What is this mod about?

Alright, this is dead. Hopefully something with such ambition like this had pulls through and ends up trending on the HOI4 workshop. A pleasure working with Igor.

@Igorvic, if you subscribe to the mod yourself, then go find it in your steam workshop folder, you might be able to get the files back.

@igorvic Thanks for the information I hope you'll make it work again

@Abditus I appreciate your willingness to help me out. You dont need to apologize for the writing, its perfectly alright. I have an issue with this mod, I have lost the savefiles and cannot continue to work on the mod. Thank you for visiting the mod, and if something goes well, I will let you know.

That doesn't fit into the lore. Prussia has had that land for so long and for them to just lose it wouldn't make any sense.

Mod looks interesting. It brings quite a lot of ideas to me, as oaml said. Once i'm done with my mod i'll make sure to check this out.

@oaml Discord Server is up. You can join
lazyfaire 22 May, 2020 @ 6:34am 
So you made the Rhineland and a Fascist North Germany out of the remnants of the German Reich. Ah, so perhaps a Fascist France could have an ally in the form of Germany. Also, right now Prussia has its capital as Koenigsberg, I'm pretty sure it should be Berlin. Going back to the whole French-German Alliance, you could just make France the faction leader of the Axis and later develop a focus tree for Germany with them having the chance to join the Axis, make their own faction or just be a lone wolf. Thanks for the update and hopefully I can start giving in-depth ideas for focus trees on the discord when it is ready!
lazyfaire 22 May, 2020 @ 4:50am 
Alright. I will hopefully play it today.
igorvlc  [author] 22 May, 2020 @ 2:52am 
@oaml The second update will be released today. You'll see what I did with the rest of Germany. Also all new German countries in this update will have land units, generals and field marshals, so theres actual playability
lazyfaire 22 May, 2020 @ 2:38am 
This pretty small mod really brings up a lot of ideas, I would love to see more updates in the future! Thanks!

I also have an idea about Spain. Spain could have helped France in World War 1 and maybe launch an invasion of Portugal, a British ally. After their defeat, maybe Catalonia, Valencia, Andalusia and Galicia could become independent. The British would probably take Spanish Morocco and Western Sahara. The rest of Spain's colonies would go to Portugal. Then, Spain could have a focus tree aimed on uniting Spain completely and taking out Portugal, uniting Iberia. There could also be a part about regaining its colonies.
lazyfaire 22 May, 2020 @ 2:37am 
Also another idea, I don't think the German Reich would be necessary in this mod. Instead, you could make the Rhineland its own independent nation. It would be most likely part of the Allies, gaining its independence after World War 1 with the help of the British. You could also put Baden-Wuttremburg into the faction also. Then, in place of the German Reich, you could place the Kingdom of Saxony. This would sort of make sense as Lower Saxony and Saxony encompass a large part of this nation.

Don't worry, you're the one making the mod we're just giving ideas! Also, good to know you're making a discord server! I don't want to see this mod plummet to the floor, I really would like to see it thrive and maybe who knows, perhaps it could get pretty popular?
igorvlc  [author] 21 May, 2020 @ 10:51pm 
@oaml Discord server is coming soon. It seems like all of you have better creativity than I do, when it comes to the lore :D
lazyfaire 21 May, 2020 @ 2:47pm 
Sorry for cramming your comment section but I really feel intrigued by your little mod! I am no mod developer either, though. I wish you good luck and maybe we can cooperate for the ideas and focus trees of this mod? I don't really care if we don't, though. I will subscribe to the mod just so I can occasionally play it to mark its progress.
lazyfaire 21 May, 2020 @ 2:46pm 
You also created a larger Bulgaria which makes me think they could have won the Third Balkan War, maybe with the help of the Russians and Italians. However, that would probably lead Italy to control Albania and Russia to control Moldova. In the map, you added Moldova as a larger nation, which ties into this greatly. Moldova could have been a Russian puppet state which broke away in the eventual Russian Civil War. Perhaps Austria-Hungary would help France in World War 1 and that would lead to their defeat. Although, I think the German states, who would probably throw themselves behind the British in the Great War, would release Bohemia while Russia would puppet slovakia. Hungary would split away from the Austrians too. Slovakia would probably find themselves rebelling against the Russians because they had the civil war. Hungary would definitely get involved and gain Southern Slovakia. This could cause a notable war a couple years into the mod.
lazyfaire 21 May, 2020 @ 2:38pm 
The ideas of the other two people have me intrigued. However, I think I favour the American Civil War. It would be refreshing to have Eastern Europe pretty divided among nations. The Russian Civil War of the ww1-interwar period could end in victory for the White Movement. This would tie into divided Eastern Europe, perhaps the Tsar would die after the war and instead of a communist takeover, a Republican provisional government would take over and lead to the declaration of the Russian Republic. However, many of their lands were lost to other nations wanting to break away in the battle for Russia.
lazyfaire 21 May, 2020 @ 2:29pm 
Also, with Ireland, I don't think the French would give the rebellion any support in the hypothetical ww1 scenario, mainly Britain vs France. By now, Ireland would probably be an autonomous state of Britain and would soon try to win its independence, the first war of the mod, perhaps.
lazyfaire 21 May, 2020 @ 2:29pm 
But, for now, I am thinking that perhaps Germany could be never united. In the Franco-Prussian War, what if the Germans were defeated and the French gained some land and set up puppet states in the south? Then, France would be the Germany of history and would perhaps be defeated in World War 1. This could lead to France being in massive debt and could spark political turmoil within the nation. Their puppet states would most likely break free if they haven't already. With the whole revolutionary vibe of France, I am sure before the start date of this mod that France could have gone either far left or far right. Communist France is pretty cliche and would basically just be Kaiserreich France so I am thinking that perhaps the French State, a far-right nation would pop out.

Discord server coming soon? I would love to give ideas and maybe even try to design focus trees ( only the names of the focuses, what they do ) but it would be much easier with a discord server! Thanks for trying to make a mod, this really seems interesting!
igorvlc  [author] 21 May, 2020 @ 5:01am 
You should be able to click the countries and play with them (even though there is no focus tree or units)
igorvlc  [author] 21 May, 2020 @ 4:53am 
Mr.Scruffles and SuperToxic SU, does the mod work for you when selecting it? Do you see the newly created countries?
Dr. Mattathias Medicalschool 20 May, 2020 @ 5:33pm 
I also think that a good Idea would be adding a Civlwar in russia as germany is already split up and far less powerful and I think if you head over to the fallen eagle mod and do somthing like that I think it would be great!
Dr. Mattathias Medicalschool 20 May, 2020 @ 5:30pm 
@SuperToxic SU Great I deo would love to see it in this mod!
Bodza_Tea 🏳️‍⚧ 20 May, 2020 @ 2:19pm 
Believe in yourself, dont give up!

The ideas i have on the Americas:
Make the USA split 3 ways:
1. (MONARCHIST) Kingdom of America (mostly east coast)
2. (COMMUNIST) American Union (midwest region)
3.(FASCIST) State of America (mostly west coast)

Make Canada independent
Make Chile and Argentina into one country
Make a unified Carribean country
(These are my ideas, I hope this mod gets good development and fully releases one day!)
