Combat Power Projection System

Combat Power Projection System (CPPS) creates an additional framework to Civ V's normal Supply system that adjusts the capabilities of front-line "Combat Units" to move and engage enemies, based on that Civ's ability to project power away from its own territory. The further a unit is from "friendly territory" the better the chance their performance will be impacted. In CPPS terms, these impacts range from limiting or stopping movement, preventing a unit's ability to attack, and sometimes damages those units (i.e. remove HPs).

These effects are even more pronounced if the civ has excess units. CPPS adjusts the game's basic formula to allow for a much larger of units to be in supply, but when those limits are exceeded, the impacts will be felt throughout the empire.

CPPS Rules Changes:

1. Global Production maximum reduction for excess units is now 25% (vice 70% in normal game)

2. The formula that determines the number of units in supply has been adjusted, based on game difficulty, to allow more units to be in supply

3. Units still heal, but at lower rates: – 5/5/15 HPs per turn on enemy / neutral / friendly territory (vice 10/10/20 in the normal game); City heal rate is 20 HPs per turn

4. Attrition: This is a new feature – the core component of the CPPS. Attrition is the possibility that HPs are removed from a unit at the beginning of a player's turn, and also the possibility the unit will not be able to move and/or attack that turn. It simulates the normal erosion of combat power (injuries, damaged equipment, etc.) that happens to units that are engaged in active operations, i.e. maneuvering outside of friendly territory. The following factors impact the likelihood of Attrition, and also the potential degree of that impact:
* Units without a working "Supply Line" (q.v.)
* The distance a unit is from the nearest friendly city
* Wars with other major civs
* Game difficulty level

5. CPPS impacts Combat Units differently, depending on their location:
* Friendly territory: Combat Units move and may initiate attacks normally. If the civ is at war with another major civ and also has units out of Supply (based on the modified, more generous formula), there is a small chance these units will suffer Attrition.
* Neutral territory: Combat Units in neutral territory have the possibility to suffer Attrition, either in peacetime or at war.
* Enemy territory: It is in enemy territory where units have the highest potential to experience Attrition. There is a higher chance of damage, a higher amount of damage, and a higher chance the unit may not be able to move and/or attack. These numbers increase if the unit is adjacent to an enemy unit/city.

6. "Supply Lines" – A unit has a working Supply Line if it is within a certain number of hexes from a friendly city and is not adjacent to any enemy units or cities.
* Certain Buildings in that city increase the length of these supply lines.
* Certain discovered Technologies increase the length of these supply lines.
* Combat Units may still use Pillage to heal on enemy territory. Currently set at 25 HP / pillage

7. Combat Units may still use Pillage to heal on enemy territory. Currently set at 25 HP / pillage

8. Two new promotions. For simplicity's sake, they re-use a couple of the Kris Swordsman promotion icons:
* Expeditionary Forces Promotion: Most Combat Units (Armor, Gun, Melee, Mounted, and Recon) will automatically be given this promotion, which allows them to recover 15% of enemy unit total HP from killing an enemy unit.
* Redball Express Promotion: Units with this promotion have a high level of operational expertise. It reduces the possibility of Attrition by 33%. Must possess the Blitz or Logistics Promotion.
