Optional Victory Conditions

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Optional Victory Conditions

Post by IdahoNYer »

Looking to start another PBEM and was wondering where I can find the optional victory conditions I've heard about that have the game ending in May 45?

Is that the only change, and early ending?

thanks in advance

Hi Ed,

Have u downloaded the newest betapatch?
When u choose scn, see top one in the pic, it should be availble as a seperate scn.

As too changes. yes i believe that only changes are end date and Victory condition, in comparison to the standart scn.

Hope it helps,

Rasmus

Here's the main screen. Note the patch and the .exe version. Is this correct?

U dont need to buy the expansion, no. I dont have it. What worries me about ur pic Ed, is that it says exe file version is 1.04.11 Here is mine:
It says 1.06.13 on both. U sure the update went correct? any way u could go into the HD and then into the game and scn folder to check if the file is actually there.

Hope it helps,

Rasmus

Thanks Rasmus - I thought that might be a glitch. Why? I have no idea. Update supposedly went fine. I may have to do a full reinstall.

strange......

thanks again!

One more thing Ed. I just noted that the arrows in the top on the scn selection screen. On my screen/pic they both points down. On urs up. Have u tried and press em/scroll up and see if the alt vp scn hides up atop?

Doesnt solve the lack of exe file update that sounds importand too tho.

Kind regards,

Rasmus

Rasmus - I checked the arrows....that would have been too easy.

Just re-patched with an official patch and no luck, the .exe is still the same...
