I�ve attached here a 1.02.15Beta hotfix file. This is not an installer, so you have to unzip this file directly into your game folder (Gary Grigsby�s War in the East 2) so it replaces the existing WarInTheEast2.exe file. You may want to rename the older file before you overwrite it in case you want to revert. This version has a fix for the bad isolation bug created in 1.02.14. These isolation issues have been very difficult to address without causing additional issues. Please be on the lookout for situations where units are not being isolated correctly, especially when involving tracing lines of supply via ports. We think we�ve fixed the obvious situations, but there may be some corner cases that still come up. Assuming this version continues to check out, Matrix will likely get an installer built for it in the coming week.

Changes:
v01.02.15 � 15th January 2022
Bug Fixes and AI Improvements
� Areas that should be in supply via ports are showing as isolated (Baltic Islands, cut off ports like Odessa � new bug created in 1.02.14). Fixed.
� Leaders in HQs forcibly displaced were not being killed as often as they should (15% non-isolated/50% isolated). Fixed.
� AI - Axis AI freezes at 33% of movement phase. Fixed.
� AI � Improved Axis Attacking AI so it should not leave large gaps in its lines at the end of its turn.

It makes too many of them. Even when previous attack is failing with an odds that it makes no sense to continue doing them. It basically destroys his CPP and gives free wins for a Soviets.

Glad to see a fix for the large gaps issue - I've just run a Road to Leningrad v the AI where my entire Soviet 11th army invaded Germany on turn 10.

Will there be a beta version option in Steam soon like in WITE1?
I don't have any beta versions in the dropdown in steam.

Is there a way to use the beta with the steam version?
I bought it from the matrix website but really don't want to install it twice (Steam + standalone)

For Steam you can just drop the exe in the folder.

The Ops team is working on making this beta available as an installer on our site as well as a beta on Steam this week.

Regards,
