I don't think they are interested in adding new content.
I need some suggestions from you guys; I was watching a hands-off game today and Hitler died in 1946. I wrote two events for the death a long time ago and am interested in making it... well, more interesting. The events are already solid, but I think they could be even cooler.
Here they are for you to reference:

When Hitler's death finally arrived, the SS took control, prolonging the war indefinitely and terrorizing the people still under Germany's grasp."

}As it is now, the SS takes over if Reinhard Heydrich escapes assassination (only possible if the UK is defeated before he was historically killed). The assassination event sleeps the SS takeover event. I want to tweak that a bit on my end to make it less dependent on the assassination event (but it will still only happen if he survives).
I was wondering what a good power struggle might look like and what effect that struggle might have on the cabinet/Germany?
The big contenders, to me, seem to be Goebbels, Himmler, Bormann, and Goring. What are some possible combinations of cabinets? Currently you can see that Himmler becomes HOS and Goring as HOG. I could easily envision something like Goring as HOS and Goebbels as HOG, though. So, input please!
Paradox nicked some of SMEP ideas, stuck them in (and managed to mess some of them up) and then left out others. Probably because they ARE good events!
For a long time I've wanted to create an event chain where the UK/US agree to a conditional surrender with Germany when Germany is smashing the Soviets but losing to the Western Allies. So I've written it up now and it works. Question is, what kind of repercussions should this have? Specifically, clearly, Hitler would have to be gone. What kind of cabinet should be put in place? For the time being I'm using the "Hitler Assassinated" cabinet.
Later the cabinet can be replaced with this event:

hi,
Beck should definately be HoS
the rest is here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20_July_plot#Planned_government
Hi Atruejedi,
In my opinion a dictator as concentrates a lot of power on its hands is much more at risk than a democratic head of state of a coup, a plot, etc. The probability of that is much higher when things go wrong. In other terms the probability that Hitler dies because an illness should be the same for all leaders in the game but the probability that Hitler dies because a plot should depend on the success of war (war score?).
The way in which a dictator keeps the dissent low is by terror, purge, intelligence, etc. I would say that Stalin sorted out the dissent much in advance then Hitler (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Purge). The cost of that is in terms of leadership and this can be better modded in HOI3.
Back to the point my proposal is to consider some elements like the war score, the infrastructural damage of some important provinces, etc. as key indicators of the war's performance and then this should trigger a coup/revolt in a occupied country (like Bohemia & Moravia, India, Syria, etc.) or in the "main" country,.
On the other end, if the coup fails, the repression should keep things quiet for some time (a would suggest at least 3 years) and should cost something in terms of research and combat performances.
Arab's nationalism
Hi to everybody. I'm opening this thread to share with you what I studied some time ago: Arab's were unhappy to be ruled by UK and, moreover, they were unhappy because Jews settled in Palestina. For both reason they thought that Axis would be their right allied. I have started to mod some insurrections/coup d'etat depending on the success that Axis had in Africa and Middle East. For example Saudi Arabia has a small probability to adhere to Axis if the Egypt is conquered by it. This probability is increasing dramatically if all the region around Saudi Arabia is under the Axis control and if the countrys (Egypt, Jordania, Iraq) exist and are allied with Germany.
The logic behind is that with the creation of Arabian nations (like Egypt, Jordania, or even Palestina) the Arabian nationalism is gaining grip in all Arab countries. This implies, for example, that a country like Saudi Arabia is "obliged" to take side. Another example is Iraq. From the historical point of view there really happened a coup d'etat. The probability of that should increase (as above) depending on the Axis' success. There is already an event that models it but I think that it should be amended.
Please let me know if you are interested in the code I have written.
PS
Please find below a disccussion I had on TRP about the matter:
http://www.totalrealismproject.com/viewtopic.php?p=24698#24698
Since then I have made some more changes at the code.

annexing countries
For your happiness this should be my last input today on this thread.
In my opinion when a country is annexed some leaderships should be inherited. In game's terms this could be simulated in several ways what I have done is to increase the research's speed. and added the tech teams to the annexing country.
Please let me know your thoughts about.

Hi Cardus.
Have you played SMEP? I feel like you are new to it and need to give it a try... I will try to address all of your points below in an organized fashion.
About your first post regarding attempts on Hitler's life: Your suggestions are too difficult to model in the game. As it is now, if Germany is on the brink of defeat, the Hitler assassination events will fire. The chances are greater that the attempt FAILS but I have seen it successful too, which results in a new government with Ludwig Beck and Carl Friedrich Goerdeler in charge. An event fires later to choose your own government (which you can see above).
Regarding province shifts: Italy already gets Grenoble, Nice (both when Vichy is created if Germany agrees), Corsica (when Tunisia is occupied), and Malta (when the UK is defeated). Furthermore, Spain is awarded with Gibraltar if they fight for the Axis and actually helped win the war.
Regarding Arab nationalism: Germany pressures Saudi Arabia into joining the Axis if Germany controls the region north of Saudi Arabia (Palestine, Sinai, Kuwait).
Additionally, If Italy or Germany approach Egypt when at war with her and the UK, Egypt will revolt and join the Axis (but usually is annexed by the UK fairly quickly).
About your last post regarding leadership and techteams: the engine already has a setting to allow the player to choose to inherit techteams.
Looking forward to seeing what you think about SMEP after you play it!

