Out with the Old, In with the New

[Chicken]

I have become somewhat bored with the standard game, so i have been experimenting with some countries that I have found various ways to liberate such as the Ukraine, Siberia, India, etc... Now i have become curious to the point that i want to play Russia (Not the Soviets) from start to finish in the '36 scenario.

So...

Is there a way to simply replace the Soviets with the Russians? Or can i make an event that does so?

Thx for any help you can give

There is not really a simple way. A fiar bit of modding would be required.

And you may not like Russia, if you like playing USSR. Russia shouldnt have anywhere near as much industry and would be alot weaker.

There is an 'All the Russias' mod and also my mod has russia in it.

I ask this because i tried to do it a different way, where i started as Republican spain and couped the soviets (cheating money, money, money, acceptall). It turned to Russia. That would be cool, but i get this weird bug where I can't research a few technologies including Basic Machine Tools because the tech teams which the Soviets were using disappeared after the coup. Therefore, i can't cancel the techs either, because the tech teams do not exist as Russia. They are that hilited yellow "Researching..." tint instead of green or blue, but they are not actually being researched.

Any other suggestions for how to write an event, or else fix this issue?
