He didn't attach a map with his mod. THat means when you start it, it will be in a random map.

Actually if we're talking WW2 here, that would be the T-34. The T-62 was the Soviet standard for the middle part of the Cold War.;)
 
As a student of history, I am drooling at the prospect of a WW2 scenario, a proper one like in Civ2.

Leader of Nationalist China was Chiang Kai-Shek. Title, General.

The Navy SEALs started during WW2 as Underwater Demolition Teams. I suggest a better UU for the US would be the Rangers, super infantry, or keep the Marines. For the US, certainly the Flying Fortress, B-17 is fine. Also throw in the Aircraft Carrier, they made the best use of carriers during WW2.

The Jap colour should be bright red, the Rising Sun. UUs, how about Kamikaze, sort of a weak and cheap Cruise Missile? They also had the best Battleship.

Britain, how about the Commando? Spitfire or Hurricane, absolutely, FYI, the Hurricane knocked off most of the Luftwaffe, not the Spit. Not sure how to represent the Royal Navy .... maybe the Destroyer, ultra effective against subs and can, in a pack, take on the Battleship.

Germany, the U-boat. Stormtroopers and Panzers, of course. How to fix it so that they are the first to develop Jet Fighter and Cruise Missile?
 
ww2
Sweden was NOT nuetral they supplied Germany with ore.

Sweden had been trading iron to Germany from before the war, and continued doing so until the war ended. Sweden also agreed on letting unarmed german troop use swedish rail (for a price), mostly for going home to get some time off.
This changed when germany were starting operation barbarossa (was that the correct name?), namely the invasion of Soviet Union. Fully armed troops, artillery and so on were demanded passage from Norway to Finland, and it was granted.

Doing the above kept Sweden out of the war. If Sweden had refused, the goverment descided, Sweden would also have been invaded and occupied. Having broken the german radio-code earlier really gave the state minister intel supporting the above.

Anyway, my point is that you can´t say that Sweden were on any side of the conflict than it´s own, and therefore neutral. Swedens main objective during ww2 was staying OUT of ww2. Sure, they were the only source of iron to Nazi germany, and they let Nazi forces move on Swedish ground, but if they where occupied both above would have been fulfilled anyway, and occupied they problably would have been. Furthermore, they gave a safe haven to foreign resistance (mainly Norway, the famous "police schools" anyone?), and other refugees (100% of Denmarks jewish population for instance). I´m pretty sure the above were glad Sweden didn´t enter the war.

P.S Sorry for beeing boring.
 
Regarding the US Marines, why not call them Marines, and call the others Commandos. UK Commando units were particularly effective. How about a Spitfire UU triggering a GA.

I really should get round to trying out this mod.

By the way, how did you go about making a country neutral?
 
DOH!

I've practically regurgitated a previous post, my fault for being lazy..... [punch]

Czechoslovakian president and during war exile president was Edvard Benes. I believe, that that is the name you are looking for. Im from Czech rep, so i know what im talking about. Dont put czechs from this mod please, our soldiers were betrayed by west europian countries (England and France) in 1938 in Munchen agreement, so dont betray us now, we would like to destroy nazi germans :-))))
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been thinking about excluding them from the game in favor of some other civ, but I might keep them still. PLease come with suggestions for UU's. I'm going to include many UU's so please help me.

Can these different versions of WW2 be used with the 1.16 patch?
1.17 is a bad patch and I will not use it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think you have to use the 1.17 patch, so if you want to play the MOD install that.

Nice MOD...

The Russian T62 tank was probably the best tank of the war.

In my opinion better than the Tiger.

It was more reliable.
Had better range.
A diesel engine....less prone to fire and would start in adverse conditions.
Lighter, meaning it could cross European bridges.
It was immune to German antitank guns, apart from the 88.
It was cheap.
Easy to maintain and operate.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yea I know! My first thought was to make the Soviets produce A LOT of tanks, that's why I made them
cheaper, and therefor also less good. BUT I'm currently working on adding more UU's and with those maybe 5 different types of tanks per nation!

And Then the Soviet tanks will be less good from the start maybe, and their last tank is the best in the game.

This will reflect the war a little better and make the civs very different from each other. I will try and don't make any über-civs, but in the UP-COMMIING scenario (YES, a scenario), there will be major differences in starting POWER.

Thanks for the Feedback and facts, I want more of this! :)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This was very bad to hear... has this happened to anyone else?

Could you please send me the save-file at the year the game crashes?

That would really help debugging the game.

And YES, I'm about to add a Map to the MOD. Maybe one European and one world map. With Correct

starting locations of course. (Maybe not from the start, but everything has it's time...)

Thanks for the leader name!

I might add the Ranger too. And I will definetly add the B-17. And a better Aircraft carrier too, any tips

about any ship types and such?

Right now, the jap-color is WHite. And Polands color is Red. But I might change...
Yea I'm about to add a Kamikaze ship actually.

Right now, the britts have a better Battleship, but I had a Destroyer in the start. And yes I will try and make them lords of the Seas (Together with the Nazis, americans(aircraft) and japs(Battleship)...).
And Yes I will add the Hurricane (What's the difference between Hurricanes and Spitfires?)
Could anyone post pictures and stats of WW2 stuff? Any help would be welcomed.

Germany will deffinatly get the best U-boats. And Stormtroopers, yes.

I could give them Jet-fighters and Cruise Missiles earlier, but that would be a little to big advantage wouldn't it?

Ok, I have alot of feedback about the Navy Seals. Hmm, I'm not sure what to do... Maybe it's just the name that is getting to everybody?

I did not make the Neutrals "Neutral", I just made them super-unaggresive, and such...

But in the Scenario, I'll try and make it so that they won't attack. Or be in war.
 
I think its a great idea, but how can you really make a true to life WWII scenario without the ability to place cities, units, or otherwise?

That will be done, you and everyone else, just wait and you will see, a full scale scenario with cities placed on correct locations will be made... soon!
 
Can't you use Gramphos's save game editor to add units, select where previous units are put, add new units, and (i'm not sure about this one?) add new cities?

Yes you can do all that, except adding cities... but you can add settlers, and money, so withing 100 turns you have 200 12+ Cities, all located correctly on the EUROPEAN Map, with my modified rules!

So keep reading this thread and you WILL play version 3.0 WITH a WW2 SCENARIO!
 
The only problem with a save game editor is that you can only load the game as one civilization so you can't choose between them. This means you'll have to do it over and over for as many civ's as there are in the game. And since its done over a series of turns you can't ensure everything will be the same for each save. Is there a way around this so you cna use one save for all civs?

If I don't remember incorrectly, you can switch civ with som tool (I think it's Gramphos)
 
I played civ2 ww2 scenarios and find they are not as good as a good war game ,i.e. computer TOAW,Pacific War or Board Game,Third Reich ,The Russian Campaign etc. The problem I find is that all countries can build CVA's, BB's , etc. Can't happen in this world. The Chineese ,Dutch,etc. had no possibility of build ing these units let alone 4 engine bombers. In civ 2 countries built BB's by the barrel full. I was wondering if this is the same in Civ.3?
As a war Gamer this turns me off. To play Civ3 as a srrategy game where Egypt can build everything I suppose it could be ok since all start even in 4000BC but as a war game ,Yuk.

In a random map of the MOD, the Answer is YES.

But when the Scenario (European Map to start) Map comes out, only the greatest powers will be able to build the best units.
