Walkers Special Project plus

Unleash the Mechanical Might: A Hearts of Iron IV Walker Overhaul

Step onto the battlefield of Hearts of Iron IV with a revolutionary new force: the mechanized walker. This mod, a dedicated fan update to the original Walker project, introduces a fully realized walker technology tree, allowing you to design and deploy colossal mechanical units that will reshape the course of global conflict.

Expanding the Mechanical Menagerie

Prepare to encounter a diverse array of walker classes, each offering unique tactical advantages. From the agile Medium and robust Heavy walkers to the imposing Super-Heavy and futuristic Modern variants, the battlefield will never be the same. Each class boasts specialized versions, including Anti-Air, Artillery, Anti-Tank, and Flame support, ensuring you have the right tool for any engagement. The path to unlocking these advanced chassis is tied to researching corresponding tank chassis technologies, provided you’ve first mastered the fundamental walker research.

Key Features of the Walker Special Project Plus Mod:

• Diverse Walker Classes: Medium, Heavy, Super-Heavy, and Modern walkers, each with specialized variants.
• Unique Equipment and Icons: Distinct visual assets for each walker class, with special attention given to unique icons for the USSR and Germany.
• Nation-Specific Naming: Immersive project names tailored for major powers like the USSR, Germany, USA, Britain, and France.
• Innovative Support Companies: A unique Cruiser Walker support company, offering specialized combat capabilities.
• Advanced Module Research: Multi-tier leg upgrades and specialized superstructures unlocked through dedicated special projects.

Design Your Destructive Dozen

The Tank Designer in Hearts of Iron IV becomes your personal engineering bay for these mechanical marvels. Here, you’ll craft your walkers, equipping them with specialized modules and configurations to suit your strategic needs. While the production menu might initially flag walker chassis as “Outdated Equipment,” simply enabling the “Show Outdated Equipment” option will reveal them, ready for deployment.

Beyond the Battlefield

This mod also introduces creative solutions for support units. While a full Land Cruiser walker proved unfeasible, a Cruiser Walker has been integrated as a support company, requiring a standard Land Cruiser to field. This company possesses its own distinct terrain statistics, adding another layer of strategic depth. Furthermore, dedicated icons for both German and generic cruiser walkers have been added, enhancing the visual experience.

Experience a significant expansion of walker capabilities with unique module research. A two-tier leg upgrade system, with the second tier unlocked via a dedicated Special Project, enhances mobility. Additionally, a Twin-Gun Superstructure, specifically for light walkers, can be acquired through another exclusive Special Project, dramatically increasing their offensive potential.
