Oh 4 Fighters should be plenty
I played the suez canal. Twice. Will restart it once more. I could have grabbed a dv on second time but i was really pissed off by the suez canal crossing. I thought a bridge engineer was needed. Had 2 artillery next to it that got attacked across the canal and got destroyed. I didnt see that one coming.
On first try i had 4/5 may be six tanks that appeared out of nowhere in the desert behind my troops. My sahariana didnt spot them. How can it be... so i restarted, surrendered to check the map and saw nothinh. Thats units poping up...
Another thing surprised me. One objective is to sink all navy ships, which i did, even the one in the red sea. But got no award whatsoever.
I highly recommend watching my playthrough of the Suez canal that is on my channel. The first 2 or 3 days are absolute perfection. Quite proud of the start I had on that one

Why do you think so many do not complete the GC but give up around 44 and 45?
I am pretty sure some also realize they got their force composition slightly wrong when they see all the SU tanks (e.g. when playing first time)...

I watched it. Have to say that using the italian fighter as a bait, i did copy that (even though in the previous game i lost my se109 this way, the aa ignored the italian fighter and shot the messerschmidt which i lost

), but you got very lucky, the spitifire and the first aa killed it, then the second AA took 6 str out of my stuka...

so i did it my way, a bit slower but i had a much better finish than you did

Hello!
I am playing GC East on Rommel...
On Seelow Heights i take the general to sector C on turn 14 but cannot trigger Decisive Victory.
Anyone has had a trigger problem on this scenario? I have tried both C escapes zones so far and only get a Marginal Victory.
I have installed PAK MOD, maybe this is the problem?
Regards,
David
