Units for the Spanish Civil War

Well, I have created a bunch of units to use in a few scenarios centered around the SCW (at first it was only supposed to be an introductionary level for an extended version of the PG Classic campaign), but I ended up spending quite some time trying to get them come out right, so I figured they deserved a SCW mini-campaign. I started creating one, but I think I just don't have the time and resources (books etc.) to do a proper job right now, so I put it on hold and returned to working on PG Classic instead.

However, the units are all finished, and Rivendarke reminded me that he intended to use them as well, so I figured I'll just upload them for now as-is.
Chances are I'll pick up the project again sooner or later, but until then, have fun with some SCW units.
Here's the download. (V1.02 with fixed flags for Rep. naval units and fixed availability dates).

And here's a screenshot taken in the editor depicting all units that are in:

Have fun.

A few of your units have some date issues. For instance #10056 From Date 01Jan2025 To Date: 31Dec1939. I would assume it should be 1925 and not 2025.
:wink:

That must be Excels work, I'm absolutely sure to have entered this correctly when I set up the units originally in OpenOffice.
Anyway, I fixed the dates for these four units and uploaded a new archive.
Thanks for pointing this out Xerkis.

No doubt that it's Excel.

Hi Rezaf,

found another little bug. All ships in the file belong to the Nationalists, seems you forgot to set the flag from 9 to 10. Only exception is the submarine, belongs to Free Poland... :lol:

Heh, I guess I cannot blame that one on Excel. :P
Thanks for pointing it out, updated the download with a fixed version.

Hi Rezaf,

I have expanded my blackwhite bigunit mod with your new units. Maybe you want to add them to your file.

Nice job rezaf. Have you also created the large 256x256 icons for the production screen?

I haven't created big pictures iain, but rivvendarke has posted photo-pictures in the post just above yours.

Excellent work, rivvendarke, btw., I'll include them in an optional download in the OP, if you don't mind.

Makes sense to offer them seperately as they dont work with the generic mod enabler but you must replace the files in the game itself.

They will also be included in the next release of the blackwhite big unit mod.

Rezaf: The download link for those units is not working... Would you be so kind to upload the file again? I would really want to obtain them!
Thanks a lot!

Hello, I'm using this excellent work for my campaign SCW. I believed that the author of the mod "Italian campaign" was its creator, new mistake, I apologize.

Over these past months I have been collecting detailed information about the Spanish conflict and I can assure you it was nothing easy or cheap.
Detailed information units, deployments and maneuvers not online, at least in Spanish. Hugh Thomas, A Beevor and others are too general and barely mentioned details, it is necessary to go to much more detailed sources, Specifically to the books of JM Bande and Rafael Casas De la Vega, who have extensive and detailed bibliography of the conflict made ​​with exclusive information taken from the historical army library, which is not available to the public.

I love to see that there are such great modders interested in this war. It would be exciting to play a good campaign mod made ​​by any of you. I'm awkwardly trying to get something minimally interesting.
Meanwhile I keep doing things very slowly. I have the audacity to add and modify some of these units. I assure you that these new units are needed in any campaign or scenario that you plan for this war. We could discuss one by one if you do not agree.

You have to add some more, for example Flak 88 Legion Condor, 150 mm artillery for both sides, and Dewoitine and Potez for Republicans and some units SE ...
