Campaign Structure

[Seeme]

When I talk, the No one respones to a topic anymore. Lol.

[Newbie.]

Hmm, what about a basic 'Tutorial' Mission for the Soviet's based in the Invasion of Poland? I've always wanted to see that in any MOD.

[Werwolf]

you guys raised some pretty good suggestions...all we need to do now is integrate the missions themselves with unit tutorials, like in vCOH. here's my idea as an example:

for the Ostheer:

<Intro of events from Operation Barbarossa up to Siege of Leningrad>
Mission 1: Strangling Lenin (Siege of Leningrad)
Goal: Leichte Feldhaubitze Artillery tutorial - Master the use of precision artillery strikes, fire-support and counter-battery fire.
Main Objectives:
- capture all 4 strategic points.
- destroy 5 tank factories.
- destroy the main food depot.
- eliminate 8 artillery emplacements.
- eliminate all 4 large static emplacements.
Secondary Objectives:
- defend artillery from aerial attacks. (Luftwaffe Anti-Aircraft Badge)
- defend forward observation post from partisan attacks. (Close Combat Badge)

Personally campaign-wise I'd like to see something containing both vCoH base building type missions and a few more small scale ToV type ones aswell. Might aswell have the best of both worlds.

this is somewhat what I was thinking of, I would love to see Ostheer/Soviet campaigns that are as long as the Opposing Fronts ones and have "the best of both worlds", but in the fun perspective I would really love to see a Prequel to the Tiger-Ace TOV campaign, in other words, the chance of controlling Hauptmann Voss' Tigergruppe on the Eastern Front, in a way of capturing the idea of how they really became one of the best tank crews on the Eastern Front.


Btw Werwolf, I like the idea of that Ostheer mission in Leningrad

Thought I might add that Hauptmann Voss from Tiger ace is the Commander in OMG Campaign. Also the gunner (I think, Sch something is his name) is in the Normandy Campaign (He's the guy that kills the Captain, later being killed in Autry).

I agree , it shouldnt all be base building , but if there is an eastern fronts campaign , IT NEEDS BASE BUILDING MISSIONS. if it has none then it will end up more like dawn of war 2 which is terrible.

Dawn of War 2 *Sigh*

 Wish it was like Dawn of War the 1st series ( Including soulstorm)
 
 But the campaigns for both army best place 1 or 2 main heroes what do you think?

[InkvizitoR_51rus]

Certainly, little that means my opinion, but I will say. Let us do without a transatlantic delirium. you will not be able to contain all of this war in one company. I suggest to divide it into a few parts and produce in turn.

1  Blickrig- summer company of 1941, sudden assault on the USSR. Chaos, disorder, surroundings of soviet troops, first fight with T-34, defensive of Smolensk, battle for Moscow.

2 Stalingrad- defensive on approaches, barrage detachments NKVD (but shooting were rare, almost always soldiers were returned back, often treated shots in air), fights for every meter of earth, heroic defensive of Stalingrad, surroundings and elimination 6 armies of German.

3 Kursk battle- defensive of 3 lines of strengthening (it is possible to create even missions on creation of strengthening and mining), counterblows of soviet tank corps, breach of the last border of defensive (Prokhorovka)  the German troops of SS, largest tank battle under Prokhorovkoy, surroundings of the German tank divisions of SS, battle for Kharkov.

4 Forcing of Dnepr- battle for Ukraine, liberation of Kiev and other cities.

5 Operation of Bagration- the brilliant planned operation of giving orders to the USSR and Stalin in strict secrecy. Liberation of Byelorussia one quick as lightning blow.

6 Germany, Poland and Berlin- liberation of Poland, battles in Germanium, assault of Zelovskikh of heights, battle for Berlin.

Can I help, missions are created in the editor of maps?

Mates, I don't get it... So when is EF placed in time? In years 1941-1945, or just 1944? In vCoH it's easy to guess, but in EF?
I think that making "1941-45" campaign is not so good as it seems. Leningrad, Stalingrad, Kursk, Berlin... You want all of them in one campaign. Just look at vCoH campaigns - US and Brits campaign is not "whole war campaign". Soviet campaign should focus on one, maybe two big battles - let's say Stalingrad and Kursk, or last 12 months of war - operation Bagration and straight through the Poland to Berlin.

[InkvizitoR_51rus]

You misunderstood me. I said that it would be better to split the company into several smaller ones. Company about 1941, the company has about Stalingrad, Kursk, about the company and so on.

Apologies for not making further research
Sorry for the trouble

This is nonsense, and not a movie. Units of the NKVD had already existed. Rifles were many. And most importantly, the Soviet troops fought a defensive war, but not offensive. The Soviet soldiers in Stalingrad, no rifles, they were given automatic "PPSH" and flamethrowers for urban fighting. The fighting there were in each house.The Germans fought for one house, more than Poland, but for one street more than the whole of France. The one who smarter and smarter. Very important was the unarmed combat, our soldiers used a sharp spade. The Germans did not like the melee, and all the forces wanted to avoid. In Stalingrad, several Soviet divisions kept the whole German army.

.. I see. Looks like another 1 in a trash bin

I propose to use the beautiful moments and ideas from the Soviet and Russian films.
