Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

Ah, I see, I did not have the whole campaign in the folder.

I was trying to review a save from 09, but I only have 1-7, so if anyone has an 8 they could upload, I'd sure appreciate it.

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

Sorry to be so annoying and I do appreciate your help. This is sort of mysterious. So, the savegames files with numbers at the beginning--those are campaigns, right? So I download the files and put them in the "Campaign" folder which is inside "save," correct? Then I go to campai...

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

So, I got four tanks on it, again, and this time destroyed the occupying unit. But then I didn't have enough movement points to enter the city.

I swear this game is laughing at me.

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

Once again, got four tanks on Novgorod, could not destroy the unit. Odds are always 4:0 at best. How is this supposed to be possible?

And, yes, I had cut off his supply the prior turn,

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

Closest I have come yet, I had four tanks on Novgorod at turn six, but didn't take it. Got the defender down to one step but no breach. Fak.

Thanks, I have not played campaigns so I didn't realize that was a different type of file.

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

juoc, when I load your saved game into my folder, it does not show up when I click "Load Game" from the main menu. Danielefc's does, though, so I know it's possible to use saved games from other players. I did exactly the same thing, I just copy and pasted it into my saved games folder. An...

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

The problem is, you have to kill absolutely every unit in the south well before turn 5, other wise zone of control makes reaching Novgorod impossible. A couple of times I have been able to get close, but it's never enough. Even with tanks, the odds against that dug in unit are 5:0 against me, so I h...

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

Even when I destroy the forward most German infantry, it doesn't matter. They "bulge" around Orel, making it impossible to encircle. Or, almost impossible, I am able to do it sometimes. But in the south, never. And, I don't have enough men to keep them surrounded in the north, so my supply...

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

I cannot win this no matter what I do. I have watched your playthrough several times. I have even gone so far as to try to match it move for move. But the AI never ever ever ever ever does for me what it does in your game. In particular, I find it very hard, though not quite impossible, to surround ...

Re: Orel/Briansk--Help!

Here's the way it is looking now. I buy the attachment, they are suppressed until the beginning of the following turn. Which is to be expected. Then they are apparently ready to fight at the beginning of the next turn. UNTIL I move the unit, at which point they are greyed out again. Ideas? I do appr...
