Hello,

I have been playing hoi 2 for a bit now and was wondering if someone could help me set up some events. I noticed that the path to "industrialisation", which would allow smaller nations to punch above their weight is only really possible with big nations. Although you can develop IC and infrastructure, you cant increase resource production or manpower production unless its through technology, slider moves or leaders. I had an idea to create two events, one that would give a 50% chance to increase resource production by one of each in a province where the player builds a new factory. The other event would be from building infrastructure, and it would increase manpower in that province slightly as well as give a small chance (maybe 25%) to develop resources in that province.

The problem is im not quite sure how to go about this. I think it would make the game a lot more enjoyable if you are playing a minor power, because a nation such as afghanistan or tibet that spends 1936-the end of ww2 preparing could make for an interesting post ww2 scenario. If anyone can help or even point me in the right direction, i would much appreciate it.
 
You mean like this?
