As for your assumtion that "10% of the battles in Poland". This is false. I just ran a quick test and the first 4 of a 60 battle LC were in Poland and the fifth was in Norway ( there goes you other assumtion about "there is nothing Norwegian in the German campaign" ). You do pretty good at making an assumtion then writing paragraph after paragraph about it like it's fact

Results may vary. The game is not set up to do the same thing over and over. Someone may indeed get more battles in Poland and none in Norway but there is no set percentage or number

I have a save of the campaign showing the Norwegian battle as number five of a German LC if you're interested

Don

I'm not on this board to smart off Don, so I'll take your word for it. I just figured if I had three battles in 9/39 Poland, and somebody said it IS longer in Poland, then maybe I'm stuck for 6 battles since I already have three in 9/39. All my other LC starts were the same, 2-3 9/39 battles in Poland before I quit. It doesn't seem unreasonable to draw the conclusion I did with that set of information. If I get 6 total Polish battles it will be fact that it's 10% of my 60 battles, but it won't be fact all the time as you make clear (though I had to wonder the period spent in what country and the number of battles weren't constant as well).

I also stated "from what I recall" there were no Norwegian battles and I didn't elaborate on that point in the least.

IIRC I've never had less than 2 battles and never more than 4, in Poland in the 60 LC.

BTW I've never tried 200 battles LC, so that is how you get Norway etc mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!

Bob out

I got norway in 60 battles a few times, but its more probable in the 100 or 200 battles, but its weird to have your panzergrenadiers fighting into mountains, and forests, gerbisjaeger would be a better choice

How about ski troops in the desert?

Trying to figure out just how you recalled there were no Norwegian battles when you never got out of Poland

The more recent games, I never got out of Poland.

I have played winspww2 in only LC's so far. Always with the default amount (at least as far as Germany is concerned). I have played at least twice prior to this particular LC, and on both occasions I spent 2 battles in 9/39 Poland after 1-2 slaughter victories (every completed battle was a slaughter is what I'm trying to say. I may had given up out of boredom in the 2nd battle though, as I saw no sense in fighting in the same month in the same place forever. I certainly didn't go beyond the 3rd battle to find out what happened in the 4th). I cannot say if I bothered finishing that 2nd battle or not, but I'm guessing I did and then found out I was spending a 3rd battle in 9/39 Poland as well.

If you don't like Poland, then set the campaign start date to 5/40 and start in France, or maybe 3/41 for the desert.
