i always felt it was too easy to mount amphibious assaults in HoI -- how would i go about modding the following:
1. units (except marines) suffer heavier loss of org. while loaded on transports. loss of org. shouldn't be a 'one-time' hit but should increase over time. i.e. crossing the Atlantic (USA, Canada) to mount a landing in occupied europe -- those troops should arrive in pretty bad shape, not spic-&-span and ready to fight. bottom line: i'd like to make it such that, if you are going to lauch amphib. invasion, your points of embarkation and unloading had better be as close as possible to avoid debilitating penalties: Dover to Calais, not South Africa to Calais.
2. heavier penalities for amphib. combat for all units (marines less so than others, of course).
3. make it take much longer for troops to load/unload off of transports. it should take longer than 24 hrs. for 6 divisions to unload onto a beach, even an undefended one.
any suggestions?
