Global 1940 and 1943 Expansion for use with TripleA

@the-captain yea the first place phase is only for units that consume others for the most part. You need to wait and place the elite at the end of your turn. This is player enforced. It was the only way to have paras, waffen etc… active the turn you purchased them.

Fix USA not being able to Declare War on Japan after Japan Declared War on British and ANZAC.

Updated second post. Clarified Elite’s Artillery Support:

When being supported by Artillery and other Artillery supportable units are present, the Artillery sometimes will support only 1 of the Elite’s rolls as well as 1 other unit. So, the Elite will show up in the “1” category in the “Battle Window”, but the rolls will be correct.

Also clarified the “First Place Phase” as I didn’t fully understand @SGT-Pitbull 's post when I first read it.

Closing in on Version 2. What’s left:

10. Capital Warships Taking Damage

11. Super Heavy Battleship

Some fine tuning and a few test rounds. Need to add a map option for Version 1, so those that want to start with only that, can have a 1 click and go.

Probably sometime tommorow or tonight, for me anyway, lol, if all goes well.

:grinning:

Uploaded Version 2 to triplea. I’ll update the 2nd post with the triplea differences.

I didn’t make a Version 1 option yet. It’ll take a few days. Also, it won’t be exactly Version 1 only, as if I don’t have all the units at game start, they’ll show up farther back in the purchase window.

Trying to keep the more commonly used ones showing up first. Nothing I can do about those that come in after game start. They’ll just show in the order they activate after all rd 1 units.

Updated to Version 2.1

Change Waffen Paras to enter round 7. Make German Heavy BB max production of 1. Add new LCV images. Rename “Version” to “Section”.

The Waffen SS formed an Army and decided to take it to the Commisar boys.

It was a Bloodbath

But they prevailed with Heavy losses

lol

Made an adjustment to Commandos and Marines. Artillery will boost an inf 1 as well as a Commando/Marine 1 if all three present. If no inf, they’ll get boosted 2 and attack at 3.

This will be in the next update. Probably a couple days.

The Wehrmacht formed a Panzer Army in Romania. A couple Panzer Grenadiers have been attached as well. They plan to attack the Russian Tank Army in Eastern Poland. They have another forming in Austria.

Russia is forming a Tank Army in Moscow also. lol

Italy and Germany are Allies no more

@the-captain yea i was just testing. Triplea will require the conditions to be met before giving you the option to take over Italy. It will also charge you 5 bucks for doing so but you’ll have to use edit and manually remove/replace the Italian units and change the TTy ownership. This shouldn’t be too bad, as there probably won’t be a lot of Italian TTys and units. If there are, you probably don’t want to take it over and you’d want to keep the ability to canopen anyway.

You’ll also need to edit their bank account to Germany. I thought about letting Germany take over Italy once they’re at war so they’d auto collect the capital cash but it’d require more edit than just doing it directly.

The objectives and Advanced production all auto work. The extra para and LCV capacity do as well, although you’ll need to player enforce the limits if Rome falls. It will stay with the extra 4 a piece. Which reminds me, can Germany place more than 4 Paras and LCVs in Rome ?

@the-captain yea I spaced it was a minor.

While Factories continue to Tool Up for Total War and despite the desperate pleas for Air Transport, Albert Speer and the Reich have improved Strategic Rail Movement.

Total War is kicking my ass. Giving The Pacific a run for it’s money lol.

Luftwaffe has got it going on now. The rest will fall in line :)
