KUK General Reviewed

Post by cabrestante »

Hello Everybody, :howdy

I consider the Kuk General campaign to be one of the best available for Panzer General. It is well designed, well documented, and the difficulty level is balanced. It also features creative new features such as minefields, submarines that can submerge and surface, and riverine naval units (Monitors) that actually existed and navigated the Danube.

However, when this campaign was ported from PGDOS to PGF, there were some glitches (and there are at least two versions). In the first version, the main problem was the ANCONA scenario, which was impossible to win (despite destroying all enemy units), so the campaign could not continue. In the second version (labelled 1.01), monitors cannot move on the Danube, and submarines have lost the ability to surface. So, a third, revised and corrected version was needed to address these and other minor flaws and propose some small changes, while still respecting the game's original ideas.

In contact with Steve McGuba (developer of the original KUK campaign) I have made a reviewed version.

If anyone is interested, please contact me and I'll send the files for this revised and debugged version.

And to all the PGF campaign developers, thank you so much!!!

I've played (and continue to play) many of those campaigns.

Hello Radoye,

The problem is that I don't know how to share files on this forum !!! :huh
I don't have a website where they can be downloaded. They're only on my computer.

What I can do is to send by email them to the address people provide. My email is: cabrestante999@hotmail.com

Mediafire can be an option for hosting files for download, that's what i'm using for my mods.

Hello sympatyk,

You're right, I haven't read everything posted on the forum, my apologies. ;) Thanks for your note.

I tried using the provided file download, but I don't think it worked because of the size (11.3 MB). :dunno I named it "kuk rv.rar."

Hello, following Radoye's advice, I have uploaded the files to mediafire.

Link to mediafire:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/vglni0iz ... v.rar/file

I'm not familiar with this "mediafire" tool. I think I've done it correctly, but I'm not sure.
If anyone downloads it and it works, please share it on this forum.

And I hope that many people can play with this revised version of kuk general!!!

I can confirm the download works and the file can be unzipped correctly. :yes

I had no chance yet to try to play, looking forward to that too. Thanks!
