1.06: Germany manpower too high?

[joerd9]

Hi all,

I noticed that with the new patch the german manpower is at 1.800 (sic!) at the start of the 1936 scenario. Is this really WAD?

I remember the starting MP for previous versions was clearly below 1K and that worked out just fine, it forced quality over quantity and you could be sure that an AI Germany had manpower issues by 1942/43 which was perfect.

You have to live with less MP from the provinces. The modifier is reduced from 1.0 to 0.66.

1,800 seems way too high to me also, but that's the number that made it through the beta tests....

By the way, if you want a tough game as Germany -- which also uses the previous starting German MP pool of 850 -- try out the Third Reich AoD Mod.

su and uk has more manpower too.
Daily gain is lowered considerably.
and a factory now consumes 5mp (which was less in previous versions afaik)
so balance is fine in multiplayer imho

OK, thank you. I'll see how this turns out in the long run.

That was what I expected to tell them, my english seems to be a little bit bad .
