Did you intend to have no engineers on map or no ability to purchase and deploy them?

Hello developer. I made a custum map scenario on your mod. I t is in the link bellow. Perhaps you will include it or perhaps not. Either way great mod.

Ah, makes sense. I'll wait till you re-balance and just base my stats off of yours.
Chrys131  [author] 22 Jul, 2023 @ 1:07am 
@MrProfilen Hi, the first thing is that I will end up redoing probably 80% of the unit stats in the future. Btw I tried for the most part to base myself on real data. For example for artillry I gave it 1 range for something like 20km irl. I don't remember how I did it for example for tanks and planes and that's exactly why I want to rebalance everything a bit
MrProfilen 21 Jul, 2023 @ 5:55pm 
G'day mate. How do you determine balance stats for modern units? I've been thinking of starting work on some modern OOBs, but I wasn't sure how to balance them and keep them in line with your OOBs.

@Benjamin It is planned but after I finish working on the 2.0 version of the Napoleonic Wars

ah ok, I'll fix it
Kazu 3 Apr, 2023 @ 3:36pm 
Chrys131 when i put them on the map a question mark will appear on that division
Chrys131  [author] 31 Mar, 2023 @ 11:41pm 
They're not working?
Kazu 31 Mar, 2023 @ 3:12pm 
please fix the russian paratroopers
Sean2111 21 Jan, 2023 @ 5:34pm 
Ok thanks for reply.

If you get back to this in the future should be fun.
Chrys131  [author] 21 Jan, 2023 @ 6:23am 
I'm now working on a Vic3 mod so no for the moment
Sean2111 21 Jan, 2023 @ 12:00am 
Are you still going to add China's Units?
FrightNight 26 Dec, 2022 @ 3:48pm 
i will check it in the next days:steamthumbsup:
Chrys131  [author] 7 Oct, 2022 @ 4:00pm 
I fixed the countries not showing in the list with the latest update of the mod
DazaKiwi 7 Oct, 2022 @ 2:37pm 
Thanks for your reply boromir. Thanks for the screen shots. Yes I did have the mod loaded properly. I can see all the factions with the dot now. I started with choosing 1990 as the year and could see them, and changed it to 2020 and could also see them, inc .China. And i can also see them in the Map Editor now too. Not sure if the latest HOS updated helped with that or the modder also did an update. But glad have that sorted.
Sean2111 6 Oct, 2022 @ 3:13am 
Have you got the Mod Ticked and did you click APPLY?
Then for date the 3 armies ,.Russia,.USA,.Ukraine should all come up without picking a date. They have a dot in front of their names and are at top of country list.
I picked 1990,1,1 as date.
They do work.
Just started a new random Russia vs USA

Maybe this will help you.
I did pick teams too ,axis versus allies
DazaKiwi 6 Oct, 2022 @ 1:49am 
I just tried a random battle with this mod, not seeing .ukraine or .usa in the list of nations, i set the year to 2022 and also tried 2020. Cannot see them in the editor either, whereas before i could only see .Ukraine now none- and i used the year 2022 and tried 2020.

What settings did you use boromir for your random battle?

When i loaded the Official maps for this mod, there was no nations selected but i could see the units on the map and in the buy unit store.
Sean2111 5 Oct, 2022 @ 11:01pm 
Random Battle for
Ukraine
USA
Russia
all seems OK now.
Thank you very much.
I did notice a new army though -China ,looking forward to their equipment as well.
Sean2111 4 Oct, 2022 @ 9:48pm 
How can I play Modern Warfare with a random battle? The Ukraine Army seems all Ok but the enemy if I pick a random Country ,seems to have all stats as NA and it does not show a specific unit picture either and they are destroyed instantly upon attack by Ukraine units.
What year do I pick ,I picked 2020 ,2022 for example.

