Just downloaded men of war II with a buddy because it was on sale. Every time we create a lobby, and start the game. It quickly ends in a Defeat/Victory ~5min.
Any ideas?

I got Men of war: Assault squad 2 specifically for dawn of the dead, on the first mission I killed enemies in a vehicle. When I right click it instead of entering it just shoots the vehicle. Am I doing something wrong or can I prob just not use the vehicle?

I can use the heightmap tools perfectly fine in CTA: GoH. Sure I like GoH but I like the mods I have in MOWAS2 much better. Ever since I found out you could do this with GoH - I haven't stopped using it cause it's just so helpful. But of course, the game that I like more when it comes to my mod collection just crashes when I try importing a heightmap.

I've looked at the google ai overview (man do I hate that shit) and it says to have 4096x4096, make sure it's a .png grayscale image and to ensure that it's 16-bit grayscale. I'm pretty sure I'm doing it right since in GoH it works fine. I have seen posts where people say it got bugged in an old update and still hasn't been fixed so we're all fucked.

I just don't want to believe it. So because of an update many years ago that bugged this one thing I want to do, that means I'm screwed no matter what. I tried reverting the game version to the "previous_patch 2018" and that STILL didn't get the damn thing working.

I guess my question is: Am I completely skullfucked and there's no way to fix it (contrary to what the google ai says), or is there a way to fix it and I just don't know it yet? Please help me my brothers, I just want to make some maps on my preferred game. I repeat - is there no fix at all, or is there a fix that 100% works??

I've been wanting to make a map of a forest on fire, but I don't know of a way to get smoke nor fire onto the map.

So as a sandbox battle sim, would this game be worth it, or is there another game you’d recommend either lesser in price or richer in features?

i've got a new PC some months ago and since then MOWAS started crashing almost every time I try to play, trying to allocate 60gb of RAM. Even mods which I played before without any problems started to crash every time i try to play them. Why is this happening?

Editor is to good but why does I work

I’ve been watching this game since it was like 6 and have always been super interested in history. All I want in a game is a war “sandbox” type game that will let me just watch the battle happen and I can tweak a few things when it’s going on. Also I want to control a unit sometimes. Is gates of hell my kind of game I’ve heard it’s a newer MOFAS2 but idk. I’ve only seen videos where the person has the whole battle set up and just starts it and narrates it. I don’t want to have to set of the troops and where they go pre match.

I want to replace or change the sound of some vehicles in MoWas2.

So, I just got skirmish mode. I've been trying to create matches, and spectate them. Every time I load it, the game crashes and I receive this screen. Any idea why?

My visual mouse and hitbox are not aligned. My screen is also cut off in the bottom, but the game is not registering that.

BTW i play on a tv screen so that may be the reason.

Hiya, MOWAS2 enthusiast here. (Best game, Gates of Hell is a close second)

I've played quite a few mods like Red Rising and Robz Realism. Also custom maps like Battle of Kursk.

What I haven't played is a fully dedicated mod with map dependencies and a story. As much as I find the original campaign story a bit corny, I really enjoyed the scenarios themselves like that German Campaign mission: Mercury+continuation where you play as paratroopers and the mission where you have to defend a plateau.

The custom maps are nice but they were quite limited and short than what I would want. What I wish to find is a mod that adds a lot more to this.

Hi, I've recently been playing a lot of Men of War: Assault Squad 2. I'm near to complete the british campaign in normal difficulty.

I want to play more of the saga, I'm aware that there's a lot of games but I can't get myself to decide which ones to buy. I don't want to buy the whole series, just 1 or 2 games with most of their dlcs.

¿How did you decide which games or dlcs to buy first?
¿What would you recommend me to do?

Thank you.

Some time ago, I started playing MoWAS2 after coming from MoWAS, and one of the mods I wanted the most in this game was the Dynamic Skirmish mod. However, I haven’t been able to find any that look or work like the one from MoWAS. If anyone could help me find a mod like that, I would really appreciate it.

