Hi, I'm new here, though I have read the forum for a while. First off I want to thank you for this mod. I love the mod, I am really into WW1 and the idea of what would happen if Germany won really appeals to me. The alternate nations, the idea of a communist France and UK, So many possibilities. I played it a couple years ago when it was for Armageddon, I've forgotten a a bit though.

Anyways, some questions. I have only had the mod for about a week and haven't done much except with Germany. I hear that as Playing as the USA if you win the civil war you loose all your tech teams, army units and possibly IC. Same with Canada taking back the Union of Britain. Is this avoidable? Even if it happens, can you lessen the damage? Is it also possible to play as another nation besides Germany and win? It seems to me Germany is just too powerful, then again I could be wrong since I've only played as Germany and needed help from the Danubian federation to beat the French(which by the way really pulled their weight) but I didn't expect the French to jump on me like that. Is it possible to get a real challenge out of being Germany?

Then there is Asia, I am expecting the event where Japan invades China and I get drawn in, its 1945 and nothing. Is it because I let them have the AotG in exchange for an alliance? What is needed for the event?

Want a challenge as Germany? Do your best to fuck it up big time for awhile, then try to function with all that damage. That's the best advice I have for you. As for Japan and China, the Japanese won't invade unless they decide they want to have an empire in China. They can also choose to invade Russia, islands in the Pacific, or even to attack Germany. At least, that's what it was like the last time I played with them, which was during patch 1.0. In short, Japan won't attack China unless they damn well feel like it.
 
Shame, in the last Kaiserreich, they'd jump on China each game. As for the events as UK and Canada, is it possible to fix them like a Hotfix or minimize the damage? Its very discouraging for me to play as the USA or Canada if I know I'm going to loose everything for winning. I've also heard there is no surrender or armistice/surrender event If france Takes over all of Germany.

lacks events for danubian thing (austria with all power). it only gets like 4 events than Game over basicly unless u join entente or a faction and just wait for a war.
 
i was playing as Russia two times (took imperial Russia options)and around 1940 i always got an error. After which i couldn't reload, loading screen shows an error and closes the game. Previous auto save doesn't work and close the game as well. Have anyone got the same problem?

If you're talking about the Commune of France, then that is only partially true. After occupying all of Germany, the empire capitulates to the colonies from which they will continue to be at war with you (but really aren't able to do anything) but all mainland German provinces are transferred to France. After that, you get an event that lets you decide what happens to Germany, either a new German state, a new German state with the Rhine as the border, dividing Germany into four states (three of which are your puppets and one of which is the UoB's puppet), dividing Germany the same way as the last option but with French occupation of the Rhineland, or simple occupation. Germany making peace in this case wouldn't make sense, seeing as the Kaiser wouldn't sign a peace with the syndies even if all of Germany was occupied as long as there are colonies to move too. Besides, Germany loses most of her colonies after surrender, usually leaving only German possessions in Africa and sometimes Vietnam.

Could there be a chain of events where if Germany loses the war in continental Europe and Mittleafrika refuses to shelter them, the German empire disintergrates (so revolts in Morocco, Vietnam etc and seizures by Japan, Yemen, Arabia, Egypt etc...) with maybe an event mentioning where the Kaiser ends up (probably in the Princely States or one of the neutral South American powers).
 
I really love this mod, I played it extensively (With DH 1.01).

Here some thoughts and problems:

-As Canada when I conquered UoB, I couldn't reload saves (Got an Error Message then a crash)
-As UoB when I conquered all of Germany (except for Eastern Prussia which was controlled by the CCCP), there was no surrender event (I had all the main Cities)
-France pretty much loses every time, ie Germany is no challenge (But that was already mentioned I guess)
-There is no enemy for Japan (Conquered everything they conquered in WW2, had the biggest fleet in the world)
-Russia is too easy too (Has also no real enemy)
 
I was Playing Kaiser Reich with a friend recently, I was CoF and he was Germany. We were tip toeing around each other for a while, supporting different sides in civil wars and such, when I had an idea. Wouldn't it be better(at least in MP) if you could take military control of the side your supporting (like the Spanish civil war in DH Full). That way the build up to WW2 is far more exciting and you can have a sort of cold war when playing multiplayer with each one trying to win nations over to there side.

Oh and he owned me in the end, the war was over in 6 months. The CoF has far to little man power. Also when I was depressingly trying to hold Paris with 30% strength divisions, UoB thought it a good idea to send there entire army (except Garrison of course) to invade Montenegro.
 
In the mod you should change the province name of Tver, it's the Soviet-era name Kalinin.

And why can't I build armored divisions in this game

EDIT: Nevermind solved it I have to research the Arm div formation

Hello, I recently played as Union of Britain and have seen following bug: UoB already has the rocket base tech researched, but the particular rocket tech are still unavailable and never turn so.

Also, the war in Africa is rather boring: German Empire should make peace, when moving to Africa. Marx wrote once, that socialism is higher phase of human cultural evolution, and comes after the phase of capitalism. I think, that ruling syndicalists will let capitalists to colonize the continent without intervention.
And... the German capitulation event (moving to Africa) should sleep German foreign policy events; for example Quing join Mitteleuropa, etc ;-)
 
I have to signal a bug regards the chain of events about Columbian-Papal alliance in 1.1 version: playing with Italian Federation > Kingdom of Italy (hope to see soon more events towards Monarchical Italy) all the three choices regarding intervention in Columbia fired both the alliance and the intervention, so forcing my nation to leave the coalition builded so far. Naturally i could avoid this selecting Columbia and manually trigger the event to refuse the papal aid, however i wanted to let know this.

EDIT: The event fired the same even if Columbia refused to request the alliance.

Not necessarily... in one of my previous games in 1.0, Portugal ate all of Mittelafrika. Of course is an exception, but was interesting.

This might not be the right place, but I gotta ask: What does this code-string mean?

Code:
date = { day = 14 month = november year = 1936 }

Does it mean that it is only in november (the 14th to be exact) will this event take place? And if you miss it (by being in war in this case) it simply doesn't happen?
 
If it does not have an enddate that is the only date it can happen, yes.
 
The smaller / medium sized AI countries are not trading effectively.
For example, Hungary has a big deficit on energy but surplus on rares.. It won't exchange the goods and its IC is working on like 25% capacity if the human player won't interfere. Noticed this playing Austria as human, and since I'm low on all resources myself I can't really help those guys.
Also I believe they should try selling money and/or supplies for any resource that they lack since the cost in IC is usually less than the IC gained..

What a great mod! I found this a couple of months ago but am getting deeper and deeper and really doubt I'm ever going back to vanilla. So you're getting new fans, guys! :)
 
There is a bug in the event for the Italian federation, when they choose whether or not to attack Austria, when the Austria civil war breaks out. If the Italian Federation choose to do so it triggers war between them, but it doesn't cancel there non-aggression pact. Resulting in the fact that there at war but can't attack each other, unless one of them cancels there non-aggression pact(which the AI doesn't do) or it expires some time in 1939.

The Bengali Soviets (Bakhtria or something commune) has two land doctirne trees, both the soviet one and the german one. WAD?
