Panzer Battles Demo

Post by Samurai9155 »

I have just installed the Panzer Battles demo and I can't use the 2x guns on the (8,9) hex.

When I select them (yellow border highlighted) and press "CTRL" key, move my cursor to the hex with the "plane" as indicated on the guide, the target dialog doesn't appear.

I can't also move the 2x guns, but I'm able to move the 2 other infantry units who are on the same hex.

Is it a bug or if there is something I don't do correctly?

Good Afternoon (or maybe Good Morning depending where you are).

Might need a little more context... That is, which scenario? I'm guessing the Getting Started one?
I presume you mean you can't use the 2x guns in the (8,9) hex.

There will likely be a message down in the bottom left of the screen telling you why you can't target the hex (10,6?)

To move the artillery units, you first have to select them and put them in "Travel Mode" - Command Menu or Ctrl+T Hotkey or this toolbar button:

They are "towed" artillery so putting them in Travel Mode indicates they are "hitched up" to their transport.

Hi Andy,

Thank you for your answer!

Actually, your colleague Carlos helped me solved the problem. I sent an email to your support email address and he sent me a file (PBKursk_Southern.pdt) that I needed to copy to the \Data folder (overwriting the original file).

Thank you both of you for quick reply on a Saturday, this is an amazing customer service!
