Patch - Making History: The Calm and the Storm : Making History: The Calm and the Storm
- PC
Ein weiterer Patch für 'Making History'.
New Features include:
* You can now play as any nation in single-player mode.
* Air squadrons now have two movement options:
o You can Rebase a squadron to a new location within its flying range in one turn.
o You can Move a squadron to a location outside its flying range, but the move will take multiple turns, and crossing oceans may require transports. The number of turns required will depend on the unit’s range.
* Deficits matter:
o Industrial production output will be penalized for nations that run a financial deficit. This change emphasizes the economic dimensions of production and trade. To reduce a deficit, you may wish to switch cities’ production to goods which you can then trade for income, and stockpiles of food or resources are also useful for trading. It is also more costly to keep a large standing army, as military maintenance costs (in Arms) is increased.
* Rally points: You can specify rally points for cities that are producing land forces, and land forces produced there will immediately move to the rally point region. When you select a city, the map will display an arrow to that city’s rally point.
* Aid deals now affect diplomatic relations: Diplomatic relations between nations are improved when they sign aid deals.
* City upgrade rules have been modified:
o A city can be upgraded only when the city is at the top of the previous range.
o Cities whose output has been reduced by bombing to a lower tech level are now downgraded to that level.
System Modifications:
* Combat now includes an air combat phase.
* The algorithm for computing financial points has been modified.
* Rules have been modified for picking a new capital when the current capital falls. The new rules favor larger cities and cities in home regions.
* Food production bonuses and penalties have been restructured.
* Region upgrade payments are now spread across the time the upgrade is in progress.
AI Improvements:
Many AI tweaks and improvements have been made, including:
* Rebasing of air forces by AI nations is more restrained.
