Iberian Invasion - Work in Progress

[Edwin P.]

Here are a series of scripts I am working on to have the USA invade Portugal. I am testing it using a copy of the Fall Blau Scenario with all units in Russia and North Africa removed.

Basically;

1. USA Invades Portugal

2. Then USA Garrisons Lisbon

3. New Production Script is activated to build units for combat and Diplomacy Script is activate to counter rise in Spanish influence until Invasion force is ready to invade Spain.

3. Then USA reinforces with 2 scripts - one for 1 unit and 1 for 2 units. This ensures that all possible reinforcements are sent to Lisbon ASAP.

4. Then USA launches Offensive to Take Madrid with 7 units (Steal= 0), if 10 units are available it uses 10 units in the offensive (Steal= 3)

I guess if you work on the Allied end of the AI and I work on the Axis end, we can get this AI package done much faster.

Wanna trade script sets? I'd like to see what you've done in detail.

[Edwin P.]

Good idea, I will send you my Iberia script full set tomorrow (after I test it some more). I am still having a problem with the Initial invasion and as the Human player I can defeat a size 7 Invasion Force Against Spain simpbly by Reinforcing Spanish units, but this drains my resources on the Western Front, as the AI does not focus on destroying one unit at a time.

Yet, my backup script with a Size 10 force tends to work a lot better. As it is now the AI starts with a size 7 attack force and when 3 additional units are available it throws them into the battle (thats why the Size 7 has Steal= 0 and the Size 10 script has Steal= 3)

I also added a script to seize Valencia if the Axis leave it unguarded to defend Madrid. Devious, aren't I.

NOTE: I still have not figured out how to transfer USA Air units to Portugal/Spain. Any ideas, there are no Operate Air Units scripts that I can see.

[Honch]

Hi guys:

Let everyone know when your combined AI redo is all done. I'd love to include it in my Expanded Custom Scenario soon.

[Edwin P.]

Will do,

Note: I added scripts for transporting 4 and 3 USA units to Lisbon to maximize the Buildup in Lisbon and remove a problem I ran into when there were 3 units, Effectively the 1 script would activate and then the simultanous acitivation of the 2 script would cancel it.

Now I have 4 scripts with Steal= 0, Length= 1, and Script Order: Size=4, Size=3, Size=2, Size= 1. This ensures that if 3 units are in USA they will all be transported to Lisbon ASAP, as the first Transport script will grab all available units leaving none for the following scripts.

[Honch]

Awesome work.
