The base mechanics for Prestige will never be changed, but the game needs more customizable options for it. Rommel Mode and the difficulty settings are not enough to create a unique playthrough that focuses on Prestige Management. A lot of good ideas for Prestige focused Special Challenges and negat...

That's an interesting thought and a good idea. The best heroes like Zero Slots or Double Fire come with a minus 10 or 20 Prestige per turn. That would definitely put a unique spin on super heroes. After all... you got to pay to play

Makes me wonder if you couldn't just set a flag for the mission. If it's multiplayer, have the paratroopers lose their ability to drop after movement, if it's single-player, have them keep the ability. Alternatively, you could let paradrops after movement happen, but they would be susceptible to an...

I agree that a turn of inaction after an amphibious landing would make more sense and add meaningful and realistic challenge to amphibious scenarios. This would also be the proper way to fix paras... let them land in the same turn, but lose all movement points. I hope they change to this in the nex...

I like the para change. A lot. Eben-Emael specifically could use a tweak but please don't dumb it back down... You should look at it from a Scenario Design perspective. The current change to paras cripples the AI's use of them. The drop zone can't be a random move and now they sit in the air transp...

5: Reform replacements costs... I agree with your suggestion on increasing Elite Replacement Prestige cost. Fortunately, this can easily be changed in the Rules.json file. I recommend 150 for deployment and 200 for in mission. This adds good strategy for replacements and Prestige management. Also (...

Can air transports just be delayed a set number of turns with Lua script on the MP scenarios? This would resolve the MP issue while also not effecting DLC play.

The PzIII and Hetzer flamethrowers should be simple updates. They just need shorter and wider barrels to simulate the flamethrower covers. How about replacing the PzII flamethrower with a CharB1 flamethrower? :twisted: Historically it would be more accurate in terms of actual combat usage. What woul...

The random move Editor script cannot be used with air transports, so this will negatively impact the AI’s effectiveness with paratroops. I’m imagining a D-Day scenario where the 101st Airborne gets completely shot out of the sky by the Axis player’s second playthrough…

I think this was done with the intention to balance MP matches. I feel your pain in regards to DLC play, but there are some gamey exploits done at the start of most MP matches with airborne troops. There could be some more reasons, but this is the main one that I know of. I’d prefer the unit to lose...

Thanks for that, I see now. Not worth it then for its slot allotment. if it's a command tank, should it have some other beneficial stats to represent that? Like increased initiative, or maybe a Leadership hero or something? Otherwise, what's the point gamewise? There were hundreds of dedicated comm...

"... If it only has a machine gun, then why does the model show its main gun?" It was a field modified Bergepanther commander's tank. The commander wanted fully enclosed protection, so they basically welded a scrapped Panzer IVH turret on top of the Bergepanther. The turret could not rotat...

Were the air transport changes made to balance MP and Random Scenario combat?

It's related to one of the changes made in version 1.02

"Steamroller trait now only works with units which also have Overrun trait"

It would be easier to use the Console Command cheat for EXP (see below). Just don't get carried away

Experience Cheat: setany experience X
X = the value of experience for selected unit

Was the weather condition rainy? There are times when enemy aircraft will remain in the sky from previous turn and the weather condition is rainy. Rain prevents all air combat both from the sky and to the sky.

That seems rare for you to get an American AI in 41. They do suffer unit imbalances in this year against the other factions. You can use the "setany iseeyou 1" command cheat to verify, but random AI scenarios appear to be balanced at the start based on Prestige. The AI struggles quite a bi...

Are you talking about playing MP or AI random generated scenarios? I think there might be a MP balance issue of spamming overstrength Conscripts (without vehicle) to wear down your enemies prestige. As for the qualitative difference in 41, you might want to elaborate. From what I've read, the Soviet...

Thanks Ezequiel! This applies to all who have tried so far. If or when you conquer the Grim Range, I'm curious to know how many turns it took. My personal best is 45 turns, but I feel this can be improved if the proper Commander Traits are chosen. Thanks again to those who helped with the beta testi...

I am not using the mods of R2G2 - so no Naval Anti-Air or Ranged Destroyers mod (and had it never activated) - there should not be any "unwanted" hidden remnants. Maybe someone can investigate this... Thanks for clarifying. I assumed you were talking about my Naval AA mod in the last disc...
