I am first to this mod. What country would be good to play first learning the time frame and politics?

There you can find interesting info about the nations!
I'd suggest Russia, really. You have tons of oppertunities and can do almost anything. Plenty of events(most of any nation in-game) and powerful enough to hold your own, while not so powerful that your responsibilities are overwhelming.
thanks for your answers!!
after the release of the pack for DH vanilla, i will start the work of conversion to KR

Having previously played Kaiserreich for HoI2, I wanted to try it for Darkest Hour. Not all that different, really-- the same fun game I remember with some added improvements.
A few comments:
* When the event arose for Iceland's independence, it was released... but Denmark retained control over Reykjavik. Not sure why. Possibly it was because Scandinavia had been formed? Otherwise the events that followed worked normally, though it seemed strange that the events said Canada had been given the rights to base troops there (even though I was not given military access to Iceland) and the following events had Canadian troops clashing with British forces even though neither of us had troops stationed there (nor could we).
* When the American Civil War ended (with the USA victorious), and event started that had me turn all my seized lands in Alaska (as well as the land I'd taken from the CSA) back over to the USA in exchange for an alliance. Which was nice-- getting the USA into the Entente was useful. It also, however, handed over Prince Rupert and the Queen Charlotte Islands to the USA. They eventually handed them back, but it was still weird.
* I helped Delhi reconquer the Princely Confederation, and they got an event after it was done. I then helped them conquer the Bhartiya Commune... but there was never any kind of event following that which said anything about unifying India, even though they had the entire thing (and had annexed it themselves, as opposed to me annexing it and handing the territories over... though would that make a difference?). They retained cores on the Delhi region and only had claims on the Princely Confederation and Bhartiya lands afterwards.
* the Union of Britain fell rather easily. I got Ireland into the Entente, and from there it was rather easy to land an invasion force in Glasgow and march south. My force wasn't overwhelming, and none of the other Entente members landed a single army to help out (though their planes did help a bit), but mostly I just slowly fought south until I could annex them. So fair enough, right? The restoration of the UK event worked well enough... my only complaint being that the "merchant marine returns to the UK" event took away 250 convoys. Far more than I had or started with, leaving me with negative convoys and escorts until I could restore them. That was harsh.
* I know it probably doesn't always fall this way, but in this particular game the Syndicalists fell rather easily. Germany ended up in a war with Russia (Russia allied with Don-Kuban, even though they were losing to Ukraine... and thus ended up at war with Ukraine's allies) and the war with France et al started while Germany was still at war. Worst case scenario, right? Except that Germany eventually defeated Russia, turning it into a vassal, and then annexed France less than a year later, turning it into a vassal as well. Austria, who joined Germany by event, annexed Italy (which the Syndicalists had united) and turned it into a vassal as well. By 1842, the wars were all done and there seemed little left to do.
All in all, it seemed a little strange that the Syndicalists never lifted a finger to help the Bhartiya Commune or Mexico or any of their other fellow Syndicalist nations. Perhaps I'm missing something from the Syndicalist expansion pack? Seemed like a lot of fuss over nothing, and the Germans walked over everyone. Though I suppose, like with the old Kaiserreich, I could probably play a new game and have everything turn out very differently.

They don't exist in Kaiserreich, there was much debate about it but I think it was voted to not be in the mod.
The closest nation to it is the American First Union.
Since Bosnia does have a sea connection (and a naval port) through Mostar, same thing should be with Lithuania (Silnuai (?)) and Slovenia (that prov next to Trieste).
The event that allows Canada to take the Panama Canal doesn't fire making the ACW difficult to end.
Yeah there was a missing } in one section of KR 1.1. Let me pull it up...
View attachment American Civil War.txt <<Link
Insert that in the USA folder inside the Kaiserreich events directory.
Should be:
C:/Games/Darkest Hour/Mods/Kaisereich/db/events/USA
How do you get the event to switch to the PSA in the second american civil war? I have played a campaign and didnt get it.
There isn't one. You have to actually quit the game and load up as the PSA from your save.
If it was possible, an event to switch nations in the ACW would actually be pretty great. It would be especially great for multiplayer games.
How do you do that airpirate?
Also how do people do the aars with these nations?
Gosh thats what i was hoping for NCR versus CSA cold war.

When you select your saved game, instead of selecting the country you started as, pick another. Its a lovely feature.
AAR's are just the players creating a log of their game, but add on roleplay and commentary that make them much better than just seeing a bunch of images of how the world is turning out.
I've been thinking of making one, but I cheat too much...
I've done a world conquer with Colombia no cheating.
Too easy to not get punished. Big boys should declare vs a lot of badboy.

Haven't been keeping track, but have any updated scenario files been published since 1.1? There's some obvious issues with the Tech setups from 1.1 (for example, Canada building/fielding carriers without having researched the tech that activates CAGs) and unit setups (lots of infantry with Medium tank brigades attached - although the game accepts it, this is an impossible/illegal combination to build.)
That should be fixed by the most recent beta. What's worse, in my opinion, is when Canada does take it, and then refuses to give it up to whoever wins the ACW in the postwar diplomacy. The Americans duly invade Canada and overrun it after the non-aggression pact runs out (like the Italy-Austria pact that doesn't cancel for an Ausgleich or a dead-pope war), but can't annex because the Canadians control the Panama Canal. Yeesh.
