New PFE Update v1.01 Now Available!

Piercing Fortress Europa is a new game from veteran game designer Frank Hunter, which covers the campaigns of the Western Allies from July, 1943 through the end of April, 1945 in Sicily and Italy. Each area has its own map and time scale to best represent the campaigns for Sicily and Italy and the player is offered complete freedom, limited only by a historical order of battle and logistics model, to plan his operations and explore all of the many “what ifs” that the Italian theater has to offer.

New PFE Update v1.01 Now Available!

Post by Andrew Loveridge »

We have a new update for Piercing Fortress Europa. You can get it by updating thru the Menu, or the games download page

v1.01 – March 27, 2014
    Changes[/b] [ul]
  • Fixed the couple of bugs that have been reported.
  • Encrypted passwords for PBEM play
  • Added a new screen resolution, 2560 x 1600
  • Increased the counter offset so its easier to tell there's multiple units in a hex
  • Fixed a bug that caused the yellow hex outline to sometimes not show up
  • Added some sounds and some checkboxes in the Settings form to turn some or all of them off and on.
  • The red ID indicator when a unit is about to be withdrawn now happens 3 turns before withdrawal
  • Switched the Settings and Supply buttons
  • Fixes a bug in the withdrawal module that often caused retreating units not to gain the benefit of retreating through friendly units (friendly units block enemy ZoCs).
  • Improved Allied AI in regards to putting workers in ports.
  • Many manual changes and additions.

Have to note that you can't play a saved game from the original version with 1.01.

Also, the Settings and Supply buttons were switched back to as they were in the original.

Frank did the Naval support for Allies defending a beachhead make it in to this patch? I could not see it documented.

Michael T, yes it did, but I added it after the manual changes. Which I guess, to use a boardgame term, means its "errata".
