I had to finally pull the trigger on France '40 Gold...I have wanted it for years, now I regret I waited so long.   There are a couple CW titles I may get...and Waterloo...and...of course Pacific War since it will complete my WWII SB collection...then there is East Prussia '14 so I can complete my WWI collection...damn I need to be careful.


Hi Gabeeg.

I am still wavering on this one....how are you finding it ?

So far so good...this might become my favorite PzC title so far.  Large amount of scenarios (and scenario variations) has monsters, large, mid size and small.  I like the theater, year and equipment mix so right up my alley, and a lot of variety in units, equip. and map features.  ...take with a grain of salt though, I have only played through 1.5 scenarios so far, and that against the AI.

Thanks Gabeeg.

Very useful.

It is almost inevitable I will give in before the end of the sale  :)

Where are the campaigns in Campaign Gettysburg?  Only the scenarios show up as choices.  I  thought there was some sort of campaign aspect to the game as well.  Thanks.

Check for a separate .exe.

Found it. Open it and clicked on 'new campaign'....there is nothing there but an empty folder.  Will probably have to go to Tiller's site for support?

In your Campaign Gettysburg folder you will find a cp_start application. Click it and a box opens asking you to pick a name to save it. Type in what you want and save and then you should be at the box to pick your Campaign options

Thanks....it worked.  What confused me was that I didn't have to do the 'pick and name to save it' with Campaign Ozark.

Memo to Gabeeg.

This, and all the Panzer Campaign series will be getting the new hi-res graphics we talk about here; https://www.wargamedesignstudio.com/2020/05/30/wds-lockdown-update-1/

Fingers crossed, the updates will be done later this year.

Just ran through the start up scenario without referring to the walkthrough this morning and my 7th Panzer only got 2 of the three objectives so it was indeed "A Bloody Nose" as the scenario is titled  :) ......I scraped a marginal defeat due to wiping out some Belgian units but maybe I do need the walkthrough as it is pretty much my first proper go at a Tiller WW2 title. :)

Made mistakes with the engineers and the Belgian Chasseurs were tough but wow what a great game. Looks so much better and your recommendation was spot on. Thank you.

I am a total novice then Pete  :)

Those maps are really nice.

As a modding caveman can you advise which folder I need to install the mod into ? Is it the game folder or the Map Editor folder ?

Those files go in the main folder and have the main folder structure but will overwrite some original files.

I use JSGME to install (or uninstall) these mods while protecting the original files.

I started an AAR for the campaign game in the 1.0 version, though we didn't get very far and moved on to other scenarios.

The Japanese forces are stronger now than they were in the original version, and I'm worried that might tip the balance in favour of the Japanese.

It's a good title though. If you don't mind a hypothetical campaign with mostly historical forces.
