World War 2 Scenario for EUI

[unmerged(20873)]

If anyone is interested i have begun work on a World War 2 Scenario for Europa Universalis. I have made some progress but still much is to be done. The main reason for this scenario is my dissapointment of HOI peace system. I want Sweden to be able to attack Soviet union, get Leningrad and stop there. Also building own alliances could be fun, for example a Nordic Alliance.
If anyone has any ideas they are to be posted here, pronto.

An awesome idea, what are the planned play nations?

Sweden, Germany, USA, GB, Italy, Russia, France, and Japan?

you guessed it.. but still I am unsure about Sweden. As for the last of the playable nations i think of:

China - should i include the civil war?
Some country in South America - gives you a perspective
Turkey?

What progress have you made?

It's been years since I played EUI but still here goes: Spain could be an idea - although China would probably be the most interesting last country...

What progress have you made?

The countries in Europe are almost finished (Italy and Germany remains)
Outside Europe little progress is made untill Europe is finished.
Question: I know that 1936-1948 is a short time span for EU, so between witch years shall I put it?

What if the campaing begin in 1919 until 1991.

Yes, that might be a good idea.

I have a thought about the units:
Infantry - still the same
Cavalry = I dunno, heaps of cavalry, doesn't sound good in ww2. Armour?
Artillery: I do not want a player to be able to attack units using only artillery. My first thought was to use it as tanks, but it feels stupid to use tanks for sieges. Then I came up with this: Air Support. They are what you need: Bomb the city!

Warships: Using battleships seems stupid, because a lot of minor countries would get battleships then. I think that I will use this slot for Cruisers.
Galleons: Destroyers
Transports: Transports

As for airplanes, they will probably not be included. Nor will aircraft carriers, both of these are simpley to difficult to implent.

What if you make the warship more expensive and powerful?

 

[unmerged(22939)]

Even if warships are more expensive, minor countries could build them, and I think that is the problem. Isn't it?

I mean four or five times more expensive, since a Drednaught isn't exactly the cheapest thing to build.

Perhaps start it just after the great war and maybe up to 1950...

Czheoslovakia - Odd shape, but I've figured it out.
Hungary - No problems
Poland - Why, the provinces in the game is almost shaped as in WW2!
Iraq - Wont have any port. Will look very odd.
Iran - No problems
Tibet, Nepal and Buthan - Creating countries that cannot exist in EU1 (lack of provinces) is wont happen. These three + maybe some South American country will be taken away from the game.

Also, for now three scenarios are planned:
The Second World War (1919 - 1993)
- Germany, Soviet Union, United Kingdom, USA, Japan, Italy, France, Sweden
War in the Pacific (1939 - 1966)
- Japan, China, Australia, USA, New Zeeland
Post War (1951-1991)
- USA, Soviet Union, France, United Kingdom, China, Mexico

Screenshots to be submitted during the next weekend!!!

as far as a timeline goes why not start at the begining of the great war and end it in 1989 when the wall came down

Sounds pretty awesome I hope it works.

 

[Braedonnal]

Sounds very interesting. I'd say China over Sweden if you are still having doubts on the eight countries.

 

[unmerged(27327)]

agreed china played a much bigger role in WWII than sweden

 

[unmerged(20873)]

Ok. China is now a playable nation. However, the civil war in china will not be represented due to lack of provinces.
Also, a what we call in game creation terms "bug" have showed up. I cant add the Hanseatic Leauge's provinces to the rest of the completed Germany. When I do that the game crashes when jumping over to the next moth. Help needed.

Nevermind. Problem solved.
