Thank you for these new mini battles... I tested each one a bit and they're very good... Since you said we can suggest, I'll post a battle that I think would be cool... The "battle of Volomin" is most accurately referred to as the Battle of Wołomin, a key part of the Soviet Prague offensive in 1944, where German and Soviet tanks clashed heavily. During this engagement, the Soviet 3rd Tank Corps was encircled and destroyed by the German 19th and 5th SS Panzer Divisions near Wołomin, with a subsequent attempt by the 8th Guards Tank Corps to relieve them also resulting in heavy losses for the Soviets.

Update is now live! :)

Adds two new missions, details above.

Please note there may be a few bugs. Overlord may also be heavy on the FPS for the first minute or so as you can probably imagine, enjoy! :)

Doctrine selection isn't fully logged yet for these new missions so enjoy the randomness

Just trying to polish up a few things for it. Will be released tomorrow!
cowboyhughes26 9 Oct @ 3:27pm 
can we have the update today pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
jones9272 9 Oct @ 6:39am 
update today ?
SpartanViperz  [author] 3 Oct @ 1:12pm 
@Magnaticos No, the live build should be fine. I've just tested myself and can't see any issues. Ensure you have the DLC and the mod has installed properly. If you're running other mods, that could also be why...
Magnaticos 3 Oct @ 8:10am 
Game crashes while trying to load the Mortain level, is it because the mod isn't updated yet?
SpartanViperz  [author] 30 Sep @ 11:11am 
Thanks for all the love guys! New update should be coming out before the end of next week (want to release before bf6 does :steamhappy: ) and it will contain two new missions!

Incrdibly fun. I made the mistake of saying it was too easy on the first map for the first half hour pushing towards the top of the hill. And God declared that my pride and hubris shall now be punished and I will be put in my place. Victory after 3 hours and 8 minutes on hard.
Ploppenheimer 23 Sep @ 11:33am 
Fantastic mod, brilliant map making!
Chromemustard 16 Sep @ 4:20pm 
Thank you!
THE SHAMBLER 6 Sep @ 3:00am 
Love the Missions! The second Skirmish is Crazy hard! Took me like 3 hours to beat
Universe_CZE 5 Sep @ 2:43am 
Thanks for answer, my bad, it was second map, i never had such problems to win skirmish :D lil try normal diff
SpartanViperz  [author] 4 Sep @ 6:37pm 
@Universe_CZE oof thats rough! Yes for sure, lower difficulty mean the counter attacks are a little less frequent and easier enemy vehicles/infantry being spawned compared to some of the more capable stuff etc.

Would recommend lowering the difficulty if you're struggling :)
Universe_CZE 4 Sep @ 2:58pm 
great mode, i played first map on hardcore, after six hours i gave up, so many counter attacks, so hard :D does
does lower difficulty make it easier? (less counterattacks)
longshlong54 4 Sep @ 4:47am 
dude please add more mission for Americans too , keep them coming man, enjoying it
SpartanViperz  [author] 3 Sep @ 8:48am 
Yeah, I would think so. Unless maybe if you have other mods on which may be interfering or if it didn't install correctly for some reason... but yeah otherwise I would point to the no dlc being the major reason it doesn't work
dumbass2306 2 Sep @ 11:22pm 
@spartanviperz but otherwise the most common reason for this not working would be not having the DLC, right? As opposed to all the other reasons this game crashes lol
SpartanViperz  [author] 1 Sep @ 5:14am 
Honestly no idea, I would have thought you would need the DLC, but someone earlier apparently didn't have either DLC and somehow it worked so I guess let me know how it goes lol
RedMarshal 31 Aug @ 11:46pm 
i dont have airbone do i can still play this
SpartanViperz  [author] 27 Aug @ 4:50pm 
@kampfer91 Thanks, will look into it
kampfer91 27 Aug @ 6:52am 
Can look at Lowlands , Offensive , 8.8 pak ? It not appear when i buy it .
puupy 22 Aug @ 6:33pm 
I love skirmish missions, thanks!
nickski 16 Aug @ 2:48am 
great missions, enjoyed them all!
jones9272 15 Aug @ 1:29pm 
We are ready for the one to go 😂😂!!
SpartanViperz  [author] 13 Aug @ 5:32am 
@Kampfer91 Lets gooo, thank you so much! <3 Feel free to view the Doctrine selection thread to help with this :)

