RE: Some thoughts about OoB

<t> - You were right about the costs of building resp. destroying bridges: They are both 10 RP.<br/>
- I just played Mlawa in Blitzkrieg again. I won in 22 of 25 turns and received 291 RP in the next scenario. Then I started again with turn 22 and played all 25 turns before winning: I got 306 RP ...

Some thoughts about OoB

<t> Hi<br/>
OoB is great, I really like it. So far I played Boot Camp, Morning Sun, Rising Sun and Blitzkrieg. Right now I am in the middle of Panzerkrieg.<br/>
Still I think there is room for improvement.<br/>

Panzerkrieg - Rzhev salient: I don't understand the primary objectives

<t> Yes, it's me again, not understanding the game (seems I chose a good user name).<br/>
In the Rzhev scenario there is one primary objective, saying "Hold at least 3 primary VPs" (there are 4), and another primary objective is "Control all primary VPs by the end".<br/>
If I achieve the second ...

RE: Blitzkrieg - Moscow: Secondary objective just a red herring?

Thanks, bru888.
I never realized the objectives changed between primary and secondary VPs, so I always tried to hold the primary VPs, incurring extreme casualties (if I held them at all).

RE: Blitzkrieg - Moscow: Secondary objective just a red herring?

I guess it isn't a German-version problem. When I played the scenario for the first time I probably didn't hold any VPs when the message about holding the gains came. In that case the original objective to capture 2 VPs doesn't have to be changed.

RE: Blitzkrieg - Moscow: Secondary objective just a red herring?

<t> Now I see the problem with the unclear message about holding "our hard-fought gains". I am playing the game in German language and there seems (again) to be a mistake in the objectives' German version. In the English version one primary objective changes after that message to "You mustn't lose ...

RE: Blitzkrieg - Moscow: Secondary objective just a red herring?

<t> I guess it is not intended that the Germans take Moscow. However, you can still win the scenario without taking Moscow. Using the “#igotnukes” cheat you will see the victory message: “Combat attrition blabla have caused the first set back blabla. None the less blabla succesfully stemmed the ...

I reached the secondary objective, but ...

RE: OoB Blitzkrieg: Specializations lost in new scenarios

I thought the auto save was activated, because at the beginning of a new scenario a [Blitzkrieg] (Campaign).saz is created. And when I end a turn, there always is an autosave file for the new turn.
How do I switch on "autoserve per turn"? It is not in the options menu.

OoB Blitzkrieg: Specializations lost in new scenarios

When you acquire a new specialization after a scenario, then start the new scenario and exit the game in turn 1 without saving, the new specialization is not saved, although an automatic save file, called [Blitzkrieg] (Campaign).saz, is created.
Is this intended?

Blitzkrieg: How do I win the Kiev scenario?

<t> One of the primary objectives is "Destroy or rout 100 ground units".<br/>
When exactly is a unit routed? When it leaves its position as a consequence of an attack?<br/>

A secondary target is to connect the towns of Mirgorod, Romny and Konotop. I think I did this (see attached screenshot ...

OoB Blitzkrieg: Should I select the SS specialization?

<t> Hi<br/>
In Blitzkrieg you can select as a specialization to have SS units. Do they have any special capabilities?<br/>
If not I can't see much sense in selecting them. My credits and deployment points will be split between Wehrmacht and SS, reducing my flexibility how to use the credits and ...

Blitzkrieg: Bug in Greece scenario?

<t> Hi<br/>
I am playing the German version of Blitzkrieg. One secondary target in the Greece mission is to take Ioannina in 25 turns. But already in the beginning of turn 21 the game says I failed. Taking the city in 25 turns doesn't change that. Does the game expect me to reach the objective in ...
