STATE OF THE MOD:
It's dead, sorry.
current changes:
gameplay changes:
- camera max zoom out increased (from 40 to 60)
- airborne doctrine reworked (WIP)
new units:
- submachine gun squad (barracks; 4 man m1a1 thompson crew, can be upgraded with a flamethrower)
- carbine squad (weapons support center; riflemen with carbines, can be upgraded to have grenade launchers)
- planner squad (barracks; can built basic defences)
- anti tank squad (barracks; basic anti tank squad, can be upgraded to have 4 members)
- heavy Paratroopers (through doctrine; better outfitted more health and 100% more badass)
- spotter (weapons support center; can call in off map mortar strikes)
- reservists (barracks; weak, very weak soldiers equiped with rifles and pistols, requires infantry doctrine) (thanks to Haze221 for thinking of this unit)
changed units and buildings:
- Engineer (cant build defences and is 4 man squad, cant get flamethrowers anymore)
- all crew weapons (now all exitable)
- all units (will surrender under heavy fire) (thanks to Wilko for making the surrender mod)
- barracks (can be built anywhere in captured territory)
Planned features:
- custom icons for both the planner squad and the carbine man squad.
- reservists balancing.
- custom textures (maybe).
- any type of healing unit (healing aura like triage center but then smaller and less efective).
- extended doctrines (three rows, or just more options).
- Guard infantry (better stats when not moving, needs more thought)
- an upgrade for the guard unit to cary heavy machine guns instead of rifles.
- "Red devil" marine squad

Hello eveybody!
Once every two weeks i will upload a video that shows of a unit and all the abilitys that unit might have!
This weeks unit is:
The "Submachine gun squad"
They are your basic anti infantry squad, their tommy guns will rip up infantry in seconds and when upgraded to cary flamethrowers their anti infantry power is unimaginable!
They are built from the barracks for 220 manpower and take up 4 population and take 28 seconds to built, one soldier has 80 hitpoints. They can not built defences or gain acces to grenades, sticky bombs and the BAR assault rifle.
planned changes:
texturesi will try to make them but i cant promise anything.
the video shows the squad fighting and upgrading to a flamethrower unit:
leave comments and for future updates you should 'track' this mod ^_^

I suggest a unit type the sappers who can repair only the vehicles and that only anti-tank weapons (type 3/4 per team) absolutely useless against infantry, and wanted to know if he's going to add any map?
no sorry, i already made a anti tank squad and sappers... eh, maybe in an other faction? and im not a mapper. but if anyone wants to add a map you can PM me.
i have a new unit for you if your interested to make it. its a french resistance as a call in for the americans. they would look like whermacet pioneers. but they would have shotguns and molitolv cocktails.
please tell me what u think.
The mod is dead, sorry. I will anounce it.
that sucks. i really liked this mod.
for panzer elite than make your engineers really elite maybe more expensive than normal engineer?
im not working on panzer elite now :). im working on america, and after that its axis then commen wealth and lastly panzer elite.
but i will keep this in mind. if you want to become beta tester you should suggest troops for america or axis. as they are the first two on my list. but thanks for sharing your ideas :D
for Americans unit called Marines maybe with some additions to name some cool type "red devils" or a variant a little basic type landing troops, to the "red devils" marine 6 for teams and as upgrades bazooka (I thought 2 to balance with panzerschek that is more effective than that of the allies) light machine guns, submachine guns type thompson and maybe put like ability to pull demolition charges as units are almost behind the lines, you could put together as elite infantry or as a reward in the defense doctrine / infantry, while the basic variant the landing troops are less resistant and the only upgrade if only the machine gun.
oh and you will ofcourse be a beta tester when i anounce the marines (might take some time as i am now working on expand the doctrines)
i think i will add marines, but you need to have the upgrade in the infantry doctrine for two cp to give them HMGs, and they wont get bazookas, i already have three different squads with bazooka :/
ok i'll wait the beta and see the red devils.
you do realise the red devils were British paratroopers right?
