Historical Poland: National Focus Tree & More для Hearts of Iron IV
If you have trouble after the 1.8 Launcher release in updating this mod, delete the "mods_registry.json" file in your documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron IV folder.
Historical Poland is a mod produced from a lot of in-depth research into the Polish Second Republic's situation in the WW2 era while being designed to plug seamlessly into the Vanilla Hoi4 experience. If you are looking for an in-depth country focus mod with detailed history and plausible history, then this product is for you.
The Polish DLC "UNITED AND READY" must be active in the launcher for this to work. No DLCs are required, some features may be disabled without them. Will not be compatible with other mods that modify the province map.
We highly recommend a neutral or democratic playthrough for the best experience as this mod focuses on actual/very plausible history.
We have recently updated for Man the Guns 1.8.1. Please let us know if you encounter issues--don't be shy to write to us in the steam workship comments section.
-National Focus Trees for:
---Poland (Full)
---Latvia (democratic/neutrality only)
-Land Combat Improvements
-New Infantry & Artillery Technologies
-Singleplayer AI fixes
-------------
Latest Update - 12/27/2019 - Land Combat Overhaul & Technology Icons
-------------
New Artillery Technologies:
---Artillery is now sectioned into 3 categories, Light, Medium and Heavy
-----Light artillery is mobile enough to keep pace with infantry divisions without penalty. It can also act an improvised anti-tank platform against light tanks.
-----Medium artillery has more soft attack but will slow down divisions with movement penalties in rough terrain.
-----Heavy artillery adds fierce firepower to units but will slow down divisions greatly in all terrain types in addition to being expensive.
---Consider having a mix of fast and slow troops to achieve victory.
New Infantry Technologies:
---Infantry weapons are now sectioned into different categories: Bolt-action Rifles, SMGs, Semi-automatic Rifles, and Assault Rifles.
---We have gone through and consistently changed every single country to consistently have SMGs, Semi-autos, etc into proper technology slots. New GFX icons have been made for this.
---In the early phase of the game, all countries either have a prototype SMG or semi-automatic rifle. This weapon is expensive but could be used to equip your foreign volunteer units.
---A new type of special forces is now represented called light infantry which specializes in defensive stat bonuses for forests, jungles, and marshes. For Poland the Border Protection Corps are now categorized as this new Light Infantry Type.
Infantry techs are now setup to follow a historical path of reduced cost instead of better combats stats. Newer models of equipment tend to reduce the price of submachine guns and semi-automatic weapons.
Miscellaneous
---Added WITU, the Polish armaments development research institute as an infantry equipment designer.
---Starachowice Works and Cegielski Artillery Factory tech companies now apply their bonuses to future researched equipment instead of immediately.
---Polish mountaineer templates have been reworked
---4 new Polish music tracks have been added (1 communist)
GFX:
---Many new general portraits have been reworked.
---Added airplane pictures for the LWS-1 and RWD 22 naval bombers
---Courtesy of artistic collaboration with Polish Flavor Icons, we now have new mechanized, motorized, light-spaa and other various assorted Polish technology icons
---Several new national focus tree icons have been added in the political tree.
AI
---The ai has been taught to make use of medium and heavy artillery
---Italy will be less likely to declare war on Poland and France in the early years of HOI4
---The Czech AI will be less likely to fold to Poland during the focus "Pressure Czechoslovakia". Geopolitical events such as surrendering Sudetenland or having Hungary in Poland's faction will greatly decrease their willingness to fight.
