Eastern Front / Czechoslovakia crisis

« on: July 29, 2014, 07:32:56 PM »

From the Wikipedia page:

"In 1938, Adolf Hitler demanded control of the Sudetenland. Britain and France ceded control in the Appeasement at the Munich Conference, ignoring the military alliance Czechoslovakia had with France. In 1939, the remainder ("rump") of Czechoslovakia was invaded by Nazi Germany and divided into the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia and the puppet Slovak State. Much of Slovakia and all of Subcarpathian Ruthenia were annexed by Hungary. Poland occupied Zaolzie, an area with Polish minority, in October 1938."

So, in 2014, what's your opinion? Was Hitler justified in claiming the Sudetenland? Should France and the UK have stiffened and stood by Czechoslovakia?

Mapping / Another stupid question

« on: July 27, 2014, 05:36:49 PM »

So I wish to make some maps, and, if there good enough, post them here. I wish to use relics stock maps as a reference point. So I downloaded corsix and got a missing dll file error. So I used the dll fixer, and got the file. Here's the stupid question: where do I put this file?

Mapping / Question about stamps

« on: July 01, 2014, 04:12:10 AM »

So I have this great idea for a map, but it requires one of relics smaller maps. I extracted the map using corsix, and installed the smap fixer patch.  However, when I try to paste the map, all I get are the outlines for objects, splats ect. What am I doing wrong?

Eastern Front / Greatest accomplishment or biggest failure

« on: August 15, 2013, 02:27:44 PM »

I have been pondering this for a while and I realize that while the tiger 1 was a rather effective tank, was it also partly the reason for Germany's downfall? It cost 250,800 RM consumed plenty of petrol, resources, manpower, and most importantly there were only 1,347. A panzer 4 cost 90,000 RM, a panther roughly 110,000 RM.  In addition, the Germans had no engine capable of powering the 56.9 tonnes beast.  So if the Germans had not produced the Tiger, maybe perhaps produced hetzers, panzer 4 and 5s, or even the stug 3s (4s were more defensive, if I remember correctly) would the war have had a different outcome?

Mapping / Need help with worldbuilder

« on: August 11, 2013, 06:15:30 PM »

I don't know if this is the right place to put this question, but I am trying to make a map with the worldbuilder.  My problem is that every time I try to change the mod to eastern front, it still loads "blitzkrieg" because I have that mod as well.  (And the blitz mod sucks, unbalanced, and not fun). I want to change it to eastern front, so I went into the .info file in notepad and replaced "blitzkrieg" with "eastern_front" and nothing changed.  In the debug window it still says MOD -- Using MOD 'blitzkrieg'.  Is there a way to change it to eastern front. and sorry in advance if this post is in the wrong spot.
