This mod only adds new artillery brigades. The same goes for other units using trucks or APC’s (I’ve seen mechanized infantry divisions go 1.3 kmp/h because they didn’t have any APC’s for the mecanized brigades). So if you don’t have enough trucks to equip your artillery, they’ll slow down. Keep in mind that the maximum speed is tied directly to the equipment ratio of trucks. The mechanized versions use mechanized equipment instead of trucks. There’s already a ‘mobile’ version -the truck mounted rocket artillery- in the base game.) (Rocket artillery only gets a truck-towed ‘infantry’ version. Rocket-artillery brigade = 36 launchers – 40 trucks. For the mechanized version a halftrack is used instead of a truck. The brigades need one truck for every gun, and four extra trucks for the command unit, radio equipment, support soldiers and spare equipment. The brigades are separate from the vanilla brigades, so you can still use those if your economy can’t cope with truck production. The brigades now need trucks as equipment though. This means that they have the same maximum speed as motorized infantry (12 kmp/h). I changed that by giving all four artillery brigades trucks. So although support companies will not affect the maximum speed of your division, if you add frontline artillery brigades, that’s because all frontline artillery brigades in HoI4 are horse-drawn. That’s because the standard artillery units are horsedrawn.

So whilst it will still work with pretty much any other mod, any mod that changes the artillery tech tree will make it so these units won’t benefit from the artillery improvement techs.Įver notice that artillery brigades have a maximum speed of 4 kmp/h?

Please remember that this mod OVERRIDES the artillery technology tree in order to apply the tech bonusses to the motorized/mechanized versions of the artillery units. The newest patch/dlc didn’t change any of the files that affected the mod, so I just updated the version number.

I’ll go through the tech file later to see if anything changed there, but I doubt it. I didn’t change the units, so they are slightly cheaper than the units now included in the base game.Īll the things seemed to still be working fine, so I didn’t actually change anything. It’s now completely unneeded, but I updated the mod anyway.
