An event chain for Hitler, such as the day he came to power, his persecution of jews, the olmpyics, his annexation of Austria, etc.

Hi,
I'd rather not add any genocide stuff (you can already expel Jews, and let's leave it at that).

I thought about adding event chains for historical figures (so you can get national unification claims or CBs), but after playing two German unification campaigns (as Prussia and as Austria) where everything smoothly went along historical direction with just base game rules I'm not sure that would add much. CK2 is far too chaotic in practice to do the kind of event chains Vic2 or HoI3 (or even EU4) get away with, but it still flows relatively neatly at least for national unification or national independence movements.

I haven't played Hitler yet, so no idea if he needs anything (AI Hitler in observe mode is definitely rather too passive for my taste, no idea how to fix that). If anybody were to record some let's plays of that, it would make it clearer what ought to be added. I'm thinking some bonuses like event troops whenever you conquer certain key points.

I wasn't exactly thinking that Jewish genocide would be a major point. I didn't play Hitler very long, but without any event chains or special claims that I expected, it quickly became stale. If I ever get the time, I'll record a let's play and send you the link.

As Hitler you have special kingdom-level CB which costs ton of prestige to use and can't be inherited. I guess that this should be key special feature of the campaign, but I never played with it.

Really? Do you have to start at the suggested date? I went directly to the day Hitler went into power and started and had no CB that I can remember.

Hitler gets his special CB in every bookmark from 1934.8.2 onwards, he's landless before that. According to mod that's when he got the power, in 1933 Paul von Hindenburg was technically head of state (I'm not sure how to make Hitler Hindenburg's heir in earlier starts).

You can declare "Invasion of Austria" or "Invasion of Czechoslovakia" war day one if you want to, it will just cost you 500 prestige.

If you run charinfo 1 with console and mouseover their portraits, Hitler and Stalin should both be flagged horde_invader in tooltip in any bookmark when they're in charge.

Some kind of Olympic event chain to get prestige would be very cool if Hitler started with CB (which needs 500 prestige to use), but no prestige. I'll do some thinking on how to implement event chains for Modern Times.

why not add modern clothes? f.e.x. if in 1815, rulers should wear clothes that resemble the time period, same for 2015?

not like modern clothes but a prince for example in the 1940s probably wears a tux, i think that is how most nobles dressed and still do dress now. But you ought to study how nobles looked in 1815 - through 2015. This would make it much more realistic.

Well, I can't draw anything more complicated than maybe some flags and icons. You're right that modern clothes would be cool, if anybody wants to help with that, it would be great.

Pls fix Eastern European and Asian borders. They are pretty much the same for the last 200 years, but CK2's borders just don't fit with them

MLG karling: I'm considering setting up some kind of American invasion horde events, but I rather thought they'd intervene in the Middle East. In either case, it's very likely to happen sometime over next few patches depending on how tests go.

Rodt_1: Currently I have no plans to change map borders on county/duchy level beyond renames. It would be a very large project, all of the work might get invalidated by inevitable China DLC, and it would make fairly minor gameplay difference relative to amount of effort needed. If anybody volunteers to help with that, I'm open to it, but in terms of my personal priorities it's not likely to happen.

is it just me or is this the mod making people disappear in the game? one of the mods I installed, maybe this one. Is anyone else having the same problem? I verified if all the files are good and they are, but people's heads for example disappear in the game. It makes it unplayable for me, I at least want to see a person's head!

But it might not be this mod that screwed with that, perhaps another. I am just checking to see if anyone else here is having the same problem?

Mod does absolutely nothing to people's appearance. Old versions added some new religious icons, current version doesn't even do that and leaves graphics how they are. (it's also 100% compatible with Anime Portraits mod).

I'm pretty sure it's some other mod.
stickypepsi13 17 Nov, 2015 @ 2:10pm 
If you have the Better Looking Garbs mod, that may be the root of it. I installed and it made everyone disappear, with nothing the clothes left.
