DP and CP Configuration

[zEnxrgy63™]

Is it not possible in this game to configure DP and CP? Weird that im finding nothing in the discussion and internet either, seems like no one really cares that you can spawn one Sturmmörser, some kind of PAK, an MG and that´t it. Boring

Please help me if possible and if there´s no solution, I damn hope somebody is brining out a mod to change DP and CP settings in skirmish and such.

Well, no one even cares about this game.
You can buy officers to lower CP, which means you can buy more units; You can even buy multiple officers then have a lot of units at the same time. The reason for such limit is for balance. devs don't want any side to have overwhelming existing units at the early stage of a battle, otherwise there's no need for low tier units. That's why there are time limits for better units. If you simply want a sea of tanks, maybe you can try test mode.
There is a way to change the rules for skirmish but you have to edit game files with notepad. you have to change the file type to zip and unzip them to access and do some editing and zip them back and change the file type. Not recommended

Game settings > Custom. MP and CP can be changed there.

Don´t seem to find these.

Bumping to say that DP really needs to be customizeable. To me right now games can devolve quick into a Doctrine unit spam fest.

I mean, if you wish to do so in private games, why not?

In multiplayer the host can change the CP and MP settings of the game.

Host the game.
On the left is the player list.

I the centre of the screen you see these standard options :

ORDER OF BATTLE
Army Selection Mode
Player Army
Game Settings : STANDARD
War Stage
Mission Options
Direct Control
Victory Points to Win
Preparation Time
Fog of War
Friendly Fire
Show armour penetration
Show damage information
Enable Spectators

Change Game Settings from Standard to Custom.

You now get additional boxes appear and some are for
Resource Settings 80 CP
Total Manpower 2150

You can then change those settings.
CP is a drop down box with values ranging from 80 to 250.
MP you can edit the box and select any number between 1000 and 50,000.

Remember that bigger armies means the host computer (yes it is under your desk not in some server cloud) needs to perform more calculations so you might find that with 6 players and 250 CP each the game gets pretty laggy and unplayable.

You can even buy multiple officers then have a lot of units at the same time

In multiplayer you can only ever call in a maximum of two officers.
If one or both gets killed they can't be replaced.

Each officer reduces the CP of your army by 25 CP (The max CP shown on screen doesn't go up the CP used goes down).

Keep them alive they are important.
