These events look great.
There could be a cold war in the NGF and SGF. I think it is entirelly possible, that they would go on a landgrab if they have radical governments.
France would probably allow this happily since they would eye each-other and not the French and both of the governments would want to have the supreme support of them.
NGF would try to eat up the Czech lands for example, while SGF would eat up Austria.
For the small German States there could be a "grand alliance event similar to the one in the 19th century. If France is at war with the Soviets, they could have a chance, to ally with each-other and declare war on France. A handful of nations would support this.
I think there was an event for communist Hungary in which they would give back lands taken by them to their fellow communist partners, if their coups are succesfull. Now that is so unlikely, it should have only a very low chance of happening.
The communist in Hungary would have a shaky position by this time and France could found a coup for them.
In 1936 there is a lesser known coup which failed in Hungary. The leader of it was Zoltán Böszörményi a former writer. He created the National Socialist Hungarian Worker's Party (Nemzeti Szocialist Magyar Munkás Párt.)
First he used the swastika than he switched to a twin scythe to show that it has roots in the peasantry.
He created his "Rohamosztag" a stormtroop version.
The greating was the "Éljen Böszörményi!" (Heil Hitler variant) and a Roman army salute.

So France could fund a coup which becomes a "demon in a bottle" for them. First they would be happy since an ideologically close nation would rise, than they would be horrified of an ultramilitaristic highly nationalist Hungarian nation as it starts to eat up its neighbours and uses the communist factory heritage to weaponize itself.
It would claim highly unrealistic borders based on shaky historical background. (Half of Astria belonged to Hungary once or twice, so they would claim that too and similar.)

I think this mod would be good to create a few interesting nations that would have otherwise utterly failed.

China could have a warlord era in this timeline too, in which it would disintegrate to a civil war. (A Spanish civil war version could happen to China in which multiple factions are fighting with foreign support.)

There are some interesting ideas, we might implement some.

Here it is another dev.diary for upcoming version of TBL mod.

Dev Diary 4
Since many bugs are reported about partition of USSR by Axis powers whole system is revised and improved, also event-chains for partition of USSR by French Empire and Republic of France are created.
If USSR is heavily defeated and lose control of major cities than event triggers for France:
1.png

Here is three outcome of partition for Kingdom of France:
2.png
3.png
4.png

Here are the cabinets of puppet-states:
5.png
Partition by French State have first two options:
6.png

And cabinets are different in some ways:
7.png
Partition by French Empire have one outcome:
8.png
9.png

With these puppet-state cabinets:
10.png
Partition by French Republic have two outcomes:
11.png
12.png
13.png

With these puppet-state cabinets:
14.png
If Ottoman Empire and Romania are allied with France then they also get some land:
15.png

If China is not allied with France then they get some of land they claim when Soviets are defeated:
16.png

If China is member of Axis then they occupy whole of Soviet Asia and set up two puppet-states:
17.png

Cabinets of Turkestan and Siberia:
18.png

If USSR lose land in west and east then month after peace events is triggered about collapse of government.
19.png

French puppet state of Russia use this opportunity to annex remains of USSR:
20.png
Note: Like in previous dev.diaries this is WiP, could be further changed/improved before release.
 
I think the government of Chinese Turkestan and Siberia should be changed a bit. For one, the Chinese history shows, that a puppet state was administered by Chinese. So at least half of their governments would be filled with Chinese "advisors". (It doesn't really matter what kind of ideology China has, it would stay the same.
The second tought is that they would balkanize Turkestan. Controlling and policing Xinjiang is a nightmare for them even otl today, so a nation twice that size would be shaky at best.
Chinese ideas where balkanization with regional governments, but not on ethnic lines. This is divide and conquer Chinese version. Basically the same as the colonial powers did in the Middle East.
They would not create Kazkhstan or even historical Khiva. They would go back to the Tang dinasty as precedence. (Sorry for the really bad English, I'm quite tired tonight.)
They would create states like Mengchi Protectorate, Yuezhy Commandery etc. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/36/Tang_Protectorates.png
Islam and Turkic heritage is a unitary force against them, so they would need to destroy or at least weaken it.
 
One more thing in China. The main local Russian population would be a problem for the Chinese, since they would be against them, they would rebel and create problems. Even the collaborators couldn't be trusted. China would look to the indigenous people as aid. (Otl Japanese tactic or the Soviet tactic in Central Asia to choose a minority and support them.)
They would fill the most important positions with Yakuts, Samoyeds etc. They would be loyal to the Chinese since the Soviets supressed them radically.

The Muscovite State should also be changed as Vlasov is not a good choice. (He wouldn't nearly have the same role as otl.)
I would like to nominate Pavel Bermondt Avalov https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavel_Bermondt-Avalov or someone similar.
He is a former warlord and opportunist for one. He was a radical far-right man, so once again he is useful.
He was a white commander, so no Soviet ties, which is also great.
The white movement even in otl remained significant in France, so why would they let a former Soviet to any role and not choose someone who actually speaks French?

