SCW under RUS Engine

si no fuera porque tengo que ir 5 dias a la semana a trabajar!

Muy bien. ¿Qué características tiene Durruti? ¿El color de fondo es por ser anarquista? Si éste tiene dos estrellas, ¿quienes van a tener tres en el juego, aparte de Franco? Bonitos gráficos de aviones, por cierto.

English:

I like so much your work. Beautiful planes.
What are Durruti's traits? Is the gray background colour for being an anarchist? What generals are going to have ***, apart from Franco, of course?

[Leibst]

The two stars is a mistake, should be one.The background is also wrong, atm is black for the anarchist. He is beloved by the army and charismatic. Thanks i also like so much the planes of that war.

My idea is that generals that commanded in the war armies will have the 3 stars or will be promotable to 3 stars. Im still not sure.

advancing with texts and events....

One of the first events is the arrival of the Savoias that Italy sent.

One question Leibstandarte,

In RUS, planes are, at least in my opinion, not terribly effecitve and more of a gimmick, really. Which is fine for the time period.

By the SCW, and especially towards its end, however, planes were becoming a decisive tool on the battlefield and the lessons the Luftwaffe learning in Spain were later successfully applied during WW2 (at least until they decided to take on the RAF, but that is another matter).

Have you modified anything at this stage to reflect the growing importance of planes?

Hi deguerra, you are absolutely right. airplanes was decisive in every battle, even from the start of the war.
At the moment there are no changes made but i have some ideas that i have to develope and test but still cant reveal

[Ironclad61]

Well, relative decisive... more for a morale factor than for a material factor... for example in the Ebro battle nacionales were unable to close the river for republicanos supplies... and in the well prepared defensive positions they have a very limited impact in direct damage done... other question is the morale factor ummm maybe could be interesting add a bonus in air units to affect more enemy´s morale but i dont know if game support this... maybe increasing the number or attacks they can do in a turn... this force to enemy move fighters to cut off large rounds of attacks, if enemy fail on this he can suffer a bigger drop in combat value.

[Leibst]

these past days i've been solving a problem with the dates, and still dont understand what happens but the date doesnt show correctly.
Also while testing first turns some other issues have appeared and im working on them with the excels files so there´s no visual advance.

[Leibst]

A new screen, in it you can see the issue with the date, i cant understand why the date isnt ok. But its just the text, the valor is ok, the game works ok with the date.

Following closely your progress since I have my own little project for RUS engine/DB (Russo-Japanese War) but don't have the time yet to begin the work ^^

[Leibst]

Adding more flavour events....

[ATTACH]20387[/ATTACH]

[Leibst]

1st Republican Division.

The idea is three Brigades for each Division, three Bataillons for each Brigade, and artillery that could be of three different types, 75mm, 105mm or 150mm.

[ATTACH]20457[/ATTACH]

Dont care about the stars and values, is just a test version.

[Leibst]

More leaders portraits.

[ATTACH]20482[/ATTACH]

[PhilThib]

If I may make a suggestion, you should use greyish background tones for leaders portraits for NAC faction (e.g. Beorlegui) and keep the reddish-pinkish background for the REP faction. My 2 cents

[Leibst]

Yes, you're right i should have done as you say from the beggining,

[Halberdier]

Leibstadarte si vas a cambiar colores te sugiero dar un tono "gris azulado" para el retrato de los oficiales y las unidades nacionales podrían tener también un tono "azul" para distinguirlas mejor en los pantallazos un bando de otro. Y mantener el tono sepia de los oficiales y fondo rojo o rosado para unidades republicanas.

Gran trabajo. Ánimos.

[Leibst]

ok, new screen with the leaders as said, grey for Nacs, redish for Reps. Hope you like it.

[ERISS]

, new screen with the leaders as said. Hope you like it.

That's better, but you were too shy on making the backgrounds different. The faces too have to be all greyed (or other) (mainly the red NAC ones).
Maybe let this be probably made latter by a fan.
