Horde Defense Mod brings in RPG like elements and AI improvements to make the Player vs AI (PVE) loop more interesting, prolonging standard game times for epic large scale engagements. In vanilla COH2, the AI can be dealt with relatively easily through cheese or fundamental understanding of the game mechanics, but in the Horde Defense Mod, the AI will scale progressively through the match ramping up the later the game progresses. This AI will attack you with overwhelming force and combined arms. Ostheer and OKW forces are buffed significantly enabling a human to compete with the AI advantages.
Players are meant to play as the Axis against SOVIET, USF, or UKF opponents.

RPG elements come in the form of 15 ranks of veterancy, over 100 unique unit upgrades, and abilities that allow a standard Grenadier (for example) to become a force to be reckoned with. Most infantry squads can be upgraded with squad leaders, automatic gunners, designated marksmen, or all three (in some cases). It's not unusual for a veteran Grenadier, with upgrades and equipped weapons to be able to hold off several squads of opposing units. A fully upgraded Panther might be able to win a fight vs several T-34s/Shermans if the player controls correctly. This also means units can be left alone more safely without hearing about how you lost a squad across the map.

The Ostheer is a defensive force that still maintains a considerable amount of resources. One of their main features is the ability to construct supply caches on territory points increasing their teams resource generation. While expensive, in the long run, they will pay for themselves while also denying the enemy?s ability to cut off your back line. Be warned however, the payback period is close to 10 minutes meaning that while an early investment will pay off sooner rather than later, an aggressive enemy can punish you severely.
In addition, the Ostheer still have access to most of the Luftwaffe?s capabilities so upgrading the Luftwaffe Command Post from the Infanterie Kompanie enables the commander to call upon Luftwaffe Ground Forces to build much needed flak emplacements, and Luftwaffe Combat Controllers who can coordinate Air-to-Ground support.

With resources dwindling, the OKW doesnt rely on standalone structures or prefabricated buildings, but mobile trucks that can be set up as makeshift command and control. As such, their economy is handicapped and vulnerable to back capture. However, what they lack in economy they make up for in strong early units and the ability to build strong points around their key feature the Vorwarts Stutzpunkt.
Replacing the Schwerer Panzer Headquarters, the Forward Base acts as a bastion during the early game able to repel infantry and light vehicles while providing buffs and abilities to friendly forces. Each forward base can be upgraded with a Specialization that denotes the class of abilities it has access to. Each forward base specialization has 3-tiers and 4 different choices giving 64 different builds for a total of 256 possible permutations!

[USF]
The United States Army focuses on a heavy infantry core of elite riflemen on par with their German counterparts. They also have a robust officer core that lead from the front buffing all nearby troops, eliminating them will go a long way in reducing their staying power. Expect heavier pressure earlier than the Soviets, but on average less armor to deal with.
Unlike the Soviets, the USF has more variety in their units depending on the Commander in charge. Armor Company, for example, will deploy more armor units and special units the like M10 Wolverine while the Ranger Company will field more officers and better equipped main line infantry.
Suitable for 1v1

[UKF]
Besieged for a better part of the war, Britain?s manpower attrition has forced them into a defensive position attempting to maximize the value of each soldier. They will utilize heavy emplacements and strengthen allied rear lines while providing fire support. Their troops represent the (surviving) cream of the crop of Britain?s finest and can pose a considerable threat to infantry but will rarely outnumber Axis troops.
When combined with a strong, all-around ally like the AEF, UK Forces can help backstop Axis advanced while US Forces push into enemy lines. Expect them to set up defensive points to defend points of strategic importance.
Suitable for 1v1

[Soviets]
The Red Tide. A vast horde of men, machines, and administration. Conscripts make up the bulk of their infantry force and while numerous are easily dispatched, but be warned, as soon as the main Red Army arrives fields of T-34s as far as the eye can see will run head first into you. Prepare accordingly or you will not survive.
1v1 at your own risk

- This mod shines on wide open maps that cannot be easily chokepointed and is designed to be MOST FUN on very large map. The objective is to lock down your territories and have defense in depth. At least 2 lines of defense. That means, layers of tank traps + barbed wire supported by suppression weapons and backed up by armor with infantry support.



1. Create your custom game
2. set Tuning Pack to Horde Defense Mod
3. set Win condition to Horde Defense Mod: Annhilation/Domination (optional)
4. Standard Resources
5. set opponent AI 1 or 2 Standard Soviet, USF, or UKF AI
Developer note: The AI is tuned specifically on the [Standard] setting so use caution when creating AI allies to standard as well. Preferably set AI allies to [easy] or [hard]


- Play on a large, open map and set up defensive positions ahead of time. The Allied forces will increase dramatically in number as the game progresses, but the strongest waves won't kick off until about 15 Command Points. This mod shines on wide open maps that cannot be easily chokepointed and is designed to be MOST FUN on very large map. The objective is to lock down your territories and have defense in depth. At least 2 lines of defense. That means, layers of tank traps + barbed wire supported by suppression weapons and backed up by armor with infantry support.

- I recommend a 2:1 ratio of players to standard Soviet AI or 1:1 against USF/UKF opponents. If you are solo you can also play with AI on your own team I'd recommend adding a hard OST (OKW AI are unable to fully utilize) to your side for every standard on the opponent side. If you find this still too difficult make your ally an expert for the next round.

- Ostheer players need to build Supply Caches and invest in Stockpile upgrades for them. OKW players will want to place opel blitz trucks in defensible territory. You will want to generate as much income as possible early on.

- OKW players will want to build Forward Bases in order increase income and buff their territory holdings


Always appreciated :)