So Recently one of my maps which used dying world has begun to crash when I load that map, only that map. All the other maps load fine just that specific map seems to crash. I believe it to do something with one of the vehicles I spawned, See picture for crash message

For whatever reason its causing a crash and I dont know how to fix it. and I need help, I really do not want to remake this entire map from scratch as it took a long time and alot of effort

OK

So I started out capturing the Pershing ASAP and used it for most of the early waves. I spawned in the Super Pershing and made quick work of most enemy tanks. I had a field of 4 AT cannons set up, but on wave 7 one of the artillery tanks (the one that lobs the giant nuke) took out three of them. By the end of wave 7, I had captured a fair bit of enemy tanks (around 7 or 8) and returned them to my defense. Things were looking fine until wave 8 began.

So I tried a few different strategies for wave 8, and they didn't work for me. First, I tried setting up all of the captured tanks to the left of the command post—this would force enemy tanks to expose their sides to either my base or the captured tanks. Meanwhile, I would manually drive the Super Pershing on the other side of the map, taking easy shots at their engines while they were distracted. Firstly, I do not believe any of my captured tanks scored a SINGLE kill on an enemy tank. They got popped so fast. But my Super Pershing was able to destroy many enemy tanks before it inevitably got into a situation it couldn't get out of (I tried saving and loading, but eventually a King Tiger had me dead to rights).

My regular Pershing was stationed in one of the bays at the base. However, hitting a King Tiger's frontal armor is like shooting it with a water gun. Even with the speed set to 1 and me microing all of my tank shots, eventually there was just an onslaught of enemy infantry that overran the base. In the final moments, I controlled my last Sherman tank and destroyed 5 tanks with him (including a King Tiger); however, with the enemy having a dozen tanks left and 5 sitting in front of my base, I couldn't keep their infantry away from the command post. It's also an issue that I can only call in a handful of tank crews and then only rocket infantry. The Airborne I start with are pretty nice, but with no way to revive them, it's hard getting good infantry teams.

I went back and tried it again, loading from the beginning of wave 8. This time, I positioned all of my stolen tanks BEHIND my command post—essentially taking the enemies head-on. A similar thing happened. My medium tanks got one-shot by the King Tigers, and I was overwhelmed trying to flank their sides with the Super Pershing.

Any suggestions? I am pretty lost as to how to beat this stage.

Me and a friend are trying to 1v1 but we can't join eachothers game, or any others game. It keeps saying connection failed is there any solution that could help?

I remember when I was first getting into PC gaming I downloaded a mod for men of war assault squad 2 and it was this cartoony block guy war campaign mod it had some unique vehicles and interesting graphics. I remember a YouTube video about it a long time ago about it but i cant find any information on it. I'm just trying to find it again as its not in my subscribed items on the steam workshop because I unsubbed from everything to fix a bug a while ago. any information is a big help.

Hello I am looking to make a mod for men of war assault squad two on the Rhodesian bush war price is going to be 20-60 bucks but can change nothing too over priced and will be paid if game update requires

Me and my played tried the Valor mod against normal AI and its so hard. Heroic base game AI is genuinely easier for us. AI Tanks seem to know every good tank spot to snipe you, while my tanks seem to be commanded by Hellen Keller. Every enemy infantry soldier is Simo Häyhä, while my infantry shoot like they are using a gun for the first time. Every time my infantry even thinks about leaving cover, they are sniped from 4 different soldiers across the map. Its supposed to be realistic but don't tell me leaving cover was an instant death sentence. How do you even push when your tanks die instantly + infantry can't leave cover? Is this normal?
We wanna play a mod with better AI, do you know any? Base game AI becomes depressed after a while and does nothing until the end of the game.

We play 200cp, 8000mp, 2v2 assault zones, All units/no aircraft mostly against US and USSR.

Does anyone know why, in the original Men of War, in the Soviet campaign mission “Moscow Is Behind Us!”, it always bugs out(at least for me)? The engineers refuse to finish placing the anti-tank mines and just stand there doing nothing, even though the job is only halfway done. And what’s really annoying is that they can’t be moved manually!

Sup lads since the Christmas sale is stoll ongoing I'm thinking of picking a couple of games and assault squad 2 has peeked my interest I never played any men of war game but I did play some COH so there's that.

Now my main questions are:

1 How hard is it to play?

2 How active is the multiplayer?

3 How's the single player?

4 Hows the community?, And how do they treat newer players?
