Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

I am learning a lot too and learning to skip turns to resupply and reheal my units or to just sit back and let the enemy come to me. What woul...

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

Wow!

How do you win this?

Russia outnumbers Germany a lot to 1 and they are all fortified down.

Luftwaffe is useless here.

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

Finally got out of Monte Cassino and Piemonte. I won a regular victory but I lost many good infantry and artillery units. Those Nazis wouldn't give up an inch.

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

Monte Cassino is tough. I already played it twice since this morning. You take one or two step and an enemy position appear. Whether is a bunker with a gun or a machine gun or an artillery that can hit you from 3-4 squares away, it makes advancing very slow. Each time an enemy position appear out of...

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

Mustang III fighters, Sherman and Valentine tanks, 155 mm and 182 mm artillery, M16 AA guns mounted on motorized vehicle, Mosquito and Lancaster ...

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

I am still in North Africa chasing the Afrika Korps. I need to go back to school and learn some of these battles. I never heard of this one. When you hear North Africa and Afrika Korps, you think of Rommel, El Alamein, Tobruk, Kasserine Pass. By the way, when it's 80-100 degrees outside, the inside ...

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

Those poor Poles had it rough! They were using old airplanes and tanks against the Germans. Airplanes with this kind of wing design. There is probably a correct name for it but I don't know it. I know it's not biplane.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtiss_O-52_Owl Then I get send to Norway and Fra...

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

So I went back and replay the Siege of Warsaw mission of For Our Freedom and Yours that I mention in my original post. Same as the other day: I was able to take out all the German ground units and then spent the remaining 5-6 turns fighting off the horde of German fighters and bombers. I was able to...

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

The only auxiliary unit is the red beret paratroopers who do not stand a chance against a tank, 3 infantry unit and 1-2 towed artillery coming at them from all sides - even when I am refueling them every other turn - their hit point just keep dwindling until they are dead. I will give the Open Gener...

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

Hi Parabellum. They are really only 4. In the air or on the sea, one or the other. I am going to try tomorrow to deploy 4 tanks and land them on the coast. But with 10 enemy victory hexes to take in a total of 15 turns, that's still impossible. Again, the enemy will retake a victory hex once you lea...

Re: Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

Thank you HexCode. I've gone back and replay it 2 times AFTER replaying the previous Kampinoski Forest map twice to finish with a Brilliant Victory and not one unit lost. there is a bug in that map: there are 3 German HEX to take. One on top right corner, one on top middle, one on bottom middle. If ...

Four Our Freedom and Yours Panzer General II Help please.

First, a little bit of back story on how I got here: a friend was cleaning out his PC games collection and he gave me several of them including Panzer General II. I have been playing it for several months. Took me a while to learn the strategy of it, etc. Finally finish all the stock campaign and I ...
