And... another one bites the dust!
This time I gave more thoughts to the core development, and I also didn't forget about the insane prestige rewards throughout the campaign. I had quite a few BVs with quite a few protos. Except for the 2nd Tobruk scenario I didn't need to restart anything (this battle was a real punishment the first try, I lost two tanks, three airplanes, and an infantry, so I got back to the HQ), and I only ever loaded last turn like two or three times when I lost a leadered tank, and a 15 cm aty.
This was pretty enjoyable, and I'm thinking about designing some silly campaign with similar settings. PG2 efile is unfortunately kinda outdated, and I'm not sure if e.g. Waffenkammer would be better (in a "mid-cost efile" sense), but no matter what, I'm gonna get back to designing some time soon.

Tanks are broken in this efile, the low cost leads to a Big Cats Pavilion core. ATY is also quite op, attack stats are out of this world; at least the ammo count sucks. I wanted to have four SPATY against IS tanks, but they were never really needed.
Nice and enjoyable campaign, as usual, the only thing missing was the classic "tu tudududu túdu túdu, tu tudududu túdu túdu, tu tudududu túdu túdu, tú-dudú" tune.
