For a seasoned wargame player the Weltkrieg camapign is maybe a bit too easy, maybe there's a bit too much prestige and a player can buy too many strong units. But my goal for this campaign was not to create the hardest campaign or the most innovative one. My key goals were: - a core of around 100 ...

Yes, my feedback is only meant to be querying/constructive :) 10 map update follows. I am thinking of further challenge playthroughs. I wanted to try 0%, but it does not seem feasible without at least the per-turn prestige. An alternative is no-air or no-buy German units (excepting the 12 strength g...

Got it! Maybe even more flag liberators are necessary! Scenario feedback below. Overall, I think some consideration of naval deployment should be revisited. If one does not know the enemy disposition, it might not be obvious that the best naval deployment is a fastbuild engineer dropping a port some...

Long time no update. No energy to do by-the-map AAR updates, but here is about 40% through the campaign after Kerch! Prestige is doing okay with 3 liberator leaders, operating at about 80% of a normal playthrough. I'm not sure if future scenarios are much longer and/or have much fewer flags. At some...

While that's true in default settings, E-File makers can make it much stronger if they want (in " equip.cfg "): exp_bar_factor =20 (decreases the experience gained according to your current bars: set "10" to get 90%,80%,70%,60%,50% for 1,2,3,4,5 bars, set "20" to get 8...

I hope I necro'd the right thread. One points to consider: Unit experience is very quickly gathered in longer campaigns to the point of everything having 5 bars and it not mattering. XP regression is not strong enough. In panzer corps, there is a 2-fold penalty at each star (100, 50, 25, 12, 6, 3% e...

We have finally caught up with the complete restart at 50% prestige! The major difference thus far is a massive deprioritization of the heavy artillery corps. :uzi It simply does not make sense to pay 2-3000 for something that one bomber or in some cases a mortar can accomplish (unfortunately). Dev...

After Albania... PzKpfw IID , , 3 bars , 339 exp , Germany , 9/10 , Fast Speed, Special Munition ,20 kill,339 exp ,240 pp :eek Generally a unit gains most experience when it also takes a lot of damage or weak units fighting strong units. Later in the campaign you will notice that it is much easier ...

exp_bar_factor=0 * factor to decrease experience gained in combat according bars (0..20) * default 0, no reduction * set 10 to get 90,80,70,60,50 for 1,2,3,4,5 bars. * Set 20 to get 80,60,40,30,0 for 1,2,3,4,5 bars. * values higher than 20 will be set as 20 With the 50% you mean the overall prestig...

After some reading of AARs, I have decided to challenge myself a bit more...I am adding some difficulty :deal mostly so I can experience all the wonderful less expensive units in the efile. https://i.imgur.com/pxwZc3v.png The original settings were 15% experience loss (40% experience gain still at 4...

Nothing particularly of note for Dardanelles. We have access to a dirt airstrip, so I sold the Graf Zeppelin complement, bought Dicker Max and one more fighter, a recon, and bit the bullet for a Bismarck, seeing as how we seem to be getting nonstop naval deployment missions! Reading forward from Ran...

Is it worth it to play through at this point if you are already so above the curve? Maybe a 0% run is on the table...

Did you build a port at Thermopylae? Nope! I just went to the east and landed there. I am trying my hardest not to spend money building... Crete...I hate Crete. I shuffled around some prestige to purchase (hopefully temporarily) Graf Zeppelin and another seaborne scout and another recon Schnellboot...

Hi all, Longtime genre fan, fairly new to OG (played half of a Japan campaign about a year ago). I joined the discord, and randowe suggested I also keep track of my progress in atomic weltkrieg. House rules for fun: no/minimal reloads (only for technical issues). More importantly, one of each unit o...

Excellent. Thank you for the in depth response! I was concerned due to seeing cores > 100. Coming from panzer corps, I was afraid I would have a sunk cost in not knowing some secret optimal core strategy. It’s quite um new to me that there is no slot limit, but I imagine frontage would come into pla...

Hello! I have the itch again and have come back from Panzer Corps. A few questions which may seem silly. - What is the difference between CC EFILES and standard efiles with the same campaign? - I selected ATOMIC EFILE randomly and picked Weltkrieg randomly, and it appears that this is actually one o...
