The enclosed Units.csv file contains a number of modifications and cannot be used with any other stock scenarios.
This mod should restore something resembling naval balance to WW1G and the British Royal Navy is unlikely to face annihilation after a mere ten or so combat rounds at the hands of an inferior High Seas Fleet. A number of values and modifiers have been changed to lessen the otherwise unstoppable power of the Kaiser’s dreadnoughts. As a small offset for the taming of the uber-battleships however, Austria-Hungary may now build U-Boats to add to the tonnage war.
Other naval changes include:
British Royal Navy:
- Most ship names should now have correct spelling.
- Scout Fleet is renamed BCF for Battle Cruiser Fleet
- Home Fleet is renamed Grand Fleet as it was on 4 August 1914
- Atlantic Fleet is renamed Channel Fleet as the former was based at Gibraltar.
- Only two Queen Elizabeth’s (QE and Warspite) are in commission at the start. The remainder should arrive as reinforcements at about their historical operational dates.
- None of the Revenge Class are in commission and all five must be built via the Shipyards.
- There is a new SS fleet in the Med named E-24.
- Losses up to April 1915 have been subtracted.
- The negative modifier to all RN combat rolls has been removed although the hard coded shell penalty remains.
French Navy:
- BB Jean Bart and AC Joan d’Arc were omitted from stock and have been added.
- War losses have been deleted.
Imperial German Navy
- BB Baden and Bayern have been removed from the Fleet and placed back into the Shipyard queue.
Regina Marina
- Order of Battle has been adjusted so BB Dante Alighieri is with the Conte Cavour’s.
- Both Andrea Doria’s require completion via the Shipyards.
- B Squadrons have been adjusted so that the more modern ships are present.
- A CL Squadron of three fast light cruisers of the Marsala type has been added.
- War losses have been deleted.
KuK Marine
- The 9-newest pre-dreadnoughts have been grouped into two B Squadrons. Obsolete ships have been deleted.
- A new AC Squadron contains the best Austrian large cruisers.
- A new CL Squadron contains four fast cruisers of the Saida type.
- War losses have been deleted
United States Navy
- Atlantic Fleet dreadnoughts and pre-dreadnoughts have been rearranged into homogenous BB and B Squadrons respectively.
- AC Squadrons have been added as the USN loved their large cruisers, fictional and incorrectly named ships have been deleted or changed.
- A fast CL Squadron containing three cruisers of the Salem type has been added.
Imperial Russian Navy
- The Baltic Fleet now has its historical ships.
- The Black Sea Fleet now has its historical ships.
- AC Unit Bayan and DD Unit Novik have been added to the Baltic Fleet.
- SS Units Narval and Akula have been added at Rewal and Sevastopol respectively.
- War losses have been deleted.
Minor Navies
- The Greek Navy is complete.
- The Dutch Navy is complete.

1915 Scenario Naval Mod V2. Complete with fixes and all inclusive.
Fixed spelling error (mine) that prevented British BB unit Colossus from appearing in the Grand Fleet.
Fixed minor error in the Detachments.csv that prevented French Atlantic Fleet from appearing, now including AC Jeanne d'Arc.
Added CV HMS Argus to shipyards. Built on the incomplete hull of the Italian liner Conte Rosso, Argus is cheap to start but expensive to complete. Given the limited utility of CV's she will probably never be built in the game but when Calvinus increased the number of units available, my resistance to adding her collapsed.
