    Yes bad design does allow exploits. However any design is going to allow a player to game the system if they want. Its part and parcel of HOI3. The game play is full of exploits and many of them are built into the vanilla game. BICE at least compensates the AI for the worst of the exploits, much...

    I will be around here more. There is a new version of the mod almost ready for release so I will be spruiking that and answering questions about the mod, even from ol' bug a lugs captain exploiter with the massive chip on his shoulder. :australia:

    Your a weird little man aren't you ! I made the mod and you think you know it better then I do :D I see there is no point bothering to have a discussion with you are all you will do is cherry pick ways you gamed the system to support your crusade against BICE. Have fun with that. maybe you need...

    The CA bonus techs are scaled out over the entire multi level of the techs. In theory you could tech rush these and build divisions using only those unit types. That's a good example of gaming the system. Its not really that much fun though. Your choice here of course. the thing is CA bonus is...

    good thing is at least over on the paradox forum iam compiling a sticky thread of all the threads various players have posted which give tips and suggestions for playing the mod. The idea being that this might work as an info bank for new players. There is no doubt that BICE changes so many...

    There will always be people who abuse/ game the system. That's their choice of course. fact is the player has much more cheats over the AI . Some are because the AI isnyt very good at using the game mechanics - such as paratroops and basic things such as holding back a strategic reserve or...

    haha yes, bollocks.1 and bullshit.1 as event ID ! That's gold :D In fact I am inspired to add an easter egg into BICE thanks to this thread and its butt hurting predilections. Maybe a Haitian Super Carrier named HCS Butthurt Codex :australia:

    Yeah I agree that General secretary concept didn't work out. Finland doesn't have a specific national focus decision as yet. It relies on the generic national focus. We could make one specifically for Finland easy enough however is it really needed ? It would add more immersion for playing...

    sorry I am new here and didn't realise the spoiler trick could be used. I wouldn't normally post that sort of stuff anyway, the butt hurt name calling made me think of that painting for some reason.

    Artillery and in fact all units have some degree of frontage. So you can in fact defend with just an AT unit. However the difference is such a unit will likely vaporise due to low strength very quickly. Artillery was open to an exploit in previous versions of the mod due to its high soft attack...

    point to me where I said the player is punished by AI bonuses for not playing how we want the player to ? Fact is BICE is very open ended, however it is set within the historical parameters. In that sense you could describe BICE as being a historical immersion mod, or even historical fiction...

    whats with the obsession with butthurting here :D ? I mean each to their own but surely a little bit of variation from that part of the anatomy is healthy ? What about boob hurt ? or long legs hurt ?

    Hearts of Iron 3 Tips (SF, FtM, TfH)

    Its not really AI cheating in that sense. There are modifiers in place for the German blitzkrieg which are also in the vanilla game. By themselves these won't make the Germans unstoppable. It is possible for example to halt the Germans as France despite the German blitzkrieg bonus. However with...

    I was simply responding to the above comment " Black ICE is bad". The guy is entitled to his view as much as you are to your slight attempt at being witty (hint, its probably not your strong point). However I can easily point out why the mod is worth playing as much as what I will say its a mod...
