N. Vatutin appears to be missing in the Blau scenario.

Put him back in a future patch please


In scenario editor I see him. He has too low rank to take command of STAVKA, as he is only a GENL. Data shows he was promoted to GENP in 12/42, and GENA in 2/43.

Wait a moment, the calculation is +1 for every unit over 50, right? So 51 is 5, 61 is 15, 71 is 25, 81 is 35 and so on? Is there an additional cost modifier? Because at 82 I would pay 46 for a new FZ and not 36.

Will check math tomorrow. That's how it was supposed to work. Are you playing scenario with 100% Axis production? This affects both limits 50/150.

It's a regular PBEM 260 GC, but started under an older version.

He was Chief of the General Staff by this point. Although that did involve a lot of time in the field as a STAVKA coordinator.

Thanks! I fixed a bug. The limit was not based on total production percentage available as envisioned, but the one "going to the East". That made German fort levels lower than 50/150 in full campaigns, hence higher costs.

Scenario data shows they are set to Frozen 10. Don't know why.

So, basically a 'bug', but not a hard-coded one. Well, I guess I have to play a bit with the editor... once I am back in CY from my 'home-leave' here in DE.

I'm only one game into 1.08, but partisan activity seems normal in it.

It is rather strange dealing with a kind and forgiving Comrade Stalin.

Status: offline 		Best choice is to uninstall all and reinstall from scratch, you could try to install only Don to Danube, then Lost Battles, then 1.08.01. Only one install less and you don't have guarantee everything will be in proper version after the process. Of course backup saves when reinstalling.

Thanks all advice.

Status: offline 		OK it's been a loooooong time since I've played this game. I've noticed that surrounded units can escape, they are not destroyed or surrender. Sometimes they do but many times they rout and move off beyonf my encirclement. Is this a change or have units always been able to skirt away even if surrounded?

It's plausible, since I'm sure no encirclement is absolutely solid some units would be able to escape and try to reform. I just seem to remember that last time I played I was able to destroy the units I had surrounded…but I could be wrong.
