Small preview of the Panther tank being worked on for this game.
Not much info yet on what DLC it will be in but the detail is excellent.

Trying to get Andrey on the Graviteam forum to post more pics,and I will post them here later.

New patch for GTOS.
Link:
http://www.graviteam.com/AP-STAR/gtos_patch_aug13a_eng.gt2extension

This patch replaces the Aug13 patch and should take your game update from 4.09 to 4.10.

The new DLC Shilovo 42 is also going to get an update within the next 2 weeks.

To bad Matrix couldn't have develop a better relationship with Graviteam and manage the patches for English players.

I'm actually happy that Matrix isn't involved with this anymore.
The patching and updating isn't all that difficult once you understand the concept.
This is a constant work in progress.

Matrix was a bad choice for Graviteam.Matrix wanted exclusive rights to the Publishing and distribution of the game.
Graviteam has been screwed too many times by other publishers on other games to grant them these rights.

Matrix still keeps up their site for this game but all they do is spam it for their other products.

As far as I'm concerned Graviteam made the right decision because Matrix charges too much and does nothing in return for the extra $.
The patching isn't all that difficult and without Matrix being the sole distributor I probably saved an extra $100-200 if Matrix was the only one involved with the product.
Graviteam is working on a better way to update the game,but I don't find it really a problem anymore once you've done it a few times.

Graviteam still needs to make a clearer understanding of what a patch is as opposed to an update a Mod or DLC.
Those lines have gotten a little blurry lately and hopefully they will get this straightened out when they launch their new flag ship game Mius Front43.

I've come to a similar viewpoint lately.

To avoid confusion.
These campaign mods are campaigns that were part of APK43 and SABOW and have been updated for use in GTOS.

I just downloaded and added them to my GTOS game and they all work so far.
I haven't had a chance to play them yet but at least I know that they can be added to GTOS with out a problem.

Are the in-game text (menus, etc.) in English?  Or Russian?

Just like a regular English campaign only made by the Russian community for the English version of this game.

New rules for troop management system for the new game Mius Front.

More details about new troop management system in quick battle and operational phase (based on the results of alpha-testing).

Each squad will consist of two parts: main and secondary (empty slots in squads list per Operation Star terms). Secondary part is optional. Secondary part (and only it) can receive squads and equipment from the reserve (anything taken from the reserve may return to it at any time if its platoon is not encircled). Now there can be more than one reserve - one per unit, and several for all the units of the side.

Player (and the enemy AI) has several ways to influence the composition of troops in a battle.

1) Create a reinforced company within a battalion. A company can be selected, it will receive the most experienced commanders, high morale and experienced forces of greater numbers, the best equipment, etc. The management system will try to fill all empty slots of the main part of the company. Each battalion can have one such company. All reassignments are made automatically (within platoons of a battalion located in neighboring cells). Player only needs to specify such company.

This feature allows to quickly gather all combat-ready troops in a battle group, for example, at the place of attack, or suspected enemy attack. The battalion, of course, has to operate in about the same place.

2) Prioritize a platoon - determines whether to change the composition of the platoon (and, generally, whether may something occur to it). It works globally, and determines which platoons will be replenished first, which will be second, and which will be not at all.

3) Select a "formation strategy" for a platoon. Determines which units the secondary part will receive from the reserve. Available strategies depend on the type of platoon. A strategy can be changed only if the platoon is not encircled.

Allows to reinforce infantry platoons with supporting weapons, or to transfer infantry weapons under the control of the company commander, or to attach tank-borne infantry to tanks, to provide troops with transport, and to attach an artillery spotter to the battalion commander. Strategy can be canceled, all units of the secondary part will return to the reserve and then may be used by another platoon on the next turn.

The system does not allow to make an armored platoon or an artillery battery out of an infantry platoon, and vice versa.

4) Reallocation of resources and personnel within a platoon. Works automatically, starting on the second turn of the operation. The player can block the reallocation by assigning low priority for a platoon. This allows to gather personnel and ammunition in the most combat-ready squads of the platoon (while some squads may become disbanded in the process).

Mius-Front will revise the algorithm of equipment repair. Just like before, the repair will be done automatically by the crew and repair teams.

In the first case, the repair is very slow and depends heavily on the experience of the crew. In addition, there will be a restriction on the level of damage that can be repaired by the crew in Mius - serious damage will not be repaired.

In the second case, repair teams will repair equipment in the near surrounding area as before. As before, each team can repair one equipment per turn with the given "power" in man-hours. But heavy damage will not be repaired "in place" in Mius. Repair team will take away the equipment, repair it, and then return it back to the platoon if possible, or otherwise to the pool of reserves.

I'm reading about Mius right now, this looks very interesting.  Any idea when it's coming out?
