1.I'm playing the 3rd Battle of Kharkov scenario as the Germans and noticed I cannot attack with my Stuka. I read the help file with no results. Only thing I can think of is a weather limitation? Any help appreciated.

The weather is the probable culprit, have a look at 4.2 in the manual, air-ground only if it is sunny.

Thanks for the reply. I missed the dull colored weather icons on the top right of the sceen.

One observation. I think artillery (in this case the russian BM-13) strength needs to be toned down as a few salvoes knocked my tiger battalion down from 7 to 3 strength! I see the same results against other of my armored units. Those arty units are like mobile hunter killers! Also the defense of those units need to be toned down as well. I had 4 armored divisions surround and attack one of those BM-13's and still could not destroy it (went from 9 to 1 in strength).

So far enjoying the game, hope to see more downloadable scenarios.

2nd play through of the Kharkov scenario. I just noticed the upgrades on my tiger battalion are gone. At the beginning of the scenario I upgraded the tiger unit with more fuel and increased strength by 1. No when I check the status, the upgrades are gone?

False alarm, somehow even though I right clicked my tiger unit, the stats window was actually showing info for another unit.

This has had a tendency to happen now and then.
