But from what I am getting it won't have those huge "gaps" or holes in lines you see in those games. Same with much of African borders.Ĭlick to expand.I am more saying the layout and basic framework will look Hearts of Iron like even if not function exactly like it. Spain and France mountainous border is example of "natural border" or French ambitious to expand to Rhineland River as "natural border" while American west like Kansas, New Mexico, or other clear cut line borders are not at all. State or nation borders could sometimes match warfare ones. This could possibly represent partisan warfare well along with tribal and colonial conflicts. Tribes and nomads can hide in more harsh lands and you have to send smaller specialized units to go put them down. When France or Europeans want to colonized inland Africa, they just need order to troops and paramilitary law enforcement to secure and stabilized land under their rule. So hopefully no more of having to siege random deserts in Libya or Algeria. Those rails can also be destroyed to slow down invaders but need to be repaired after depending on who takes it. No one can just send troops through Alps until you build railroads through it somehow at least in large numbers. Troops and possible law enforcement as well depend on geography and infrastructure on how, where, and routes they take to travel. For example, the political map and war map are separate. And we have so little information that we are all free to dreamĬlick to expand.I am thinking they maybe created separate map mode.
It's a lovely thought but no idea if that is what they have gone for. They can completely change the probabilities of flanking / breakthroughs / defence depending on what inventions each side have without having the cookie cutter statistics of HOI4 where you design the 'perfect meta' division on day 1 and never change it for the whole war. 10000 men could guard 100000 square km of frontier, or just 10 km of ww1 trench line.Ģ) no longer do battles have to last multiple ticks - the old days of combats going on for days/weeks/years just so the player has a chance to get involved are gone.ģ) the system can adapt to new styles of warfare MUCH easier than on the map units.
This system has 2, maybe 3, main advantages.ġ) no longer are armies limited by the size of a unit that you control on the map. Do you:Ī) congratulate him and tell him to push furtherĬ) tell him that the enemy have obviously abandoned that front and that you're withdrawing 10,000 troops from his army General McDuff sent out heavy reinforced advance patrols and managed to seize 3 provinces. My guess (and it's entirely a guess) is combat is now an event tree (or multiple concurrent event trees).Į.g. No, that would just be the old style of combat with no control.
