There's my first mod for only single player campaign mode.
With this mod, your missions will turn into a struggling battle between victory and defeat.

The enemy had the strongest and powerfull tanks in the battlefield, so prepare to plan new strategies to defeat them or you will have lots of trouble on all missions.

There's a good ammount of features in this mod, see the next post

EDIT: Attachment removed, mod updated! See this thread for the 2nd release of my mod: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=2777#p26902

- Still in Cam 1 ('bout 6 missions completed) but already it's a fresh, like new, fun experience.... Thanks BP. Next best thing to a sequel Cam....Just 1 minor oddity so far - Scav Base with a Project Power Gen... no big deal really.

- I'll continue to post my experience as I get deeper into it.. looking forward to the super tough battles ahead.....

Regards, whipper.

I just played the very first Mission and i must say: They almost destroooooyed me! Oh man.. xD
Awesome Mod anyway since the Original first Missions are way too easy (by the Way: i recommend the Tutorial as the first Mission in Campaign). Only Thing you could improve is the Energy Amount. For those strong Units a bit more Energy is desirable. Reason: I had to wait for Minutes to produce enough Energy to produce enough Units. No Problem itself to wait for Energy, but those Minutes are Minutes of doing nothing.

P.S.: Your red Warzone-Title doesn't show up at me in the Main Menu.

You probably shouldn't use 2.1 balance as a base. Try Rebalance.

Using 2.1 balance will make all but a few T1 weapons useful. In particular, it will make Campaign 3 trivially easy, because Scourge and Gauss are so much weaker than Heavy Cannon, Howitzer/Archangel are so much weaker than Mortar/Ripple, and most other T3 weapons are so much weaker than T1 weapons.

Heck, it'll make late Campaign 1 wonky, since the biggest threat was NP's lancer towers, and lancers have been nerfed significantly.

This happens with me too, even i tried to put the image inside of the mod, but that doesn't worked, that's why i removed from the mod

Try reach on Alpha 5, get ready to fight off HPV Scorpion Tracks III or so Assault Gun Scorpion Tracks III.

If i increase too many the energy power, the campagn will be easy because you'll be able to produce lots of units

OK, i'll make some changes of the mod to make sense of it.

- I agree. That's one of the things I've found enjoyably different in the early missions I've played so far - managing limited
resources.... rather than just simply spamming the Scavs. IMHO, the power balance is good. I've actually had to think in terms
of supply line logistics and creating at least 2-3 combat groups with different but coordinated objectives.. Very enjoyable to think and execute real strategy and tactics as opposed to simplistic spamming.

I think the Scavengers stole that power generator xD

But, in fact, i don't know how to change their power generator to their scav variant on their last base on south of Alpha 2 mission :-S

They have too a Project Research Facility on Alpha 4 and a Cyborg Factory on Alpha 6

Sooner, i'll release the second version of the mod, just hold on...
