Road to War Modder
Pacfic Scenario Research Required
The initial ground work.
The Map
1) A comprehensive list of major cities (500,000+).
2) A list of other cities and towns known to play a part in WWII Pacific Battles
3) The population of each of these cities and towns
4) Which of these cities were known for their industrial base (i.e. which ones gets the Goods factory)
5) A list of Fortresses and other fortifications and their locations
6) Significant buildings/wonders and where they are located.
7) Location of main mountain barriers and rivers
The Forces
1) These will be based on 1941 starting forces (except China and Japan who need to based on 1936)
2) The organisation structure from company up to massive Army Group for each nation that took part.
3) Land forces are still the priority, however Air and Naval power are important, you still need land forces to take the ground.
4) List of unit names and where they were located in the time frames above.
The Major Players
1) List of significant people
2) List of significant Generals (4 star and higher) and the names of the forces they led
And that is just the start ... I estimate 3-4 months of research
... This is why it took so long to create 1.04 - Europe
1.05 - Pacific, will take almost as long to research, the actual coding takes a couple of months and then a couple of more months to refine it.
Thankfully I'll be able to use the lessons learned in 1.04 and incorporate them into 1.05 code, so that side will be a bit faster.
