First of all, thank you guys for this great mod.
I just downloaded the newest version, but it seems, that my Units can not attack enmey troops. The just can support the attack, but not engaged in combat and yes, i already got the event, that I have full military control. In earlier versions this problem never appeared, but now i have it with my NCR and Enclave campaign (the year is something around 2250)
Is this a bug, or a do I need to wait a little longer for an event I did not knwo from the previous versions`?
Hi buddy, check the first post of the thread again. It seems as though you are not using the correct version of DH with new exe.

It is hard to break a strong defensive position in this mod. Here are some tactics I use:
- Try to attack from higher infrastructure provinces that your enemy. Break off the attack after a few days when you're losing. You will recover Org faster than them. Then attack again. So with waves of attacks you will slowly grind them down.
- The AI often runs out of manpower. So you can whittle down opposing unit strength levels at the same time if you reinforce faster than the enemy army.
- Air power can be brutal. You can bomb reinforcing units moving behind his lines into oblivion. And the air power can really tip a battle in your favour. It can help if you get the AI to move into a province then defend it so they don't get their defensive bonus.
- Of course, try to maximimise your combat odds. Attack from many provinces with high level leaders in good weather.
- Try to sucker out some of the enemy units in a strong defensive province. For that, you should aim to allow them to grab some Wastelands provinces if possible. They might move units there. Sometimes you can let them take some of your provinces to thin out their lines, then suddenly attack on the main point you want to capture.
- Try to out tech your enemy and upgrade your land army. If your model level is higher I notice it makes a big difference in tough battles.
- The mod is designed that attachments should be useful. I always brigade my units. It should be IC efficient if you calculate the costs vs the stats you get. Look for more Soft Attack. Machineguns are good.
- It's good to have fast motor raider units to dash in and capture a province quickly. They will get beaten back but you transfer control of that province to you. You can rob enemy IC this way as battles see saw back and forth across a province.
Robot Nation is a hard nation to play. One province minors like Broken Hills and New Reno are tough no matter what. They can't usually expand and they sit with huge army stacks in one province. You need to out tech them then make waves of massive offensives to wear them down.
Hope you enjoy the struggle as the Robot!
