1.08 for the german SC 2 version?
Boron replied to Boron's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
So the Kalypso patch will not work with my version of SC 2? That would be most annoying. Or will the Kalypso 1.08 german patch also work with the German SC 2 version from Most Wanted Games which are now bankrupt afaik? -

I bought the german retail Strategic Command 2 version from mostwantedgames. The german 1.06 Patch seems buggy, my whole SC gets pink with it Here an example: Since the english patch is about 10 mb larger where there maybe forgotten some graphic files? Or is this a driver problem on my side?

This map looks familiar :)

Oh it is from Slitherine. I have their old game Chariots of War. Seems they try a new concept, i just checked their homepage and it seems they did not yet release Legion 2 and i wonder if they release it at all. Maybe they decided to use a different game concept. Because afaik Spartan and Troy were still almost like chariots of war and legion 1 and my guess would be that they intended to be legion 2 like that too. I never liked their build model though, it was like civilization but worse. Since RTW and the addon Barbarian Invasion got released in the time period when they wanted -
It would also help a lot for total conversion mods i think. Then someone could for example maybe make a battletech or star wars mod. I did not mention it yet, the ability to add new units is missing too i think. Or is this already possible? This way someone could e.g. maybe diversify ships more, then you have cruisers, carriers, submarines, destroyers, battleships, and light and heavy cruisers. Or you could split the luftwaffe into 5 units instead of 2: Marine Bombers, Stukas, Tactical Bombers, Strategic Bombers and Fighters. The possibilities would be unlimited . The SC 2 engine

And OT 3 requests for a future patch: Request 1: Allow the game to run in window mode. This way while your enemy does his turn you can read in a forum, play another game etc. . Currently you can Alt+Tab but i have noticed that if i do not Alt+Tab back before my opponent submits his turn the game gives a retrival error then and needs to be rehosted. Request 2: Enable a Chatlog . Request 3: Could the Western Allies transport be eventually made less MM-Intensive? That you can deploy US and GB troops everywhere when they are built, but if you deploy them e.g. in France you just pa

First let me state that the editor is already great . There are some things that could be improved though. Issue 1: Annoying Micromanagement when doing changes to costs/combat values etc. for an unit for all countries. Very often you want to modify units for all countries or at least 90% of the countries at once, like e.g. giving all Armies +1 soft defence. Currently you have to do this exactly 20-30 times for all 20-30 countries. Suggestion: Allow to select mutliple countries at once through shift or ctrl + leftclick. This way you can then easily select all countries or all min
