Upgrade for "Battle of Caporetto"

Recommended Posts

I will be releasing an upgrade or patch for my "Battle of Caporetto" campaign. I've included three German Jastas and one ground attack unit to the "usable" list. Also I've fixed and organized both the Config.ini and DATA.ini. Now when selecting a Nation, Austria will appear in the menu. When selecting "Austria" you will be able to use only the Austrian aircraft. Selecting Germany will allow you to use only the new German units. Before as you all know Germany was all the enemy aircraft. There was no Austria in the selection. Anyway it's fixed and works great.

 

Here are some pics for the "German" units

The identity of these Jastas is a bit iffy. There's not much info out there about them. From the research I've done I've used my best guess.

 

This Version 2.0 patch ( Expansion Pack 1) will be an easy install. I promise.

Quack, thank you for the update. I'm testing now both the campaign and a new medals pack for Austria and Italia to use in your campaign (and hopefully in other Austro-Italian campaigns). I was planning to release the medals pack in two versions: one with your "Germany as Austria" names and other with Austria instead Germany in your names (example: Austria_Pfalz....etc), but I'll change the pack to your new way. What are the new country names? I want to make the new medals pack to be as easy to use as possible.

Also I'd like to know what is the location of the files for FE2, because I have FE Gold. Thank you.

I'll be posting a Version 2.0 for the " Battle of Caporetto" campaign. I've included German air units and edited the Config.ini and DATA.ini to make Austrian and German aircraft separate. I cleaned up the Data.ini a bit. It's a bit more organized now. I've added a couple more French AI Escadrilles aswell. New mission text files and new Start and Hangar screens too. In the download section it will be called " "The Battle of Caporetto" Version 2.0". It will be an add-on to your excisting "Caporetto" campaign Version1.0. This one will be a simple install.

 

Here is what will be included:

 

These German units were sent to reinforce the Austrian campaign against the Italians soon after the collapse of the Eastern (Russian) Front. These units would start to appear in September of 1917 and last till the end of February 1918.

 

Jagdstaffeln (fighters):

 

Jasta 1 - Albatros D.V

Jasta 31 - Albatros D.III

Jasta 39 - Albatros D.IIIOAW

 

FeldFleigerAbteilung (ground attack):

 

FFA.2

FFA.14 - All DFWC5

FFA.17 -

FFA.39

 

Kampfgeschwader 4 units (bombers):

 

Kagohl 19

Kagohl 20 - All AEG G.IV

Kagohl 21

Just wanted to share this photo from my "Caporetto" campaign. If your eyes are 20/20 check out the line of Austrian and German aircraft. Intimidating to say the least.
