NM normalization

[FightingBuckeye]

Would it be possible to make changing the Union NM normalization a game option? Maybe change what number the NM normalizes to or how fast it normalizes. You could have a setting where the Union NM only normalizes up to 80 or 85 instead of all the way to 100. And then between 80/85 and 100 there's no normalization but after 101+ it'll try to normalize back down to 100 like normal. Make the Union work to get it's NM back up. Otherwise it's too easy for the Union to spend NM, build up, and then sit back as it readies it's juggernaut. The settings could be normal NM, Union handicapped, both handicapped?

I like the idea.

What I don't really like about the NM system is that if you are winning too decisively you can lose 5-7 NM in one turn to decay.

In my mind I picture the CSA getting the news that the enemy has been routed from St. Louis - so they celebrate with a party - everyone wakes up the next morning with a hangover. No one remembers St. Louis.

Ah!

That's why your turn in our last game was late!

If had know the rebs were sprawled in the muddy streets with a hang over, I might of been able to have taken St. Louis back.

This has been discussed before. The National Resilience is hard coded to aim for 100 NM. The only thing you can mod in this direction is how many die rolls the game makes per faction for National Resilience. Check this thread for Ace's NR mod: No NM autobalance min-mod
