The fragmentation/decolonization game rules were added by me on a whim because I thought they'd be cool to have. This was an oversight and shouldn't be hard to fix. However, it will not make it in for release.

Isn't whole decolonization rule making game kinda unbalanced in favour of Axis? Germany loses nothing, Italy is Italy anyway, Japan loses Korea, and that's all.

These rules are not balanced in the slightest, and break all manner of focus trees. There is no African front, the Japanese/Chinese war will require naval invasions (good luck to that, Japan), UK loses all its dominions, etc etc. These are not intended for even remotely a normal game - they're there for people who want to have a completely different experience for a change, or perhaps even play one of the new releasable tags.

I mean, at this case other states could be divided too, related to their separatism - Germany, USA, a bit of Italy. I mean, it is kind of interesting game rule, but without new wargoals, related to this states, or any reasonable interaction, what's the point?

Except that there have been no new tags added to any of these countries, so there's nothing to release.

Are you planning to somehow alter passivness of AI in the future? I'm sure, I've already seen some states, declaring on other states simply because wargoals with some territories were owned by them. Germany, attacking USSR which in it's turn has just annexed Czechoslovakia, and so, Sudetenland, is just one of them. So, it theory AI is able to do something not only if it has received wargoal for some tag.

First of all this is off-topic for this thread. Secondly, I don't necessarily see anything wrong with countries declaring war on other countries who took the states they get wargoals on.

Sorry, finishing on that one.

It is not bad, quite the contrary - it is great that AI adapts (or, well, pretends to adapt).

Ah! Sorry I misunderstood :) Well the Dutch focus tree has a dynamic wargoal like that. It's something I like doing, but going back to fix all the older stuff is quite a lot of work. If we find the time, sure, I'd like to change some of them :) But then, there's a lot of stuff I'd love to do if there were time ^^