Why is Armenia, Azerbaijan and the Don-Kuban Union not a Kingdom or at least a monarchy? The other ones became that. For Armenia I nominate:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Anne_of_Orléans or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henri,_Count_of_Paris_(1908–1999) I'm not sure if you already used one of them.
I could not find an ethnic Armenian noble in that time period who would fit the role.
For Azerbaijan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jafargulu_Khan_Nakhchivanski
For Don-Kuban Union Krasnov would be good, but as Pyotr I.
Sorry if I write too much, it's just my opinion, but on the other hand I think it is marvellous what you made. I'm impressed.

- Interesting, about Siberia, it is based on premise that Chinese wanted to use those leaders that was in exile in China to form Russian government, parallel to those pro-French in Moscow, to evade anti-Chinese influence from Moscow in post-war which is more likely to happen if it is under Chinese administration [Idea of Franco-Chinese Cold War].
- About balkanizing the Turkestan, I would like to see your ideas about borders. About old names and borders in region, how much they fit 1000 years later? Plus, Chinese government have new ideological view on the world than Chinese Empire because of changes done after revolution of 1911.

- About minorities, probably yes, but, on local level in areas where those minorities are more significant in numbers. In whole Siberia Russians are majority so they would have formal authority in puppet-state, of course Chinese would be "real boss" that make the decisions. About Japanese in OTL situation was different, indigenous peoples had millions in population while former masters British, didn't have any significant number.
- About Vlassov, why not, lets say he got captured by the French during the war, like in OTL.
- White movement in OTL was in refuge in France because France was their main ally in WW1. In TBL they would most likely be in exile in German Empire. Bermondt-Avalov would probably be even more germanophile and and not pro-nazi. He got arrested by nazis in OTL Germany. He could be good candidate for some puppet-government after war between Soviet Union and German Empire [and Allies].
- Princess Françoise d'Orléans sister of Henry VI would be added as queen of Finland instead of Moritz I, I planned but missed to do that. Also I will change picture of Isabelle it incorrectly shows mother instead of daughter.
- Anne of d'Orleans is wife of Amedeo of Aosta which rules Italian East Africa, question is would she goes to Eastern Europe separately.
- Henry VI becomes king of France in February of 1941 so he is off for that idea.
- About Armenia, Azerbeijan and Don-Kuban as kingdoms it's very far-fetched. even Germans in late stages of WW1 didn't attempted that, and in Finland and Baltic they did tried.
The Chinese would also balkanize Japan if the conquer it. They would chop it up and reintroduce the clan system to weaken them and make them more controllable (Chinese version of otl Japanese tactic.)
The nations would be:
Shimazu Domain https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shimazu_Tadashige
Ainu Republic (the same tactic as they would use in Siberia)
Kobakayava Domain https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/小早川元治
And a few others.
Partition of Japan is currently not a priority of work, we will consider this when the time comes.

Great work, as usual. Nesic, you can always take my events for Ottomans from PWV. I'm know that they were created for 1920s era, but they're fictional and you can always change date for your scenario. I'm will never ask for credits.

Thanks, why not, if we find something useful.

Hey @Ericafaq I don't want to bother you but if I have some questions regarding our AI (that I'm rebuilding for the v0.7) can I contact you? I know you've made miracles with the AIs of the different belligerents in your Russian CW and honestly I could really use a hand right now.

Dev Diary 5
After the recent dev.diary on new events for Ottoman Empire I got feedback from rest of the dev.team with idea that radical conservatives would not give up so easily in case secularisation process starts in Turkish Empire (in event-chain about Mustafa Kemal becoming Grand Vizier).
So here are new additional events that are expanding such situation:
Couple of days after secularisation reforms are implemented this event fires:
0.png

If you chose 1st outcome (and conspirators are arrested), crisis is resolved and goes without bigger problems.
Radical pan-turanist faction forms a new government:
1a.png

Arab provinces are reincorporated into the Empire, although cores are lost due to Arab disapproval of such actions:
1b.png

1c.png
Empire is abolished, republic is proclaimed:
2a.png

2b.png

Iraq see the opportunity and unite with Sultanate of Levant:
2c.png
Padishah is replaced with his heir:
3a.png

Arab provinces are reincorporated into the Empire:
3b.png

Arabs start revolts because of such action and Kurds proclaim independence:
3c.png
Caliphate is abolished which jeopadize relationship with Muslim countries:
4a.png

And Iraq see opportunity to annex Sultanate of Levant due to their disapproval of Turkish decision:
4b.png

Note: Like in previous dev.diaries this is WiP, could be further changed/improved before release.
 
Would the formation of Hashemite Arabia eventually lead to a Hashemite-Saudi conflict?
Yeah, we have plans about that to happen after WW2, when British reduce control over Hashemite Arabia, Saudis could see that as opportunity to attack.

Awesome work as always guys :D

Couple of questions, does Ataturk still die around the same time as in OTL? and if so will his successor be clearly decided? Considering that such succession wasn't completely clear cut in OTL even after his being in power for almost 20 years I'd imagine it would be even more difficult having not been in power very long before dying (I'm assuming)
 
Once again, completely awesome! I meant to comment yesterday, but we were blessed with another DD in the meantime! Looove the amount of options we're getting, and how our ideology affects even the little things. Who's doing flags for you by the way? They're all really nice.
