Reviewing Victory Conditions

Is there a way to view the Victory Conditions in game? I was playing the "10th SS Drops the Hammer" scenario, where the Victory Conditions are "Germans must control 6 objectives at the end of the last turn to win". I noted the Victory Conditions very casually, but then discovered there were 12 ...

Re: Novice question

Yes - Valor and Victory definitely has Fog of War (FOW). And it's selectable, in the lower left of the screen where you select the scenario. You can use the 'Field Glasses' to see what units can see a specific hex.

I can't get an Action bar at any Zoom level, and the keyboard shortcut doesn't work. Looking forward to the update!

RE: Showcasing WitE2 #3 - Logistics

<t> Two quick questions.<br/>

First, my understanding is that a substantial portion of German transport was horse-drawn, especially early in the war. Is that reflected in moving supplies from depots to units? Or was horse-drawn transport typically used for other functions within a unit?<br ...
