Wow this patch fixes and improves a lot of things.  Now I can start a new campaign and give it a try.

Agreed...and I finally figured out how to get the counter-mods to work so it looks awesomely better now.  Starting a new campaign today.

Between this and Unity of Command II, I'm having some great WW2 gaming.

A War of a Madman's Making - a text-based war planning and political survival RPG

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.
- Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian


If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

How did you get the counter mods to work?  They don't work for me.

I posted the question in the Matrix forums and a guy replied with this: C:\Users\Owner\Documents\My Games\WarPlan\Campaigns and then I placed mine in Europe 1939.  After downloading the mod file to my desktop I moved by following his instructions exactly and it worked.

I think this time I will try to take Spain & Gibraltar.  If Turkey does not willingly join the Axis some blue arrows will have to be drawn on that part of the map also.   

But first ........... in Poland it begins:

Thank you, fellas.

Just in time for the holidays. I've come close to pulling the trigger on this. The discount will definitely give the green light for firing off the credit card.

Thank you JH!  Although I already bought the game day one I appreciate the ability of Grogheads to get discounts like these.   O0

The game is well worth it especially if you grew up on Avalon Hill's Third Reich/Advanced Third Reich.
