1.08 beta

1.08 beta
First results of v. 1.08 beta testing
Missing dlls
This version of the game needs Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 redistributable; 64 and 32 bit versions. If you do not have it you will get error messages ''vcruntime140.dll missing'' and ''msvcp140.dll missing.'' This has been tested on two computers and the redistributable solved the problem on both. One computer had 2017 version of the same redistributable that interfered with the install of 2015 version and had to be uninstalled first.
Real Reds
The Soviets are much more aggressive in this version so watch out and do not ignore any Soviet units on the map; you never know what they are up to.
Security Battalion Bug
In 1.08 security forces are only available in divisions so all battalion size security units used as town garrisons would need to be replaced by line infantry; otherwise the player gets an error message ''No battalion formation for unit Security_de.'' A security division can fill a gap in the line or even hold the Bolsheviks for a day but keeping security battalions close to the front line is not a good idea.
to be continued

The art of war is simple and esay to understand but fighting a war is hard.

Security Bug in 1.08. (Marechal saw well)
With the Editor we can choose the formations :

If we choose battalion, the game crushes !
We should have the choice between battalion, regiment, brigade and division as in 1.07 for Security Unit.

In 1.08, the enemy choose his upgrade at the scenario start and not at the beginning of his first turn.

Bug with Polish Recruitment.
In the scenario Kutno (15/09/39), it is possible to recruit :
- Polish mortar
- Zis-3 artillery
- Polish Infantry 44
This bug was certainly present in the version 1.07 (?)

Hi terminator,
we introduced a new symbol but in your version (you will get an update soon) it is represented by the medal. The 0 does not mean zero slots, but no core units present yet. The medal is meant to be an infinity sign so you can actually place as many core units as you want with the setting you chose.
This is the new symbol:

Hi Ronald,
The new symbol is more clear.
In the GaW Changelog 1-08:
- TP-7 was given correct name 7TP and values were adjusted (are now like Finnish T-26)
The 7TP has not the same values as Finnish T-26 :

Hi terminator,
Panzer I : both Ausführungen vary a bit and i had it changed in my overview but not transfered into the game. Hav done that now.
7TP : True, had wrong values for the Finnish T26B in my overview on my computer and used that for the update. Now its corrected in all tables.
Thanks for spotting these things, much appreciated!
