[HoI3] Manpower changes in 1.3?

**ahmed5** · December 19, 2009, 05:09 AM

Ever since i patched 1.3 i noticed one huge difference: i can never have the manpower to rapidly create masses of divisions that i was able to do before. ive also noticed that other countries are somehow able to produce loads of divisions.

For example, i played the UK. i had around 100 infantry divisions all over the world - most in france. i tried to produce more but my manpower was nearly zero - i did not even dare to make tank divs. france, on the other hand, had well over 200. when i played france previously, i remember only coping to reinforce 80 - so how the hell did the AI manage to create so much? what the hell have i missed?

Cheers

P.S. my strategy of making men is the following: set to the lowest draft, produce loads of reserve divisions, set back to highest draft possible and then set to mobilize.

EDIT: when i say division i think i meant brigades....nonetheless its the same principle

Never have that problem, at least for China (34 manpower per month).

Bad for you, I simply put Service by Require since there is no harm but only benefit.

Don't really bother me, since I hate reserve units; not to mention manpower slide change does not relate with amount of IC to build reserve units. The building cost and time is simply relating how experience you have to build that type of units - build more, you get more experience.
