Blitzkrieg in Europe!

Generals,

The decicive moment has come! The enemy has finally revealed his plans. It is an upcoming major offensive in the heart of Europe. The peace efforts were in vain, we have to accept the reality: The war is coming! Here are the operation details:

Operation Blitzkrieg 1939

A historical scenario in 1939, shortly before the outbreak of the war. Similar to the scenario in the Mediterranean all countries start with existing armies, research and province upgrades. This map is not fairly balanced, instead it depicts the situation before the war. Some countries have an advantage, some urgently need certain resources, some have a powerful army or advanced research. You have account for the strengths and weaknesses in your strategy to survive the upcoming Blitz.

Furthermore, the HQ reports the following fixes and improvements:

  • Militia improved: Reduced the upkeep from 150 to 50 grain, increased defence value to 1.5, increased hitpoints to 15, added forest and hills bonus of 75%
  • Units no longer stop shortly before arriving in attack range.
  • On some maps national flags were exchanged.
  • In the newspaper all province names are now clickable.
  • Scrolling on the map has been improved.
  • The ranked information in the info window of opened rounds is now displayed correctly.
  • In the tutorial some tasks and views have been improved.
  • The morale of the troops is now shown in different colors.
  • Unit morale is now correctly displayed after improving it with gold.
  • The attack animation of ships has been improved.
  • You now get a popup in the game when you have lost and not only when the round is over.
  • You can now disable Naval Bases.
  • Small improvements were made to all maps.
We hope you are satisfied with the changes and that you are once more ready to defend Europe in the new scenario!

Look at it like this, the CV is probably a complex problem, to take your mind of it for a while they offer you other updates. The longer the CV is under scrutiny the more they will try to appease you with other updates.

*looks over there* Hey look they are jingling their keys! lets go look in bewilderment ! :3

Am I the only one who thinks this new map should have teams?

The past is a foreign country.

Maybe must have team for kind of coherence and equality ?

Teams for it to be historically accurate. If it's a historical map, Italy shouldn't be allowed to attack Germany!

I am disappointed they didn't team nations up, i'm also disappointed they didn't release CVs. I guess the longer the dev them the better they get.

Remember this map was just released, they aren't done with it yet. They will probably have to fix various bugs and if you start a forum post of the idea to have it require historical alliances they might just do it while they are working on the final touches to the map.

I agree.

Has anybody tested out all the 10 nations yet? Why is there never a list of best to worst? I would guess that Germany would be the best nation. Not sure, which would be the worst.

I'm playing as Germany, as you can imagine it is the most advanced but has -59 oil production.

Everyone would rush the good nations then and not play the other ones.

What's the fun in that? I'd prefer to try a more challenging nation and have a close loss rather than play as a nation that can easily steamroll everyone without much effort, at least in a normal game with the relative lack of skill in the average player-base. If gold rewards were ridiculously high, then maybe this might happen, but I think variety in the balancing of the nations can bring this game great good.

The balance is key in mastering the art of CoW.
