What is the usual result of the Spanish Civil War? Is it a 50% chance or Republicans wins more often? In my games it seems so.
I´ve had several new starts (due to new betas). I´d say that Reps are winning more than 50% of SCW, maybe even 2:1. Playing with historic settings.
Afaik the civil war command gives the new nation some additional militia. How about changing this to infantry?
That might help - a little. If too many provinces are lost by "bad luck" at the start of SCW, they might find themselves isolated and will be wiped out easily.
That´s what´s happening in Seville more often than not.
I agree with strengthening nationalists AI a bit more. Ideally they should be strengthened only if they are about to lose.
As they are not disbanded after the war it helps also on the long run.
A solution to this is to make all intervention events trigger immediatly, so they need to be triggered by the cival war event itself. Right now the war ight be decided before those events fire.
Another issue is the damage done be changing ownership. This reduces early SPA production. How about offmap IC and resources instead of those huge resource stockpile sP starts with?
IIRC CORE sets the resources to a fixed value both sides start SCW with (Nationalists having more than Reps). So no offmap resources would be necessary. Reduced IC due to change of ownership is quite okay - for "non-national" provinces.
If the capitals are taken this might be a disadvantage.
It applies for starting provs like sevilla by 50%.
This could explain why Reps seem to be winning most of the time.
Here is a new set of changes.

Have to give to Pang and Gunman for the fine tuning i think i forgot this is a patch. Still if you have the time, another quick thing you could add would be a moddable ESE bonus to offensives 15% doesn't really do that much, Anyway i am going to add and not just request things.
In regards to the SCW the fact that the reps are more unified than they where IRL has always been a problem. Effectively Catalonia was a separate entity after may 1937 but i guess this would all depend on how the war had went up to that point and it might be a little odd to have them as another nation (as you may guess for my quotation below i would approve of this lol). Also before all the foreign aid remember franco started his rebellion with the best of the best of the spanish army so he had a good change to begin with and this should be reflected.
Talking IC share is fine but the Army of Africa should be good enough to take ground before significant foreign aid happens in late 36 although it happened earlier most of it was fully under way then (also it should continue) so some secondary events would be nice, i might write some and see how things go.

I mixed up event numbers. 3100 should now work as i intended.
Edit: it does not. Here is a workaround.
Edit2: The workaround makes things worse. Here is a working state
Edit3: The working state is identical to the current beta 6.

Unfortunalty this does not work as well. The SPA event triggers still one day later. I guess that is because the nation is new then.
Applied the latest beta version and CORE does not work with it - I get a CTD when the campaign is loading (save games affected also).
That's because the last Beta has new vars in the db\misc.txt file which CORE does not define, such as shore bombardment cap. They guys who develop CORE needs to take the latest misc.txt and apply their changes to it.
