Grand campaign 39-45 east and west is complete.
As promised, the whole package in a single download.
Unfortunately, to add it here as an attachment is not possible because max filesize is 2 mb.
The download link has also been posted in the first post of this thread.
A special thanks to Ralle for his regular feedback.

Hello Nikivdd!! Thanks for sharing your absolutely awesome modding work!!

Just a question: I have integrated the Grand Campaign 39 and 40 with the More Panzer Content 35-40... Can the new scenarios be integrated in this installation? Can I just replace the old files with the new ones?
Thanks again!

Thanks Guille.
New scenarios should work with MPC because nothing was changed to those vanilla scenarios that could cause a problem.

Thanks Niki for the instantaneous answer! You are the best!!

DLC GC Special 1: Export Operation Sea Lion core army into DLC 43 East
Back-up the campaign.pzdat file from the folder DLC\GC43East\data.
Extract and overwrite campaign.zip inside the folder DLC\GC43East\data.
Remember that as long you use this custom campaign.pzdat file, you will not be able to import the GC42East core army into GC43East. Simply place the original campaign.pzdat back to make it possible.

That is the file that was missing!! Thanks again, and again!

DLC Special 2: Reserve pool not cleared in opening mission St Nazaire in DLC 42-43 West
If you'd like a full eastern front core army experience to the western front, than perhaps this tweaked scenario is helpful.
This altered version of the opening mission of St Nazaire no longer clears the army reserve pool after the deployment phase and no longer substracts +9K prestige at turn 2 (for those who thought that selling off the rest would give a nice prestige reserve).

The DLC Specials are also available for download in the first post of this thread.

Back-up the St Nazaire pzscn and pzloc files in the GC42-43West\data folder.
Extract and overwrite the zip into the same folder.

Thanks Nikivdd,
Good job!
But in several successive scenarios, it appears "Capture all objectives AND eliminate all 3 Polish Leaders" as conditions of decisive victory.
Best regards
Yves

Hi Yves,
Which scenario(s)/DLC are you talking about?

DLC Special 3: Rudel appears in the mission Oxford of the Operation Sea Lion campaign
During this mission of the Operation Sea Lion campaign, the super Rudel might now appear. The same prerequisite must be met as in DLC 41 East in order for Super Rudel to arrive on the field of battle.

Back-up the Oxford pzscn and pzloc file in the DLC\Sealion\data folder
Extract and overwrite this zip into the same folder.

Many thanks for the gc complete file. great stuff!

These are the DLC45 East scenarios
I think it's a wrong copy / paste in * .pzloc files from Goldap to Selow Heights.
The 2 branches.
The objectives are good from Berlin.

Best regards

Yves

Thank you very much.

Thanks for all the feedback and reports (also by PM).

An update and a new downloadlink. This update should fix the victory requirements in DLC 45 East.
I also included the DLC 39 extended version. This version allows you to begin the GC with a purchasable starter core. The folder that needs copy/paste is a subfolder of the GC 39 extended folder.

[quote="nikivdd"]Total Panzer Corps upgrade project...and more.

The upgrade of a lot of DLC scenarios with the new equipment that has been introduced by Allied Corps and Soviet Corps.

What is required?

Having the DLC(s) installed. It should work for the steam and non-steam version of the game.

What do i provide?

I provide the scenario.pzscn file, which must overwrite its original in the correct DLC folder. No other files are provided from my side.

What is recommended?

Back-up the GC(s).

Purpose of this (major) upgrade?

More diversity in enemy units.
Hopefully it will contribute to the replayability factor of the "Grand Campaign".

A dumb question but does this upgrade work with the Gold version for Panzer Corps? Also is there any specific names one should use when we back up the original files?

Thanks - Codman

Two questions
Q1) I am just going through gcwest42/43 with your upgraded version. (In addition to the origional designed scenario) I have aquired an SE fighter and fighter bomber. This is in addition to the 4 SE tanks I have. I notice the max number of SE units for gc west 44 is five. I intend to have the maximum amount of SE tanks that I can have so does this mean I have to dump both of these SE planes toward the end of gc42/43 west to get a new SE tank when I start gc 44? or are they in addition to the origional GC SE limit?.
Q2) I must admit the fighter (FW190A) is quite nice since it has aquired an A+3 hero but: is it eventually upgradable? - as I dont want to invest in/keep it if it will become obsolete.
[The fighter/bomber I am quite happy to dump for prestige since i brought two with me as part of the 9 choices from gc41 (rudel and spoils of war A+1 i+6) both of which are very handy.]
thanks for info and lovely work on the gc west upgrade.

1) Yes, you need to disband SE planes if you wish to obtain an all SE tank core. As long the number of SE units in your army pool is higher than 4, you will not receive a new SE unit.
2) There is one more upgrade available within the same family of Fw, the Fw 190D-9 which becomes available in June '44.

There seems to be no end to updates of the equipment file.
Here is version 28 which has the following changes/additions:

Increased movement from 1 to 2 for (SS) 3.7 cm Pak 36 and (SS) 7.5 cm FK 16 nA
36 variant added for Italian inf, Bersaglieri, Alpine inf and horse transport
Spanish Nationalist and Republican units added
Some changes in availability dates of Italian units
