Update 22/10/22: Mod isn't dead, just been slow going. New faction/s underway. This update includes ZiS-3 light field howitzers for the Soviets.
Hotfix 21/11/22: Fixed missing sprite causing crash when playing with Spitfire. New sprite for Mk XIV added. Thanks Karl Adler
General changes/features:
- More of a focus on infantry combat than the base game. Most infantry can move slightly faster
- Detailed/varied infantry and vehicle sprites
- Infantry weapons are more specific. E.g, instead of bolt-action rifle, there is the Kar98k and Mosin, etc
- Most heavy weapons, including crewed anti-tank guns, can now move (slowly!).
- Overall, weapon ranges have been shortened, usually due to the timeframe of the mod
- SMGs and MGs are generally more lethal
- Formations are larger and often contain forced purchases for historical/balance reasons. This is an experimental change that I'm looking for feedback for,
especially regarding how well the AI uses them. E.g, Soviet rifle companies contain AT-rifle units and Fallschirmjaeger have light mortars in company formations
- Tanks have worse vision, with HQ tank units having comparatively better vision.
- Radios are less common, especially for Soviet and Japanese units.
- Motorised units are almost always mounted in trucks
- And more..

I'm openly looking for constructive feedback, so there's your chance to influence the development of the mod.
Enjoy.
