bb: I'm close, but not there yet (21). Yeah, in Russia/FSU, I think its 18, but few people really care. Abandoned-no, I'm still working on Manilla. But very slowly. ;D As they say, now I'm really in school (which starts next week for me incidentally). Anyways, the mod, as SouyzUnion itself, are still progressing on their projects... but quietly. I think we will see some good works yet. Now is a good time to slowly catch up on missed content. Would love to see some Eastern Front maps for GZM from you BTW, Moscow calling?

I made one map and released it, did you lose it? I'm working in two diferent things now, a chapter to germans in early war to GZM, but this work is in standby cause I'm not totally used with GZM, also I usually find hard to make historical missions,,, but I'm also working in a little soviet chapter to PZWF... dont know if I'll finish both.

Salla- Just finished yesterday; lots of fun. Both sound good, though I prefer GZM's gameplay to PZWF.

Yes, that map is in serious need of an update. In part, it was created before much of the 7th version was available for use (objects/units; campaign context). Hoping simeo will get around to reworking these.

I believe the core team is working pretty well on the new release (see post #346), which will probably come next year. Not much info being released for now...

I cant remember when was the last time I got so irritated with BK, but today I always get mad with the mission about Suomossalmi (USSR campaign, 1st Winter War chapter). Very bad terrain, interminables attacks and a last and impossible objective really killed my patience, I'm wondering if anyone here could beat this mission...?

Well, the Russians did get their asses kicked in the winter war I think i read somewhere that this mission is doomed to fail..

Well, I know the Russians were doomed in this battle, but I received a order to brake the encirclement, when I try to brake it hordes of Finlanders attack my forces. I dont know, meaby is necessary to do something to receive a new order or anything. Anyone here played this mission?
@sj: I think you are talking about the random missions, but is true, the quality of the maps is irregular: some are masterpieces others are very bad.

To complete the Suomussalmi mission you'll have to break the encirclement and escape to the north of the town. I don't remember when this order comes though, maybe when you take some amount of losses or you hold the town for some time (or maybe when all the Soviet forces trying to break the encirclement from the east get defeated). I don't like that mission myself.
Stalingrad missions (in both Soviet and German campaigns) are difficult because they almost require you to lose experienced core units. Soviet one also depends on luck (how much AT guns survive the air attacks, etc.)

Thanks Yuritch. Well I`m not sure if I have forces to brake the encirclement. I`ll add a screenshot later, so you guys can see the extension of my problem.

Ok, so here is a screenshot. Tell me if it make any sense: the bodies are from Finlanders squads. I kill then and they keep entering in the casamate, after I finally could destroy the casamate the Finlanders started to come from everywhere... I dont know it must have a secret exit...