@cowboyhughes26 Probably a few months to be honest. I have one ready to go but I want to release at least one more with it and do a bit of an overhaul to the mod page etc as I introduce missions for other factions.
kampfer91 12 Aug @ 10:34pm 
This is very well-made , i will write a unit guide for this mod .
cowboyhughes26 12 Aug @ 4:46pm 
how much longer till new missions come out
Your Doll 12 Aug @ 10:42am 
@spartanviperz I'll try! Thanks! No worries about the delay, life happens.
SpartanViperz  [author] 12 Aug @ 9:21am 
@Your Doll sorry for the delay, not sure to be honest, I would try to redownload the mod since it seems like it may not have installed correctly.
Your Doll 7 Aug @ 4:49pm 
Ello I get some fat errors when I try to play the lowlands map or the last gamble map? The other one works though.

single/gls_02_ger_lib_skrimish/gls_1944_12_ardenne_bulge:0 is undefined!

Any idea?
SpartanViperz  [author] 26 Jul @ 4:21pm 
@NoShoesBrad Thank you for your kind words :) More missions are on the way!
NoShoesBrad 26 Jul @ 2:25pm 
Right having now played your missions extensively I can give proper feedback, absolutely phenomenal work,

I've seen it mentioned elsewhere in these comments that they are better than the developers missions and I couldn't agree more, there was a very deliberate and themed attention to the way you built and decorated the maps, the units you put on those maps and the flow of battle that takes places as you progress up the map, whereas the original missions we got felt very thrown together with an almost "F*** you, there's your stupid skirmish missions" attitude behind them, yours felt very much like they were made to be enjoyed and challenging at the same time,

really well done, if you intend to make more of these or some for the other factions then I intend to play them, you should be proud of yourself
Flepppkek 26 Jul @ 3:51am 
so, finished the second and third missions without DLC - no bugs, crashes or any strange things. clean game, no other mods, no file changes, version 1.053.0, hardcore
may be useful for some SP players to know, or maybe it was just a lucky day - worth to try)
SpartanViperz  [author] 21 Jul @ 2:38pm 
Its not just the units though, the whole environments are built using Liberation or Airborne content. And then yeah you have vehicles and units that were introduced for both US and Germany with Liberation and Airborne lol.

So yeah I don't even know how it works but I mean fair enough. I guess if you do run into crashes/glitches then you know why but otherwise have fun :D
Flepppkek 21 Jul @ 2:32pm 
the campaign works smoothly without DLS, maybe it skips on the unit without errors
SpartanViperz  [author] 21 Jul @ 2:14pm 
bruh... I have no idea how it can even work with no dlc... Liberation especially...
Flepppkek 21 Jul @ 1:22pm 
I don't have any dlc and I've finished playing to the point of medium tanks. Thanks for the answer, I'll check the next missions
SpartanViperz  [author] 21 Jul @ 4:00am 
@Fleppkek which dlc don’t you have? I wouldn’t have thought you would be able to play it without the dlc but either way reinforcements shouldn’t be tied to this. Mission one usually has them a little later though, usually appearing as you take the Artillery and Heavy tank point

Thanks for your kind words on the maps
Flepppkek 20 Jul @ 11:32pm 
the maps look really good, you definitely have talent, keep it up
Flepppkek 20 Jul @ 11:26pm 
Is it possible that the bot won't counterattack if I don't have the DLC?
Mission 1 hardcore off doct
SpartanViperz  [author] 20 Jul @ 7:21am 
Thanks! New missions are definitely being worked on!
coporado 19 Jul @ 9:43pm 
Thank you for these great missions! Would love to see additional missons.
cowboyhughes26 11 Jul @ 8:27pm 
please add more missions
SpartanViperz  [author] 4 Jul @ 11:08am 
@H. Gisco Much Appreciated <3
H. Gisco 4 Jul @ 7:44am 
Gotta give it to you man, these missions feel vanilla, the doctrines and maps are amazing in general, blood in the low lands is my new favorite mission in the whole franchise theres something about it. all the love keep it up brother
longshlong54 29 Jun @ 12:20pm
