will this mod be compatible with road to 56?

Outstanding work! This should be in the base game. Can't wait for the "Road to 56" compatibility!:steamthumbsup:

Corap had a decent understanding of war when you compare him to someone like General Condé who was stuck in the past with his mathematical studies on artillery barrages, or even Blanchard, which Corap criticized for being too doctrinal and too tactically rigid. The 1940 campaign would prove him right in the end, though Corap is still viewed today as a poor general. I believe he had a pretty good potential overall, even if his time as commander of the IXth army is still not very known. I recommend reading his biography, written by Max Schiavon, which helped me a lot !

Anyway i might have said too much for such a small detail but i wanted to prove my point lol ^^

to answer FranC4 :

I'll be honest, i have a little soft spot for Corap. The guy was far more competent than Huntziger or Billotte (he had terrible relations with both of them), and the Army he was commanding was way too small and badly equipped to hold anything other than a couple skirmishes. During the entierety of his command of the IXth army, he kept asking for more troops and better equipment and his demands were always refused. The fact that his army was able to disengage to the other side of the Meuse is a miracle by itself. The blame for the breakthrough at Sedan was put on him by Huntziger and the politicians who needed a scapegoat for their mistakes. Huntziger is the biggest red flag in this story, as he actually had recon planes warning him of movement in the Ardennes, which he dismissed entierly.

First, this mod is amazing. The artwork is really well done.
Second, I noticed that the dev for the mod definitely put a lot of heart into commander traits(like George Alphonse is the only marshal without a old guard trait).
However, I have a question for the dev: Are you SURE Andre Corap does not need an Old Guard trait as well?

Thank you!

Can you update it please ? because with RT56 it adds vanilla nationnal spirit in the mod.
Beatlejuice Nov 3, 2023 @ 7:05pm

a really nice mod ! Could i ask you something ? Could you add directly in the game the 6 generals that the army reform unlock ? Same for de Gaulle and de Lattre de Tassigny ? it would be awesome, thx
tereteyyfd Apr 10, 2023 @ 7:29am 
Can you give up giving another six generals after completing the focus,I sometimes play other new france focus mods,I have no diea to get these six generals ,but I want to get them.I hope you will change it.Thank for your help.:steamthumbsup:
Zarathustra1889 Apr 7, 2023 @ 4:45pm 
I tried this mod but all my generals surrendered
jddoty25 Apr 6, 2023 @ 1:13pm 
thoroughly based mod
Sir David. Apr 6, 2023 @ 8:15am 
RT56 compatibility :demoticon: yes or no
Gandhi Apr 6, 2023 @ 4:51am 
Next playthrough will be France with your mod - looks very nice
Alrendaxe  [author] Apr 6, 2023 @ 3:38am 
that would be Gamelin
Gandhi Apr 6, 2023 @ 3:36am 
Who was the guy without a telephone in his HQ ?
утыз өченче Apr 5, 2023 @ 5:46pm 
this will not make them surrender any faster than usual
Leontes Apr 5, 2023 @ 3:26pm 
We appreciate you, good sir

Hey! I'm working on a France overhaul mod, and was wondering if you'd be flexible on me integrating this mod into mine. If you need any other details, just add me on steam and ill be sure to lyk!
Luftwaffle17 Apr 5, 2023 @ 10:29am 
Good luck mate
Alrendaxe  [author] Apr 5, 2023 @ 9:43am 
i'm working on it ! i'll keep you updated !
Luftwaffle17 Apr 5, 2023 @ 5:52am 
Yeah, exactly, add a decision to add them and another one to add the ones you get for army reforms, just like the german generals mod did.
Leo Stavkinov Apr 5, 2023 @ 12:03am 
just create a decision to add them on the model of the mod
'decision to add general'
winterxaid Apr 4, 2023 @ 3:58pm 
can you make this France completed compatible
Alrendaxe  [author] Apr 3, 2023 @ 6:58am 
i'll see what i can do for the RT56 compatibility
LePatron Apr 3, 2023 @ 6:19am 
any plans to make a RT56 compatible version?
«DeepCoverAka187» Apr 3, 2023 @ 2:20am 
I agree, mostly about Charles Delestraint
Fanatyk_Karotki Apr 3, 2023 @ 12:49am 
Ahh... A tear in my eye because I've been waiting years for mods similar to AddfewGenerals. I suggest you add British generals like this or continue with France where I think a few officers are missing:
- Victor-Henri Schweisguth
- Paul Azan
- Jean Bouffet
- Alfred Montagne
- Maurice Viant
- Charles Delestraint
- Benoit-Léon Fornel de La Laurencie
- Louis Keller
- Paul-André Doyen
- Jules Hartung

Alternatively, make an Overhaul of the Ministers of France.

based
Leo Stavkinov Apr 2, 2023 @ 7:21am 
Good work but not compatible R56...
You can fix with a decision to add them
Alrendaxe  [author] Apr 1, 2023 @ 3:53pm

Alrendaxe  [author] Apr 1, 2023 @ 3:47pm 
I'll see what i can do for that, but the Ironman compatible version will be up soon !
Leontes Apr 1, 2023 @ 3:31pm 
great mod! any plans to make a RT56 compatible version?
«DeepCoverAka187» Apr 1, 2023 @ 8:36am 
yes it could be fun :P it look way better than the base game
Alrendaxe  [author] Apr 1, 2023 @ 6:00am 
sadly, no but i can make an ironman compatible version if you want (but it will only include the base generals)
«DeepCoverAka187» Apr 1, 2023 @ 4:39am 
it's not ironman compatible right ?
Zombyed Mar 31, 2023 @ 12:59pm
