Please don't make me do more cringe formables - Reviving a dead empire of 2k years is no fun. There is also a new leader for some formables.

- “Disable Axis Armor Pack” mission should not be visible if you start the game without the axis armor pack. (No “mission completed” notification.)
- Letter mod is back. Changes include: No more 5 day timer to send letters and a new background. Button is no longer hidden behind the arrow, it's now a normal diplomatic action.
- Force Coring now uses a dynamically calculated amount of Infantry Equipment to core states. The number of guns required to core each state is refreshed once a month..

For minors and majors with a claim this value is further divided by 5. Peaceful coring via the tool will use state-based values on a later date.
This heavily weighs the population primarily. If population is not properly weighted, you can core land with nothing on it for cheap. If it is weighted too highly, cores in very densely populated areas such as India and China cost “ridiculous” amounts of guns to core. Currently its about 4ish thousand guns for things in Europe not having industry, and 30k for things in China. Depending on feedback, this may be amended in the future, but there is no good way around the fact that some areas just have metric tons of people.

GER:
- Colonial Leadership Portraits have been added with new characters such as Franz Ritter von Epp, The Kolonialregiung and Theodore Seitz and the Legend Paul Von Lettow-Vorbeck leading their correct regions of administration.
FRA:

UPDATE FOR THE RT56RP MAIN MOD
CHECKSUM: 9e21

- Medium Aircraft designer’s buffs were changed. Reliability was useless.
- Volunteer Decisions have been completely reworked.
Dev comment: US has been locked from the decision unless they go Limited-Intervention. All Nations may disband their volunteer corps basically granting back the negatives of what they do.

- Reworked Purchase Weapons Decisions

- Greater Japan is no longer available for Democratic Japan.

- Several (too many to list) nation-specific integration decisions have been buffed.

GER:
- Imperial Colonies in Africa now have correct flags and specific leaders for each colony instead of randomized generics and the original nations flags (Hope you like it 😉
- ”Revive the Treaty of Brest Litovsk” Focus is updated and creates interesting new situation in the east if the Russians accept the peace offer! [This Focus is available both for Monarchist and Fascists]
FRA:
- Removed the ability for France to deny Rhineland-remilitarisation before July 1939. Event still fires, the option to declare war is not available. [Disabled with the Baked In Rules option set to Disabled.]
- Added events to de-escalate France and Germany’s strained relationship.
- The Colonial Blobs now have their own flags [Bit of artist creativity here on them as Simpy had no idea what flag to put there so he made a mix of all of em] And because so many of you complained - Algerian Desert stays with France.
- Added some focuses under the Legitimists monarchy path.
PRC:
- Added some capture ratio to PRC military focuses.
- Coded in Hides for unavailable paths. (Going communist, hides the Fengtian path, as an example.)
- "Prepare for War" Focus will now grant all generals above lvl 2 the trait "Camouflage Expert"
MON:
- Removed check for is in faction with soviet on NKVD in the “Form the Provisional Government” tree

YUG:
- Reduced the length of some focuses down to 35 days.
- Fixed a bug where the leader trait “Underage Monarch” would not disappear when authoritarian, effectively locking out “The Coronation”.

BUL:

USA:
- “Arsenal of Democracy”, “The Giant Wakes” and “Wartime Industry” now require Congress support to implement. When at war the required support is lower.
- “Neutrality First” disallows sending of volunteers, including the generic decision; justifying on nations that haven’t caused world tension, and disallows sending lend-lease. To lend lease, one must use the “Lend-Lease Act” focus. To justify on nations that have not caused world tension, you require “Wartime Economy”.

- New decision tab added for the US to core Canada, some of northwest Mexico, and claim Cuba/Central-Mexico.

- “Trench Warfare” entrenchment was reduced to 5 from 10.
- “Defense in Depth” entrenchment was reduced to 2,5 from 5.
- Volunteers are now only available by forming a volunteer corp through the decision first - the idea or “National Spirit” has been removed and replaced with an active decision modifier.
- Redid Plane icons (Cosmetic change mostly), implemented old Road to 56 icons for nations that had them, mixed some with vanilla icons. p
R56RP DID NOT make these icons, we merely implemented them. If you like the icons, give R56 devs some love on their discord.

- Construction Speed bonuses from “Partial Mobilization” “War Economy” and “Total Mobilization” have been removed. This is to stop majors snowballing with military factories late game. [A smaller amount of factories, also means less units which means less lag.] - Subject to change
- “Evacuated Assets” Military Factory amount boosted to 5 from 3.
- “Full Host Reliance” removed the civilian goods penalty. Added a lack of resources penalty nullifier, since you cannot import resources while in exile. [At least in my experience, testing shows it works fine so idfk. Give me a DM if after capitulating you cannot import any resources.]

- Moved autoloader into 1942 Electronic Engineering.
- Moved the support company unlocks for flamethrowers into “Flamethrowers” tech.

Persia and Ottoman formables now require a percentage of states to be controlled, instead of all states. All of the highlighted states still get cored. [Suggest other massive formables, except continent ones, that should get this rework in #suggestions. Do not suggest small formables like United Baltics and Benelux.]

JAP:
- “Supremacy of Will” and “Supremacy of Technology” require you to finish one of the diplomatic focuses now. This is to avoid rushing “Supremacy of Will” before going
Democratic.

FRA:
- Starting French Political Focuses changed from 70 days to 35 days for a quicker ideology pick. Rebalanced times throughout the tree [Yes i’ve been told France is OP. - Rebalancing National Spirits after this patch.]
- Merged French Colonies into bigger blobs for Game stability upon doing decolonization focuses, upon completing Vienot - Syria will no longer go free [Going ultra-alt history for MP performance] and continuing down the tree will create Mega Colonial Administrations [Check Pic below]
