Somehow I missed this mod until I today, it seems cool just a few concerns. I understand why the ruling party becomes elites, but the NCR always kicks non-matching ideologies as far as I know, so it might be impossible to do the focuses that require you to be in the NCR faction so that might be something to rethink. Also there should be bypasses on the focuses for Eastport and Timberline being independent if you already own them because I didn't get around to Eastport until after the Eighties had already conquered them and I had to use cheats to continue the focus tree at that point because I annexed them and then released them as a puppet without realizing they needed to be free to do the focuses to puppet them. I mean I guess I technically didn't have to cheat that but it would of required lowering autonomy to annex them then releasing them again which seemed way too tedious. Also I'm pretty sure this is an edge-case because I moved way too slowly on the Troll Warren and they lost to the Mirelurk tribe somehow, but when I got the event that puppet-ed them it stole my cored land from the former Marrowdrinker land because for whatever reason the Mirelurk tribe let me have that territory but I had to fight them for the starlight line anyway. That was way after the decisions to core it all though. Basically it seems like that event should just push them back to only the warren to avoid issues like that similarly to how the Shoshone already work. Anyway this sub-mod was a lot of fun and I will definitely try it again after the next update.
