I changed some misspellings in the DBD files made by me.( re-uploaded 11:22. ) I can make a second test when I get home to night.
 
OK, i changed the 2 relevant files.

If germany achieves Bitter Peace it will declare war on SOV 2 years later. This usally results in germany losing quite some ground but a few years later germany will push SOV behind the ural and approximatly 5 years later SOV is annexed. Germany will then gerrison quite some troops in regions of ESE < 10% and therefore suffer heavy losses in siberic weather. How about making germany liberate Siberia? Or germany could achieve a more open Society after Bitter Peace. :confused:
 
By then it´s probably too late. Several divisions were down to one third of strength and will most likely be destroyed soon. But I will continue and see what will develop from this.

I added 3 AI events that add 100 manpower if manpower < 10. Now it is 1939 and JAP has 102 Inf. Is that a bit too much? CHI has a total of 145 Division, the front is stable at a distance of 2 provinces relative to Chongqing and Kunming. Seem quite alright.

That seems quite okay. Jap will need its troops to invade Allied isles two years later. I assume there is a shift of JAP´s AI, but will they actually pull out some of the troops engaged in CHI?
 
The files I added today works, but I don't think Germany should use social conservative ministers with national socialist government its not a huge problem.


*AL focus
U73 should build a small fleet of destroyers and 2 and 3 fighters also not just pure infantry.
N.Spain should protect its cost with at least one militants not just stack all its land units in the north west of Portugal.

Gunman, could you change the auto-retreat direction of naval units? I constantly lose submarines because they stop their current movement (even if it is nearly finished) and retreat to a different province, most of the time into the fangs of british naval bombers. It would be great if naval units would retreat along their predefined movement path if this is faster then the one they normally retreat to.
 
A build file for U73 would have been useful because the nation only builds infantry.

planed to post this old picture for some time.

A few interceptors and destroyer would have done some good.

Has anyone ever seen CHI and JAP signing a regular peace threaty? CHI gave 1204 and 1309 to JAP on december the 13th 1940. :confused:

This has some effects. In 1942 CHI attacks TIB. This makes SIK join the alliance of JAP. CHI attacks CHC. CHI attacks SIK. CHC joins the allliance of JAP. SIK invades India and Mao is at war with the USA.
 
I still don't understand why don't you play with historical decisions on? You should balance that first and then go for balancing the random AI choosing decisions.
 
@ Gunman,

would it be possible to add two small features yet?

The first would be increasing the max length of messages in multiplayer. If one is a history buff ;) , he might want to write his fellow players messages often with long and detailed descriptions about a particular operation, the forces involved in it etc. This however would force him to break that communication in at least two or three different messages, instead of sending it all in a bigger, single message. If the max length allowed in these messages could be multiplied by e.g. 10 times, the problem would be gone.

The second thing concerns sounds. It would be nice to have one used only when troops are ordered to attack; just like the new sound for strategic redeployment added by Lennartos ("strredep.wav"), it would be enough if you could simply make a new entry for the sound effect, identical to the one already used for movement & attack ("UAM1.wav") but with a different name. Then, modders could mod it to their likings :) .

Thank you in advance!

as for DB stuff: VIC has Arsenal de Brest as Tech Team. this is in the occupied zone by GER. maybe rename it Arsenal de Toulon which is under VIC control.

EDIT: havent played vanilla for long, but just in case the divisions which GER receives from CRO (event ID: 2031) are still lead by a croatian officer - i think thats wrong. at least i doubt that Begic was the one http://generals.dk/general/Begić/Vilko/Croatia.html http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Gliederungen/Infanteriedivisionen/369ID.htm

I see this discussion about tweaking Japan, China and so on but there is one thing that always bugged me with AoD when it comes to all of that. And it's the fact that Manchukuo has 19 IC instead of 20 as it was in Armageddon. This is due to how infra affects IC and their IC was never tweaked up to compensate for that. It has in essence turned Manchukuo from a somewhat valuable puppet to just another annoying minor aside from not having to deal with dissent. That 1 IC is the difference of one tech team from 36 until annexation which basically doubles the research of Manchukuo, it means the difference between 18 & 36 troops on horse and inf for Japan for about 10-20 divisions fairly early on. It is a simple fix and the nation/scenario was designed for it.
