Uhu, thank you for your answer, and I kind of guessed it. What you say makes sense, it is an elite unit and having to work with infantry units with lower stats makes the campaign more interesting.
BTW I did not sell any of my infantry units, works well in the campaign so far. I saw that as an challenge which I placed on myself :D
Again thank you for all your work, your Royal Hungarian Army mod was also great and one of the most challenging mods that I've played.

I understand your pain, I also admire Folgore's battle capabilities.
But having parachute units with parachute possibilities would total off-balance the scenarios. On the other hand, having them as regular inf would be not useful, as they have lower defense stats.

That is not nice....I want to be able to use them in a more effective way. Auxiliary units aren't near as fun as core

Well, it's always interesting to see different solutions for the battles, with different core compositions. :)
I "grew up" on Rommel difficulty, probably therefore I'm an arty fan.

That's a great suprise, that there are people, who played my, not finished Hungarian mod! :) I always wanted to finish it, made also the most of the maps for it. But after starting to play BE, time was gone! :D So, it would be great to finish it, but I see relative low chances for that. We will see.

Finally finished with my double Rommel (25% prestige) campaign the First El-Alamein battle! I already finished it several weeks ago, but could not achive a DV. While here to make a DV is critical to ride the possible winner path and avoid the loosing/realistic path. On the other hand, the scenario is not really creative (not made by Nikivdd, or myself), so the main enemy here is time. So, I did not have the motivation for a time to play it again, but now I collected the needed energy and focus and now my troops are heading to Alexandria! :)

Another news: Goose_2 just started filming his IC campaign again on yt, now with V1.99 and Rommel diff, I advise to look it, very nice footage!

Hello,

just discovered this thread and downloaded the mod. After installing and starting the game i keep getting a ´CRC´ error. Downloaded the file and repeated the installation routine several times with no effect. Any advice?

I don't recall having this problem myself, but I have read about it and a possible solution. If you search the forum for CRC, you should find it. I believe it's in the " New Projekt: Phcas & AKRebels "PAK"-Mod" thread somewhere (unfortunately the longest thread on the forum probably!)

Hello and welcome to the Generale's club! :)

Sorry, I do not know the cause, luckily, I never encountered it.
What type of PzC version/installation do you have? Maybe the folder structure is different and files are not copied in the needed place? Just guessing.

Attentione: there is a minor bug left in the last version: the Semovente 75/18 units has with normal skin no double function, or better said, it cannot switched back. That effects the game only from the Caucaus, or Sicily scn, where you would also change from desert version. I will create a small patch, but it can be also left if you just do not change the desert skin and play it until you can upgrade it to Semovente 75/32 (34?), or Semovente 105/25, which do not have this issue.

Goose's youtube gameplay gave me new inspirations: is it possible to play without the usual setup of 105mm, motorized arty and buy some light mnt arty? Also not giving for a longer time the Alpini units trucks? So, more natural mnt movement could be exercised and with less prestige used?

On the other hand, with that less prestige spending, the campaign would have been easier for me so I set it to double Rommel (25% prestige) plus FM difficulty (50% experience). Of course it is extrem hard to play in that way, but I could somehow manage it until now - I'm at Alexandria right now.

So, I'm totally happy, that even after so many years of making, the campaign can give me new enjoyment and new challenges! :)

I think all versions of the game will work .

For the installation, after downloading the zip.file, just extract the files in a folder end open the 'install and readme.txt"file . All the instructions are in it.

You may want to follow this guide for PzC 1.32 mod preparations:

longer, alternative "PG" like Campaign new version 0.34 from 2011.08.02 (another bugfix & now in zip format)

Hello Luciocabrio,

Welcome Generale! :)
You can see all Italian units availability in the game, when you go into Library / IC 2.0 Units Availability.
I sadly do not know, how the Stream folder structure works. I have the Slitherine version. Here, while there is the Mod manager, I'm to lazy and just make another Panzercorps folder, copy all the original PzG file structure and than copy the IC 2.0 files on it with the same file structure.
There is also a readme file in the download package.

It is good to know, that this campaign is not a cakewalk: if you feel, you are a seasoned, veteran PzG player who is willing to reload scenarios for replays, you can try it with Rommel or Field Marshall difficulty. But if you are less experienced, or casual player, I would suggest the General difficulty.

I hope it helps, but just leave your questions if you have any. And also I would be glad to hear you experiences!
