I have checked and tested 158th Brigade Group for the first two missions (I ran out of time.) Here is the exact file I used for the test. I have changed a few small items to try to improve it, plus I included core units this time.

Dmitry M. was an early map-maker, and left us a lot of good missions. I think he was really advanced, considering that he was one of the earliest. Some of his scenic effects are fantastic!
I've decided to put together a chapter of 7 of his loose German missions. It spans from Greece to Normandy. The setups have been left pretty much as is, although I did make a few changes for historical accuracy. Dmitry was often pretty much on the money with his units.

Hi Louis, nice to see your new works, but the stalingrad chapter is basically the same "Stalingrad Way of Death" released by me a long time ago. Do you want a suggestion? Why not convert Leon's Operation Wotan to a realistic year, lets say 1941-42?

That's a thought.
I have been going through my vanilla Blitzkrieg and RT missions, trying to sort them into playerside and year. I know I have about 6-8 of the Operation Wotan missions, but I don't think I have the complete chapter.
(Edit: Oops! I just checked, and I do have the complete chapter.)
What was wrong with the year of Operation Wotan? Besides, I get the impression that 1941 is not too popular. You actually have to use your AT guns.

You actually have to use your AT guns.As a "Historical Accuracy Police Officer" you should know the only chance the Germans had to win the war was destroing the Red Army in 1941. ;D OW technology starts in 1943, if I'm not wrong, and the battle goes unitill 1945, more or less. I believe the best storyline was to start in 1941, in the context of Typhoon, and finish it in the winter of 1942 (or summer of 1943). I prefer 1941-1942, but you're right it seems people usually enjoy 1944-1945 missions. BTW, why we dont have a good chapter about the conquest of France in 1940? |

bb, I think Operation Wotan would be considerably less popular set in 1941-42. I could convert it for you if you wish, but it would be just one more of my many projects that keep getting in the way of each other.
France 1940: I am putting together an RT chapter of the best missions I have found in BK for Germany in France for 1940. It starts with the assault on an (unnamed) Belgian fortress and proceeds through to the attack on Boulogne. (RT because it needs the 37mm_pak_usa for the German AT gun.)
I localized all the missions for the 7th Panzer Division because I felt they best represented the situation, and besides, everyone knows who Rommel was.
I created a new mission I felt was essential, the Crossing of the Meuse river. However, this has some kind of weird bug in it that neither I nor altheogre can figure out. I've wasted hours and hours trying to get it to work. I think I will drop it and just release the rest.
It just needs a little more testing and then it can be released. This should be the next thing available from me.
