Description:

Enhanced User Interface is required to display the technology tree correctly!


Rebalances Tanks to make their usage more historically accurate and encourage different designs and strategies.


Research

Tank Module Unlocks: Adjusted to historical conditions
(Research is needed to unlock all desired modules)

Module Slot Unlocks: Limited by chassis >>> Interwar 1, Basic 2, Improved 3, Advanced 4
(Advanced chassis allow the usage of more module slots, so advanced research becomes increasingly important)

Tank variants

Artillery is no longer an eligible role for all light aswell as 1 and 2 man medium turrets.
Tank destroyer is no longer an eligible role for all turnable turret types, so it requires the usage of a casemate or a newly introduced open-topped turret.
(Increases the importance of casemates to better resemble their historic usage while discouraging the generic design of TDs using 3 man turrets.)

SPAA (Anti-Air Tank) Combat width 2 >>> 1
(SPAA are now worth a consideration vs. motorized AA)

Tank Destroyer Breakthrough: -42/25 % >>> -60 %
(TDs are there for damage, Tanks for breakthrough)

Modules

New turrets for light and medium tanks (1941 tech): "Three Man Open-Topped Turret": Breakthrough >>> 14/24, Hardness >>> -10 %


(Introduces a new type of turret to increase realistic technological advancements throughout the war while containing balance with the previous changes to vanilla turrets.)

Secondary Module "Small Cannon": Soft Attack 5 >>> 4, Hard Attack 3 >>> 2, Production Cost (IC) 3 >>> 5, Reliability -10 % >>> -15 %
(Nerf to "Small Cannons" so they are no longer undisputed best-in-slot)

Fuel Usage

Light/Amphibious 2 >>> 1, Medium 2 >>> 2, Heavy 2 >>> 4, Super-Heavy 2 >>> 6
(Makes LT/AT more usable while nerfing HT)

Piercing

Piercing: Maximum vs. average 0.4 >>> 0.1
(Makes piercing harder to come by so that there is an arms race for armor vs. piercing)


NOT achievement compatible!