Regarding province shifts: Italy already gets Grenoble, Nice (both when Vichy is created if Germany agrees), Corsica (when Tunisia is occupied), and Malta (when the UK is defeated). Furthermore, Spain is awarded with Gibraltar if they fight for the Axis and actually helped win the war.
Regarding Arab nationalism: Germany pressures Saudi Arabia into joining the Axis if Germany controls the region north of Saudi Arabia (Palestine, Sinai, Kuwait).
Additionally, If Italy or Germany approach Egypt when at war with her and the UK, Egypt will revolt and join the Axis (but usually is annexed by the UK fairly quickly).
About your last post regarding leadership and techteams: the engine already has a setting to allow the player to choose to inherit techteams.
Looking forward to seeing what you think about SMEP after you play it!
Not yet but I will make a try asap to make you happy
How do you define the brink of defeat?
I agree that the historical outcome is Grenoble and Nice but (if I'm not wrong) Italy asked for Tunisia and Corsica as well. What would have been in your opinion the outcome if Italy performed better? What would have been in your opinion if Mussolini had managed to convince Hitler?
Anyway Tunisia should be occupied independently by USA
Regarding Malta if the Axis manages to take it over from UK (as I tried to mod) I guess that it should go to Italy.
Ok. What about Palestine? Syria? Iraq?
This in my opinion should be changed. I cannot see any chance of revolt before Axis next to Alexandria or Cairo.
Which engine? which option? could you please let me know? One more point: let say that a country with only one tech team rated 3 annex a country with a teach team rated 5. The inheriting option you mentioned fits with the history. But what about a country with a teach team rated 9 when annex country with a teach team rated 5. No changes? A tech team is not only a guy, I would expect that more engineers, scientists, laboratories, etc. should improve the research. Do you think I'm wrong?
Looking forward to seeing what you think about SMEP after you play it!
I will let you know, in the meanwhile I thank you for your work.

How do you define the brink of defeat?
Germany has to have been invaded by the Allies for the event to have a chance to fire OR has to have a large amount (15% if I recall) of dissent.
Tunisia and Corsica remain in Vichy control until Italy begins to lose most of Libya to the British. Once this happens, Italy occupies Tunisia and Corsica. Additionally, if the Axis is victorious, Italy is rewarded with Tunisia and Corsica.
Once the Axis loses North Africa, the USA occupies Tunisia and Algeria as a launching point for an invasion of Europe.
It does, if the Axis win the war.
Palestine has a revolt in 1936.
Iraq has a rebellion in 1941 during the war.
Syria and Lebanon have to be invaded by the UK after the Iraqi rebellion is quelled.
I invite you to check my event files and see the conditions for yourself
That is how it works. Egypt will not rebel until Cairo is threatened.
It would be impossible to code all of these changes within the Hearts of Iron II gaming engine. As it is now, Armageddon has an option to inherit tech teams of nations you annex. So if Germany were to annex the United States, Germany could use Robert Oppenheimer to research nuclear reactors, for example.
Thank you
Also, there are some CCIP events that do something similar. If either the Nationalists or the Communists unify China, they'll get some boosted techteams in place of their old ones--not Germany or US level, but respectable.Atruejedi said:
Malta should switch once is lost by UK. What's the point doing that by a peace treaty?
It should insurrect when Axis is close to Jerusalem
Yes and I personally modded the Axis help to it Are you interested on it?
Yes and I personally modded the Axis intervention. Are you interested on it?
I play ARMA but I'm not aware of this option. Regarding the difficulty/impossibility my way to deal with that problem is just by increasing the speed of research.
PS
Do you have this:

Trust me. It works very well how it is now
Eh. Maybe someday. Not very high on my priority list right now. Sorry.
If it's historic, but I don't believe it is.
Once again, if it's historic.
Check your options when you start a new game.
Yes, I have capital-moving events post-war. Go play SMEP
Yes, and thanks to CCIP SMEP has these events. But it's a very special case because of the situation in China. I don't plan on expanding it to any nations.
Yeah, I mean what are the other major countries? France, Japan, Germany, the UK, the US, and the USSR? Well, except for France and the USSR, they've got GREAT techteams already, the USSR doesn't need great techteams (and besides, theirs are decent), and France is...well...France.Atruejedi said:

I'm sorry as well
It is please see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Iraqi_War#Axis_intervention
Moreover from here http://books.google.com/books?id=LP...esult&ct=result&resnum=2#v=onepage&q=&f=false "I have decided to push the development of operations in the Middle Eas through the medium of going to the support of Iraq" (Hitler, May, 1941)
It is please see here http://books.google.com/books?id=Ws...esult&ct=result&resnum=2#v=onepage&q=&f=false and from here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syria-Lebanon_Campaign you can see that: In May 1941, Admiral François Darlan signed an agreement with the Germans known as the "Paris Protocols." Darlan signed on behalf of Vichy France and the agreement granted the Germans access to military facilities in Syria.[13] Though the protocols were never ratified, Charles Huntziger, the Vichy Minister of War, sent orders to Henri Dentz, the High Commissioner for the Levant. In accordance with these orders, aircraft of the German Air Force (Luftwaffe) and the Italian Royal Air Force (Regia Aeronautica) were allowed to refuel in Syria....
Have you modded the military intervention in Iran as well?

Well, what if the Axis captures Malta but the UK subsequently wins the war? Obviously in that case, Malta shouldn't be granted to Italy. The Axis can use Malta just fine after capturing it--they don't need to annex it yet. Besides, in the one test game I've done, Germany and friends kicked Allied a** just fine by 1943--it had devolved into USA and Canada versus everybody (except the USSR). Ofc, that one was (I hope) highly atypical--the Poles gave up Danzig! The Czechs didn't surrender the Sudetenland! Crazy! :rofl:Cardus said:I believe you but I don't agree
