The Guns of August

An August 1914 Campaign from side of the Central Powers

WARNNING!!! THIS IS AN EARLY ALPHA, THIS IS NOT THE FINAL PRODUCT!!!

I will be updating this mod regularly and be thankful for feedback. I hope to produce a near final version by this weekend.

This is a campaign starting in August 1914 playing in the side of the central powers. I'm using this as a test for new mechanics I want to implement that will come to mod later this week.

Version 1.3 (still unfortunately in BETA state):
- adapted to TGW 2.1 version. I will further test for any issues I might have missed.
- More allied reinforcements that will continueally incease untill TGW vanilla numbers
- more Axis reinforcements, but you will still be outnumbered
- Correct achievements for the campain
- Forest attributes will now work correctly

Version 1.2 (BETA available):
New:
- New attributes:
Forests - forests prevent armies from building supply depots and slowing down troop movement, making it harder to attack
- Liege now has the Verdun map correctly implemented
- Correct win conditions for CP
- Allies will start mobilizing from turn 2
- Starting Armies for Central powers
- Starting Armies for French and Belgium
- BEF and British and French colonials will arrive from turn 2 until turn 7
- No technologies
- German supply dumps for invasion
WIP:
Flatland - flatland gives the attacker a speed boost to its tactical troops and increases FOW for everybody

What you can expect in the next version V1.3 (BETA):
New concepts
- new attributes simulating fortification and economic developments
- highly scripted events: As Germany in August 1914, you have a limited time window to win the war, the odds are against you, from the onset of the blockade, you will lose NW, and you need to gain it back by winning. The allies will keep getting more and more troops
- and more
