Updated 5/30/17

As you all may know, there are a lot of bad and usable doctrines. This mod intends to balance and make more viable doctrines. If you all have any opinions please post in the comment section below. Additionally, I am making some early game balance changes to help minimized initial power differential

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=919072673

All
-All infiltration units has a 10 until spawn time and drops a yellowish flare at the start.
-All infiltration unit's grenades now start on cooldown.
This will help reduce the squad wipe nature of these squads and allow additional counter-play.

-Starting fuel is now 0

-All AT snares range is now 10 from 15~18
Due to the over preforming nature of this abilities in when fighting initial and early vehicles. There range is reduced allow more reasonable play and maneuvering.

Soviets
-Starting manpower increased from 390 to 430 to meet other factions initial resources.
-Both T1 and T2 cost now 200 manpower and 20 fuel
This will help depley the slightly over performing penals in order to match their timing and effectiveness.
-Molotovs and AT grenades are now bundled together which also includes access to the Engineer's Flamethrower

In order to make doctrines with out elite infantry, a T0 Non Doctrinal Commissar has been added.
High Commissar
-5 Man squad
-Has Ostheer's Officer munitions for inspire aura
-Vet 1: OKW's Sturm Officer force retreat.
-Initial Commissar has a long deploy time

KV-1
-Now non doctrinal T4
-Health increased from 800 to 1200. (maybe too much)
-MGs now equal to the T34's
The KV-1 will enable a damage sponge for AT guns and Tank Destroyers
This does not overlap with the t34\76 since of the price difference, and the 85 has a much better gun.
The KV-1 call in is replaced with Red Banner T34/85s

Red Banner T34/85s
-One time call in like the Tiger Ace
-2 are called in at a time
-700 manpower, 260 fuel (not sure this is right, might be too low)
-in comparison to the standard T34/85
Target size is 20 vs 22
Health is 900 vs 800
180 Armor vs 160
Force to only use the Red Banner Skin

KV-8
Now makes available a flame upgrade to the KV-1
costs 100 munition

Ml-20 Howitzer
Now costs 400 Manpower and 60 fuel from 600 manpower

Partisan Tank Hunter
-Now Partisan Fighters
-4 man squad
-240 Manpower
-.91 Target Size
-Equiped with Mosin Nagants equal to guards
-Can be upgraded with Ppsh's with access to a Smoke Grenade
-Can be upgraded with a Panzershreck with access to a AT grenade (if researched at HQ)
These Newer Partisans can be upgraded to either former partisans. This will help prevent the cheese squad wipe nature. The intial partisans are akin to grenadiers, weak but have camo.

Partisan Smg
now the Booby Trap ability

Shocks
-cost now 360 from 390
-Reinforcement cost is now 30 from 32.5

Salvage kits
-now cost 50 mun from 100 mun
(like you can make a profit for that cost)

M42 Light AT Gun
-the main gun is adjusted so it fight infantry.

Soviet Shock Army Redone
Before

There were just too many overlapping abilities in this doctrine so I took the opportunity to create my own doctrine as a place holder.
"Sabotage Tactics"

Red Banner T34/85s
Combat engineer Salvage kits
PMD-6 Anti infantry mines
PMD-6M Light At Mines
Partisan Saboteurs

-Can be upgrade to Salvage kits.
-can lay, both PMD - 6 mines and TM 35 mines

B4
Soviets have trouble with heavily armored opponents, additionally the B4 is an RNG Machine which tends roll bad and inconsistent. The B4 also has a potentially over powered direct fire mode. I have reworked it so now it provide the heavy at role and be reliable.

-costs 500 manpower and 100 fuel
-16 population

-can no longer decrewed
-Now has a auto attack to be very effective vs vehicles.
-Auto attacks are useful vs infantry but has a generally high scatter
-range 100
-Max models is set to 3. (no full health squad wipes)
-Aoe radius is 6
-Lethal radius range is around 2
-has a prioritized vehicle fire.

Vet:1
-100 munitions
-arty barrage: 3 shots
-range 200
-Max models is set to 3. (no full health squad wipes)
-Aoe radius is 8
-Lethal radius range is around 5

Soviet defense tactics

-Tank traps doctrinal ability replaced with B4


Munitions to Fuel Airdrop changed
Affects Soviet industry and

-Now a Zis 6 (US6) Supply truck
-200 manpower

-Able to be upgrade to a Katyusha for 200 manpower 50 fuel, but requires t4 to be built

Assault Guards
-4, PPshs removed

-or able to upgrade to two bazookas


Guards
-Guards no longer come with PTRS upgrade
-Guards can either upgrade to PTRS or DP 28s, not both
-Guards PTRS upgrade now adds 3 PTRS instead of 2
This will allow Guards to either specialized into anti infantry or anti tank and not be a mix of both.

M4C Shermans

-Like T34/85s now they must be built in T4



Ostheer/Wehrmacht

-Swapped positions with the MG 42 and Grenadier. Faust still require T1
-T1 now costs 200, 20

Due to the major cost in teching and the concept of this faction is suppose to be more of the early war, big changes were made.


T4 is no longer available and units are divided up.
Battlephase 3 now costs 200 manpower, 60 fuel

Pak 40
- now in T1


T2
In the live version, it sits in a weird spot it comes out either to late for some vehicles and still is technically required to build

-no longer requires battle 1
-cost increased to 40 fuel from 20

222
In live game, it usually spells instant death to earlier vehicles will tend to still be too inferior to the next level of vehicles.

