Some Ideas to Try for Multiplay

[eddieballgame]

A friend of mine & I have created the following mod --- BPES-mod (1935-1948).eug

He plays South America & I play Australia ---

All countries are set to X = 0 Y = 0 alignment. All Techs have been set to zero. Removed all "Puppets"
( scenarios\1935 folders )

Removed the "db\events.txt, sphere_of_influence.txt, & AI_free_techs.txt
Allies = AST Axis = BRA Comintern = SOV
Removed All Wars
( scenario\ BPES-mod (1935-1948).eug )


AI was modded as follows WAR = 50 INFLUENCE = 0 Strategy Deployment Threshold = 20 ( added this line to USSR )
( ai folder )

Changed the "Victory Point" values for Australia, Brazil, USSR ( SOV) to 100
Australia & Brazil start with 200 ICs ( Sydney = 126 & Rio de Janerio = 87 )
( scenarios\1935\ vp.inc )

Increased the "Research Speed" to 2x faster

Changed the "alied_ledg.bmp" & "axis_ledg.bmp" (backed up, of course!), just for cosmetics
( gfx\interface )

All Files have been Modded with "WORDPAD" --- the "bmp" files were done with "Paint"

By speeding up the tech "we" can play on slower speeds while getting "into" the research tree. Changing the Allies & Axis status allows us to keep a running score of our territorial progress.

Any thoughts on this would be well received, hopefully, this has given some others some ideas as well.

Sounds intressting.

I have prepared a scenario in wich I have triggred a commie revolution in the US (event 3718, i think it was), made someone record a lot of popular songs in the USSR (to get the dissent down) and put the US in the comminter. In both countries I have raised the war-entry to maximum (with the console) and possibly DoWed Uraguay (to get the cg usage down).
This will hopefully be a rather intresting scenario to play, once one of my friends get his router in order we will test it out.

Found out that "coal" & "steel" had to be increased to accomadate the increase in ICs for Australia & Brazil. You modders already knew this.
I thought I could make this change in the "vp.inc" file. Did not work, I was able make the changes in the "Province.csv" file.
