This one wasn't too difficult. The VH on the West can be hold with the Italians and a bit of help. The rest of the army has to run to reach the East VH's on time. They will be waiting you there! :fight The usual strategy with the Air force finishing the FTRs and ART works well. Just be careful with ...

Ramon

Well okay but TB can and should attack AA and AD if they have the initiative. They get good experience by this. :grumpy Yes. That depends on the equipment and the campaign. For example if your units are not replaced at the start of the new scenario, usually is costly to purchase TB units. An the at...

Ramon

Took me a while to figure out this one. :huh The AI is very aggressive. In the South several Hard units will be attacking you immediately. The only unit that can face such attack is the 8.8 FlaK36. Sadly I don't have any of those units. I found them too week( just 4 defense). I tried some combinatio...

Ramon

Thank you all!
That makes sense.

It's something to take into consideration when buying an ART or TB. These units usually try to avoid confrontation and attack units that can't fire back.
Gracias por la aclaración Luis!

This one was intense! :monster I played this scenario long, long time ago. :grumpy I get caught in my first attempt. Dividing my army in two sections none of them able to advance quick enough. So I decide a complete change of approach.I will use my Air Force and ART Force. And forget about crossing ...

Ramon

That was though! :( First attempt I just kept fighting the incoming waves and just had a TV. It looks to me impossible to eliminate all enemies and reach the distant VH :huh I figure out that I should change my strategy. :deal Upgrade my 4 bar INF to a Combat Support unit and buy two 8.8 Flak to fac...

Ramon

An entertaining scenario. The enemy is well entrenched and not easy to get rid of. If not for my Air force shooting down the good enemy ART this will be quite challenging. Because it will take more time and you have some very good and hard units chasing you. But my air units eliminated the ART befor...

Ramon

This is a long standing doubt I have.

When ART or TB attack. Or when a unit with range two attack an unit with range one that can't fight back.
The attacker will always shot first and there wont be any counter attack isn't?
Does the initiative matters?

Ramon

This scenario is not difficult but for the far away East VH's. I was very short on turns and made the BV just in time. :phew Again my air force take easily care of the FTRs and the ARTs. Some AA will make it more challenging. That's not a critic on the designer, don't get me wrong. It's just a hint ...

Ramon

I upgraded my veteran TNK to an expensive TNK with Support (Very effective used with my two ING leaders AT !). And I bought a TNK and a cheap boat to take care of the submarine. That's how my army looks at the start. https://forum.open-general.com/userfiles/20250618_ 17_52_001.jpg This was a fun sce...

Yep, only tiled maps.

As a player it's ok
As an artist I miss the maps

Ramon

Rough terrain is the main problem in this scenario. And somehow looks like the Greeks has built a Artillery Factory :D They became the playground for my air force as they were close to the airfield. https://forum.open-general.com/userfiles/20250617_ 20_14_002.jpg I just left the Italians with my Air...

I was given this expensive bomber but I didn't keep it. https://forum.open-general.com/userfiles/20250617_ 12_59_001.jpg Instead I used the prestige to upgrade my army. Two leader Eng.

Ramon

I approached this scenario focusing in the North VH. The enemy was quite aggressive and that point is heavily defended. You have to be ready for Air and Sea Attacks. In my first attempt even my experienced Soft units suffer too much. :thud I took my time and approached carefully with my experienced ...

Ramon

An interesting scenario. I came up with a plan :deal I realised that the enemy air force was no match for me. I will eliminated them in a couple of turns. So I bought two 10.5 IeFH18 ART, a cheap INF and another TB with RCN. I move all the aux to the central VH. Then divide them into two teams one t...

Ramon

I made some errors in this scenario but in the end I managed to achieve the BV. I saw that the enemy has a good air FTR force. I think is time to have a good one for myself and spend all the prestige in a Me-109E-3. I should sell my proto AA. It's good but too much prestige for an unit barely used. ...

Ramon

I forgot to mention that I got a devastating fire leader for my Recon TB. I decide to by the most powerful (and expensive) TB the He-111H. It was a killer! :evil This scenario is not too complicated onece you have figure out how to make it. You split your army in two. On the North. https://forum.ope...

Ramon

This is a tough one! :phew I get a good 8.8 Flak AA. I was in doubt as AA are rarely used (but when used ,it makes a difference). I decide to keep it as the enemy has a very good FTR Spitfire far superior to my poor FTR's. There are two routes to the distant VHs. One is blocked and difficult to pass...

Thank you both. I'll try to remember to switch off Terrain and Spotted Hex. :bonk I bought an Recon TB. It is expensive but it has lasting suppression. Adding to my Leader Recon FTR and a TB will "soften" any hard problem. :lol https://forum.open-general.com/userfiles/20250607_ 19_58_001.j...

Once again I'm trying to play a Campaign with my own rules to minimise the "chance factor". :wink As I said in this thread https://forum.open-general.com/viewtopic.php?p=20056#p20056 I wish to play with neither leaders nor protos. On the other hand my weakness is to reload too much. That t...

In the Island of course.

Your your troops have to land, destroy the buildings (there are not already destroyed) and take the VH they are protecting.

I love playing the game so much but leaders are more of a burden because i don't want to play 80+ scenarios with unwanted leaders.

Luis, if you are already reminiscing about the old days - please - tell me --> How did it happen that you started making a new game engine, an alternative to PG2?

Ramon

I will give my humble opinion on the way I played this campaign. I played this campaign with two rules: 1.- Play without prestige (0%, AI still 100%) 2.- Never reach the cap (counting the value of the protos) And two tricks: 1.- Take a peek into the Scenario using the Suit 2.- Save before important ...

55 New York City , #60 , Brilliant Victory And the final Scenario!

54 Long Island Landing , #59 , Brilliant Victory Quite a complicated scenario :huh You have to land with your army (that's not easy) and go all the way to the West where a good defense is waiting you. I have to try a couple of times until I firugured out a way to go. In the South See you have a not...

53 Tanganyika , #58 , Brilliant Victory A very easy scenario (if you peek out the suite, so in this case I recomend not to).

50 Quebec , #54 , Brilliant Victory A tricky one! :scratch It's not that is too difficult. The main problem is that you have to choose your units in the North part of the river wisely. Because there is no way to "send reinforcements" My TNK's were nearly wiped out when they encountered a ...

Ramon

Reload spamming was somewhat fixed in PG3D and Scorched Earth. Unlike the true RNG in PG1 and PG2, PG3 has either pseudo-RNG or saves some kind of a seed. I.E., you save the game, you attack, you get the rolled result. Then you reload, repeat the same attack, and you still get exactly the same resu...

47 Lake Michigan , #50 , Brilliant Victory Another different and challenging scenario. A massive army trying to scape that you have to stop and destroy. I lost the scenario 2 times (4 units scape).

44 Cape May , #47 , Brilliant Victory Another Scenario that need careful planning. Three fronts will be needed. One in the West, going North .

Fantastic! This is a good solutions for the "useless leaders" problem I point out.
