Eur 39 Hist Inf

Description
This Mod makes all Europe/Africa 1939 and later infantry unique to each country based on historical battalion and regimental tables of organization and equipment. Generally Mod infantry costs less and has more hit points than base game. Pre-1943 infantry is weak against tanks, as it was historically. 1943 and later infantry are often stronger than base game units. Major country units are typically stronger than minor country units. All foot mobile units have 3 MPs.

Stats changes were based on historical Tables of Organization and equipment. I assigned values to each type squad and crew served weapon then counted up the values times number of each and normalized them against the 1939 starting German light infantry.

Glad to hear you are enjoying the variety. My motivation was to provide infantry units unique to each country, and historically based, pretty much like all the other unit types.

So far I've tried it on the Overlord scenario with both sides and a couple of unhistorical multiplayer scenario maps with a few of my friends. The new stats create a unique dynamic between the different countries and it freshens things up a bit. I'm interested in how you decided what to change the stats to for each unit.

This is a fantastic mod and it really changes the gameplay for the better. You should update it to include the Pacific for the Japanese and Chinese units.
