Infantry Division in size and composition. So we had in reality many different types of f.e. I thought a lot about what was in reality and what is possible with the engine atm.Īnd then thought again what would be useful in terms of playability.

HoI3 Division Sytem and historical background: But it holds imo still some very good basic thoughts about what is possible etc, and the historic Division I made up my thoughts on this quite some time ago(2009/2010), and also posted it already here and there. (This gets even worse if you plan to build a mod that spans more years as std-HoI3.) So the ai gets behind in options to counter the human player. AT to his existing Divisions, but the ai can't do that. if the enemy is using more tanks, a player can attach e. But the ai will never be able to switch to another setup.Į. The player can have a great time to build up many different Division setups.

So a Division with 5 MIL is maybe seen stronger as 3 INF with better tech.Īnd thus mixing Battalion sized units and Brigade sized units could lead to unwanted AI behaviour. But also you can have more pics for more different unit types.įrom my experience only numbers of Brigades(units in Divsions) are calculated for odds/chances when to attack. You need more pics for more different unit types. You can show allways only one symbol of the main unit of that Division. Techs need to affect all new unit types, and combined units might have much more techs affecting them(this could make a rework of the gui needed). So with a Battalion based mod wich has ~9-16 units in a Division might slow down the game much earlier as in Std-HOI3. I just state here below some in my mind at this moment.Īdditional units(Brigades) in a Divsion slow down the game. Please let me know if you have some more in mind, I'll then add them to the list below. Recently I asked myself how others would like to see Divisions setup represented in the HoI3 game.Īre all happy with the std system, or do you would like a different system and how.įrom my experience with the game, there're first quite some things to remembered.
