Georgia22 -> Extreme newbie question - Can you pause the start of game (2/17/2022 2:05:52 AM)

Hello,
Have just begun to learn the game. I started the 1941 game to get a look at it all and found (I was playing Soviets) that the game started immediately with the German attack. I need some time to see where my units are, get the lay of the land ect.
Is there a way to open a scenario but not have the Germans immediately attack?

Thanks

No this is turn based game and in the full campaign the Germans get to go first. Also, and most importantly the first German turn, like real life, is a surprise attack.

I should add that maybe mods where the Soviets are strong and more prepared but the Germans will always go first, or should.

You can open the scenario in the editor, switch to the Soviet side with the W button and view your troops before the German attack. You can even change the script and make the Soviet side first, but then the Germans will not be able to attack on June 22, but only next week. If you change the script, it's best to save it under a different name. I once did a scenario where the Russians attack first in July 1941. By the way, please note that if the scenario starts on June 22, then the number and experience of Soviet troops is subject to random changes before the start of the game and will not be the same as indicated in the editor.
