#Black ice game mods upgrade
Instead of 2 upgrade techs for inf&mot&mech techs, there is now 1 upgrade-only tech, and 2 techs both unlocking new equipment(1st equipment is used by AT guns, 2nd is rocket artillery) and upgrading inf&mot&mech. "Explosives team", similar to snipers, is a single-level upgrade tech, increasing anti-tank capabilities, as well as greatly increasing attack in urban & fort areas.
Small bonus, smaller than in HMG or mortar techs, but it might give you the edge or at least lower your casualties when winning.
"Sniper Team" is a single-level upgrade tech giving 3% defense to all inf&mot&mech.And because cost of producing it doesn't increase, you might as well change to them. On top of that, 2nd and further levels of uniform have 2 defense instead of 1, and recovery rate increases on each of them by 0.10. Important thing here is, even only researching next level gives bonus to recovery rate. "Uniform" is completely new type of equipment, used by all infantry, motorized & mechanized battalions(support units don't seem to use it, with exception of Div.HMG is giving higher defense, while mortars give the same bonus in defense & breakthrough. Unlike in vanilla where each level gave the same bonus, in BICE every next level is more important than previous. "Support Equipment" upgrade path has been split up into 2 parts: "HMG" and "Mortar".I recommend keeping garrison divisions in separate army/armies from your offensive divisions.Įquipment: Infantry Equipment, Light Infantry Equipment, Uniforms/Boots/HelmetsĮquipment: Infantry Equipment, Mountain Equipment, Uniforms/Boots/HelmetsĮquipment: Infantry Equipment, Naval Equipment, Uniforms/Boots/HelmetsĮquipment: Infantry Equipment, Paratroop Equipment, Uniforms/Boots/Helmets Defense is their only use - militia is more effective at being police. Almost as long training as ordinary infantry. They lower breakthrough - if you add them to normal division those will be less effective in attack. Slightly cheaper to produce than normal infantry, also take only half as much manpower. Keep in mind they cost more manpower.Įquipment: Infantry Equipment, Garrison Maintenance, Uniforms/Boots/Helmets May be used: to form some defensive line very fast as they can be deployed after 8 days in training, as military police - it has the same suppresion as normal infantry while being much cheaper, or as a cheaper version of infantry. Extra defense in forest, mountain, urban, jungle and marsh terrain. Very low training time, low stats and organization battalion. If you need more information, play vanilla HOI IV before jumping into BICE. A new piece of DLC, titled "No Step Back," is expected to be released later this summer.Equipment: Infantry Equipment, Uniforms/Boots/Helmets Motorization levels can also be improved to make supply delivery more efficient. A handy new map mode will be released that promises to make it easier for players to see where the supplies from their hubs are going. More specifically, the effort is now being made to allow supply to be less cumbersome. Lately, the devs have been focusing on the subject of supply. Even though they are now in the midst of their summer break, there's always still plenty to discuss when it comes to upcoming features. Updated Jby Mark Hospodar: Fans eager to stay current with all the latest buzz concerning Hearts of Iron IV should always check the dev diaries. The common denominator among them is that all deserve some serious attention from fans. Some make the experience more realistic while others are purely fantastical in their settings.
