Get ready for Mark H. Walker's Lock ‘n Load: Heroes of Stalingrad. This is the first complete computer game in the Lock ‘n Load series, covering the battles in and around Stalingrad during World War II.
Sorry this forum doesn't allow hyperlinks...i guess.
I'll try to make some more over the next few days.
Thank you! Thank you! That was perfect. Clear simple and very well presented. I watched it this morning and I am hoping to make the map tonight or tomorrow. I will make the same map so I can follow what you do in the future. Thanks again.
Regarding the campaign, Russians lost almost every battle on the way to Stalingrad, and once within the city, they were forced to retreat gradually to the Volga. But those unsuccessful confrontations did not keep them from fighting, winning the battle and subsequently the war.
In order to be roughly historical, the campaign system should reflect this. Instead, if as Russian I don't get a victory on every battle by playing over and over until I solve what jkantor called a "fixed puzzle", I will never get to the next one. One possible solution to this issue would be to make all the campaign battles available as single scenarios, as was done in COH. Another would be to let us play the next battle, but with increased odds against us. This way we will all get to play the whole game.
