Save games?

This might have been asked before but anyway:
There is a "Save & Exit" option but that is essentially one save slot that you can then come back to, correct?
Would it be possible to add a proper save menu with multiple slots? Currently the game is not very forgiving: if you mess up a turn, that's it and tough luck. On more than one occasion I have spent days / weeks on a campaign only to make a mistake near the end and end up having to start from scratch. Even beyond that, it would be good to have the option just to try different ideas on a specific turn to see how things pan out.

No way! What's done is done.

You can do this manually. Just select
Save & Exit
and back up
profiles
folder from
GTOS Installation Dir\users\
directory. You can rename the backup to whatever you like.
To restore a game "saved" in this manner, just delete the
profiles
directory (make a backup first!), select one of your backups that you wish to restore, make a copy of it and rename this copy to
profiles
.
I use it every time after I deploy my units, because sometimes deployment takes a very long time and if I screw something up by accident after deployment (like forget to issue initial orders for some of my units, or set up arty zones) it means I need to restart the battle. And I don't have a whole day to play with GTOS.
I also use it to store some interesting tactical situations in order to replay them.

Thanks - I had completely forgotten about that! I already used to do this years ago playing Achtung Panzer but had forgotten (must be an age thing...).
