#HEARTS OF IRON IV DIVISION TEMPLATES UPGRADE#
Equipment already in the field won't be returned unless it is replaced by an upgrade or the template changes so that type is no longer used.Įquipment priorities īelow is the division equipment button and to the right of the template name are the division priority options. This allows the player to control what specific weapon types the units with this template may use, so it is valuable if the player is seeking to have certain units use older equipment and stockpile a reserve of new equipment for other units or other purposes such as lend-lease shipments. Selecting this button will bring up a new menu showing all of the equipment stockpiled that the template can use. To the right of the parachute icon is the Division Equipment button.

This division won't receive M1 Garand rifles. The starting units tend to be smaller or pure infantry, and will benefit later from adding other troops types. Players need to be mindful of opportunities to improve their forces by adding better templates as they gain army experience, since the starting forces of most countries do not represent ideal formations. To transition divisions to a new template on an individual or rolling basis rather than all at once, the template change can be made in a duplicate template and divisions reassigned to the modified template when desired. Templates can be modified, and such modifications apply automatically to all divisions using that template. It allows players to create organizational templates for divisions - units that can be assigned to command groups and engage in land warfare - which are then able to be trained, equipped, and deployed. The division designer is a utility located in the recruit & deploy menu of the user interface. If you spot a mistake then you are welcome to fix it.
