Hi,

I am working my way through the DLCs and my memory has failed on the triggers for AO43's alternate path. What are the three actions that are needed top that path?

Thank you.

You may want to check out Stormchaser's excellent summary of caches, CD points, rewards, etc. here:

But to expedite your answer, I think you needed to save 6th Army in AO42. I'll try to summarize it by quoting from the link I posted above:

1. Operation Winter Storm/Operation Blut (AO42)

Events
By checking the game files, if you choose and complete Operation Blut you recieve a single captured SMG Inf token, which is what I presume will unlock whatever alt-history changes caused by your choice here.

2. Prokhorovka (AO43)
Objectives Capturing all secondary Objectives doesn't give any Commendations, but does set up a flag for something later.

3. Operation Roland
Events
If you have saved the 6th Army in Stalingrad, they show up as Auxiliaries to assist you this Scenario.

Objectives Once again capturing all secondary Objectives doesn't give any Commendations and instead is set up for after this Scenario.

Note: You know those flags I mentioned being triggered by the Bonus Objectives in Prokhorovka and Operation Roland? Those are what trigger the option to go down the alternate history route. To do so, you have to trigger 2 of 3 Flags, the ones in Prokhorovka and Operation Roland are 2, and the third is having the SMG Infantry token from the end of 1942. and 2 of these 3 objectives will unlock the ahistorical route, and as far as I know completeing all 3 doesn't do anything special.
Do to the nature of this route split, for once I will actually separate the Campaign paths into 2 sections.

Those steps I cut and pasted from the link I gave you above. I suggest bookmarking it so you can refer to again in the future for any questions you have for any of the DLCs.
