I've finally got to where this mod says 1.2. However, the unit purchase screen is empty. Needless to say, I've done something wrong. Please help. I've used the download without your e-file.
Thanks.

Unzip the equipment file in documents\mygames\panzer corps\mods\for your freedom and ours\data\ folder.
Start a new game (not restart mission).

I began playtesting leg 3 of the Polish Campaign.
I am not very familiar with replays, i don't know if the gamefiles are needed to be able to watch. So i'll post two replays and perhaps someone will tell me if the replay can be viewed or not.

I've tried to install the link you posted to help me many times, and it says I've already had that file and it won't override. The file I have says a date of 5Aug25. I had a hard time getting 1.2 to install. When I start the Campaign, it does say 1.2. However, is it possible that it didn't install properly?
Another topic, I found the Italian Campaign you made and when I tried to download it, I got a site that wanted to help me upload things. Is that Campaign still available?
Thanks.

Hello, I can't watch the replays with either Pak-mod or the original Panzercorps.

1. Delete the mod from the mods folder -> documents\mygames\panzer corps\mods\
2. Unzip de mod in the mods folder -> documents\mygames\panzer corps\mods\
3. Unzip the vanilla.rar file in -> documents\mygames\panzer corps\mods\for your freedom and ours\data\
The vanilla.rar file is on the top of this page.
To be clear, those files do not go into the folder where panzer corps has been installed on your device.

@Tobi72: thanks man, now i know for sure

Salut, Nico!
I do appreciate your work so the following is NOT a criticism:
- does a Mission-0 really required? Because its tough to buy units "blindly" without knowing the next map's nuances. Starting cores are looking reasonable and in Soviet Campaign '37 I simply played with a given one (and in previous version of Polish Campaign it was fine too);
- Return to Zaolzie is about re-capturing towns from Slovakia, so why the opponent is Blue Team? Or its simply a fictional training mission?

That kind of uncomfortable truth

You are making a point, i will present future updates with a preset core and a purchase core.
The second point is there is no cz flag in the vanilla version of the game, so i opted for the blue team flag.

Giugno 1940. L’Italia entra in guerra al fianco della Germania, e lo sguardo di Mussolini si volge verso i deserti del Nord Africa. Dalla Libia, il Regio Esercito affronta la roccaforte britannica in Egitto, difesa da truppe del Commonwealth provenienti da ogni angolo del mondo. Il compito è arduo: equipaggiamento limitato, un terreno ostile e un nemico determinato e ingegnoso. Eppure, la promessa di gloria e di impero spinge i soldati italiani nelle sabbie. Questa campagna seguirà il primo anno di guerra nel deserto — dalle pattuglie di confine alle battaglie decisive dell’Operazione Compass.
.
June 1940. Italy enters the war at Germany’s side, and Mussolini’s gaze turns to the deserts of North Africa. From Libya, the Regio Esercito faces the British Empire’s stronghold in Egypt, guarded by Commonwealth troops from every corner of the world. The task is daunting: limited equipment, harsh terrain, and an enemy both determined and resourceful. Yet the promise of glory and empire drives Italian soldiers into the sands. This campaign will follow the first year of fighting in the desert — from the initial patrols along the frontier to the crushing battles of Operation Compass.
.
Juni 1940. Italien tritt an der Seite Deutschlands in den Krieg ein, und Mussolinis Blick richtet sich auf die Wüsten Nordafrikas. Von Libyen aus steht das Regio Esercito der britischen Festung in Ägypten gegenüber, die von Commonwealth-Truppen aus allen Teilen der Welt verteidigt wird. Die Aufgabe ist gewaltig: begrenzte Ausrüstung, unwirtliches Gelände und ein Gegner, entschlossen und einfallsreich. Doch das Versprechen von Ruhm und Imperium treibt die italienischen Soldaten in den Sand. Diese Kampagne schildert das erste Jahr des Wüstenkrieges — von den ersten Grenzpatrouillen bis zu den vernichtenden Schlachten der Operation „Compass“.
.
Июнь 1940 года. Италия вступает в войну на стороне Германии, и взгляд Муссолини обращается к пустыням Северной Африки. Из Ливии Королевская армия Италии сталкивается с британской крепостью в Египте, которую защищают войска Содружества со всех уголков мира. Задача трудна: ограниченное вооружение, суровая местность и противник, решительный и находчивый. Но обещание славы и империи ведёт итальянских солдат в пески. Эта кампания охватывает первый год сражений в пустыне — от первых пограничных патрулей до сокрушительных боёв операции «Компас».

Excellent campaigns, thx!
About your GFX-addon: there are doubles of Pz-IIID and Obice 210mm inside; also 75mm italian guns are wrong, I mean the pictures don't match real named models.
And I have alternate icons to propose:

The purchase core version and use the equipment file for the pak mod which i posted some time ago. I hope it works.

@Vintage: thanks alot for the icons!

I really don't know much about mods. In fact, the only one I've ever done was yours which you helped me with. I just want to use the vanilla units. I'd like to do the purchase core, so do I download the one that says that option and that will take care of everything including the necessary equipment files?
Thanks.

.
Development update:

All 15 scenarios have been created and i am in the process of testing.
I expect to deliver sometime this week still.
.
Similar to the Polish campaign, Eagles in the Sand will be released with a preset core and a purchase core.
The theatre of war for this campaign is as you guessed, North Africa. The campaign's timespan is from Italy's declaration of war until just before the arrival of the Afrika Korps. Briefings and debriefings, including some historical background will be available in English, French, German and Russian. And the core army will be saved after the last scenario.
