Interbellum: 1918 - 1947

Rodrico Stak · Nov 11, 2007

I got the map to work!

But before I post any pictures of it, I'm going to do the forts of Western Europe (Western Europe will be covered by level 3 land forts until WWI ends). However, here is what needs to be done:

All countries lack OOBs. We need someone to research them and put them into the mod. Qing China will be assumed to have the same OOB as the Republic of China in 1917.
The unit stats have not yet been done. Defensiveness and toughness should be very high (50 -70 should be enough) in order to make longer battles.
Though this is a relatively minor thing, there are no graphics.
Events. We have a handful of instability events that I wrote for the Qing, and IIRC that's it.

The Qing Empire is tag U99 now. The problem was that U01 is already being used.

Also, I got this very nice EU3 style shield for Qing China:

As far as i know the Royalist rebellion was only around the Beijing area and was swiftly crushed, i don't think they would have the entire army. Perhaps tip the odds in their favour a little, so they are actually playable, but an AI Qing should go down fast.

The rebellion took place (in this timeline anyway) in 1916 (yes, I know that it historically took place in 1917), but it has to be this way, as this mod comes from Uzikbombardier's thread that asked people to vote on what a new mod should be. The ones that won were:

1. Qing Empire still exists
2. An European Union created by German Communists (this will be the main "storyline" of the mod, though there will probably be one or two secondary ones)
3. The game takes place between when the First and Second World Wars historically happened.

So basically, the Qing have to exist from the outset as China. However, you may be right about hte army. Perhaps we should have a smaller starting army as China, and actually this would make more sense gameplay-wise as it will make it much more difficult for a Human China to hope to reconquer all of the Chinese minor revolters that will appear.

I thought the mod was starting in 1917

The war could still have swung either way that year, except for the Russian empire. But there isn't really any harm in a small Qing faction arriving a year early, i suppose. Gives them time to consolidate. Perhaps have them clinging on in Inner Mongolia and the plateau the chinese communists occupy in OTL 1936?

Zhang Xun was quite old, born in the 1850s, so any ideas on who will succeed him as prime minister?

No, it does start in 1917. What I'm saying is that in this timeline the Royalist Rebellion took place one year earlier and succeeded, leading to a China (technically) united, but there will be many Chinese minor revolters that will appear in game.

Is there any download for this yet?

How about the Qing controlling the area Shanxi and Communist China control in the vanilla scenario, along with a chunk of north central china, with a Guomindang faction down in Guandong? It could be possible for the GMD to go left-wing in this scenario, since the Qing would attract some of the right wingers.

It took me a while (real life gets in the way like that

), but here is the map. There are two points of interest. Fortified Europe (almost all of those are level 3 land forts, some are higher if they had fortifications in mod 1914 (meaning that they had extra fortifications beyond trenches)):

And Qing China (currently the wrong color, with the wrong flag, and the wrong name. Togo??):

SiRanger: Can I have the tech trees you made? I'd like to start putting things together so we know what needs to be done.

Mongolia was independent from 1911. But damn this looks great! Can't wait downloading.

Right. AFAIK that was because of the 1911 revolution.

is this for dwnload yet, r will it be soon..

Scorpi · Dec 16, 2007

Looks awsome, could somebody edit the first page with some general history, like for example why Germany is sooo monster huge?

But looks really great, must say I am a bit impressed on how far you guys have made it so far. May I suggest that you guys perhaps should borrrow events from some of the many other mods out there, like the first world war mod, and the 33 and 34 mod.

Armageddon, actually (I was going to make it for both DD and Armageddon, but by the time we're finished there won't be any excuse not to (sloooowwww progress = patch 1.2

))

There's a list of what needs to be done on the first post, I can't do it all myself, so I need someone to help!

I would love to help but sadly I am not that knowledgeable on modding.

SiRanger · Dec 26, 2007

Rodrico,

After a lot of extra work the last couple of works, I'll back to modding. I can send you what I have now, but the tech components are not complete. I was planning to begin working on unit stats and then get to the tech components. I can send you the current files and then periodic updates as work progresses.

That's fine.

Well, we do need research on historical events, graphics, and suchlike, which I really don't have the time to do myself. Any help would be quite appreciated, really.

Well I think I have some things that I could help with then. The biggest thing is a book that is almost 2,000 pages long with the first third of it being the Rise of the Third Reich, it has all the current events of the time, or at least major ones, how the nationalist part of National Socialism won out and it starts a train of thought (but never finishes it) about what would have happened if the socialism part won out. One part that I like is the fact that it presents the Wiemar Republic as more of a democratic HRE then anything else and points out how that is true. So I can start giving you things on Germany during the inner war years.
