I tried the Prokhorovka scenario as the Allies against the German AI. Actually not a bad battle.

Re: Just for Fun
Again kudos for testing the game you are making scenarios for! That's what makes Panzer Corps and the DLCs so great.
Compare that to other games on the market: Focus on voice acting, cinematics but unit and scenario balance? That apparently comes last and gets balanced to the point that you don't even need to understand the game to win high every time.
Out of interest, how did you stop/fight the Tigers? I see quite a few overstrength tanks on the map. Waiting for them to attack Infantry in close terrain or anti-tank guns? I guess you largely ignored them and picked out weaker units.

I just can't wait until the "Soviet tank Corps" will be released...Kerensky wrote:I tried the Prokhorovka scenario as the Allies against the German AI. Actually not a bad battle.

Well the AI doesn't like to purchase new aircraft... but the battle for air superiority was still a drawn out affair. I play on Manstein, so their starting FW190s and ME109s were... like 18 strength? Base 13+5 for Manstein. So for the first few turns, I was dodging the Luftwaffe as best I could, because they pretty much 1 or 2 shot even my best LA-5s. On such a large map though, this wasn't too hard to accomplish. So I bided my time and waited for more Soviet aircraft to arrive as reinforcement, and eventually I overwhelmed the Luftwaffe with sheer weight of numbers. Just in time too, I was getting a little irritated watching 18 strength Stukas completely obliterate my armored counter-attacks, heh.
As for the Tigers, yea pretty much had to ignore them and go after their supporting infantry and artillery and air defense units first. Each Tiger shots one of my units no problem, but each Tiger can only do it once per turn.
Without support units though, they floundered against combined infantry/57mm ATG(this thing is AMAZING), IL2, and strategic bomber assaults.
As you can plainly see though, it was an extraordinarily bloody affair, my infantry and tank losses are triple that of the Germans, not to mention all the other units classes I lost.
