Power of Politics 1914 : A WWI scenario
-
One quick holiday teaser for all the Canadians out there...
The turkey unit unfortunately provides all units with a -1 Att. and Def. penalty. But rest assured... all your troops die in a blissful Tryptophan educed coma.
Happy Thanksgiving to all the Canuck warmongers!

@Captain-Crunch I think he was calling me out personally on my comment in @Name thread about his map development.
More or less a jab at my kidney trying to get me motivated. -
@Hepps Ponders emailing more Scotch? Never mind that slowed the donation drive banner me thinks … Hi H

@prastle What it lacked in motivation it more than made up for in personal job satisfaction.

I'm afraid if I don't leave this somewhere it will be lost to time forever.
Here is the Pop_1914 folder which I have. It includes a tweak I must have made at some point, to the under image. Probably while trying to get blends to work under the newer scheme, or who knows, it was like years ago now.
This map/game is not in a fully completed state, meaning I'm not sure if meets the specs for the pre-release 2.7 is stuff. It won't autounzip, but if I extract the folder and place that downloaded maps it will launch up. I think perhaps just needs a yaml in the right spot, or to match the new structure for that stuff in the latest tripleA way.
It's missing some elements, unit graphics I believe, as I only had Germany for that from Hepps, and I think the others may need to be worked up. but this is everything I have for it so I didn't want it to be lost. Going like 5 years on my old dropbox links probably will be defunct eventually. Anyhow here it is from the archive on my drive.

That includes everything I was given by Hepps and Redrum at whatever point that was back in like 2020. The way Hepps did his design, the Misc folder was used to include all the decorative elements in tiles (basically like same way as using the map tools tile_breaker in map tools/tile_reconstructor in other optional tools. I believe what I did was to isolate out the convoy lanes, and then put it back in a reduced opacity, and changed the base ocean color to a lighter color for blends. This was just me trying to customize what was already there, hence the backups in case anyone needed to restore. Here is an image with blends on and then another blends off, so you can see what all is there.

Unit purchase (screen)
There screen for G1. Right now G is the only faction with graphics, so I think that would need to be the basis, at least for Central Powers. Perhaps the Entante could just be made in the similar style. Graphics for that one all 48px, but might do an upscale if I can find the time. Otherwise I think Hepps stuff all looks pretty badass though, I mean stylistically it's all very visually cohesive with his other tripleA boards, and has the unifying vibes. Not sure what if anything comes of it, I just didn't want to lose all that work that they put in. Map is in a WIP state still. I'm not sure of the ultimate design vision for the politics and such, but wanted to make sure it was saved somewhere at least.

@black_elk not sure how i missed this but thanks for posting it happy to pitch in on graphical stuff to try to get this map finished
will poke around this a bit and seee if i understand what needs to be done

@ubernaut Most of the images are missing. It would probably be better to use images from another WW1 mod and use flags to distinguish between players.
