troubled 2nd North mission

[grossdeutschland]

Hello there!

Many of you have already played and finnished Mission Kursk, I have just bought it and started playing. And I tell you - I have litterally fallen in love with this add-on. I reckon it is the best RTS entertainment on the market!

I have got a little problem regarding the second north mission. I am supposed to capture both Saborovka and Kashara villages. I have done the first one the second one is troubled one. Instructions clearly say - I have to be careful. Well, I am. I have managed to destroy every single AA, AT and other threat thanks to FW 190. But no matter how careful I am, objective gets failed as soon as approach mentionsed village, with either tanks or infantry. Any idea of what am I doing wrong?

BTW. I have managed to capture the stranded tigers - could it be the reason?

Hi,

Glad you like the game, hope it will keep you hooked to the end!

As far as Mission 2 North is concerned, the only way you can fail this mission is if you lost all your core tanks (i.e. the 8 tanks with experience). So it may be that in the process of clearing up Kashara you lost the last of them.

You can always stop the mission at any moment by driving the liaison officer back to Bobruisk near the supply hangar.

Thanks for your promt reply, but unfortunatelly your suggestions do not seem to be working. I have got all my core units as I know how precious they are throughout the game.

The officer you mentioned I have not got, unless you meant the one from the commander truck.

Btw, I have managed to gain some success, by clearing the village from Ruskies, got all 4 of my northern tanks moved to village, few half tracks with infantry too, eventhough I cleared surrounding area from mines objective does not seem to be reached.

Anyway, I noticed one thing. As soon as I move few half tracks or infantry at once - as would in real battle (I managed to capture the village with only a single panzer under heavy artillery barrage and luftwaffe support) the objective faills Do you think objective faills for reason? Any other suggestions?

I am desperate and have not got a clue how to carry on.

Oh doh! I read at first it was the mission that failed... ;D

Ok this is perfectly normal, as events unfold the Kashara objective is cancelled by your Corps HQ and you get new orders assigned to you. There's nothing wrong on your part and no way around it.

Just keep following the new orders and all will be fine.

Hello there,

sorry for not replying earlier, but have been a bit busy. Your suggestion works and have a great time in defeating ruskies which involve a lot of swearing and cursing.

Anyway, I have got a German authentic mod instaled in Kursk and I know all units involved in operation Zittadelle should be bearing their original names like Grossdeutschland, LAH, Totenkopf ..... Apart from aircraft bearing a Swastika on their fin tail I can not see any significant changes. Any idea what is wrong?

Hi,

Glad you sorted Mission 2. I am sure there will an abundance of swearing and cursing as you progress through the campaign

You will need to check the file path for the German Authentic mod. Make sure that the pak file is installed in the Mission Kursk\Data directory.
