Description
UP-TO-DATE WITH Reinforcement Pack #17 - War Reserves




the divisions have to be recreated !ONCE! for every single new mod. they are saved separate and you can switch to your vanilla or other mods safely back without losing any of them

if you want to play mostly army general with mods, you have to know, that every single update (vanilla ones too) will break your savefiles! (except skirmish saves etc!!!) you can get around it if you make a backup from the mod folder every time you start a army general game and copy those files back when a mod update arrives:

C:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\919640\1913298591

for additonal Army General gameplay changes, you have to use my Redux, Redux Extreme or Redux Overkill Mod Versions!!!



it`s a gameplay mod with some minor realism tweaks and not a 100% accurate realism mod

if you like my mod and want to support me, give a thumb up and/or add it to your favorites. thanks!



what this mod changes so far (not all changes are listed):



- same as my main mod, but wrecks, crater & dead bodies persist until the end of the game now (WARNING: this MAY cause DESYNCS in MP/COOP battles or/and cause worser performance if your pc is not good enough especialy in bigger battles)
- deck rework (includes all DLC divisions too) & +25 deck activationpoints & every 4 or 5 point slot is now a 3 point slot (its recommended to use selfmade decks, because the vanilla premade decks are not optimized with the new deck rules)
- vanilla, reworked & additional division economics
- Phase B starts after 15 min & Phase C after 30 min
- greatly extended duration for breakthrough & conquest
- speed for vehicle/tanks resembles more RL values (MUCH SLOWER GAMEPLAY)
- speed buffs from traits & veteran status have been reduced or deactivated
- supply units have +100% more capacity, infantry can be reinforced
- higher artillery dispersion (+25% more dispersion) & longer radio spotter range (2km)
- gamespeed changes: slow: 0.5, normal: 0.75, fast: 1.0 & very fast: 3.0 (vanilla: 0.33, 1.0, 2.0 & 3.0) all games (even mp/coop) will start with 1.0 gamespeed, which is now on the fast button!
- aircrafts have a higher evasive buff (vanilla: +0%/+15%/+25%, now: +10%/+20%/+30%)
- infantry gets a 15%/25%/35% damage resistance buff for each veteran level
- buildings have more hp & infantry is better covered
- glow for units in buildings or behind cover is deactivated
- longer duration for fire & smoke
- reworked veteran levels
- ace units have 50% more HP
- 85mm-94mm cannons have higher AP damage values
(88-94mm guns can now kill any medium tank with one succesful penetration hit (vanilla: they needed 2 hits))

FOR SAFETY: you can make a backup of your deck location:

C:\Steam\userdata\xxxxxxx\919640


Some AI & gameplay facts:

implemented as a feature from devs, to be closer to how a human would react in a online match or even a real battle, it targets the position of your !firing! artillery even if it has no sight contact or recon unit near (moving those units a bit away after firing is recommended). the ai has a remembrance! if it spots units only for !one second!, it will remember their exact last seen position for several minutes up to an hour. if it has no actionspoints left for an artillery or airstrike in that moment, the attack can follow several minutes later even! the ai is capable to fire on positions, it believes you have units stationed! i have sometimes watched the ai attacking positions on my territory, where a good position was for my artillery/pak/aaa, but there havent ever been any of my units during the battle. most underestimate the stealth abillity of infantry recon units too. without a counter recon unit to spot them, normal units have to be sometimes 100-50m close to spot them. recon units dont effect the frontline system and they can sneak past your lines. recon units on hills/high buildings (like churches) can spot units further away and over close forests. all those factors lead most to the misunderstanding the AI is omnipotent. last but not least: the ai knows, how important support trucks are and prioritize them above everything else. supply units are very fragile and mostly explode during supplying other units by arty dispersion as a collateral damage

@Shatras your skills are not limited 😁.
Great mod! You can do it.
Shatras  [author] 18 Mar @ 3:49am 
cdcool nope, that is really beyond my limited modder skills
cdcool 16 Mar @ 5:08am 
Blood that Blood that stays!
cdcool 16 Mar @ 5:05am 
Can you add Blood?

Extending the game time, while lowering the pace a bit was exactly what I had in mind. Thanks anyways.
Shatras  [author] 26 Jan @ 8:36am 
yeah, that should be mod related. but i am afraid, i cant do much without resetitng one of my main reason for my mod: extended gameplay duration. my mod has been made for a better coop/skirmish experience, historical battles and even army general are only some side marks. if i have some more time, i may take a look, but for now i cant really help you in that case. i am sorry
Old School Internet Warlord 26 Jan @ 8:05am 
If that helps it`s the Desperate Measures scenario. I play Kampfgruppe Jaedtke.
Old School Internet Warlord 26 Jan @ 7:42am 
Yes. In vanilla I reach phase C and can play till the end.
Shatras  [author] 26 Jan @ 7:33am 
it should mostly work with historical battles too, but there could be some troubles in some cases. have you tested the same scenario with vanilla too?
