Hey Kaiserteam, suggestion for new version of your beatiful mod. Do you plan to include some more 'imperial' music? German song in loby makes great atmospfhere for mod, can you add more Prussian marches and stuff like that instead of vanilla WW2 music? It would be great. German pre-WW1 marches, Austrian songs, international songs for Syndicalists, maybe some jazz for USA... just suggestion.
 
Fascism never rose in Italy, and National Socialism doesn't even exist in Kaiserreich, so that's why they're not in the mod. That explanation is simpler, I think.:)
Well, I wouldn't be too surprised if there were a few National Socialist parties running around in Kaiserreich. Namewise, that is- ideologically speaking, the closest analogue to the NSDAP and its imitators would be the National Populists.
 
So what countries do you think are fun in this mod?

I would suggest Germany, Austria and Commune of France, in current version I think that playing with one of Chinese faction could be great too, especialy if you take German puppet AlgOstAsien corporation and cause Republic of China to revolt. Then you switch to RoC and enjoy the game.

There already is a "Syndicalist" music pack, but I dunno if it was made for Kaiserreich or not, however, I use it a lot :D

Interesting, thanks!

I'd say almost every major nation. Germany, Britain, Commune of France, USA and Japan for example all have a lot of events and routes to take.
 
I personally I enjoy the CoF the most, but I've also had many great games with Russia and the Qing.

hey all, first off, great mod! thanks for your hard work.

some thoughts:
1) after the 2nd US civil war, if USA wins the peacetime IC modifier is like -94%. this makes it impossible to supply the army and do anything. it should go back down to -75% or maybe less?

2) if canada takes new england and alaska and republican curtis is president is there an option for them to give NE+AK back, or to at least to get claims on NE+AK?

3) it seems odd that the northern communist country would have the same initials as the Confederate States of America, and the southern fascists would have a name with the word "Union" in it.

4) as germany, if you go the Guderian research path the initial land doctrines aren't deactivated

Isn't Ernst Röhm (one of the purged 'left-wing' of the NSDAP IRL) around in the game? Pretty sure his ideology is National Populist, so yeah.
 
Just downloaded the latest version of the mod, but there's a couple of questions that have been nagging me for some time. I'm still a bit hazy on the background info, but It was a Bolshevik revolution that took place in Britain, right? As opposed to the Syndicalist one in France, that being the reason why Britain isn't allied with the Frenchies. I think. My second question is wether or not there's a chance of another attempted revolution in Russia. I saw a very snazzy looking Soviet flag in the files when I was browsing the flags... Does this happen at somepoint in-game, or is it a feature yet to be 'wired in'?
 
i think the british revolution was supposed to be an isolationist syndicalist government.
 
No Bolsheviks unless the Russians fall to the Bolsheviks, or start another civil war.
All commies in this mod are Syndicalists, except the Russian Mensheviks/Bolsheviks, IIRC.

It's meant to be a joke.;)

i think the british revolution was supposed to be an isolationist syndicalist government.
IIRC it started with a strike in the north of England that was supported by labour Unions, Socialists, the Labour party, etc., and things just got out of control.

One question, what is the point of the German political parties in-game? They don't seem to do much.

Why do people get confused about this - in Kaiserreich Britain is a radical socialist country, as in a combination of radicalism and socialism. It's not as hard-line as syndicalism :)

Also, thought I've since seen reference to such ugly names as Maximists, I did write up the main political groups of this new country a long time ago, and they are based on historical divisions from the war. So if you like the mod and the UoB, please pester the team to do something with that material and get rid of the horrible, horrible faction names they have at the moment :D (I forget most of them, but they are things like 'Maximist')
 
One question, what is the point of the German political parties in-game? They don't seem to do much.

They were set up by Sarmatia in order to provide for various outcomes in Germany's domestic events; i.e. they reflect the coming to power of various political parties in Germany (and may have been used in a civil war).

But do they actually do anything?
 
I have a little question. When the Italian Federation unifies Italy, is the Reunification event not supposed to give the rest of the cores?

Also, may I suggest that you guys use an undefined nation tag to create a Monarchist/Catholic France, if you haven't already?

They could use the Bourbon tag, they wouldn't even have to change the flag.
 
But do they actually do anything?

They do not appear to do anything from what I have seen. Personally I think they should just be scrapped in favour of additional revolters.


EDIT: I made this flag for Canada http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=ef7fafe...5c33e5f69141eed I prefer it to the current one, but it's pretty pixellated unfortunatley, as I do not know how to make flags other than with the flag maker. So if anyone want's to use it feel free.
