Just finished the Kursk campaign by Cameronius!
- - - SPOILERS BELOW - - -
The battles are big and thus takes a while to complete, but it's also the kind of campaign I personally like (- I'm fully aware some people want smaller stuff).
The maps are excellent, the deployment of AI and Aux forces is also fine IMHO. All scenarios of the campaign work good, the Russian counterattack against the bridge scenario is expertly set up in how it uses the river and deployment zones for both German and Soviet forces.
Briefings are fine!
Most of my losses were due to AI arty and air and the infernal anti-tank guns. Especially when dug into a trench they were problematic. Stacking of units, something I often avoid, didn't seem to be such a drawback when located in a trench either. I noticed some units were reduced to 0 speed, probably to ensure that they would remain in place defending.
The counterattacks by large numbers of T-34s look scary but tended to end in a massacre of Soviet armour - as long as you can keep some distance to the AI led tanks you can pick them off...
...this didn't work in the Prokorovkha scenario when I underestimated the numbers of T-34s and lost some core tigers to T-34s that got too close. Worst was the Red Air though my core got pounded those Shturmoviks...
Ammo carriers were essential to restock AP ammo, smart to include in the original core.
I'd like to replay the campaign with a Swedish core force, but it would probably be neccessary to re-route the campaign flow to add a few scenarios in order to build experience for that last Prokarovkha scenario...
Good Job on the campaign!
Kursk Campaign!
