Just a question: are icons to be replaced just because they are vanilla ones ? Some German tanks are still using vanilla icons and this is not a problem for me. Soviet ISU 152 is a modified icon, honnestly I preferred the vanilla one. In previous versions of the mod the T34 was a non vanilla icon and it was pretty ugly, I did not even recognize it was a T-34. Hopefully another icon (also a non vanilla one) was used and now this is OK.

Anyway it is just a matter of taste. Anyone is entitled to have his own opinion.

Now my feedback about the mod:

The mod is fantastic, its added-value for me is the e-file (diversity and number of units + use of new icons + extra info about Division the unit belongs to & unit type), I am not a fan a big maps (my time is limited so only one scenario with a small map during an evening is perfect for me).
I usually play DLCs with the Mod. I did the whole campaign from 1939 to 1945 and now I am replaying it. I really love this e-file!

Choice of icons for Air force is absolutely fantastic. I also like the use of a bomber in recon category.
I admit that use of multiple messages during scenarios of big size maps brings of lot of game immersion.

I am still busy at Kursk, but I am lacking of courage when I see the nr of units I have to move. So I came back to small maps.
However I must admit that when a player has time to play such a big map scenario, this is very enjoyable (despite the need to move so many units).
Poland, Battle of France, Battle of Britain and Greece were my preferred big maps scenarios so far.

I also understand the choice of campaign designers, England cannot be conquered (this must remain a historical campaign). But in small scenarios you can!
Maybe having the possibility to conquer UK and USA, maybe a scenario opposing Western Allies and USSR on a big map in a whole Europe map could be fun too.

I have not tried yet the used of milk cows (refuelling submarines).

I hope the standard small size scenarios of the original campaign are still under rework, it would be great to use them too.
I guess the team will be busy with the Japanese campaign too.

Do you intend to do big maps for Afrika Korps, Allied and Soviet campaign ?
If you do so, you will have a lifelong job...

In conclusion, I can only congratulate the team for his outstanding work.

I prefer Pz Korps 1 to Pz Korps 2. Your mod reinforces my standpoint.

I hope your e-file is usable in other customized campaigns like "Legacy of Versailles" for instance. I tried and it seems to work so far since you created units before 1939.

So keep up the good work and above all THANK YOU for your accomplishments!

better ?

Yes.
Sehr viel better

After the captured American bazookas fell into the hands of Japanese designers, work began in Japan to create its own rocket-propelled anti-tank grenade launchers. In July 1944, a 74-mm grenade launcher was adopted, which received the designation Type 4.

You can also throw them a bazooka ) Although in my opinion there is already the main thing to live until 1944 )))

Hello everybody,

Due to the large scenarios and distances in them and the small difference in value between land and air units, the question is whether it would make sense for gameplay to give ALL aircraft a +5 movement range.

What do we think about that?

No because you would ruin standard game using small maps.
or
Yes because it could be fun if ALL aircrafts benefit from the same extension, if coherency prevails, then why not...

Hello everybody,

Due to the large scenarios and distances in them and the small difference in value between land and air units, the question is whether it would make sense for gameplay to give ALL aircraft a +5 movement range.

What do we think about that?

A large fuel reserve allowed the pilot to be more calm in a combat flight in relation to an emergency landing due to a lack of fuel, but the increased volume of gas tanks made the defeat of the aircraft more likely.

The experience of air battles showed that the Yak-9D up to an altitude of 3500 m had an advantage over the Me-109G-2 and FW-190A-8 on turns, and when using up about half of the fuel reserve, and on a vertical maneuver.

On August 30, 1943, the Yak-9D was seriously damaged in one of the air battles with the FW-190A-8: the left root gas tank was pierced by a shell, the crankcase of the engine gearbox was pierced, the fuselage had several bullet holes. Despite the damage to the aircraft and the engine, the pilot brought the plane to his airfield and made a safe landing, which indicates the high survivability of the Yak-9D.

A small number of Yak-9ds were transferred to the Bulgarian Air Force at the end of 1944. The most outstanding Bulgarian pilot who flew Yak fighters was 3. Zakhariev, who received the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

.The Yak-9DD fully justified itself as a long-range fighter when a group of 12 aircraft of this type in August 1944, under the command of Major I. I. Ovcharenko, made a non-stop flight from Balti to Bari (Italy) with a length of 1300 km without suspended gas tanks to assist the People's Liberation Army of Yugoslavia. The leader was the Boston bomber, led by an experienced test pilot of the Air Force Research Institute M. A. Nyukhtikov. This flight and the subsequent work on escorting C-47 transport aircraft to the territory of Yugoslavia liberated by the partisans demonstrated the high operational and flight qualities of the Yak-9DD. During the entire period of stay in Vari, not a single case of breakdown or failure of the aircraft was noted, although in each combat mission (and there were 155 of them) it was necessary to cross the Adriatic Sea twice, passing over the water surface from 400 to 600 km, and land on sites of limited size located among high mountains with strong side and even tailwind. Yak-9DD at altitudes up to 3000...4000 m in speed and maneuver surpassed all the British and American fighters based at Bari airfield-Tempest I, Spitfire IX, P-63C-1 Kingcobra, P-40 Kittyhawk, P-47 Thunderbolt, etc., which was tested practically in training air battles. Almost all American and British fighters were high-altitude and at 3000...4000 m did not shine with their qualities.

British and American pilots spoke with admiration about the skill of Soviet pilots and the high qualities of the Yak-9DD. In 1944, the Yak-9DD was successfully used to escort B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator bombers that made shuttle flights to targets in Romania without landing from Poltava (Ukraine) to Bari (Italy).

Hi like that idea a lot. In Modern Conflicts mod changed the jet fighters range to 8 and my opinion gives the mods much more player options for the battles.
