Units FAQ

[De Savage]

Is it possible to get units sheets where you can compare units strenght. I mean Wikipedia style PDF sheets for movement, soft attack, hard, attack, org, etc. I love CORE2, but there is so many new units (especially naval units) and it's hard to know what to build. I play only few hours per week and it will take a while to compare units while playing. Anyone interested about this project? I was thinking to make this myself, but I'm not sure do I have enough time to complete it.

well, if i want to know what unit is worth building i open HOI2-CORE/db/units and check the txt files for the various models...

for destroyer i like model 6 the best (type 7 in game) for example

 

[De Savage]

Yes I know. But it is time consuming use alt-tab to notepad and back. I would rather read this information from printed tables and use pause. In vanilla HOI2 new models were almost always better. Now you need to take more closer look and decied what you want. Also having tables and seeing what units you want give you better understanding what to research. I'm lacking a goal now what to build and research.

Hmm... Maybe I will start making my own tables for units. Just for my own use for a start. But if I happen to get something ready I can share these tables.

 

[De Savage]

I started my project yesterday to create tables for units. Hopefully I'm able to finish this and add all units. So far I have created tables for land divisions only.

You can find land divisions tables from this address (PDF format):

I try to add naval units tomorrow. Brigades and air units will be added probably during the weekend. I made this in the hurry so layout might change a little bit in the future. If you find any errors, please report to me.

Good job, Savage! Looking forward to seeing the air units myself.

Here is another update. I have added naval units:

I will add air units, brigades and other missing units during the weekend. Full unit tables will be online probably on monday morning. Hopefully you will find these useful. At least I do.

Very nice! Those tables will indeed come in handy.

Thanks for your effort De Savage!

Looks good. To improve readability you may want to remove the values for those units listed as "BLANK" (for air units I've only included values because I didn't know, at the time, that you didn't have to).

Good job!

 

[De Savage]

OK. I will remove those BLANKs tonight. I was wondering are they really needed.

 

[baylox]

Technically they are in there to prevent upgrades, or separate "paths". In this type of overview they're not needed, except to illustrate this upgrade prevention.

 

[De Savage]

Blank units are now removed.
