Title: JTS France '14 Update 1.04 Released
Post by: Compass Rose on August 19, 2014, 10:15:48 AM
JTS just released update 1.04 for the JTS version of France '14.

Please Note: This update is not for the HPS version, but only for the JTS version.

Changes to France '14 V1.04
- Added new Fragile Morale feature which applies to Austro-Hungarians and Russians.
Under this rule, Detached units have 2 subtracted from their morale when rallying instead of 1, and units which much retreat after an assault are automatically eliminated. However, this does not apply to A and B quality units.
- When units are combined, the combined unit takes on the average of the fatigue of the individual units by strength.
- Disrupted units have full movement allowance during day turns, 2/3 at night.
- Disrupted units take 3x normal movement to move closer to spotted enemy unit.
- New graphics compatible with East Prussia '14.

The update can be located here:

Damn! I have the HPS version. :( Any hint as to when it will apply to the HPS version?

They usually come out about a week after the the JTSC version.  I'll be checking frequently or it.

I just checked at theblitz.org and I would guess that the HPS update version will be out there by the end of this week.  It will bring up the graphics to EP '14 standards among a lot fo other neat stuff.

OK, the stakes on this patch now, in my groggy mind, just got very high.

Inside East Prussia '14 is a linked-campaign system that, well, links to France '14 and let's you (and perhaps a team of your friends) fight out a huge chunk of WWI.  These are based on a set of scenarios that are in EP14, but I don't see them in F14.

Has anyone seen any indication of when the F14 grand campaign scenarios will be available?

Best,
