Did the Gold Treatment help with Minsk 44 ?

[Lowlander]

Keep in mind that the Gold version has Brian Jennings new campaign game.

It included some of the following;
New Minsk '44 Campaign Game by Brian Jennings. Scenario #0623_02_Minsk_CG_Alt is a completely revised campaign game including strategy options and larger forces for both sides. A broader partisan war is also included.

Yes I concur, I am currently playing this scenario as the Germans, and have set advantage at 50% for the Russian AI.
This gives you a better game with a lot more headaches if you want to withdraw from well fortified front lines to a river.
A multitude of partisans turn up behind the lines, a lot more than stock scenarios.
Things were going swimmingly well , however, a lot of German units are crumbling under continuous combat.
Very enjoyable game over varied terrain which is another set of problems.
The SS Panzer Korps are excellent but manoeuvring them into position might be more difficult due to unforeseen blocks.

I forgot to mention Hitler's stand fast orders, which is represented by the fixed units, another little problem.
