Yeah..., I suspected it.

Tell you what..., I'll rebuild the thing from scratch, just in case something is borked with that particular scenario.

Meanwhile - maybe you could replace the Kulikovka scenario with some other random one (doesn't matter which one, or what nations) and see if the game still crashes to desktop...(sadly I suspect it will though...)

OK I'll give it a try tomorrow. But why all of a sudden is it crashing? what is happening now that wasnt happening in that last battle?

I'm not quite sure..., but I did some creative things to the last scenario - it was actually edited from the saved game files - and that might just be a no-go...

OK it won't work with other scenario's either. It still crashes.

So logically, that second scenario is the root of it. If you want,I'm willing to start over at the beginning again. You'll just have to avoid making scenario's from savegames.

Yeah, hopefully the edited savegame is what's causeing it..., same setup as before, with regards to nation etc...?

Rgr that!

Had no problems running Icamp's second scenario, so the cause was probably some conflict with the repair phase and the edited savegame...

What did you do in the first, guessing here.
Save before battle ends.
Create a new battle (Scenerio)
Add it to Campaign in Campaign manager
Continue game now when it ends checks updated Campaign Path.

If do it that way the only reason you need his game save file is to see how it went for deciding the next mission.
You can actually tailor the difficulty as you go based on what you see.

Yes - this is the basically idea behind the campaign; as it allows for a dynamic in the progress that is virtually impossible to predict before hand.

I used the saved game because I was lazy - it already had the barb wire in place, the shell damage etc.
