complications that have delayed it's release, but it is frustrating nonetheless.

Well, thursday is the "we announce dlcs and new games teatime day". Im not sure if PC2 related patches and fixes are released on thursdays only. I would assume the fix get live as soon as possible, no matter what day

But, next thursday the first after summer teatime will start (looking forward to it), maybe we get some informations there.

Flashback Games gives the update to Slitherline and Slitherline then releases it.
Slitherline has it's own process for releasing updates. Their process takes several days.
Releases are invariably Tuesday - Thursday. One Beta update was on a Friday, but that was an exception.

I have no idea what state the update is in, which of the two is holding things up.

Neither side is holdng things up. The blame there is with Covid. You will be updated when we have an update to give.

The development team was not vaccinated ? Strategic error...

[Bee1976]

Thaat sounds a little unempathic dude

Getting vaccinated or not can have 100 personal reasons and it is a personal decision. Its simply none of our bussiness.
I just hope all affected people get well soon and wish everyone a full and fast recovery. Oh and yes im vaccinated since month.

For me, it’s not a personal decision when the whole world is affected, it’s being selfish to say it’s a personal decision. Getting vaccinated is for the good of all.

There are many reasons someone may not want to be vaccinated its a medical decision and no one else's business.

a/ Just because vaccines are readily available in your country doesn't mean they are every where else.
b/ Vaccinated people can still get covid and still end up very ill. Its just less likely and usually less severe.
c/ Where did I mention anyone being unvaccinated?
d/ I tried to be helpful by informing you of the truth of the situation in the hope of some degree of understanding about why we aren't telling you anything. There's nothing to tell. When we know more, I or another team member will let you know.
