Walkers Buff w/Support Co.
I love the Walkers mod created by Kova, but they tend to get left in the dust pretty early without upgrades or MIOs. This is an attempt to keep the Walkers useful for a bit longer I’ve made in my free time.
Changes to the base mod are:
-Increased Organization / Suppression / Breakthrough
-Increased Urban attack / movement
-Increased Speed (Capable of matching Motorized w/designer)
-Built-in Soft, Hard, & AA attack ranging from 0.5-2 per dmg type
-Added ability to equip Medium weapons / secondary turrets
-Can equip x2 of: secondary turrets, wet ammo storage & armor skirts
-Added Scout Walker Support Companies (can stack w/light tank recon or airborne light tanks)
-Slightly reduced IC cost
-Recolored Generic Walker
The idea is to have Walkers fill the role of:
A) An armored option that provides a cheap & fast tank unit early game, with some built in AA/Hard/Piercing attack for a minor power without the budget to have dedicated Anti Air/Tank support
B) A more interesting unit than Armored cars for defensive / garrison / mech mid game
Current Workin-On-Em’s:
-need to rebalance to find the sweet spot between useful in 1943 and not OP in 1938.
-release the support companies as a separate mod
-add more camo colors / designs for Majors
-add walkers to generic tank MIO or create a dedicated MIO
This is my first mod, so leave a comment if you have a suggestion for balance etc.
