Several comments
Thank you guys for all of your hard work on the mod! We, gamers, really appreciate that. Please, don't give up on HoI 1.
Played several games for All sides, and here is a couple of comments:
1) Absolutely weird events of liberation of Poland. With Tsarist Russia winning the war and Germany loosing, Poland is created in three border German Provinces, with a claim to Russian Western Polish provinces but without a claim to Warsaw, Ljublin, etc. Either the claim to all Russian provinces should be levied in case of complete victory of Entente without the Russian revolution, or the Poles should demand for ALL of the polish provinces.
2) After the "fall of the Austrian-Hungarian empire" event with no Revolution in Russia, THREE eastern Austrian-Hungarian provinces (Prszemysl and two other ones) remain to be called Austrian-Hungarian Empire. Therefore, something very absurd happens: you get, Austria, Hungary and Austro-Hungary. These provinces should be included into the Russian empire, I think.
3) Russia is a complete looser when it comes to fighting. 99% of all games, if most of German troops aren't annihilated on the Western front, German and Austrian-Hungarian troops will be in Moscow, Petrograd and Helsinki by late 1915/early 1916.
4) French and Belgium defeat events are impossible to get, unless you also crush Russia.
5) When I played for the Turks and captured all of British persian provinces and puppets, captured Egypt and the war ended with the defeat of the Entente and Britain choosing to "end the war" without being defeated, the Great Britain lost NOTHING. Shouldn't the turks get at least part of Egypt even if the GB isn't defeated?
6) The greek take huge bite of Turkey even if they haven't entered the war at all.
7)Italy, when defeated by Central Powers, gets a communist (???) government. Its hard to imagine Kaiser troops proclaiming communist rule in Italy or even tolerating one. (It's hard to undersand, why europeans would not tolerate a communist regime in Russia, but gladly accept it in Italy, especially after its capitulation).
8) When Turkey joins the war, most of the British fleet is gone from the Middle Eastern war theatre, never to be seen again. Thus Egypt becomes an easy prey for Turkey.
9) Serbia is completely unconquerable for Austrian-Hungarian Empire, unless Bulgaria helps.
10) Britain should get huge dissent penalty when loosing the Suez channel.
11) Many of the events fire extremely late. When playing the Russians, I conquered Prszemysl in the beginning of the game and the according event fired only a year later.
12) Russians should get dissent penalty when loosing Caucasian provinces and Sevastopol to Turkey, and Turkey should get some kind of bonus (by the way, Turkey seems to get no bonuses whatsoever, even if it captures Cairo, Sevastopol or/and Kuwait).
13) The AI navy is almost way too weak to be considered a challenge. British fleet may be annihilated by 5-6 subs in 1 year, because of the love of AI to put all the ships in one stack of 140+ units.
14) The Russian Civil War is truly something weird. If Russia looses the war and then gets the Revolution event, then the Soviet Russia is easily slaughtered by German and Austrian-Hungarian troops but no event about the "defeat of the Revolution"seems ever to fire (why on Earth would Kaiser deliver Lenin to Moscow AFTER the war, in the first place?). Besides, Russian Federation fighting the Soviet Russia, while White Russians simply sit there and wait... it's really strange.
