Profile of Ægion

If you want to try it out, my mod is in the signature block. The notes are pretty out dated, so ignore them. I messed with all factions There is one important bug: If you have too many OKW AI, then the game will stutter. I think it is related that the OKW AI wants to move the setup up trucks. Two AI seems not have a problem but seven AI will.

Based on reading all comments before, I have some questions and answers. Once again you can see what I am talking about in my mod, but it feels like I have shilling a bit too much for it.

Pathfinders (and other light infantry)
Pathfinders are somewhat of a glass cannon seeing they are a 4 man squad with 1 target size. With two bars and two scoped rifles, they have a really high chance of dropping bars. They have great damage potential but a very squishy. They do also have doctrinal issues as well. They have an overlapping role with paratroopers and the recon support ones are weaker with one scoped rifle. They have to both compete with riflemen and paratroopers for their role. This is why I made these changes in my mod.

Pathfinders:
Manpower - 240
Target size - .8
Start with no slot items
-Their carbines are quite good. In this new stock state they are comparable to grenadiers. They have a lot of possibilities now as well. Such as now grabbing a pair of bazookas for an effective tank ambusher.

Can be upgraded with their two scoped rifles which have 40 range instead of 35 range while their carbines retain the 35 range. Gain the assassinate ability.
-This same for all the light infantry in my mod. This way a moving does not mean high damage but high support for other combat units. With no one man snipers anymore, in my mod, a single target snipe ability could be quite good when pushing into support weapons. The assassinate ability cost munitions. Scoped rifles consumes both weapon slots.

Scott and late game arty.
I have always found the Scott in a weird place. It does not feel like it should be in that tier. I am not a fan of the Calliop to be non doctrinal either. If I put the 105 in that tier, then I am compelled to swap the Jackson with at dedicated 76 as well. (Got have the selection of Sherman, Sherman, and Sherman) What about the M7 Priest? Like all howitzers in my mod, I made it have an auto attack. Historically, the M7 was used in both direct and indirect roles. Right now I have the auto attack as a mix of a Brumbar and an ISU. I could mess around and tune it. It can retain a long range barrage ability while still provide a direct(ish) fire support for anti infantry usage. It would still have lower health than a Brumbar but have better range. The Scott could be moved to the Infantry that arrives earlier (5-6 CP?), retain some old stats, and have great mobility.

If you want to have some fun, my mod somehow make the game more Symmetrical and Asymmetrical at the time.

Cool, lots of great changes! Lots of things I had the same idea in for my mod.

Honestly, it was your 2016, 2015?, mod that really got me into modding. In which my downtime during my deployment to Kuwait, in where I had a lot of time, I really started to understand modding in general.

Out of curiosity, what do you think about my Ostheer Battlephase system versus current? I have always looked at the Battlephase system as teching with extra steps while mine changes it into an escalation system for unlocking new items in multiple buildings.
