Steenv - thanks for reporting.

Wacht Am Rhein up dated to 1.5.
Link updated in first post.
Fixed scenarios.

I'm a bit puzzled about the US forces all being idle in the last scenario.
I played it from the editor (without deploying any German units) and a number of US units traveled all the way to the exit in the SE map corner.

I bet you put a supply hex directly onto the exit hex, right? :wink:

Not in the updated scenario. May have done it earlier though.
I seem to remember that this will draw the AI units to the location, right?

Yes, guarding and occupying supply-hexes seems to be a priority for all AI units, even overriding move-to-hex orders (and such). On top of that, your exit hex is also a primary VP!

And I'd imagine it could be funny in this case, as each enemy tank occupying the hex will get removed and then the next one moves onto it and the next one... :D

Luckily, the US units are not removed when the reach the exit location :wink:

The version of the game is the last one. What can be wrong?

AK 1.5 started up immediately for me. Try downloading it again and make sure that the entire campaign folder is saved here:

The only other thing that I can think of is to make sure that you are patched up to version 6.1.9. It may be that Erik's German campaign is compatible with earlier versions of OOB but Afrika Korps is not because certain desert climate, terrain, and units were introduced in 6.1.9 for the official DLC Sandstorm. Erik's custom campaign uses much of these same desert climate, terrain, and units.

I have the same problem. I put the folder correctly into the campaign folder of the game. The version of the game is 6.1.9 in Win 10 64-bit.

And yet, 1.7 just started on my machine with no problem. My only difference from your setup, General K, is that I am still running Windows 8.1. Can either of you start Erik's Desert Rats?

I just tried the new Afrika Korps v1.7 and the problem remains. What's the problem with that?
I don't understand, because the other campaign i am playing now is Philippines 1941 and it works normally so far.

It is necessary to choose the good language. Only compatible in English :!:

Sorry guys, but even the new version doesn't start. I don't know about English or other language. The language is in English by default. Afrika Korps don't start.
The Desert Rats start normally.
What's the difference between the two campaigns? I don't understand. :(

Before launching Erik's campaigns, it is necessary to put the language on English.
If you put the language on a language other than English, it will block the game even the computer (I made the test).
