Unit Overhaul Mod v4.8
Now with two event-based lore rich 2021 Sandboxes. The first is a 2021 map with every military formation placed according to 2021 data, foreign bases, APS sites, cartels and hundreds of events that happened between 2021 and 2025 plus some more potential events, tied in with News Events. The Flat Circle History video serves as inspiration. The second is an alt history 2021 map that details a nuclear exchange between Pakistan and India, which allows for a new power block to emerge, the Islamic Republic. This one includes everything in the first sandbox, plus hundreds of more events and lore to build up a new world that will unravel around 2025.
Install Instructions can be found in the mod folder under Casual Reading along with how to update the GCR + Unit Overhaul Mod to 4.8 with the new maps. Follow those instructions to the letter and you will have success!
Please note that this mod works great with base SRU game but really shines when combined with DesTryke’s GC Rebalance Mod as that map has been extensively modded to a high degree of real-world accuracy according to several sources of 2021 reference data. The two event driven Sandboxes require this installation process. Please see install instructions for both versions in the included casual reading folder and change log.
Do note that there will be a slight chug of lag at game start for about 5 to 10 days while the scenario settles all the units, this will go away shortly.

Features of this update:Dozens of new unit images by Nerei, Sgt.Scuba, Mooning, and the modding team from Armored Brigage II A World Ablaze Modern Day Mod. The Rise of the Islamic Republic Phase I sandbox. Several new units, updates, and fixes. Updated AIparams.
The new sandbox, Rise of the Islamic Republic phase I, offers a fresh alt history game play. Hundreds of new events, and news items create a lore rich alt history world that recreates a modern age type of 1936 sandbox that builds up 5 major power blocs and several wild cards that are set to unleash a full non-nuclear WWIII campaign. Note this is played best on World Volatility set to None.Every country on the 2021 map is now completely modeled with accurate military structures and placement of forces, and experience on the map.Introduction of actual Military Force Structure:Actual brigades, divisions, corps, armies, air wings, carrier strike groups and other military forces have been placed in approximate locations for every country on the 2021 map. The AI will more likely reserve these at the nearest barracks or air base. However at least these force concentrations will be somewhat accurate if the player attacks these countries. The player can battle group these forces at immediate start, just lock your defense minister before you unpause. I have included Military Force Structure Organizers in the Casual Reading folder to help with this.
In addition, these forces are given experience according to training level and recent experience. Unique differences between highly trained Active Western forces and forces that rely heavily on a conscript system. This provides more character depth and connection to your forces and hurts if you lose them.
All in all, there is much more realism and tactical immersion. No more moving meaningless blobs around the map!Be sure to check the included casual reading folder for force organizers, the change log, installation instructions, and tons of other stuff to read to better explain everything!I would like to thank Carnage, Squiidy, Toothless Shark, sgtscuba, Nerei, Mooning, Goldleader108, AVP, Balur, Rehan, DesTryke, The American Patriot, Donhuang, SchmitOhaulic3, Dawsonisnotgay, ffdmh2223, Flat Circle History, Armored Brigade II A World Ablaze Modern Day Mod, max., and many others who have offered insight, data, graphics, peer review, and countless hours of play testing.
