OWB - Unleashing the Monster

Description
"OWB - Unleashing the Monster" builds upon the post-Hangdogs war section of Lanius's tree for players who choose to continue building up the legacy of the Monster of the East instead of being directly assimilated into the Legion.

The mod:

- Adds 27 new focuses for the final third of Lanius's focus tree, allowing him to ravage Mexico and undo Paullus's failure, pursue emergency wartime policies and more!
- Adds 7 new events fleshing out the final chapter of Lanius's story.
- Removes checks on the Colorado and Texas conquest mini-trees, allowing Lanius to go down both paths regardless of whether he has chosen to remain in the Legion or strike out on his own.
- Rewrites some of the localisation for these paths to account for Lanius being either independent or part of the Legion, framing his loyalties to be more ambiguous.
- Adds 2 new formable nations hinging on the player's relationship with Caesar's Legion.

Please let me know if you spot any bugs.

@kurita with the latest update to OWB the devs did some very minor changes in the first half of the focus tree to fit with the updates for Colorado

@Lord Headass there is a new Lanius focus tree?

Can you update this to be compatible with the "new" focus tree?

Ok thank you!

This mod does not touch the Diana alliance path, it explicitly states so in the description as the option for players who would otherwise be assimilated into the legion (IE the loyalist path). If you want an expansion to the Nova Legion route, I believe there is a separate submod out there

I sided with Diana, did not form Eastern legion, so this mod does nothing then? I just wish to side with Twin Mothers Diana, and abandon Caesar. Is that possible? Can I form at least 1 of the 2 new formables? Do I have to go Eastern Legion or can I just remain Lanius Cohort and side with Twin Mothers, leaving the Legion and forming the Nova Legion?

I havent but I bet Nova Legion is in there?

Get to one of the bottom three focuses of the tree and you'll find out

I also encountered the crash around 2278. It doesn't happen in vanilla OWB
