Lars Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 World In Flames Honch, when playing your mod, I had the Mannerheim HQ stuck on the fortification line by Leningrad. Needs to be moved to Helsinki or it really buggers up the Finns. And it seems a bit odd to have the HQ up front there with 3 corps behind it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blashy Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 note on the mod. Allied subs raiding Norwegian convoy routes is unrealistic. The Allies stayed away from Norwegian shores to avoid bringing them to the Axis side. If you want to have it as is now, you would need a script that if an Allied vessel is within TWO tiles of Norwegian coast it will tilt them going 3-5% towards Axis each time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blashy Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Another observation, you are using an outdated map. Have a look around Odessa, you are missing a river. It was added around the 2-3rd patch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Spinello Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Maybe I found the problem with Honch12: I downloaded, extracted and installed as usual - and then found that the campaign file does not have the extension "cgn". Seems a simple renaming does the job, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honch Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 Update as of December 1, 2006: Thats a good idea on the Norweigian script Blashy. I will add that just like I added a Yugoslav and Greek script to increase war entry to the Allies if the Italians blockade the central Med while neutral. I will also add an "Axis Surface Raiders Disrupt South Atlantic Shipping (Liverpool)" supply script if an Axis sub or fleet is at Montevideo. I will also add that river near Odessa. The unfortunate thing is that I have made so many changes to my map that I cannot keep up with the infrequent map changes that appear in the patches. I will move Mannerheim back. Africa has been completely filled out for version thirteen. I just need to update some scripts. I then need to fill out Brazil and Uruguay. Montevideo will be in its proper geographical loaction and will continue to be a supply source for German naval units. I was also thinking that due to all of the extra map space now on the South East corner I would add Australia and New Zealand as off map tiles forcing the UK player to physically transport those units to Egypt (or wherever they want) instead of just having them magically appear in 1940-41. Thoughts? I will still avoid anything else that would only be involved with the Japanese war. I have changed some of the starting French and UK corps in some of their African colonies to militia as they were primarily native conscripts. I have given Italy, UK and Germany advanced aircraft to start. Italy becuase in 1939 they had some of the most modern bombers and fighters, especially in Africa. I have also increased the UK air and bomber defense of their tactical air fleets to 2 to represent the superior fighting ability of the RAF in 1940. All other countries are at one. This will better represent the Battle for Britain as it is currently, still, a mop up operation for German airforce based in France. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blashy Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Another observation. Spain economy being damaged by US stopping oil exports is too severe. In over 2 years I've never seen a city higher than 3. If USA had cut them off it probably would have had a 35-45% PERMANENT hit on their economy. So if Spain joins just have it so their industry modifier is at 60% and have a pop up state it is because of US oil embargo. Right now it is simply KILLING Spain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honch Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 Blashy, agreed. Thats actually something I've been meaning to fix for awhile. I just get going on other things and forget. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blashy Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Nag again . The lack of OIL pop up and punishment to Axis is not really necessary IMHO. Right from the start of WW2 oil issues were something Germany had to deal with and it is well reflected in the game. USA and USSR have 6 oil fields and Germany has 1 plus another at 60% if they get Iraq. If your intention is to make the MPP production on the historical side (meaning Axis can only achieve peace or armistice but not defeat the 3 Allies) then all you have to do is play with USA's MPP output since it is severely reduced in the default scenario to make the game 50-50. FYI, I am in July of 41 and that script has basically killed Germany alone, I've not made more than 225-230 mpps since Spring. Enjoying the mod btw.

Honch Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 I like the popups, it gives some urgency to the Axis player to capture the Caucasus or Iraq. I will, however, take your suggestion and reduce the impact of the events. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I like the whole idea but I don't think it should cripple the germans so early in the game. However it DID cripple them late in the war so this should be reflected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leedsunited40 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Why is there no readme for this mod? Also,why no convoy - battle of the atlantic? Seems those were key factors of the war in europe? To Blashy: Is it feasible to add some of your elements to this??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honch Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 Leeds: ALL convoys are there! They all change to Canada if the UK falls. I hope to have the fully filled out Version thirteen? fourteen? fiftenn? on cmmods this weekend. It will include all of the oil shortage scripts but much reduced in impact. BTW Leeds sucks! Liverpool! Long live the mighty Reds! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honch Posted December 11, 2006 Author Share Posted December 11, 2006 Everything is done except for the addition of Madagascar. All scripts are updated. I also need someone to post the flag of Brazil in World War Two for me. I should then have it up on cmmods today or tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retributar Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Honch!: I just read your posting, and i have the flag i think you want!. http://www.ww2incolor.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=182 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honch Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share Posted December 12, 2006 Thanks Retributar. 99% done now. I would have been done last night except that my 4 year old watched me creating the contoured flag of Brazil and she wanted to "make flags" so I lost use of my computer for the rest of the night. Stay tuned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honch Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 Now that Xmas is out of the way I hope to have it posted by the weekend.
