FINLAND Mission: On NORMAL, I chose the same settings, and sent my KV tanks against the central island in a pack, with one going up the road on the left side and cutting toward the center. The middle island took out a couple of my tanks and I took out their AT guns. Then I had infantry follow my tanks and take the island. My troops got 1/3 of the way up the map, making progress against light AT guns and HMGs, and got stopped. On the right side with the craggy areas they got stopped by a mortar nest. I sent my remaining tanks against the tanks gathered on the left edge road and my tanks got wiped out. I sent my last tank against the second, middle goal area and enemy AT fire knocked it out. Maybe I could sneak my officer along the right side of the map to get the enemy mortar there with my artillery signal gun. I'm not sure if you can win on NORMAL, because it seems that you basically have to use a limited number of KVs with 76 mm guns to repeatedly storm strong enemy emplacements.

FINLAND mission: On HARD, I chose all KV tanks, Spetznatz, and Russian Rifles to make a Soviet-only team, and chose night. I sent tanks along the west edge with some infantry support and they got stopped almost halfway up the map, at about the latitude where the first enemy flagpoint is. They got stopped by a line of two enemy tanks (A Marder and a T3 Panzer tank) with a little support. I sent a tank along the middle east side of the map and it got knocked out by enemy AT cannons. I sent a spetznatz squad along the far eastern side and it had success almost clearing a path to the frozen lake, taking out a canon and two HMGs, but they eventually got taken down, in part by an enemy cannon. Maybe I should have sent all my tanks at once at the main middle area. It seems hard to fight with just a Soviet team because the KV tanks have good armor but the firepower is so-so, and you might need a recon team with a sniper. My officer's Artillery would be good to use.

(continued from my last message about the RUSSIA defense mission) Regular troops have a weakness that they basically just stay with their commanders, so they aren't good at attacks or diversions like Spetznatz are. Ι forgot that I can use my officer's artillery flare gun. It's a decent weapon against big targets. For some reason, all the infantry units for selection don't fit in my window, or else just barely do - I'm not sure because the top of one sits right above my screen.

For the "Russia" Defense mission with Road to Uman marked on the map. I got crushed on HARD. I beat it handily on Normal as the Soviets with 4 Heavy tanks. You can get 4 total hedgehogs from 2 trucks when the game starts, and there are also trucks with mines. You lose if the enemy takes your main flag. The enemy comes from the central north part and then streams along the NW road and then later toward the northeast, forming a V pattern.On HARD, the enemy starts with some medium tanks and then uses maybe 5 heavy tanks, and you need IS tanks against them or other heavy equipment. Spetznatz soldiers would be OK, and but it's hard for troops to use AT grenades against them. Bazookas work OK, and AT grenades are better than nothing. If you use regular troops, make sure they get some AT grenades from the trucks because they come with like only 2 grenades.

It seems that this Mod has the same missions that you currently find on "Old Boy's Multinational bn". The reason is probably that this Mod was updated in April 2020, whereas the Old Boy's Multinational Bn was updated in October 2020 and must include this update.

I think you need "Old Robz Realism Mod 1.26.7", not the Robz Realism Mod that is linked to.

Each mission set has an Allies version and an Axis one, and is really a pair of missions.
The first two missions are in Greece, the second two are in Russia. Another 2 are in Belgium, another 2 are in Finland, and another 2 are in the Pacific.

I found my mistake, In the description from 13APR20 you says, only in mission 5 and 6 is a wintermission correct? I have think all mission or new mission in the winter.
Old boy  [author] 14 Apr, 2020 @ 4:27pm 
@Fritschie make sure the Mod in your option/mod menu says 13APR. Delete the older mods
Fritschie 14 Apr, 2020 @ 1:35am

OK thank you the author will definitely play
Old boy  [author] 13 Apr, 2020 @ 3:05am 
@КОМИССАР hopefully that's fixed. Updated 13APR20
Old boy  [author] 12 Apr, 2020 @ 6:19pm 
@КОМИССАР my bad, I found the issue. When I extended the map I did not extend the gamezone. The game will end if there is no captain alive in the gamezone which happens to be the bottom part of the map. I will fix and update this in a few hours. I will also recheck my defend mission timings and will look at showing a 5 minute warning to remind you to recapture all the flag points before the game ends. Thanks for your video, it made it easy to see what I need to fix.

hi the author once again today again sat down to play your mod and again I do not understand the reason for the death of an officer my officer was alive he is alive but I was again counted as a loss here is a video from the stream

Old boy  [author] 11 Apr, 2020 @ 6:33am 
@КОМИССАР all good, protect that Captain and i hope you enjoy the mod
ЖеКа 11 Apr, 2020 @ 6:31am 
yes! sorry! I figured out it turns out an officer was killed!
Old boy  [author] 11 Apr, 2020 @ 6:25am 
@КОМИССАР that is strange but I'll look into it.
Can you tell what me what difficulty level you were playing? and if you can remember, when the mission ended did the writing say just 'Failed' or did it mention 'Your were flanked' or 'Your commander has been killed'?
ЖеКа 11 Apr, 2020 @ 6:13am 
my point was not taken and all the commanders were alive but as soon as the enemy tanks appear I am counted as a loss! once again I ask you to review the mission correct it
Old boy  [author] 11 Apr, 2020 @ 6:06am 
@КОМИССАР with these missions be careful not to let the main character/Captain die or let the enemy tanks flank you and capture your start point. I am assuming that's what might have happened.

Thanks Old Boy...I have been using Air missions of war v 1.3 and its pretty cool. Great work as always!
ЖеКа 11 Apr, 2020 @ 3:54am 
hi author I am from Russia I really like this mission but I do not know English well the fact is that I first go to the point where you need to destroy the artillery but suddenly there are enemy American tanks and I am counted as a loss what am I doing wrong explain?
Old boy  [author] 10 Apr, 2020 @ 5:52pm 
@Audie sorry I can't remember, we can look at adding air support.
Audie 10 Apr, 2020 @ 1:32pm 
Also I still swear that the misuc comes from a movie I saw...what is the music your using?
Audie 10 Apr, 2020 @ 1:29pm 
hey Old Boy..Thanks for all the great work...anyway that we could use the air missions mod in your work? would be really cool to call in air support!
