The objectives are to hold the 6 objectives in the last turn (from north to south):
- Kirov
- Orel
- Kursk
- Prokhorovovka
- Belgorod
- Kharkov

Why Ponyri is not an objective
The Soviets, being under no illusions that an attack would be forthcoming, had previously fortified Ponyri and were determined to hold the village. Among the many fierce battles of Kursk that around Ponyri Station was one the fiercest, the fighting being likened by both sides to a “little Stalingrad”.

Kursk was a hell of a campaign and now that we don't have to rely on Manstein's honesty (never the greatest of assets in the first place) we can see the Nazis never really even came close to winning, with the mythical possible "breakthrough" Manstein and Guderain endlessly talked about having just meant they'd run up against the Soviet reserves and gotten beaten down possibly even more heavily than they were. Ponyri was probably the nail in the coffin that underlined it, as it meant one entire pincer got blunted and basically broken by stellar defensive tactics and hard figting.

I haven't played Kursk yet in this mod, but I look forward to doing so.

Restored vanilla PanzerCorps then tried PAK-Update v0.53, extracting all into MOD file. Then activated PAK. Restarted PanzerCorps but no noticeable difference from the vanilla version. Please advise as what I am doing wrongly. Thank you.

Its a great mod.

Obviously there are several mods here each of which requires a seperate mod file and folder structure.
The PAK-Update v0.53_Full consists of 4 files plus some 20 Readme Updates.
The Files are:- Optional, Options, PAK Mod MP Scenarios and Panzer Corps
The main mod is in Panzer Corps which already has the correct folder structure so this should be called PAC-MOD. Right?
Sorry but I do not know how to procede from there with the other mods. I would settle for just the Campaign Scenarios Big
