# Hearts of Iron II Doomsday Armageddon: Post-Axis War MOD v0.9b by Jones
###################################################
Overview
Post-Axis War MOD is a complete series of events designed to kick in after Germany and all its Axis allies in Europe have been defeated by the major powers of the west and the Soviets. Whoever has control of Berlin after the axis in Europe has been defeated gets the initiative at the Potsdam conference events and is presented with 3 options:
After options 1 or 2 have been agreed upon, the borders of Europe are redrawn and nations that have been previously annexed will be created again. Nations that managed to stay out of the war are not affected at all.
In the past, if say Canada landed a small beachhead in Norway on the verge of the German defeat, they would retain their norwegian province even after Norway was released by say the US, UK or Soviets (who controlled the rest of the Norwegian provinces). This is fixed. ALL borders get respected. Another example, perhaps more common, is the soviets capturing the 2-3 most northern provinces of Norway while the allies liberated the south. When Norway is released by an allied player the Soviets would hold on to their provinces. This is also fixed. Whoever controls the capital, Oslo in this case, gets to setup the Norwegian government if the 1) option is selected at Potsdam. All you have to do is hold off releasing European nations and wait for the Potsdam events to trigger.
UK, USA and Soviet Union always have a veto at the Potsdam conference should option 2 be selected. The AI is programmed to accept the 2) proposal 95% of the times. This to ensure the human player usually gets his/her way. However 95% must pass 3 times and may sometimes result in a turned down answer by the AI.
Should the AI reach Berlin before the human player does, it is currently programmed to select 1, 2, and 3 at 95%, 4% and 1% probabilities.
Countries supported: ENG, USA, SOV, FRA, HOL, BEL, CAN, AST, NZL, SAF, BRA, SWE, and SPR. More can be added with relative ease if requested. This already includes all non-puppet allies plus the Soviets in addition to the neutrals Brazil, Sweden and Republican Spain. The player can choose any of these nations, join the allies and (try to) defeat Germany.
Installation instructions:
1. Extract the RAR file to your HOI2DD folder, usually C:\Program Files\Paradox Games\Doomsday. If it didn't ask to replace a few current files, you probably put it in the wrong place.
2. That's it. Easy huh?!?
Strongly recommended to be installed over HOI2 Doomsday, Armageddon addon patched to 1.1 . I cannot guarantee it will work in any other configuration. If you feel adventurous and want to use it on another configuration/mod, don't use the included events.txt file and add this at the bottom of your \db\events.txt file:
# Post-Axis War MOD by Jones
event = "db\events\post_axis-war_mod.txt"
Be aware, this mod uses the event IDs 90000-91999, 99990-99999 (for my testing only). Again NO guarantees! I recommend you backup your \db\events\ folder before installing this mod for an easy uninstall/removal. Reinstalling the game will also get rid of this mod but is far more tedious.
Other changes
* Several events from the original files have been replicated into my mod file, and where necessary changed/fixed. A new event will put these redundant events inactive so the game uses my modified events instead.
* Portugal surrender event added, simular to the FIN switching sides event. This only kicks in if Portugal joins the axis and have all their Iberia provinces captured by the allies.
Remaining issues
* I still need to tweak the national sliders and ministers for the newly created nations. Democratic/neutral ones become Market Liberal by default. Only Sweden, Yugoslavia and Albania have been changed so far. Puppets automatically use the same national sliders and ideology as their master.
* Bugs may still be present. Please report them!
Future outlook
This mod may be expanded to include a revised post-war Asia event series. An AI mod that makes WW3 more of a challenge might also be added in the distant future.

Appendix B: Changelog
V0.9.2b
* I created a version for Doomsday 1.3a vanilla. It simply uses a slightly different events.txt file. All events are the same, no changes were made. There are now two downloads, one for DD13a and one for Arma11. Get the proper version for your current game.
V0.9.1b
* Fixed the cold war gets hot events. Now they will only fire after the Potsdam events. Further tweaked the time it takes to fire while keeping it random. Now it will likely take months for any side to declare war, giving you some time to prepare. Of course it can still happen the next day after the Potsdam conference events.
* All relevant events in hoi2.txt and bulgaria.txt have been replicated in my MOD file. A new event will put the redundant events in hoi2.txt, and other original event files, inactive. This will ensure that all original files except events.txt will remain unchanged after installing this mod. This should make it friendlier to be used alongside other mods. Hoi2.txt and bulgaria.txt are no longer included in the zip file.
