A new patch (v 1.00.04) for Decisive Campaigns: Ardennes Offensive has been released, and you can download it HERE

What's new:

• Fixed graphical rendering issues with the unit stack window and transported units
• Move mode of transported unit in bottom window now shown as “In trans” to make it clear it is in transport and not free to move itself until offloaded.
• Fixed crash with using Group Move on a stack including transported troops
• New rule: March Move Mode halves fuel usage
• LOS info when mousing over hexes now also visible in INSPECT mode (previously only in MOVE MODE)
• The Intermediate Trooptype editor can now give (or reduce) for a trooptype. This allows scenario designers to make dedicated reconnaissance trooptypes.
• Engineers now give a good bonus on entrenchment of other units with them in the same hex
• Engineers now diminish the entrenchment of enemy forces during combat (the more EP saved up the better the result)
• Fixed ‘battle is commencing’ text placement error
• Fixed a crash with auto-movement
• Fixed crash during Init AI phase
• VR Basic Library v43 now available (adds special drop modes to table unit => reinf unit card)
• Table unit => reinf unit card can now enter the map while doing battle (because faulty recon or because special drop mode 1 or 2 is used)
• The above also fixes the bug where german units (by reinf.card) could get mixed up with american units due to being deployed on top of enemy unit (due to bad recon)
• The Table unit=>reinf unit card can now use special drop mode (on top of enemy hexes/units) as well as target a hexlibvar value on the map. This allows for setting custom zones that can be targetted by cards. For example arnhem landing zone or normandy beaches. This basically allows simulating airdrop/amph/rebel uprising of full divisions and many new scenario options for modders/designers. These special modes put the attacker at -50% attack value if directly on deployment found confronting the enemy in that hex.
• Also added dispersion option to Table unit=>reinf unit card (to simulate large scale paradrop or amphibious landings)

Can I update the game and continue my existing campaigns (version v 1.00.02)? Or do I need to start new ones, if I install this patch?

Hi Vic, just wanted to be sure I understand correctly, when you say you 'did not agree' with that suggestion, it is because you dont agree 'in concept' ( as in there will Never be an overrun rule) , or dont agree in detail, as in how exactly the/a fix is made?

Just want to clarify, if my grand campaign is being played in 1.00.02, updated from the day one launch version, that it is safe to update to 1.00.04 and continue playing?
