      Hej there, it works fine but: It seems to reset / wipe out other effects in same territory: so if a territory has both mountain and winter effect is reset it results in no effect , and after reset only winter effect... not the combination... so it seems hmmm.......

        WINTER EFFECT : SO: IT WORKS: but to avoid the -reset- clearing the other territory effect the Clear winter trigger need to recall the other Effects: like:
        <option name="territoryProperty" value="territoryEffect" count="-reset-Mountain:Forest:Marshes:etc etc"/>

        then it works fine! really great thank you so much for helping out !!!!! There is a seasonal winter as winter should be !!!!! Allthough the Axis might not appreciate it ๐Ÿ˜‰ anyway: a real key factor in ww2 warfare... forgive me the amount of cumunication on the forum.. but it lead to something

          I am very glad to hear that you figured out '-reset-' and understand that after using it the other territoryEffect's would need to be set again.

          Cheers...

            @wc_sumpton LAST WINTER EFFECT small correction:
            the reset of territories needs to be done for each specific Effect and its territory:
            so if a terr. had Forest Effect and another had Mountain , after -reset- for Winter effect, they need to be reset seperately in their given territories....
            amen..... . enough about snow .... time to move on.... ๐Ÿ˜‰

                @ebbe Sweet ! Throw it up on git under experimental as soon as it's playable. I'd like to check it out. Sure others do as well.

                    @MirkoBruner I work on now and share them around 15th dec. Then it is basic still and needs more adjustment, good testing and ideas....

                      Okej: anyone more suggestions for special units?

                      jetFighter.png heavyHouwitzer.png jetFighter.png armouredTrain.png katyushaArtillery.png armourT34.png

                      I like to flavour the game with each player having some exclusive special units:

                      right now I have: ( AA meaning: a pre strike before actual battle round )

                      GERMANS:
                      -Heavy Houwitzer ( Karl Gerร„t/Morser) : strong AA versus Entrenchment & fortifications
                      -Jet Fighter: ME-262 Schwalbe: advanced fighter : good AA versus Bombers
                      -Type XXI Submarine: advanced Submarine.... harder to beat by destroyers
                      ( Flaktower: I am considering a Flaktower: fortified 3 hits AA gun: allthough only 3 were build , they seem fun for me to have )
                      Working on V1-V2 rockets....

                      ITALIANS:
                      -Forgive me , but I cannot come up with something
                      except the notorious human-manned torpedoes and diving teams ...

                      JAPANESE:
                      -Heavy battleship: Yamamoto: extra powerful.....
                      -Kamikaze planes.... AA attack on ships.... cannot be bought: limited & given
                      when Japan is under pressure
                      -Infantry +1 defense in jungle and mountains to resemble their persistence....

                      RUSSIANS:
                      -Armoured train: like artillery but then with huge 5 movement, may transport 1 infantry too
                      -Katyusha rocket launchers: strong AA barrage against infantry
                      -T34: cheaper massproduced / no movement penalty & better battle performance in Winter setting....

                      AMERICANS:
                      -Heavy Bomber: Flying fortess/B-17 : extra powerful bomber
                      -TLS/Landing ships: transporter witch 1 extra loading capacity & a 2 bombard ability at amphibious landing.
                      -P-38 Lightning: Fighter with +1 range....

                      • Jetfighter: late arriving (after Germans and British ) but still: Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star

                      UK:
                      -Advanced destroyer: stronger AA-antisub depthbombs roll
                      -Jet Fighter: Gloster Meteor

                      ANZAC: I was thinking of some sturdy Jungle/desert unit
                      CANADA: ?

                      -All Players have the ability to develop Heavy Armour
                      -I am working on partisans to incidentelly pop up in empty behind-the -front areas....

                      Any more ideas of essential special units?

                      I like to keep the total number of units limited to keep placement in order...
                      but some players could have an extra option...

                        Italians can have L3/35 tankette.

                            Germans: Super-Heavy represented by King Tiger (Tiger II), would be even more powerful than Heavy Armor

                            ANZAC, UK, Canada: Commando, an elite Infantry unit which gets terrain bonuses and a bonus on original territory

                            USA: Lend-Leased units, which are built by the USA but placed by the Allied power the lend-lease is being sent to. Is otherwise the same stats as a normal unit, but has the appearance of an American unit (A UK Lend Lease Medium Armour would look like a Sherman but would be the UK colour)

                            Italy, Japan, some neutral nations: Tankette, a worse version of Light Armor which is slightly cheaper

                              If you are looking for some ideas for special units... I had come up with a bunch for my Global Dominance project...

                              As an example...

                              105b4724-37fb-4652-b3a9-8c93e9d0f809-image.png

                              The reason I posted this example is simply because you said you were having trouble with an idea for an Italian special unit...

                              The Alpini were considered some of the most elite units of the Italian army.

                                @Hepps: Mountain bonus for Italians/ Alpini.. good idea... hej your units especially the sniper, sas & alpini look really really good ... I know by now it can be difficult to get such clear and smooth result in this small 48x48 pixels ! you make them yourself? you have my interest on Global Dominance... Total War was allready impressive... ( ps: Guerilla instead of Geurilla I suppose; coming from the Spanish: Guerra = war / Guerilla : little war ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

                                  @ebbe Just wondering wouldn't it make more sense preventing nations to use captured factories if you think realism must be present at significant level? And it would be the easiest way representing logistic.

                                    @Schulz : that how I solved it now: once conquered a factory (or barracks) gets disabled... and can be reactivated by the original owner, when reconquered
                                    A disabled factory gives some PU's to represent warbooty.. / useful material. Something like that. ( And no building of factories and Barracks outside of original territories and with minimum of 2 PU value and for big factory min of 3)

                                    I solved it differently for Refineries ( as they are the oil source in Oil-territories: as AI neglects their importance I had to let them swap when conquered... but when damaged at half fuel prodiuction . Otherwise AI players went out of fuel even when controlling enough oil-territories.)

                                      Maybe the Free French could have "partisans" which would spawn in German-controlled France on occasion, meaning it would be necessary for the Germans to keep a lot of units there to hold France (because if they left it empty partisans would take back control). Also you should make it so that as soon as Paris is retaken all Vichy French territories turn Free French

                                          Will there be a version without oil, to overcome AI limitations?
                                          Lots of conquered territories (by Germany) were used for conscription of cheap cannon fodder. Even for Waffen SS. Maybe this option could be present in some areas.
