New Panzer Campaigns Updates

[Strela]

Hi All,

All have been hard at work and we can finally release some work from our pipeline.

Firstly, the big update of Japan '45 to version 1.01 is available. You can see what has been changed and other info here; WDS Blog Post

The Japan '45 update is not the previously mentioned interim patch, but rather the full enchilada including the correction to the AI for bridge assaults. A big thanks to John Tiller and Rich Hamilton who assisted here.

We have also put out updates for France '40 Gold and Minsk '44 Gold for the AI issue. Why these two titles? France '40 was specifically promised and Minsk '44 was our test bed for getting the AI to work. Other titles will receive the AI revision as we work through future patch cycles. Please do read the patch notes re this change as there were a lot of broader considerations such as preventing defenders from leaving positions to blindly assault across a bridge etc.

You can get all three patches from the John Tiller Software Updates Page here; Updates link

Thanks,

David

Hey David: 

Thank you and your Team for these enhancements and corrections! 

I especially like the better defined paddy fields and ship imagery! 

Well done and greatly appreciated!

I actually did like the ship images better in the old version.

It felt like it suited the general appearance of the game better - if we have historical photos for ships, why don't we have them for tanks?

Although I get the idea behind the ship images, since they are supposed to be the very same historical ship they represent in the scenario. So mine is a very minor complaint.

Stellar work from WDS team as always, the one and only videogame studio that I never regret purchasing anything from.
