The Democratic Paths

We already showed the new paths in the Discord server or at least mentioned them. The way democratic Russia will work now is through Trials and Investments. The Trials will include deciding the fate of certain people, or even tracking down Joseph Stalin, who flew the country!

The Track for Stalin decisionns

But I won't spoil you more... Just be aware that every feature added always has multiple endings. Oh and... I'll just leave that here..!

;)

You will then be able to either continue down the existing route (which has been improved and granted some more focuses) or choose to end the investments. From there, you'll either go with the conservative party (United Russia) and start expanding your influence (Russian democracy eheh) or oppose United Russia with the progressive party, which will focus on allying all democratic nations against Communism and Fascism.
So yes, you either become the "good" or "bad" Democratic Russia.

One of the key features of Progressive Russia, the External Threats decisions




The Non-Aligned Paths

The Non-Aligned path has always been very popular, but not for good reasons. The Tsarist path, although fun, lacked late-game content. As for the Military Junta, they were simply too overpowered. Forming the Slavic Empire was very easy to do. This is why we decided to add more content for the Tsar, and up the difficulty for the Military Junta to form the Slavic Empire (while also adding more content).

The new focuses for the Military Junta. More things to do, but more possibilities! (GFX are WIP)

You now have to plan your every move and slowly take all the states needed. You might face some resistance, but who cares?
The Tsarist path has seen a lot of new content added, such as The Fate of Turkey, the Fate of Japan, a Slavic Economic help plan, or even... An impostor?! (amogus jokes incoming)
You can also purchase African colonies. Yes.

The Impostor (sus). Guess what happens if the bar reaches 100%!

Some... Crazy stuff the Tsar can do!

Obviously, it allows for way more content and gameplay, but also replayability, many things could go different one game from another.




The Fascist Paths

The Fascist paths have always been our most successful paths. They are well designed with a lot of content. This is why we did not really change anything but rather upped and downed some numbers. It's still worth noting we did some huge changes to the Russian Women's Fascist Movement.
