I'm partially through an A-A Campaign. Would this patch or when the final 1.0.65 is released require a restart?
Thanks.

[colberki]

I restarted.

no, it should not disturb any campaign, but mend errors that stopped players so far.

Thanks.
How will the change in Motorized Infantry from Division to Brigade size affect the units? My guess is that the maximum strength points will be less but I could be wrong.
Thanks for any info.

[Ronald Wendt]

Hello,

Germany


All Inf.Div.(mot.)-> Brigade size

this refers to Minsk Pocket only and then also just if you start new. The savegames are not affected. The structure of the text just misleads one to think this was globally done.

Please make the v.1.0.65 release available. I just checked the members club and found there is no download available for this fix you indicated.

In the v1.0.1 the range of trucks etc. is increased. Will the units' fuel usage go up in that turn or will the extra hexes be "free"?
Thanks.

[Ronald Wendt]

Hello,

we only increased the rang - not the amount of fuel. If you play with detailed supply you will still have the same maximum range before a unit has to be resupplied. But during a turn you can get a bit further now.

Regards,

[stormbringer3]

Thanks for the information.
Any thoughts on when 1.01 will be official? I'm waiting to restart my A-A Campaign until it is released.

currently there are reports from players that 1.01 solved the problems they encountered in the A-A campaign, but there is one case in which this seems not have worked.

We would like to settle this case until we say its save.
