Hello all

The team behind the award-winning game Advanced Tactics is back with a new and improved game engine that focuses on the decisive early days of World War II! Decisive Campaigns: The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris is the first in an innovative series of operational World War II wargames that also include a strategic element. The Blitzkrieg from Warsaw to Paris simulates Germany’s military successes in Poland and France in 1939 and 1940 (including also a hypothetical “Sea Lion” invasion of Great Britain).

Hello all

Post by Slazz »

Purchased the game a few days ago, and I am really liking it so far! For once I can actually wrap my mind around an operational title, never had much success with these games in the past.

I was wondering how won would take screen shots? Sorry for this basic question, can't find it in the manual. Just played the Bzura scenario as the Germans and finally took Warsaw on the 17th of September. I cut off a large amount of Polish troops Wyszvogrod/Sochaczew line.

I did have a little help with reinforcements with the Third Panzer Division, so that helped pull some of the AI defenders from the center of Warsaw, while the 1st Panzer division along with the 14th Infantry drove straight up the gut north to Warsaw central for the win. Was very fun, and along with all the variants I can see plenty of re-playability in each scenario.

Hi slazz

I use a little free program called screenhunter and it works great.

you can get it here and the free version works great with AT and has most of the options you need.

I take screenshots by using the "print screen" key and then pasting them into Paint.net.

I use SimpleScreenShot.

Works great with me, I can asign a certain key for the screen shot. Then I can save it and it gets placed in a file of my choice.

Different games, different files.

Very simple to use. And it's free!

Thank you for the quick answers, I couldn't remember if it was print screen then paste or if people used third party software. Looks like I have both options now. Any how, still having quite a time with this title, love the ease to be able to jump into such a detailed game without getting derailed by to MANY options. Playing Case White right now and I don't think I will make it to Warsaw in time, the stubborn Polish are fighting with everything they have and slowing me down at every river crossing. And I learned the hard way not to leave engineer units unprotected, if you lose a couple of these early it's really tough to gain any momentum.

As far as I can remember the game has an option to take a screenshot of the whole map at the end of each turn.
