1914 scenario techs

[Baltasar]

Having played with all majors in 1.02, it seems that some of the 1914 techs can hardly be researched within 1914. Most obvious of these techs are the land doctrines but some others as well, ie Mountaineers spring to mind for most majors. This is apparently due to the high skill level required for these techs in combination with a lack of suifficiently qualified resarch teams.

Since this can probably be adressed rather easily, it'd be great if you guys could have a look at this and suggest / implement some change there.

Regarding '14 land doctrines, this has been already reported and probably solved with the next patch.

Regarding mountaineers, there are some country that historically have no interest in such units. For instance: USA has world-wide known marines as well as Italy has its mountaineers. Considering that marines are intended for WW2 warfare, you can easily fill the gap to unlock marines techs and forget the mountaineers.

Another example would be Germany, though. They did field a corps of mountaineers, yet have not suitable research team to research them.

Any idea when another patch will be available for the public?

Actually Germany has it (copied from ger TT file):

28;Jäger Kampfschule;100130;7;1900;1970;Airborne_Training;Mountain_Training;small_unit_tactics;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;x

EDIT: BTW this is the best TT of the game regarding commando units.

Strangely enough, I can't see it in 1.02 in 1914 scenario...

 

[alekseevic]

Found the issue. Germany in '14 scenario has U08 as tag and not GER. So, if look into the U08 TTs file, Jäger Kampfschule will born in '33. Here's the line:

855027;Jäger Kampfschule;100130;7;1933;1970;Airborne_Training;Mountain_Training;small_unit_tactics;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;x

Actually I don't really know why devs made this choice. I hope someone will take a look at this thread and drop an answer.

It's probably a bug, I guess. It will be corrected.
#1428

 

[Baltasar]

Hooray!

AC, any comment on the other techs or land doctrines in particular?

 

[^_AC_^]

I think Mountaineers are ok.
We may reduce the skill level needed for the land doctrines, we are still debating.
