Quick Question regarding Demyansk Pocket Scenario ('41 DLC)

Post by Teleblaster18 »

I just finished the Demyansk Pocket scenario, and escorted 4 Ju52's to 4 different airfields, as well as having captured every Soviet Airfield, City, and wiped out every last Soviet unit.

I ended up with a Marginal Victory. :roll:

The question:

Do you have to leave the 4 escorted Ju52's as transports, or can you land them and use the Bruckenpioniere inside?

Thanks!

I just found out the answer for myself, by a stroke of luck. Good thing that I left the Bruckenpionieres close to the Transport Airfields...and that I saved my turns!!! :D

The 4 Bruckenpioniere Units that were landed off the Ju52's must occupy the Transport Airfields at the same time to end the scenario with a Decisive Victory.

What I was doing was landing one, then sending the Bridging units out to battle, figuring that the computer was keeping a tally that I had landed the first unit, etc. Not the case. Glad I could salvage a Decisive Victory, though. I was not too keen on replaying the whole thing so soon after I wiped Ivan clean off the map.

You don't have to deploy/land the units in the Ju52's transports, if you keep the planes above the 4 supply airfields you will also gain a DV.

I also wasn't sure what to do exactly so I just kept the transports in the air without landing any units so I could see what would work when I had all 4 transports.
