Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg - Global Alternate History Mod for HOI2

[Johnny Canuck]

When is the China situation gonna be looked at? Cause I've checked the forums and it seems nothing is happening so I'm just curious when it's planned for a look over.

There will be some changes to Qing ministers, leaders, & tech teams in the next beta of v1.2. Further Chinese changes are also being discussed on the KR forums, such as in this thread.

I understand the problem about cores, but the reason for it is simply because otherwise in, all honesty, there is little gain in Mexico's victory. At most i think it would get a 3rd tech team, nothing more. Even with all CA i think it will still stay at 3 maybe barely reach 4. So with that, if i continue my event chain, a possible 2nd war between USA (if it exists, or even AUS) would be quite unfavorable for Mexico. With little ic and manpower gains even from victory, the other power would simlpy overtake it.
Any other feedback is welcome and or suggestions, thanks for the corrections. -Leon
P.S.
Do you guys all think it would be better to just annex Mexico with no cores? (USA victory)

How about annexation with no cores, then some random rebels eventa nd gain of cores after a while (couple of years).

There are some things that should be fixed with territorial claims in revolt file and events.

Italian Federation and other Italian state should have territorial claims on each other and on Venezia.
Croatia shouldn't have territorial claim on Montenegro and Serbia on Osijek.
Bosnia should have territorial claim on Banja Luka.
Over event Hungary can't have national provinces in Croatia and Austria( does it has on Bosnia too?) and same with Austria if Hungary accepts centralization.
Poland should have territorial claims on it's core regions from start of mod, not over events( if player or AI chooses).
Japan shouldn't have national provinces in Korea.

Italian Federation and other Italian state should have territorial claims on each other and on Venezia.

The Italian Federation gain cores on the Socialist Republic of Italy via events once it conquers it and viceversa ("The Second Italian Riunification" event). They also both can gain cores on Trento and Venice when they conquer them.

Over event Hungary can't have national provinces in Croatia and Austria( does it has on Bosnia too?) and same with Austria if Hungary accepts centralization.

This is due to the Ausgleich event chain, it surely makes sense as long as there is a peaceful annexation.

Poland should have territorial claims on it's core regions from start of mod, not over events( if player or AI chooses).

There are events for that, if they had cores from the start this would let to problems in other event chains if I'm not wrong (for example the release of a Prussian puppet by the Commune of France).

Japan shouldn't have national provinces in Korea.

Why not? I think it has them on Vanilla too, what has changed in this Mod? Besides, Korea can revolt or can be released by Japan through peaceful negotiations.

I know, I always found that stupid from Paradox.

Great, I finally annex American Union with Syndicalist and then New England declared war on me and I had no defense there since I didn't know they would attack me.
Now I'm pretty much doomed and have to start all over again.

[Vesimir]

I know, I always found that stupid from Paradox.

They also have claims on Taiwan. And Taiwan is full of chinese people.

So I kinda don't get your point. It's not about the population. And the Japanese empire believed Korea to be a part of their nation.

Japan has cores on Korea for the same reason most of the European powers had cores on their colonies. The Koreans might not have liked being ruled from Tokyo, but they mostly resigned themselves to it. Same goes for the European colonies.

Taiwan is a rather unique case. It was a society compromised of different Chinese and indigenous Taiwanese peoples. Yet unlike in Korea the Japanese actually slowly encouraged these peoples to coöperate with them. Plenty of Taiwanese later served in the Japanese armed services, while many Taiwanese spoke Japanese as a lingua franca.

Therefor we will maintain the cores on both of them. Cores doesn't represent people accepting rule, but not resisting it in these cases.

That'll teach you to NEVER trust ANYONE in Kaiserreich

You managed to win the war. And then you couldn't stop the few divisions New England has from defeating you?

In Hearts of Iron territorial claims are same as national provinces.
That's why it can't be.

I only had there 2 militias, 1 infantry and 1 garrison there and I can't spare any reinforcements since most of my army is fighting with USA on East.
It would easier if Pacific States were at war with USA.
And how in the world USA get all that army in such short period?
Events?

I didn't know they would be event where they attack me( Canada is allied with them but not in war with me).
Otherwise I would have defenses there.

I really can understand these nationalism and the problem with cores in Korea; look to my country, where Venice is Austrian core: do you really think that the majority of the population spoke German? It simply shows that the people stopped fighting against they oppressor. The same logic can be applied to Hungary: they can get cores in Croatia, Bosnia and Galitia because the locals became "used" of foreign rule.

That's why I say that you should also protect everything. One event can change everything and there are alot of those events in KR

That is what I hate in HoI 2.
Events that I have no idea that will happen and it will screw up my playthorugh.


Oh and I was playing with Union of Britain and Lithuania annexes Poland, Austria declares war on them and Germany kicked it's ass.
So why would Poland accept that?
Ans why can't I ally with Communist France even though my Interventionism is high and our relationship is +200?

This is basically the point behind cores in Kaiserreich, they are used to represent the peoples in the province accepting the rule from the nation that occupies them. There are many events where nations gain cores after they pacify an area.

Thats Kaiserreich for you. The main charm IMO is the unpredicability of the mod. Will Russia emerge as a democratic nation or a Soviet superpower? Who will win the American Civil War? How will Germany fare against revolutionairy France? Those are all important factors when considering your strategy.

That is what I hate in HoI 2.
Events that I have no idea that will happen and it will screw up my playthorugh.

Small tip: if you wish to know a bit more of the chains, look at the database and learn a bit more about the possible outcomes.

They usually kick they asses even though I with Union of Britain invaded them and raped they fleet.

[Keioel]

Ok cool...my main concerns are with the Qing anyways the way they gain cores is completely insane and some of the ministers traits were interesting. Had to fully change the events and the way they work so I look forward to seeing what the changes are.

There will be some changes to Qing ministers, leaders, & tech teams in the next beta of v1.2. Further Chinese changes are also being discussed on the KR forums, such as in this thread.

Where can I find the flag of the Italian Federation, the Italian Socialist Republic, and the states of India? Kaiserreich Wiki does not have in their records.
