I did make at template, I posted it in this topic here:
This is we’re u implement the platoon historical accuracy Ike if they were sent to reinforce or guard or make a new division with other countries like invasion of Russia were there were three fronts and multiple countries mixed together.
Also have to take note of what platoons were in the campaign and base that of said engagements the platoon/division took part in
I Have no suggestion
wow Really wish u were da enlisted dev lol
And just think man if they would’ve made this game a gorey bloody mess to show what war is like then maybe ww3 wouldn’t have so many partakers in the recruiting department for all countries that play this game.,for all we are is pawns looking to be kinged
Awesome post and proposal! I really do hope the Devs will look into this and add as much as they can. Balancing will be an issue no doubt but at least the unique equipment for it’s Faction is mostly there. I wouldn’t mind having some shared equipment if it’s necessary.
For France , I hope they will also include the Colonial Troops or French Foreign Legion if and when they do add them.
I like the idea of riding my Renault 17, armed with Chauchat LMG and Ribeyrolles 1918, defening Verdun. BF1 vibes.
I also hope they let u change paint schemes in game bc no historical game gonna have pz 2 running snow camo in the desert
Please mate they’re about to allow King Tigers in Moscow and other types of blasphemy.
Cool work though I would rather have Spain as premium unitd.
Lovely stuff, many thanks!
Really impressed by the effort but I’m not sure how well having this many trees would work in the game. Considering each tech tree is really short and the fact that many weapons differ mostly by name, it could potentially make for stale gameplay.
In addition to this, would the nations be thrown into completely random scenarios or would the playerbase be split into very specific conflicts? While some players would accept sacrificing historical authenticity, Enlisted attracts a lot of history nerds that might not necessarily want to play hardcore MilSims. Before you refer to War Thunder, remember that Enlisted is in a more competitive genre.
I was a little limited in space on some of trees, however I will admit some of them probably couldn’t be expanded too much beyond what I made. Though I will note that most of the trees I made are similar in size to Japan currently.
To address your concern, I think it would be very possible to include some of the smaller nations as sub-trees in other factions. For example you could include smaller Romania tech lines in a larger German tech tree (I may try to create a visual in the future). It may also be possible to combine some of them together, but that may cause historical accuracy problems. Some nations definitely should not receive this treatment though, such as Poland.
I would be disappointed if no sub-faction system is attempted or some of these factions aren’t added in any form outside of premiums.
In my current proposal for the addition of these nations, they would be split into their historical settings. Limiting their access to maps, but I don’t think it would be a problem for matchmaking as the main factions would almost certainly be more popular than these smaller factions. So it is unlikely that there will be long queue times for Norway players as there would be more than enough UK and Germany players to fill out the rest of the lobby.
Fair, I must admit that I am biased towards having more weapons at the cost of a little less historical accuracy. Some changes may need to be made to cater to historical accuracy. Changes such as moving some of the more rare/experimental weapons out of main progression. This might make it difficult to justify adding some of the factions I listed as some of their main progression tree would be reduced. In this case a special-subtree system like the one I suggested above for Romania could be considered.
Perhaps to solve some complications, research trees could be grouped into groups such as “Western Allies”, “Eastern Axis”, etc. This way players could skip the near-identical bolt actions and try out all the unique weapons that come later.
I’ll simply bribe alot of people just to play as this guy he looks so silly yet so authentic :
Great conceptual work !
I want a map of the Spanish Civil War and the factions.
For alternate campaigns, you could also add :
-Sweden
In 1940 the Brits had the idea codenamed Plan R4 to invade both Norway & Sweden in order to deny Germany from further receiving Swedish iron ore but never realized due to Norway being invaded.
Operation Rädda Danmark was a Swedish non executed plan to liberate Denmark in the last days of the German Reich before falling into Soviet hands.
-Switzerland
Germany devised a plan named Operation Tannenbaum to invade the Swiss but was never executed.
-Turkey
Germany & Bulgaria planned in 1942 to invade Turkey since it was speculated that it would join the Allies which it did in 1945. This plan was never realized due to the Allied landings in Sicily and rapid advances of the Red Army in Caucasus
-Iran
was invaded by the Ussr and Uk in 1941 to allow the Soviets access to Lend-Lease goods.
-Siam
allied itself with Japan after being invaded. They participated in the battle of Burma and battled against Vichy french troops in Indochina
I appreciate the ideas, but I think there is plenty of historical content for the devs to focus on instead of alt-history invasions of sweden and switzerland. This is why I didn’t make a tree for Bulgaria despite them being an axis power, they did not send any troops to fight on any fronts until they swapped sides to the Soviet Union. I doubt Turkey did anything substantial enough to have had any meaningful contribution to the war. Iran and Siam though could be further explored, I am unsure if they have enough unique weaponry to warrant a tech tree though.
Poland czech denmark norway benelux = complreely irrelevant, stomped by germans within week or just days ( danish surrender 4 hours)
Their weapons can be in german tech tree like vz 24
Australia and commonwealth: making things needlesly overcomplicated, just make them part of brits
Yugoslavia and greece: stomped by germans within a month
Some captured unique wepons can be distributed to italy and germany but thats about it.
Bulgaria: only declared war on western allies and brifly invaded norther greece and macedonia, again irrelevant
Maybe 1 prem squad with unique weapon
Ethiopia; using 19th century muskets and invaded by italy before the war. Again irrelevant
Spain: only sent volunteer unit named division azul, 1 prem sauad is enough no need tech tree
Brazil: only sent expeditionary force to italian front. Can be 1 premium sauad no need for tech tree
Rest are ok
???
France held just about a week more than Poland, while Poland was attacked not just by Germans but also by the Soviets. Should the French campaign also not be included then?
Good work! I love it! As a hungarian Im especially supporting to have Hungary as a faction, but also I would understand if devs decide with Finland. I only want to add: As I know the most common lmg used by Finland was the DP-27 since they looted so much they started to produce magazines for it. Hungary was participated in the battle of Stalingrad at Don river but where the most of it’s equipment could be seen is the siege of Budapest, I wish I could see that one!!!
