Greetings from AKRebel
It would be useful to add this kind of file(Changelog, Version History, whatsnew...) in future updates :idea:
It does not require much work and gives a more professional touch :wink:
I have all the updates from the beginning but I don’t remember the changes :(

The scale of the big scenarios is perfect. It is absolutely brilliant to see an entire army laid out in their operational zone yet there is still enough room for maneuver (depending on terrain of course). It is a wonderful education on the composition of these historical armies, along with getting a glimpse into what the historical leadership was thinking, while creating the opportunity for decisions to be made in how you approach your objectives (will you flank them by making a wide arc, etc.). At times in the past, when the scales for the scenarios seemed unsuitable, the units became really congested and the only choice was to plow straight ahead (still required strategy but there were not many decisions to make).

I just saw the movie for the surrender of Warsaw. The quote that accompanied it said something to the effect of “...the defenders fought bravely”. What a Vast amount of Dignity and Respect in that statement. You guys are legends. Everything about this mod is honorable. It is like a digital shrine to the people who came before us, regardless of politics, who had to go through this period of history. Even the video of Hitler flying over Warsaw was rare and haunting. It did not look like a propaganda piece and I do not know how to describe his expression (not happy, was he thinking about France and Britain?). And SO MUCH destruction beneath him. To think a lot of the continent would come to look like that within the next 5 years.

This Mod really is something to learn from.

Various units revised.....does this mean I need to restart a new campaign? I will use cheat codes to move past Poland and set up the kills, exp., back to what they should be. I noticed every update comes with a equip file.

Also, I don’t seem to have images for most of my fighters and my first hero. Is this something being worked on or should they be there and I corrupted something on my end.

Thank you

I have a question, does any of you have access to a detailed map, a list of units used in the 1939-40 Winter War? I mean Finnish units.
I already have Soviet armies, from 7 near Leningrad to 15 near Murmansk.
There is no Order de battle on the wiki :(

I am now working on a new scenario and such data is necessary to accurately reproduce this episode.

In 1942, he had to get dirty in the trial of the participants of Operation Pastorius. In June 1942, Admiral Canaris sent eight saboteurs to the United States with the task of carrying out a number of sabotages at American enterprises and power plants.

The name, by the way, is quite pretentious and meaningful. Franz Pastorius was the name of the head of the first colony of Germany in America. In the seventeenth century. Canaris reported with this operation that "we have returned to American soil."

to 1.) We always adjust individual units visually or revise individual values according to historical specifications.

to 2.) Here we need more detailed information, for which fighters are no pictures available?

This PAK mod is installed on a separate Panzer Corps install. There is no GME, I just merge the updates with the older folders/files. The pictures do not come up with my save game or a new game. The png.s are in the graphics folders and properly named in the equipment file. It is odd but not a problem. I was just curious.

I used GME on my primary installation and the results are exactly the same.

If the photos are still missing after that, it would be helpful to use scene shots for further analysis, in which the problem becomes more visible.

It has to be something on my end (I am playing on Ubuntu 20.04 with WINE so I am just grateful I can play this amazing mod, everything is secondary to the history and strategy contained within it). No worries and I thank you for looking into it, for your response, and for your hard work in creating this amazing mod.

Finally finished both Kursk and Operation Bagration. Kursk was very polished and had a great attention to detail. The Soviet AI was competent in its defense and eventual counter-attack with the exception of leavening several lines of trenches vacant. Germany in this scenario has a big upper hand though. The Soviets have no reliable way of countering German tanks with the exception of the Panzer III (probably because of the exp difference and the number of Panthers and Tigers present). German anti-tank guns having the ability to attack without being counter-attacked is also very broken. The Fw-190 can one shot any Soviet aircraft and can negate Soviet air superiority early on. The Luftwaffe at this point shared air parody with the Red Airforce so is it possible to reflect that by giving an exp penalty or disabling elite reinforcements from 1943 and onward? Bagration was a very fun and challenging scenario against overwhelming odds. At this point of the campaign though I had too much prestige to burn to the point that I could theoretically afford a tank force comprising of only Tiger II’s and still reinforce all understrength German units. Mabey have it so you can’t reinforce the understrength auxiliary forces and tone down the amount of prestige gained by capturing objectives. The Soviet AI seems to struggle a lot in this scenario. The AI simply doesn’t know how to use HQ units and bridge engineers. Because of this they send them in mass suicide charges as they are the first ones to be moved. Without a way to cross the river they get bottlenecked and their advantage in numbers gets negated as you grind them one by one. Besides this the scenarios works perfectly fine and Bagration is probably my favorite from the entire campaign. Thank you for the amazing work and have a good one!
