This is one area where Advanced Tactics is absolutely better - the ability to modify your OOBs

<r> The way I think of it is: The logistics system is somewhat like Advanced Tactics, but also somewhat not.<br/>
<br/>
In AT, you needed to put trucks & trains in SHQs. Then the SHQs would move supplies and reinforcements to units. The SHQs would get the supplies directly from city production.<br ...

Pull system is how Advanced Tactics works. Therefore I am in favor of it.

GR units are the best units possible, until you max out your tech, I believe

Although they should be escorted by other units to tank hits for them, because it will take at least 200 turns before you can build anything similar to them

<t> Moon - roughly 20 to 40, depending on hex features that each major power is able to find.<br/>
<br/>
Otherwise - many, many, many more turns than that.<br/>
<br/>
For fastest possible games, you should start with 2 armies per zone and tech level 5, so that you skip straight to tank warfare ...

<t> Would be neat to have:<br/>
- Truck with Machinegun Mount<br/>
- Truck with RPG Mount<br/>
<br/>
Not APCs, as they have no armor option. Or they would have only 0 / 5mm / 10mm armor options, from bolted-on plating.<br/>
<br/>
The ability to do drive-by shootings would make them better than ...

Now that's what I call "bed bugs"

<t> What I want most is a map & regime editor. I.E. the scenario editor of Advanced Tactics except that I understand that the equivalent of the “masterfile” may be locked.<br/>
<br/>
For UI improvements:<br/>
– Supply path view similar to Advanced Tactics.<br/>
– When you are asked about ...

<t> I like the Advanced Tactics system more, where there is always a best-possible-route flow from SHQs to sub HQs to divisions, and you can always trace the routes.<br/>
<br/>
Of course Advanced Tactics did not have the Zone or Civilian system, so don't know if that would be feasible in the ...

As long as the core engine keeps getting improved, it really doesn't matter what the setting is. I'm looking forward to Workname Empire more and more!

The comments on the blog post confirmed that the first game on the engine will not be historical.

Could it be the return of the Groschken Reich and the Atlantian Empire? It would have WW2 technology without having "German panzers"

Working name "Empire"

Could be anything from 30 Years War, to Napoleonic, to Franco-Prussian, to possibly even Russo-Japanese. But not WW1, because then there's the possibility that a German Panzer could exist.

<t> It may be theoretically possible, with some scripting, to implement resources realistically.<br/>
<br/>
First, you need a new LocType called "Refinery"<br/>
<br/>
Then, you make oil wells always produce an SFType called "Crude" which cannot move by itself<br/>
<br/>
Finally, on every turn ...

<t> All Humans setup:<br/>
- House Corrino - gets Sardaukar, who are matched only by Fremen<br/>
- House Harkonnen - gets more PPs due to their deviousness and trickery<br/>
- House Atreides - excellent morale<br/>
- Fremen - gets more water, and their adult warriors are a match for Sardaukar<br ...

<t> I don't know much about events scripting or graphics, but I would love to help with all the other details.<br/>
<br/>
These are all quick suggestions which I did not think too hard about:<br/>
<br/>
Moving spice fields: The AI is unlikely to be able to handle it. This assumes that moving ...

<t> In my experience against the AI, it's best to plan out defensive lines in which you will build fortifications, then plan out a forward attack force whose main purpose is to drive hard at critical production centers.<br/>
<br/>
Fuel will be very tight, so I always reserve airpower for use ...

<t> Line Division: 40 Rifles, 2 Machineguns, 2 Bazookas, 2 Mortars, 5 Horses<br/>
<br/>
Siege/Builder Division: 40 Engineers, 40 Rifles, 5 Horses<br/>
<br/>
Armored Division: 5 Light Tanks, 25 Rifles or 20 Rifles + 5 Machineguns<br/>
<br/>
Heavy Armored Division: 5 Medium Tanks, 20 Rifles, 5 ...

<t> I wouldn't say that the exact calculus for infantry on attack vs. defense is accurate, since there's still pinning hits, retreating hits, aiming at favorite targets, and numbers of attacks to take into consideration. Even though infantry on defense with entrenchment have an advantage, they still ...

<t> Quick question: are there any examples, in real history, of massive air stacks (i.e. a lot of aircraft on the same base being commanded by the same officer) being a bad idea?<br/>
<br/>
And anyways, the oil resource does a good job of preventing air superiority from being used for overpowering ...
