The Global Wars (Mod)

[unmerged(60182)]

Sounds rather unlikely that Sweden would succumb under Finland. maybe add a dissent ?

Names:

Scandinavian Union
Social Republic Of Scandinavian

Social Republic Of Scandinavia is grammatically correct.

What about the the Union of Nordic Comrades (silly, I know)

The Union of Socialist Scandinavian States

The Revolutionary Nordic Union

 

[Ostheim]

Oh yes will this be for DD or normal HoI2?

DD / Armageddon -- Not sure about compatibility yet.

 

[Ericus1]

Scandanavian Union.


What kind of balance are you going for between the various countries, and in the same vein are you editing provincial assest? I only ask becuase as you've drawn the map if you aren't changing IC and resource levels some nations are going to be total economic powerhouses and others will only have one or two tech teams or being in extremely weak tactical situations.

For instance, your Indochina, sub-Saharan Africa, and Greater Australia will all have less than 40 IC. India and the greater Mexico are both very vunerable to three or four way attacks, and both will be significantly weaker than all their surrounding neighbors individually, let alone combined.

Perhaps a table showing what you intend the total resource, IC, and MP levels for each nation would be helpful. Rough starting military levels and units would also be helpful too. Techs are one thing, but some nations are in very precarious strategic and tactical situations that, without realitively large military assest compared to their neighbors, would probably be exploited from the onset of the game.

You should make one more country Byzantine Empire. It should get Greece, Bulgaria and west coast of Turkey with capital in Istanbul.

What do you think?

 

[Ericus1]

What do you think?

The only problem is you would be creating a 30 IC weakling surrounded by three major powers at the expense of the currently weakest nation in Europe. You would also take Italy from being on par with it's neighbors to being a minor compared to Germany, Spain/France, greater Poland, and the Middle East country.

A better solution if you wanted to put Byzantium in the game would be to replace the Middle East country with it, add Greece and Bulgaria, shift their eastern provinces to India (Persia, Khazak/Afganistan), and transfer some of the German and Spance provinces to Italy. Say something along the lines of a Byz that turned back and eventually destroyed the emergence of Islam and thus retained the majority of the Eastern Empire, while the lack of a Islamic force invading India led to unified Hindu nation that expanded.

 

[Ostheim]

@Užičkibombarder: I won't be including the Byzantines particularly because the 'New Roman Imperium' isn't what survived from the ancient Roman empire, but is a newer incarnation.

@Ericus1: The scenario uses modified country .csv files from Armageddon which may or may not have modified provinces from the GC. Things have been unbalanced from Armageddon as the highest base IC is 283 while the lowest is 103. Vietsiam (Indochina) actually has 197 base IC, Africa has 217, and Victoria (Australia) has 200 (haven't changed her territory from Armageddon)

I am considering adding Russia into the mix again to make things more interesting in eastern Europe. Below is a map with proposed border changes for various countries. The white border marks what territory this Czarist Russia would have. Any input is appreciated.

 

[Nietzsche]

Umm...am I the only one that has noticed that the proposed "Czarist Russia" would occupy less of *actual* Russia than either Scandinavia or Poland hold individually?

 

[Ostheim]

That is because of the Polish-Russian war in the alternate history in which Russia is defeated when Poland makes a deal with communist Finland. However the borders could change depending on IC.

 

[unmerged(74720)]

^^^agreed

plus the way it is set up now looks like you could have a three way battle over the caucus.

 

[Ostheim]

Okay, I revised the border changes, see the post above.

 

[Ostheim]

Once again I've changed governments/ideologies. I have changed 'Extreme Reactionary' back to National Socialism because I figure the term has been used enough by others than the NSDAP that it is appropriate even in alternative history. Stalinism is different however and I need help with it, as there seems to be no term or reference beyond Stalin's USSR for that kind of extreme left totalitarianism.

National Socialist
Fascist
Nationalist Autocrat
Social Conservative
Market Liberal
Social Liberal
Social Democrat
Radical Socialist
Communist
Stalinist???

 

[Ericus1]

What's wrong with Stalinist then? If the only example in history is Russia under Stalin, Stalinist would be a fairly apt description. It makes it very clear exactly what kind of socio-political environment you're trying to describe.

Unless you want to go with "Totalitarian Socialist", which doesn't roll off the tounge as easily as "Stalinist" would.

Flag for Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth

Hello.
I see there's some new ideas in thread
Anyway, if you would like to create PLU Commonwealth there's some flags to consider in:

http://xie.dyndns.org/~flagdir/viewFlags.php?continent=5&game=3&viewPage=17

When Poland conquered Russia use version called:
Poland-Lithuania-Ruthenia
When PLU Commonwealth didn't conquer Russia but part of it are Poland, Lithuania, Ukraina:
make it compatible with Ukrainian symbols:
http://xie.dyndns.org/~flagdir/viewFlags.php?continent=5&game=3&viewPage=24

I've seen you are really skilled flag maker

 

[unmerged(61606)]

any news?

 

[Ostheim]

Some delays but I have updates. I will post some new stuff soon.

yay!

 

[Miihkali]

Can stalinist be Bolshevist/Bolshevik?

 

[unmerged(61606)]

Can stalinist be Bolshevist/Bolshevik?

yeah, that would probably be better.

 

[Ostheim]

Once I finish adjusting the starting military I will probably start beta testing. I'll need some people to help me and give feedback so I can improve and finish the mod.
