Preview maps missing

I noticed that two scenarios on Panzerkrieg - Stalingrad and Operation Zvezda - don't have the little maps scenarios should have (if you choose one from the scenario list).

Right again, CoolDTA, and here is where I get banned from this forum for life. "How dare you? We intentionally left out those previews because they were spoilers. Begone! Begone, big mouth!"

But I will sacrifice myself anyway for the good of the game-playing public. Yes, both scenarios are missing a file called "preview.png" which is the preview map that you are talking about. They are easily generated with the scenario editor and I have uploaded them both here. If you choose to use them, download them one at a time, erase the scenario name in each file name so that they are just "preview.png" again, and place them in the corresponding Stalingrad and Operation Zvezda folders.

If it was an oversight, I am sure the developers will correct this. If not, well, it's been good to know you fellows. Good-bye! Good-bye! Good-b

Well, the maps are only visible
after you have played the scenario in a campaign, so of course no one who has not done that even glances at the maps, right? Right?
Thanks for them anyway!

[They let me come back for one last post to answer you.]
True. Yet, some people do like to cherry-pick and replay scenarios after they have won them and moved on. Also, there is the cheat code, applicable on the main menu screen, to release
all scenarios in every purchased campaign whether you played them through or not: #gimmeall
Oh, excuse me a moment. I have a PM coming in . . .
. . . okay, the gist of it was "How dare you reveal that cheat code in public? You are hereby banned again for life, and this time we mean it!
"
So this is good-bye again, guys.
Well, so lon
