I've finished both campaigns and I'm now playing as the Allies again but with a couple of mods added. However, there have been some strange effects that I'm not sure are caused by the mods or the new difficulty setting. The mods I'm using are Increase grenade range, Easier to use engineer/medic tools and Replace Panzerkleins with soldiers.

Here's what has been strange.
- At first there was a saving restriction, but that suddenly disappeared after a few missions, now it's as though I was playing on normal again.
- Mission objectives are always displayed as unknown until they are completed.
- Some missions I encountered the first time haven't showed up this time. I've played them in a different order though, if that's what might have caused it. But I've made sure to find all documents.
- My characters were at level 7, and after playing just one mission & two encounters they are at level 10 all of sudden. One encounter was fighting some really tough japanese ninja-type enemies, don't know if that boosted my skill.

Any ideas?

For variety there's a degree of randomness in the original game. Not all the missions appear in every campaign.

Really? Well that's rather silly. I haven't run into any new missions that weren't there the last time. I've only missed some.

By default, only in normal difficulty you can save anytime, hard only lets you save in real time. I use Difficulty Level Changes to be able to save anytime. Again depends on difficulty settings. Kezardin already answered this one. That's normal too.


Here is a list of mods I use and have completed the game with, if you are interested:
* AmmoFixes
* Axis Wehrmacht Skins
* Class Skill Changes
* Difficulty Level Changes
* Easier Medical and Engineering Items
* Faster animations
* Grenade Range Increase
* No-Panzerklein Modification (causes the last mission to freeze because there supposed to be a PK in a cutscene)
* Replacement Hardware Cursors
* Skill Watchdog hack
