Ohne alle 194 Seiten durchforsten zu müssen: wie viele Karten sind das stand jetzt, und sind da noch ergänzungen geplant?
Die Grafik ist übrigens der Hammer, schön zu sehen, dass es solche enthusiasten gibt.
Hallo und herzlich willkommen,

in der Kampagne sind es 13 große Karten in der Zeit 1939 bis 1945 + zwei große Scenarios als Einzelkarten.
Wir arbeiten seit über zwei Jahren an den Mod und verbesseren regelmäßig mit weiteren Updates.

Viel Spaß und beste Grüße
Was war eigentlich der Ausschlaggebende Faktor, dass Ihr gesagt habt: Ok ab 41 machen wir nur noch die Ostfront und nicht nur den Westen oder beide?
Hat euch der Westen einfach nicht so Interessiert oder wars euch zu viel arbeit für beides, oder war die Westfront zu schwierig zum abbilden?

What was actually the decisive factor that you said: Ok, from 41 we will only do the Eastern Front and not just the West or both?
Did the West just not interest you that much, or was it too much work for you to do both, or was the Western Front too difficult to depict?
Hello from Thuringia,

there was no reason, it takes a long time to develop.
Maybe we will address this again at a later point in time.
Please also write your inquiries in English so that other users can also contact you on the topic. thank you

Have you thought of adding the Spanish Civil War as a small starting/training scenario? :)

Tack igen för detta superba arbete!
Har jobbat i månader med 3 nya stora scenarios Normandie, Market-Garden och Karelska Näset till det underbara PAK mod, tack så mycket för det! :)
Önskar God Jul och Gott Nytt År!

Ps varken engelska eller tyska är mitt modersmål heller och därför har jag börjat tröttnat lite på att försöka göra nåt efter diskussionen om modersmål.....

Hälsningar Mats

Hi,

AK Rebel wrote:
We are currently developing a map of Europe which, in addition to the existing campaign, will show as many operations as possible in the period from 1939 to 1945 on one map.
The new map "Europe at War" will be published for the first time in the upcoming update.
The map has a size of (width: 306 hex * height: 350 hex) and can be selected via the "Scenario" tab in the mission selection (scroll all the way down) under "External Scenario Maps". -> See screenshots.
We are still in the BETA phase on this card, which was developed by ajs81 and AKRebel.
We ask for constructive feedback on the landscape, game balance or other abnormalities as well as suggestions for improvement.
We will try to consider and implement as many requests or suggestions as possible.
Please continue to be patient with the further development of the mod and the map that is now also made available.
I finished the invasion of Poland.

1. Can I chose NOT to attack USSR ? Maybe I would like to invade only UK.
2. In the future releases could you add saved games allowing the player to start at specific events like France 1940, Barbarossa 1941, Stalingrad 1942, Kursk 1943, Berlin 1945 (like Mc Guba did in his mod) ?
3. Will the player be allowed to play on the Allied / USSR side ?

The invasion of Poland was a nice campaign start (using the Soviet troops is nice too).
I was astonished by the high nr of British bombers in German sky in 1940 (attacking the ships & submarines was normal but ground units in cities in 1940 with such a scale, was strange because not reflecting history).
It took a lot of time after I played to let AI play --> I play this scenario while watching TV since pauses are so long (AI processing time).
But besides this, it was a good gameplay experience.

Hi RobertCL,

Ad1. The scenario is linear, it reflects what was, that is, each major operation starts at a certain time. The attack on Poland will take place on September 1, 39, and the attack on Norway and Denmark on April 9, 40.

Ad2. We didn't think about cutting the script to 40 \ 41 \ 42 (I don't even know how to do it anyway ?!)

Ad3. As we know from history, from 23/08/39 the Soviet Union was in alliance with the Third Reich, so until 22 June 41 all its aggressive actions, e.g. against Poland or Finland, mean that they are Axis forces. Panzer Corps itself does not offer a "third option". Besides, even the Allies wanted to send troops to Finland in the winter of 1940 and they had plans to bomb the oil fields in Baku. So I have decided that by June 41' it will be rationally referred Red Army for the Axis. After June 22, 41 will be in the allied alliance.

Ad4. About RAF squadrons, all as of 01/09/2039 were where they were and had the equipment. What AI is doing is hard to predict, it can be changed, but I didn't think about it.

I'm glad you had a nice time playing this scenario. Keep in mind that this is a beta that doesn't even have specific goals to win.

HI,

I played "Battle of Britain" and "Sealion 40" as standalone scenarios.
Congrats!!!
In order to destroy radar stations, the trick is to use the recon aircrafts as bombers, this way a station can be bombed two times by recon planes and then by a Stuka or a Me 110.
I also play at easiest difficulty settings because at leutnant level it is quite hard with latest PaK mod (most of British planes have a value of 15 instead of 10).

As an experiment, I also copy-pasted all scenarios of the original Panzer General campaign converted to Panzer Corps in my games/panzer corps/scenarios.
I did not want to lose the campaign of Pak Mod, I just wanted to play standalone scenarios of original Panzer General using PaK Mod.

It was an interesting experience to play Sealion Plus (with Italian Navy), Berlin, Washington.
There are odd things (all Berlin scenarios have only 8 turns), just two German units were stuck in the sea (Sealion Plus), but all in all, any scenario is playable.

This being said, I prefer playing the scenarios designed for your e-file in order to avoid surprises (even if I prefer smaller maps and less units to move).
Playing the Grand Campaign (DLC) with your e-file is a marvellous experience.

Note that your e-file works well with latest Soviet campaign of Nikivdd.

Hi Ajs81,
Ad2. We didn't think about cutting the script to 40 \ 41 \ 42 (I don't even know how to do it anyway ?!)
Mc Guba in his mod creates saved games (so the player starts the game when he wants with predefined starting positions). There is no script to alter. Indeed, creating such saved game is a lot of work. I understood your map is an experiment. It works well!
Ad3. As we know from history, from 23/08/39 the Soviet Union was in alliance with the Third Reich, so until 22 June 41 all its aggressive actions, e.g. against Poland or Finland, mean that they are Axis forces. Panzer Corps itself does not offer a "third option". Besides, even the Allies wanted to send troops to Finland in the winter of 1940 and they had plans to bomb the oil fields in Baku. So I have decided that by June 41' it will be rationally referred Red Army for the Axis. After June 22, 41 will be in the allied alliance.
In Mc Guba's mod, if the player (playing Germany) does not attack Soviet Union (does not capture any hex owned by Soviets) then AI (Soviet side) does not "fully attack" the human player (war is "limited" by air war and ground skirmishes). So in June 1941 if Germany does not cross the Soviet border, the human player is only at war against UK (victory is either capturing all Soviet V Hexes or British V Hexes, the player has the choice, he can also attack on both sides at the same time...). But this is also true in Mc Guba's mod : in June 1941, Soviet Union becomes to "Allied" side.

Happy New Year!

I haven't thought about the AI settings in this scenario yet. As we said, this is only a Beta version. Is there a balance, are there good messages, no typos, are there bridges, etc.
As for the Soviet Union, as I wrote. Until June 41 it is controlled as the Axis, after June 22 it is among the Allies.

Happy New Year!

How about the Spanish Civil War? :)

Any plans for this? It could serve as a training scenario... :mrgreen: :D
