1939 Storm over Europe for Breakthrough!


Recommended Posts

Hi

With the release of patch 1.03 and the announcement for our 1870 Franco-Prussian War campaign, I just want to point out that a lot of improvements to other campaigns were also included, and especially to this WWII campaign.

Also, thanks for all your feedback which has been a great help here. :)

This should now give the Axis a better chance of victory.

Here are the changes:

- If the Soviets carry out the Winter War then when Finland joins the Axis some Finnish units will deploy at half strength; whereas if the Winter War isn’t fought then they will deploy at full strength.
