inflation

What exactly are the effects of inflation? does it only affect prices or does it also affect morale and VP( historically, it certainly had an impact on southern morale)?

Inflation in the game only impacts the money you have to pay for new units. So, over 10%, the Militia that used to be 7 Money is now 8 Money, etc.

There is no impact to National Morale. Though, the events that trigger inflation typically also trigger NM raises.

I personally think the Inflation penalties should be higher, particularly for the CSA. That would create a vicious spiral of having to do greater takes to keep up with rising costs, kind of like real-life.

Very possible to mod yourself. I've been looking at the file Gameoptions.inc in the Includes directory. Look for the line [color="Red"]$gmaPaperMoney[/color] and see what you want to adjust. Just make your backup previous to all that, of course.

This inc file is only used at scenario creation though, so you have to recreate it from a script.ini file.
