Sad that if Im good I got less scenarios and that I miss the prototype reward from old PG2.

That's the main complaint so far. Do very well in the campaign and it will end up to be a short one.

Then bump it up to General or Field Marshal.

So therein lies the replayability factor...play the game again but delay taking the final objective to get marginal victories so you can play the scenarios you missed....

Thats always the dliema - do we allow a branching mission tree which means on any one play through you only see a subset of teh content we created or do we keep it on rails and make sure you see everything we have done. Its tricky because people want both - replayability and to see everything :)

As a total newbie I would love to have your problems

But maybe playing them to get better may help better :D

Yup ;O) Practice is everything, the more you play the better u understand the rytm and flow of the battlefield. I startedto play strategy games 1972. But I always up for more learning. You never reach the ceiling. (roof, bad speller)

Well at the end of the 2nd scenario one time I got a brand new tank out of the blue as an award.. though it did not look like a prototype.
The prototype idea was fun. But there are bonus units it would seem.

Why not let you choose where to branch?

I've received a couple of free "elite" units. Unlike my normal gray units, these guys are decked out in camo. I'm not sure exactly what I did to deserve these units, but they are pretty cool.

A decisive victory will grant you to the maximum of three elite units in the whole campaign.

Im sure no unit was out of combat for a year at the time in ww2 for germany so I guess they fought some where. And as a victorious Army you push forward and fight on places that you not fight when not so successfull or on the retreat. Only if the game is a General simulation I can understand that u been posted on different fronts and even out of command (example Guderian) if you been to successfull / disatrous or insulted Hitler in any way. That was my popint of wiev in old PG2 and still now in this Gem.
