Since there's no response from the old dev, I'd recommend checking out my mod which was inspired by him: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2946751576

This mod was awesome! Any update coming?

does this work ?

I think you can just make a fork, but IDK. I am not a lawyer.

By the way is the creator still working on this mod? Seems based on his latest comment he is not so its better if someone else with the experience and skills takes it over from him with his permission, right?

So has this mod been updated to 1.33? and are there any more features beside the one mentioned above?

Does this mod let you enslave native people and russians?

Yes, I have and no it does not

has anyone tried converting a game with this mod to victoria 2 through the converter? Would it work?

Colonies should be really devastated by plague if any growth happens from there its certainly from slaves. But all of it is instead represented by a hatman you pay instead

It'd be funny if this mod was real, too bad it's just fiction :(((((

F

Needs Update for 1.33 for some reason.

SLAVERY MOD

BOTTOM TEXT

Does this Mod also do anything with the Vanilla rendition's Decision to abolish slavery?

How does this Mod fare with unusual colonizers like, say, those in Africa or Asia, who manage to get a foothold in Africa and beyond?

Does this work with Victorum Universalis - Total Conquest? (aka VU)

Is this compatible with the Expanded mod series?

I'd be curious about talking to the dev about incorporating some of the code into Land of the Free (with permission and credit given, OF COURSE!)

Thanks :)

Is there option to not do slavery, when I am colonising americas?

(1/2) As an additional note on Kudomundo's proposal, mind that I am not a programmer: A mechanic could be that a province can only produce slaves if it borders another african province not owned by you. Perhaps a descision or province screen button could allow a province convert to produce slaves, but it would revert if it's not on the border. To further incentivise this, all slave producing provinces would provide the nation with an incremental military bonus, which may have a cap of some sort, possibly also getting a similar incremental diplomatic debuff.

(2/2) Maybe the amount of slave trading provinces would have some benefitial effect on colonisation, but only african tags can produce slaves, so colonial powers would have little reason to conquer more than a few ports in Africa. When slavery is eventually abolished any nation which has abolished it would get a CB on a country producing slaves, this would have next to no agressive expansion and a massive prestige bonus. The military bonus for producing slaves in a province would dissapear when no non-african great powers remain which practice slavery.

I realise this is likely unrealistic, but I thought it would be fun to put on the white hat.

We (regrettably) did a small amount of tomfoolery.

We do a little trolling, its called doing a little trolling.

I agree with Kudomundo, but I'm not sure if the mod author want to put in that amount of work. It would be a good addition though.

Please, add flavour to abolishing slavery as well. I don't like how the game portrait it as just pressing a button, when in real life the US had a civil war, and Brazil had the abolition of monarchy as consequence of abolishing slavery.

A good read if you're interested; <https://bahamianology.com/800-slaves-sacrificed-in-tribute-on-the-death-of-gezo-the-great-slave-king-of-dahomey-1858/>

Slavery has always been massively profitable throughout history and the modifier for abolishing it doesn't have enough financial consequences nor rewards in manpower gain or army morale/discipline. I like to play as a warmongering bastard and I figure freemen are more motivated fighters (and less likely to desert) than slaves are.

I can easily see scenarios where you're playing as a coastal african nation and you're encouraged to keep declaring war on your neighbors without actually conquering their land or making them vassals. The arabs & europeans trade your foreign captives so you can rake in tons of sweet, sweet CASH, Military Tradition, mil-tech points, ect. But if you actually try to go conquer inland, you have to mass-enslave the populace, adding severe Devastation penalties or even lowering the province development by a few points so you can get a super big CASH boost short-term.
The long-term consequences being that the slave supply from you dries up, the foreign elites of the american colonies & europe bitch to their King Inbred IV that they're running out of slaves to build their gold toilets, so now everyone wants to invade your ass.

It's important to remember that a huge chunk (if not the majority) of slaves were prisoners of war. It's part of why it has such a pain in the ass for the British to end the practice of slavery worldwide, it was so profitable for the tribal rulers in terms of both money and prestige.

Incredible mod. While EU4 is great fun, it is scary how we literally have buttons to murder indigenous populations just because we want the extra few ducats; but the near absolute erasure of the slave trade is just as erroneous. Thanks for this.

Can this be used along the Expanded Family?

Time for a little bit of trolling

It would be cool if you play as an African nation or a released nation with high afro ethnicity culture you can get a decision to end the slave trade by going to war with the major slaver nations. Maybe by forming a coalition of the abolitionist nations/ or all of the released afro nations.

conquistadors start sweating intensley

so there's no way to size, stop, increase or decrease the number of slaves that enter a colony?

I dont get the decision to start for the slave trade, where is it?

oh how i wish i was in the land of cotton

Is it possible to not get involved in the slave trade?

Based

Woah this mod is so cool! It adds more flavor to make the game more historically accurate, and feels more realistic!

I really like the idea of this mod! Quick question though, Does this mod work on large overhaul mods like Victorum Universalis?

Random new world

As afro ameriv\can bard, I LOVE this mod, no offense taken, keep it up

I really like this mod and I want to use it but it's not downloading. Other mods on the workshop are downloading just fine but this one doesn't show up regardless of how many times I subscribe and unsubscribe. Could someone help me out?

Wow this is actually kinda cool

Is there a way to play as one of the slave revolts? Such as Hati or start a Slave Revolt in the US?

is it compatible with ET?

Thank you, I've been looking for a mod like this, one that actually addresses the history of Chattel slavery in the New world and it's consequences. Enslavement was necessary for the expansion of colonialism and because of it's brutality left numerous slave revolts. This is a huge aspect missing from the game.

I don't think recognizing historical fact surrounding chattel slavery should imply affiliation of any sort, nor would I say recognizing the positive impacts in some regard when such things were done, EU4, as most games, (especially PDX games) shouldn't be ever thought or played from a moral context, else I'm pretty sure we'd all be psychopathic genocidal communist maniacs. (that being the least of our "virtual crimes") Anyway, seems interesting, I'll check it out.
