Winter War Viipuri missing T-34

Post by Korvessa »

In the Viipuri scenario I got a news bulletin about gaining a T-34,
But it never showed up.
What do you need to do to get it/?

Hello, in wilderness. :) To get a T-34 of your own you need to destroy at least four Soviet T-34s (three and two at difficulties IV and V). It will then spawn near Viipuri.

It's a bit more complicated than that, it seems:
There's also an option to get that unit if you destroy four such Soviet tanks in middle difficulty, but it's set up wrong, and it only works with difficulty I and II.
(Could be considered a bug, I suppose. Maybe a moderator should move this thread to tech support)

Still, if you got the popup, you should also get the unit.
(BTW: You can trigger the "reward" anytime during the scen using the console command: #trigger 37, even multiple times should work :wink: )

It is a bug. Great catch, Gabe! :) I have played this DLC at the first time on Sept 2016 and then I did get the T-34, but I only played it on diff II (the default). I have played the DLC for the second time on Jan 2018 but now on diff III and didn't get the reward (very likely not the popup either).

That's odd. Maybe master Gabe finds the cause for that or perhaps it is another bug.

Okay, your handle is very fitting then. :D That's a long way from Finland. :)

Yeah, it's odd. Especially since he got the popup. It's inside the same trigger as the unit spawn, so it should happen simultaneously.

@Korvessa
Try if the "#trigger 37" console command (Shift-C) works for you. This should happen:

If not, maybe you should recheck your game's version and installation status.

Then... :shock: :?: scen looks okay to me otherwise. And the trigger seems to work, too. Sorry, can't help you any further with this little mystery.
