Welcome to Commanders in Conflict
You may have played Sonnenblume, the very first map of the Official SPEED5, Hearts of Iron IV, 1vs1 Gamemode. Well now get ready for Season One of the the Commanders in Conflict mod. Season one comes with three maps, 12 faction picks (6 per nation) and a whole host of re-balances and bug fixes!
The Gamemode pits Axis vs. Allies on a cut down map of Hearts of Iron IV. The map is set in North Africa, 1940. The name of the game is either, by the end of the hour, capitulate the other player (Totally defeating them) or hold a majority of the key victory points.
There are two phases of the gamemode, Setup & Battle. The Setup phase is the first year, where the players will begin to plan and develop their industry, as well as possibly pick their faction choice. After 365 days pass in game an in game event will automatically declare the war - starting the Battle phase. From that point on a player will begin to achieve one of the two victory types.
How to Win
Capitulation Victory
A Capitulation Victory is when one player completely knocks out the other by taking enough of their territory to capitulate them, or by one player surrendering before the time is up.
Point Victory
Point victories are achieved by holding all or a majority of the key Victory Points by the end of the 60 mins of play. The Key VPs are visible at all times in the decisions panel
The Victory Points also provide bonus resources to the players meaning that holding them also provides a tactical advantage.
Factions
Each nation contains 3 Faction pick focus trees, each providing a unique bonus to the player nation. For the uninitiated, think of these as Champion picks for LoL or Agent picks in Valorant.
