Description
Compatible with 1.16.9

This mod adds:

1. Historical tanks stockpiles of various nations - check "Real amount of tanks - complete v2.0"

2. Unlockable variants and improved versions of the tanks based on historic designs: go from Panzer IV A in 1937 to Panzer IV H in 1944.

3. New guns, turrets and modules - Assault gun, GW heavy howitzer, Fixed hull gun (for first Churchills or B1) and small hull cannon (Italian L6/36, Japanese Type 5 medium tanks), Four man heavy turret (for KV-2), Medium-Heavy cannon and Modern cannon, Rear Mounted Gun, Interwar radio, Squeeze bore cannon, Unprotected ammo storage, Reverse gearbox system.

4. "Assault tank" role introduced, unlockable with the "Assault Guns" of the artillery tree. StuG III A, Semovente da 75/18 and SU-76M finally have their role!

5. Completely changed casemate structures. Light, medium and heavy are replaced for Open, Closed and Fixed to better represent variants

6. Changes for armored cars. Armored cars now functions similarly to tank chassis in their own research tree. You can make Armored car tank destroyer, Armored car artillery, Armored car assault gun, etc. so making Sd. kfz. 234 in all variants is finally possible.
Note: armored car variants (TD, AG, ...) are in similar light tank chassiss for better usage

@advancedcapital: Hi, probably not, at least right now.
Maros15  [author] 16 Jan @ 1:20am 
@silent_reader: you are right. There are some changes in CZE focus I didn't notice. I made changes and now everything works as intended.

Plans for making a version compatible with R56?
silent_reader 15 Jan @ 9:13am 
Actually I just noticed that some other bonuses are missing as well. It seems that it forces the game to use the old focus tree from before gotterdamerung
silent_reader 15 Jan @ 8:52am 
But I tried playing with only this mod and the focuses dont work. You can try it yourself if you dont believe me
but otherwise great mod so thanks:steamthumbsup:

@silent_reader: Hi. All this mod does is re-ordering AI strategy for choosing focuses. So AI CZE chooses focuses in this order:
CZE_industrial_legacy #3/36
CZE_favor_czechs_1 #5/36
CZE_favor_czechs_2 #7/36
CZE_favor_czechs_3 #10/36

CZE_political_direction #12/36
CZE_arms_exports_1 #2/37

#vanilla path
CZE_democratic_bastion #4/37
CZE_fortification_studies #6/37
CZE_sudeten_1 #9/37
CZE_sudeten_2 #12/37
CZE_strategy_decisions #2/38
CZE_trust_in_the_west #4/38
CZE_sudeten_3 #6/38
CZE_military_research_institute #9/38
CZE_military_aeronautical_institute #10/38
CZE_air_is_our_sea #12/38
CZE_armour_bonus_1 #1/39
CZE_fallback_line #3/39
CZE_arms_exports_2 #6/39

This is due to make sure AI choose CZE_armour_bonus_1 focus before German conquer to have LT vz. 38 tanks.

This mod does not change fort focuses at all
