14 to 7

Post by HOTEC »

Historically, France surrendered in 6 weeks.
I fail to achieve it in 3 turns.
I want to try 7 days per turn.
Beside the gameDates.txt to be amended, what else do I need to change?

In the editor you can change days per turn under the main settings.

Take it as a challenge to figure out why you can't take them out by June. Learn how to take out France faster.

Typically a good player vs a good players will be around July, maybe August.

A good player vs weak player can take them out June-July.

A weak player vs a good player September.

I will not let the A.I. make the same mistakes the Allies did ;)

I would like to set the game to 7 days to make it last longer, I wanted to ask if the game remains the same or if the AI ​​does not adapt to the 7 day turns breaking the game, thanks.

Never tested. It should act the same.

I am confident the game will not run well at all changing the days...

To much Production...

IF you cut the production down by 25% then likely it would.

Germany would easily max out their units before the attack on Russia...

For Warplan 2 7 day per turn and AI that respects history, if you can also create the World theater, in my opinion with the little that is around it could become a point of reference for Wargames.

I really have a lot of hope in Warplan2.

The two week game turns are I believe OK since one week turns would drag out a 1939 scenario forever. However, doubling the movement/combat steps for land units and perhaps tripling for air/sea units might produce a more 'realist' result.
