Suggestions for focuses and future direction of the mod
Feel free to post your thoughts here and I may or may not take from your offerings. If you guys manage to reach a consensus over some proposed change then there is a high likelihood that I will try to put it in.

We need some Trotskyist focuses. Trotsky was way more democratic than Stalin (who wasn't democratic at all), so it'd be unlikely he'd utilize the NKVD or an organization like it. Maybe stuff like national unity and factory output bonuses.

I think we need MORE focus on Trotsky! More ways to start wars! More Communism!
(Also, some way to go Democratic of Fascist would be nice, Alit History is fun)

More focus on Stalinism.

I am going to be adding a couple of Stalin focuses, but the meat of the next update to the mod will be a whole set of Trotsky focuses. Perhaps I will put in some fascist/democratic focuses in the future, but it wouldn't be for a while.

Thank you comrade! Make Soviet Russia Cheeki Breeki again!
(Also, whether you add this or not, I don't care, but It would be hilarious if you could have a truly Cheeki Breeki National Focus tree, likely with Mayonez as leader XD)

That is an interesting idea. I wouldn't put in focuses for it, but it may be fun to eventually put in a secret event that you can get if you do x, y, z and get a Cheeki Breeki leader, bonuses, and Anthem.

Boris would be proud, Keep Cheeki-ing the Breeki, or something like that... but slight problem, now That the mod is updated and I can play it, it does not work, the Focus tree does not show up... ;-; I just want Trotsky Senpai....

What about more diplomatic focuses that makes it easier to expand the comintern. For example something that removes the base reluctance for communist nations towards you or something.

Ok, I finally got it to work XD it turns out it is not compatable with Road to '56, ;-;

Could you confine comments like this to the Bugs and Incompatibilities thread? This thread is more for suggestions for focuses and events :P

I would suggest expansion of the man, the myth, and the legend, Leon "The Real Boi" Trotsky.
Mr Tsubodai  [developer] 9 Mar, 2017 @ 10:27pm 
@Awuxy, might you be a little more clear as to what you mean?
@Literally focking Stalin, nice name - it actually drew my eyes to your comment which somehow I didn't see even though I've scanned this thread many times, (?) no idea how that happened. It is a good idea and I will try to work in an effect like that to the next update.

Used to be "Dimitri Borislav"

Well unfortunately, I didn't remember/see the suggestion made by Mr. Borislav. It seems as if Stalin was able to command my attention though ;)

Maybe a focus giving Thotsky a opional better trait focus like the default hearts of iron tree has. One of Thotskys main goals was total equality, maybe a Focus that grants Total and Complete Equality that maybe gives a factory output boost, a research time reducer, or recruitable population. Also maybe the Thotsky alternate character trait list has a trait that reduces the Political Power cost for boosting party popularity of communism in other countries (Permenant Revolution). Also maybe a focus called Continuing Lenin's Plan that grants national unity and production efficiency. Just a few Ideas. Also one question, is the Thotsky trait world revolution supposed to have you declare war on every country?
