Modders! Unite for a 1942 December Scenario

[III.Selim]

Why 1942 December?

Because:
- There's no scenario between 1941 and 1944.
- 1942 december is a time where both Japan and German start losing the war (Stalingrad, Midway)
- Although Axis start losing, actually they're still powerful for an assault (Kursk)
- It's challenging for both sides (axis or allies). Where it's not challenging for certain sides in 1941 and 1944 scenarios.
- Stalingrad surrounded by red army, which is cool
- USA has landed on morocco, and here comes two fronts for the axis powers on africa.
- Vichy france is gone at last o
- Axis has still hopes (no hopes in 1944 scenario)
- Mussolini is upset
- In the balance outset

Well, why not.
Here's a scenario icon, put it in the scenario/data folder.

I like the idea maybe something for AoD2?

PS: I think there was a 1942 Winter scenario some time ago in the HoI2 modding forum.

There are some issues with that mod:
- Germany is totally OP
- Nat.China is too strong - you can beat Japan in like five month
- Vichy France exists in Frence Guyana for some reason
- only optimised vor DD, not Arma

What would be the exact start date?
I can supply Hungarian OOB and ministers if needed.

Good luck with this mod! I always thought a 1942 start date (or even 1943, but 1942 is better because it is still more even) is much more interesting than a 1941.

Best wishes and I will be following this mod closely!

I will follow this VERY CLOSELY.

Good news:

We have Hytzon's permission to use the 1942 mod from the link above as a base for a AoD 1942 scenario. The 1942 mod has been improved by Hytzon and was created by a guy named Duck87.


EDIT: Link works now.

Great idea, but i would suggest to make it "November 1942" scenario.
Why? Because on 19 November 1942 started operation "Uranus" so I think the startdate should be at least 1 day before. Then we could avoid defeating, later might be too late (if you are going to make it historical).