Is there some way I can make an edit myself so I can play Random Battle Generator using even just 1 modern army against Ww2 Army or else 2 Modern Armies?
In LockNload for example I match up fantasy battles between WW2 Army and Modern Army and get a lot of enjoyment out of it and wanted to do the same here.
Chrys131  [author] 27 Sep, 2022 @ 6:02am 
@DazaKiwi
1) The F-15 should have less MP
2) Yes it happens also to me
3) I just checked and the MTU-72 has the same "properties" as the base game engineers

I'm going to fix 1 and 2 asap
DazaKiwi 26 Sep, 2022 @ 1:00pm 
Also with the MTU-72 i wasn't able to place a supply depot anywhere. But i could place mines.
Chrys131  [author] 26 Sep, 2022 @ 6:15am 
I'll check these things tomorrow
DazaKiwi 25 Sep, 2022 @ 11:06pm 
Also i tried to create a map/scenario with your mod and could only see .Ukraine units available to place, .Russia or .USA was not in the list of Nations to choose.
DazaKiwi 25 Sep, 2022 @ 6:57pm 
Is the 3rd F-15A suppose to have a range of 59 tiles? the other fighter planes have half that, so wondering if this is a mistake.
Chrys131  [author] 25 Sep, 2022 @ 3:34am 
Yes it's the MTU-72. The IMR-2 is a minesweeper unit yes
DazaKiwi 25 Sep, 2022 @ 12:57am 
Sorry i didnt know what a Ponteer was. So it's the MTU-72 that you are talking about? Also is the IMR-2 for clearing mines?
Chrys131  [author] 25 Sep, 2022 @ 12:40am 
They're not called ponteers, in the tanks category you can see that some of the units have a "bridge" instead of the tank main gun
DazaKiwi 25 Sep, 2022 @ 12:28am 
Sorry i don't see an unit called Ponteer. I presume this is supposed to infantry?
Chrys131  [author] 21 Sep, 2022 @ 8:14am 
@DazaKiwi
1) The engineers are the ponteer units
2) The supply plane works the same as the base game
DazaKiwi 20 Sep, 2022 @ 7:40pm 
Is the Supply Plane for refueling your other planes anywhere on the map?
DazaKiwi 20 Sep, 2022 @ 3:56pm 
Are there Engineer units (or named something else) for Ukraine? that will enable us to place mines and supply depots etc
Chrys131  [author] 5 Sep, 2022 @ 2:11am 
Maybe it was a plain tile with a victory point
DazaKiwi 5 Sep, 2022 @ 1:34am 
You know the after turn messages that appear to the right of the screen, often there might be one or two of them- especially if you have lost a unit. I noticed it saying "Plain was lost" is this suppose to say "Plane was lost"?
Chrys131  [author] 4 Sep, 2022 @ 11:43pm 
?
DazaKiwi 4 Sep, 2022 @ 9:57pm 
Is "Plain was lost" a typo? the after-report bubbles on the right when starting a new turn.
Chrys131  [author] 4 Sep, 2022 @ 3:47pm 
@Krev I'm working on the WW1 mod now but yes I will continue this mod too
Krev 4 Sep, 2022 @ 6:06am 
Great mod, thank you.

Are you still working on it ?
starfire 23 Aug, 2022 @ 5:08pm 
Can you please add Germany
Chrys131  [author] 7 Aug, 2022 @ 4:32am 
Eheh
омеgа омега 7 Aug, 2022 @ 1:25am 
I see a China folder is that possibly a sign of future Playable Country('s)?.
Chrys131  [author] 1 Aug, 2022 @ 10:57pm 
@Scum Hi ty :). I should check but I'm pretty sure I added victory conditions, they should be under the Objective tab. If they're not there I'll fix them today. For MP I don't really now, maybe not the best map imo
Scum 1 Aug, 2022 @ 8:13pm 
wow, what a great mod. this has potential to be better than the original game. Playing map 1, I have a couple of questions. I tried both sides, and the game does not end even if you take out all the cities and enemy units. Also, what are the victory conditions? Do you think this is a MP map (even fight?)
Chrys131  [author] 17 Jul, 2022 @ 10:25am 
A hex based game like this one wouldn't work trying to represent combined arms. Games like HoI4 are better for this role. About the BTR being represented as amor I can't really do much since I can't modify the game's UI
Apocalypse 17 Jul, 2022 @ 10:17am 
One of the challenges about a game like Hex of Steel is that they rarely represent COMBINED ARMS Teams - IE - A real life unit isn't JUST BTR's - it includes dismounted infantry / motorized infantry.

I was really hoping this mod would do that.

Also - BTR's are represented as ARMOR when using NATO icons versus their correct designation as motorized armor.

Doing an update to change the store icon to modern era style
Erica Hartmann 16 Jun, 2022 @ 11:26am 
Great work !
and,Slava Ukraini !
Sgt. Steiner 9 Jun, 2022 @ 10:16pm 
Great job on this. I can only imagine the work involved with the graphics icons alone. You do the developer of this game justice! Best wishes.
