whoever told you that the base game is atrocious, is either lying or hates the game so much that any opinion just becomes their own "truth"...and you shouldn't listen to those non-objective people anyway.

yes, the game has a steep learning curve, but there are enough guides out there that helps.

don't start using ga,e-changeing mods in the beginning, first learn the game (which can take a long time).

I do use some QoL mods, but they're mostly map and icons colouring mods:

- colored railways
- tanks icons (US, Germany, Red army etc...)
- Coloured buttons GoE
- non-reflective water
- alternmative naval base icons
- alternative air base icons
- dooms map choices
- modifier icons
- historical flag pack

Alright thank you

I also like running with Player-Led Peace Conferences, because I think the vanilla peace conference system suffers from some jank AI and personally I don't like how it calculates war contribution. Plus, it leads to a ton of border gore, which I despise.
