forming the HRE

[vyshan]

Paradox,

I am curious are you really serious about being able to reform the HRE in the ww2 era?

sincerely,

~herkles~

the PDX stream. this will be something in waking the tiger. apparently communist were too weak in Germany during this time, but holy romanism was strong within the military to reform the HRE!

 

[Captured Joe]

It's from the Stream, for crying out loud.

PLEASE tell me this is just an incredibly stupid joke! PLEASE don't be serious about this PDX!

 

[Rommel 459]

Ah.. not watching the stream atm as I'm trying to lose enough wakefulness to sleep.. its not working yet. Probably because I woke up reading the Dev diary.
Sorry for my confusion.

YESSSSS! I wonder if A-H will get a similar decision.

 

[EltharionDrax]

Hahahaa!

Comedy.

Re-forming Austro-Hungary already was TOO MUCH! Now they're gonna do the same thing with Germany!

I think, before anybody gets too aggravated, that we should all calm down and remember two things. One: Hearts of Iron IV is more-or-less a sandbox game at this point, it's about trying every possibility and having fun. And two: nobody is going to put a gun to your head and FORCE you create any silly (and let's be honest, it IS silly) nations like the Holy Roman Empire. I welcome any new possibilities to make the game fun and increase its longevity - including allowing players to resurrect long-dead empires.

Because let's be real... it WOULD be fun to lead a 20th century HRE through World War II...

It was intended as a sort-of easter-egg decision under some very unusual circumstances that a player would have to work towards for a long time. It wasn't even supposed to be visible unless those conditions were met. Very much WIP.

Good news

That's a total non-sense... I'm ok with ahistorical stuff but reforming Roman Empire or HRE in the 20th century is just silly... Those are medieval or antiquity structures... even Qing makes no sense.. I would clearly not understand the choice to implement those...

As historical players we regularly read here that we should lean on mods to have a more historical/scripted experience, well I think the players who like such ahistoricity should as well have to lean on mods to choose such decisions, and not vanilla...

Or I don't know, you enable those kinds of decision for a "random game" mode or whatever.

Reform byzantium when? (just to see if crushed obviously....)

Good to hear.

Honestly, certain things like a complete nation reshaping should take quite a bit of time and the whole HoI4 is way too short for that.

Now that you've said that, though, I'm no longer opposed to other fantasies of the same sort - like Russia revival

 

[Lordban]

Note that in history, there was a forbidden-return zone in France comprising, essentially, old HRE territories marked for repopulation by Germans, well beyond the annexed Alsace-Moselle.

Are there any other potential easter eggs that may be in the works?

To bad it got revealed too soon. But hey, that's what you get for using hot code. Might it be smarter to have the version used on stream checked in advance, or just have the streamers not go to those kinds of places where you aren't sure if things are working right.

This is extremely WIP, and has not been touched since very early in the development process of this DLC. It will receive quite big changes toitsrequirements (HRE was, as stated above, meant as an easter egg), and likely also to its effects.
