This may have been covered elsewhere, but I would like to know if their is ever a time when you can actually purchase non German equipment. I've played the DLC from 39 to the beginning of 41 and have always been told that their are no slots available whenever I've tried to purchase any other countries stuff (Bulgarian, Slovak, Italian, Romainian etc.)? I must be doing something wrong because why would their be equipment listed in the purchase section if every time I've got the prestige it keeps saying --not enough slots--? It says that I've got three "core" slots available. Do I have to have a main or objective city with the flag of the Axis ally for the opportunity to purchase extra equipment? Help me out here.....

Sadly, you can not do it without modding the game and that has its limitations too from what I`ve read. The ability to buy non-german units in what is basically an axis campaign is one of my biggest wishes for a future implementation. I hope it makes it eventually.

If it takes modding the game to be able to purchase German allied units, what exactly is involved in modding these days? Do you actually have to go in and type code, or is there just a small file you need to download? The Lordz must know that although some of us have been around computers since the commodore 64 days that doesn't mean we can write code as easy as open a can of pop.

I'm not willing to tinker with my Ducati's fuel injection system and I'm not gonna go into a program and start adding 0's or 1's here and there cuz I'm no code monkey.

Lets hope the Lordz see the light and at least allow us to spend our prestige in the free market of the Axis Alliance in Panzer Corps.

If the German mod community's Africa war theatre Mod is good I'm not sure if the Lordz will want to compete with these guys. I looked this Mod at their site and it looks like they offer thirty two different engagements with a extensive amount of equipment. I personally would still prefer a campaign from the Lordz. But if they pass on the desert war I guess we have little choice.


Has anyone tried this German Mod of the war in Africa? What's your judgement?

Patience is a virtue, but outside PzC we have another 4 games in production at the moment, besides PzC got a lot of support, patching, DLC`s and localization attention. So we have been working hard, just in silence behind the screens as usual. PzC is a game series in our mind not a single game, I hope the DLC`s have proven that already. Enjoy them for now as much as possible, we will be back with new content for Panzer Corps!

We are working on new expansions, official announcements will be made in the coming weeks... we are just dead busy working on a lot of fun games and time is our biggest enemy. :-)

Cheers,

This thread, in summary:
"Quit Stalin and get to the point."
It's a double pun, 'stalling' as been replaced with 'Stalin' and some people are also saying there's too much East Front Content so we should 'Quit Stalin'.
Haha! :lol:

...

I'll show myself out of this thread now. :oops: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow:

Why don't you try? I've liked it.
That doesn't mean I'm not expecting for an official one. It will be different for sure, and hopefully will add more to the game. It will have the usual uber Lordz quality.
