Custom Factions

[Denkt]

Maybe they wanted to launch an Invasion on Germany and take it for themself.

Why not "The New World order"

That is it I demand a mod in which my Head of State is Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall is my armaments minister and Kevin Nash is Chief of Staff.

What about Macho Man Randy Savage?

Custom Factions... its nice! Why not "The New World order" or "The neutral Block" or "UN" or "NATO" or... guys you have to see this neverending potential for Modern warfare mods, Cold war mods, continue the game from 1936 till 2015 and always new factions...

I really love it and sure i am excited about this feature.. keep it up @podcat

I don't see how that's needed for mods, when you can just rename axis, allies and commies in localisation :s
Good idea tho

yeah.. but you cant change it ingame via event or so (in HoI 3) so this way you will playfrom 36 till 2014 and start "New" Factions every couple of Years, whatever

However it's still nice to have the functionality as it means it's much more dynamic to work with and requires less work.

It also allows for there to be more then 3 factions which especially in alternative timelines would be awesome.

Just a simple example. An alien invasion during WW2 mod that of-course like the classics has them land in America would be fun as it changes the whole balance of the world and adds in a new foe. The aliens would ofcourse need their own factions while the historical once should still exist as well because after all it's still the same world.

Simple dumb idea but already shows how good it is to have an 'open functionality' to this stuff

General Question about Factions. Can you switch between them? For example join the Axis and get quite large with them. After a while betray them and create a own custom faction?

Outside of Italy Bulgaria and Romania I don't think this happened, and all of those were due to occupation/impending doom.

It would be a good function for them though. And I'd very much like to see a system where you can attempt to scuttle out of a losing faction, and there's a chance that they can occupy your country instead (Hungary comes to mind here) before it's complete, if they detect you.
