Excellent news!

I think I caught one issue: New replacement value in the PDT - set to 0 for both sides. I already have replacements built into the OOB.
I fell into that myself and I was pointed out if Replacements in the PDT is 0 then there is no reiforcements. It should be 1 to allow reinforcements in the OOB to work as intended.

Is the new scenario able to be played on both sides?

Thanks for picking that up Cesar.

The zip file has now been updated with a revised PDT and one corrected graphic. You can either download the full package again or alternatively apply the PDT and graphic files in the zip file attached here.

Thanks,

It should be ok now, user error this side!

2 small things to correct on the Austrian side of the map:

+ The border town "Branau" should be called "Braunau"
(You probably know the city for the guy born there...really infamous city...)

+ "Salzberg" should be "Salzburg"
(Pretty famous city because of Mozart)

[Strela]

Thanks KAreil, I will get those corrected.

You may want to add to the Bolt 10.0 Changelog what the recommended Optional Rules are for Bolt 10.0. It can be confusing knowing whether the recommended optional rules are still Bolt 5.3, vanilla HPS D85, vanilla WDS D85 or what is in the scenario description for Bolt 10.0. For example, helicopter blocking is still checked for 10.0, even though helicopters are now abstracted. And it is not that clear - at least to me - whether one should use alt assault, artillery set-up and artillery/airstrikes by map in Bolt 10.0.