-222 2cm cannon upgrade reverted and now requires Battlephase one in order to upgrade.
-Fuel cost decrease from 30 to 10

Instead of being a squad wiper now it can attack your opponents economy by breaking supply

Artillery Officer

-Now are alone 250 call in at 0 CP
-costs 150 manpower 10 fuel
-starts on a 60 second cool down

I like generally like your ideas, especially for USF, so I took a quick look at some of the changes in CheatMod. That's the list of Bugs, Inconsistencies I found:

USF:
IR Marksmen:
-Their ability range is too high
-Then ordered to attack (right click and attack move) something they move close in, so what the guy with the carbine can shoot, completely negating the long range
Greyhound:
-The IR Sweep ability is available at vet 0
-Pack Howie for 100 mun is too cheap, for the power it has
WC51:
-Wrong Icon then upgraded with 50cal (it shows mg42) same thing with Sherman
-A firing arc is shown then clicking on the vehicle, but there is no suppression -> confusing
Sherman:
-105 upgrade has Icon of arty barrage
-sherman keeps it mobility even then upgraded to a bulldozer
- you can invest now 260mun in a single tank -> change some upgrade cost to fuel
-wrong voice line then upgrading (always says "mount that 50")

Soviet:
Shock Army:
-Revolver has no shooting animation and flows behind the back
-Red Banner T34 are way too cheap for what they offer also wrong call in icon

Ostheer:
250 Halftrack:
-Wrong voice line then call on to the field (announcer always says something about mortar halftrack)
-even then not upgraded the mortar is still in it
-then upgraded the mortar has no crew, so it fires on its own
-then upgraded to mortar halftrack wrong icon

So yea that's it for now, your mod needs a lot of refining, but the concept behind it sounds great, so keep it up!
Also, you shouldn't split your mod in two parts. First it's confusing what exactly changed (due to unclear patch notes) and second many changes only work if you have them all at once.

New Update

With the Recent talk about Lend Lease and other assortments, the patch is more focused on it.

Additionally, the MAIN WORKSHOP LINK HAS BE CHANGED.

Soviets

Munitions to Fuel Airdrop changed

-Now a Zis 6 (US6) Supply truck
-200 manpower
-Has the same abilities as the Ostheer's Opel Blitz.
-Able to be upgrade to a Katyusha for 200 manpower 50 fuel, but requires t4 to be built

Assault Guards
-4, PPshs removed
-Able to upgrade to 4 Thompsons
-or able to upgrade to two bazookas

This will help with the theme of using allied equipment

M4C Shermans

-Like T34/85s now they must be built in T4

Shocks
To make doctrines with shocks more adaptable, shocks are gaining an upgrade to turn the PPSHs into Svt 40 rifles

-75 munitions

Guards
-Guards no longer come with PTRS upgrade

This will allow Guards to either specialized into anti infantry or anti tank and not be a mix of both.


Ostheer

Big update

Ostheer

Due to the major cost in teching and the concept of this faction is suppose to be more of the early war, big changes were made.


T4 is no longer available and units are divided up.
Battlephase 3 now costs 200 manpower, 60 fuel

Pak 40
- now in T1


T2
In the live version, it sits in a weird spot it comes out either to late for some vehicles and still is technically required to build

-no longer requires battle 1
-cost increased to 40 fuel from 20

222
In live game, it usually spells instant death to earlier vehicles will tend to still be too inferior to the next level of vehicles.

-222 2cm cannon upgrade reverted and now requires Battlephase one in order to upgrade.
-Fuel cost decrease from 30 to 10
-New 223 radio equipment upgrade. This reveals nearby units on the mini map without line of sight. Additionally it plays messages without audio of what your opponent has built.
-upgrades are exclusive.

Puma now requires Battlephase one in order to meet timings of other light vehicles.

Panzerwerfer is now available in T2 with Battle Phase 3


T3

-cost is now 200 and 60 fuel
-with small some changes Ostheer can now field thier tanks a little bit earlier than other factions, but they have been changed a bit

StuG and Panzer 4
-now both start out as the short barrel version
-StuG now cost 280 manpower, 65 fuel
-Panzer 4 now cost 300 manpower, 80 fuel
-Both can be upgraded to the long barrel version for 100 manpower 50 fuel.

Panther is now available in t3, just requires Battle phase 3

Puma (Captured t34/76) and Stug E call in now replaced with build-able Brummbär in T3


USF

M1 AT gun
-moved to initial upgrade in t1 to match other timing of AT guns


M20 Utility Car
-moved to initial upgrade in t1
-crew's bazooka removed

Pack Howie

Major Tech

-E8 Cost increased to 420 manpower 155 fuel from 380 manpower, 140 fuel.
Penetration increased from 155/165/200 to 175/190/240

OKW

Kubel
Due to its overperforming for its cost, some slight add adjustments were made.

-MG removed
-MG upgrade added
-Recon upgrade added, increases vision range and enable it's usual vet 1 maphack ability.
-population is now 3 from 4
-cost is now 150 from 210

UKF
With the nerfs to infantry sections, I created some more doctrinal elite infantry options.

Recovery Engineers Reworked
-Now costs 350 manpower
-5 man squad (still benefit from bolster)
-Received accuracy is .8
-equipped with lee enfields
-lee enfields are equal to tommies but damage is 10 from 16
-still retain all recovery engineer abilities
-unable to pick up slot upgrades but are able to pick from 3 upgrades

-minesweeper, able to be put away like Sturmpioneers
-Heavy Engineers. Gain two Vickers k's for 120 munitions. Does not require Anvil.
-Demolition upgrade. Gain three piats, and access to heavy gammon bombs. 120 munitions

With the extremely early access to the AEC in comparison to other faction's light vehicles and bofors potential timing some adjustments are made.

Anvil and Hammer are now in T1
Anvil now grants access to Bofors
Hammer now grants access to the AEC.
