German Panzer development ??

[unmerged(20340)]

Hi there

Can anyone explain why, when I chose to develop Pz III 30, 40, 50 mm i louse the abilities to develop Pz IV short 75.
I get the message that "I have chosen another path"

Kind regards

if you look at the description in each of the basic medium tanks it describes which other units are deactivated because of your choice of design.

While it would be nice from a players perspective to be allowed to field severel types of each categoy, it seriously weakens the AI as it will upgrade all of its tanks almost every time a new model is researced and therefore it has had to be done this way.

Would it be possible to put in a 'human-player only' tech that would unlock the other tank models?

Edit: 300th post.

in stony road mod i.e.
panzer 30mm
panzer 40mm
panzer 50mm

30mm panzer does not deactivate 40 or 50 mm .. only 40 mm deactivates 30mm but not 50 mm ....isnt it very logical??

Yes, and SR is very prone to the problem we described above.

why sholud it?

Its because if one doesnt deactivate the others then the ai will research them all one by one and spend ic upgrading all its armor units every 90-100 days when a new model becomes available. No sane player would do this and therefore the ai is completely crippled with constantly no armor on the front.

Since SR uses very high number of units, it's not that visible, but in case of CORE - it is.
