Im almost finished with my "Wehrmacht Combat Engineer Battalion"
Im really bad at making the pedia, anyone who does that want to volunteer?
Its a combat engineer made on an army pallet, so as an army bat, you can load foot infantry in the army to protect your forward engineers.
Because if you didnt destroy everything on your way in, then you didnt do it right!

I pointedly and truthfully refer to myself as, "The Village Gfx Idiot," so I'm sorry to say I can't help; nevertheless, I did want to say that it looks fantastic

Edit: oops, just realized it was because I had the King flag checked.
Well, Im glad that you did try them out!
You really need a whole set to play using them, but as you all know, thats alots of work!
So, before I turn them out cookie cutter style, I want to make sure that Im happy with them. Its sort of a rough draft. But if they are done right, I think they can add some good flavor and utility to a World War Two scenerio.
...Im also learning alot about how the computer uses armies. The AI prefers to use Offensive units in Armys. If none are available, it will often under-man, or fortify the empty army inside a city. Make sure units are toggled as "Foot units" or not. Its helpful to have a foot unit available that is an offensive unit. The AI loves to put tanks in the armies. Sometimes the AI is all over the place with armies, sometimes it seems to be under using them. Im trying to find the key to a good level play.
Building generated armies for the AI is also helpful. I dont worry (for me) about overweighting the AI's advantage when playing the Axis Powers, which I usually do, unless im playing Jeffery who wont give them up!!!
Any WWII scenerio should favor the Allies to some degree. (Although Mother Russia always saves the day!)
Jeffery wrote some observations about special units, ill quote his post...
Specialty Armies, for example the "Mountain Division," will increase movement by +1 when the mountain terrain is selected in the unit menu to be "ignored." If for example you load one regular infantry unit into a "Mountain Division," that army will move two mountain hexes when that terrain is selected to be ignored. A regular army would move just one mountain hex.
If you have also selceted the unit to ignore that terrain, no additional bonus is give to the army, it will still only move two hexes.
If you have selected the unit to ignore the mountain terrain, and load that unit into a regular army, it will move two hexes. No additional bonus is again given if you load that unit into an army that is also selected to ignore that mountain terrain.
The advantage of an army specified to use a specific terran type is the extra movement point added to the units crossing that specified terrain, in a addition to the bonus of a move and attack within the same turn.
Ive loaded a "build fortress" annimation with the Mountain Divisions as well, as a unique abilty for that army type.
