PzC Eastern Front Titles and Map Mod

[larsonney]

For pure maneuver and offensive power for both sides, I like K'42 the best. Both sides get to attack. The Soviet attacks, if well done, will give the Axis fits (the Rumanians are holding a fair amount of front in this one, in the big campaign anyway), and the German Panzer Divs can slice up the Soviet units, once they are released into action.

K'43 has a lot of interesting actions, but is definitely slower paced. There is room for maneuver, but with the snow on the ground, things move along more slowly.

M'44 has some actions for the Germans, but it is mostly about the Soviets crushing the Germans. Although the Germans can put up a fight, it is even tougher here than in reality for the Germans, to keep things together in the big one.

I can't answer the question about MapMod however.

Hi Mike!

I agree with Rick-although I do like Kharkov '43 and it's wide openness...movement is slow, but you have vast stretches of your line that have no troops to hold...makes road junctions critical, especially with the snow. The new unit icons and map on Kharkov '43 are sooo much better than the old stock versions, imo.

On the map mod question...I'm pretty sure you can still download those from Jison's site-I  know he doesn't update them anymore but they are still available, as well as Volcano Man's unit art-I can't play without them! 

Cheers, Jon
