Introducing Commanders Mod:The main goal of this mod is to create gameplay similar to europe in ruins without all the stuff that slows down "getting a game".
There will be no launcher. Simply start up the game and play.
There will also be no stats changed or massive amounts of new units. things will work as you expect them to work.
To give the mod its own unique point I will be adding new doctrines on top of the vcoh ones. every company will receive it's own unique commander at the start of the match who will become more experienced troughout the battle. Partly this is done via veterancy. but also via the doctrine.
Features:- Limited amount of recourses similar to EiR values. you wont gain recourses troughout the game.
- All sectors cap faster and only give +1 population (limited popcap)
- every sector counts as 1 victory point now. normal VPs have been removed and starting VPs changed to 1000, 2000, 4000.
- Start with all the vcoh units and doctrine abilities at the beginning of the match. doctrine abilities are free, but limited in amount of uses.
- Working AI!
- New maps
- Upgrades are now bought per unit and are limited in amount of uses (per unit)
- Reinforcing your infantry is now 50% more expensive than buying a new squad (instead of 50% cheaper)
- Retreating will suicide your units on arrival at the HQ. in return you get some XP for them.
- Few stats changes and bug fixes that were present in vcoh
- Tanks now come with repair kits. engineers can only repair buildings.
- Reload of artillery pieces increased
Plans for the future / Planned bugfixes:- Every doctrine will have it's own commander unit. The doctrine tree will be used to give this unit new abilities to command his units.
- remove "autosearch for cover" on infantry
- fix M10 misfire bug
- disable the ability to cap territory that is not connected to your own territory
