New DEV diary for a new thread

Pacific Theatre

As I'm promised in previous thread,follow requests of the users,today I'm will show you some of results of my works with Pacific Theatre.What can I say about Pacific war?Player will have a time before a summer of 1965.Im already added Surrender events for USA,Eurasian Union.In case of fail will signed Peace Treaty of Ottawa (Partition of the Asia)

At first I'm want to say that Eurasian Union and USA will have an exclusive opportunities to create loyal countries on a captured territories.As I'm said in a previous thread USSR will have own exclusive Pro-Soviet States.In reality of this mod Soviet Union launched invasion to Asia during Korean War.Those pro-Soviet states will have an weak economy and minimum of national cores,simulation of resistance against Soviets.As you can understand Asians will never prise Soviets as liberators.In a other words,Its a Soviet analogue of German RKs.Every country has own individual tag,tech teams and government.

Here you can see information about Pro-Soviet States in a post-war Asia

Best wishes for your newborn mod!

I'm want to say the same for a your WIF III.Thanks a lot for a kind words.I'm always glad to read your diaries
 
This looks epic and I can't wait to play.

Nikita, you are definitely my favorite modder for DH. I've also enjoyed seeing your English improve over the past couple of years.

Outstanding work, and what an interesting scenario you have created! I will be watching this thread closely.

Wonderful ! Good luck Nikita, you're one of the best modder of our community !

Thanks a lot for a kind words!Such statements charging me to do more and more.

Very nice, definitely was worth the wait to see this diary. In the case of complete soviet victory will the puppets they create always be weak states?

In a case of Total Domination of Communism in Asia,Socialist Japan,Socialist Republic of Zhili,Socialist Republic of Anhui and Socialist India will have a opportunity to build its own independent model of Communism,or break Socialist chains and build-up its own policy
Moreover,Eurasian Union will have a chance to attack pro-German Asian states,Malaya and Indonesia.
 
Good job and Good luck Ericafaq, good to see another ambitious mod.
I have one question (For now): How does the USSR-defeated in WW2 could conquer very large and very much populated part of Asia. I think that after defeat from Nazi Germany when USSR lose it's most populated and developed areas it could only become rump state and could not have chanse to conquer the most populated area of the world (imagine how much soldiers and civilians Soviets lose in case they are defeated by Germany). I think about this as unrealistic even for Alt.History.

Well,its a part of AAR "Last legs of Democracy".Defeated USSR signed military alliance with North Korea during Korean war of 1950s and launched invasion to allies subjects in a Asia (South Korea,China,British Raj,French Indochine).Story about Soviet invasion to Asia is a part of AAR,you can read it here

Click

This AAR is a storyline for this mod

NOTE

Due weak engine of Arsenal of Democracy AAR has a thousands of the bugs like a United and independent Nationalist Russia under Monarchy rule,German Ukraine without Reichkomissariats,Communist Finland when USSR already defeated,United and independent Netherlands,Croatia without access to the sea and etc.
All of these bugs are fixed in this mod,except Communist Finland,because community asked me to let them be

Two important moments.

First-An next diary will about situation in Europe and African uprisings against colonial rule of Italy,Portugal,France,Sud Afrika

Second-Another changes between our reality and Thunder In The Sky world

1-Japan is semi-independent ally of USA like a post-war FRG or Italy.Due Soviet threat and situation in a Asia and Europe Japan does not have any serious military limits.Moreover,Player/AI will have a chance to build Japanese Nuclear Programm

2-Cuban Revolution never had chance to be realized due weak influence of Socialism and thanks to the location of NATO bases on the territory of the country.The authorities in a Cuba are followers of F.Batista.

3-Due defeat in the WWII and German Order on the East Novoslavia(Nationalist Russia) and Eurasian Union have a very limited manpower.In a game you will have events about improvement of demographic situation for a both Russia's

4-Anvar Sadat (Leader of the Egypt) is active follower of the Pan-Arabism ideas.In a game you will have opportunity to build United Arabian Republics by diplomacy or by force.Egypt-in center of Pan-Arabist ideas


5-Chechen conflict is also realized in a game.But between Dudaev's Checnya and Don-Kuban Republic.Conflict will have a place in a middle of 80s

6-Most of Modern Famous leaders like a Bill Clinton,Saddam Hussein,Tony Blair,Gerhard Schroder,B.Yeltsin,Leonid Kravchuk,Leonid Kuchma,Jacques Chirac,Marin Le Pean,Hafez-Al-Assad,Franjo Tudjman,Nelson Mandela and etc will realized in a game

I-.As Fascist Germany (Italian model of Fascism) you will have opportunity to slowly integrate some of RKs or re-organaize them as national states,Ukraine,Poland,Estonia,Latvia,Lithuania and etc,if you don't want to waste your resourses and manpower (Simulation of colonization)
As SS Germany you will have opportunity to integrate RKs much faster,or let them stay without any changes.Process of integration will a more expensive.
As "Democratic" Germany you will forced to re-organaize as national states.They will remain as your allies

II-Of course.Argentina and some of other South American states like a Peru or Colombia will a very interesting choice for a world conquest.But for a first version I'm give priority to Argentine (Events,Ministers,Leaders,TT teams)

III-France will have opportunity to restore monarchy,go on with National-Socialist path or restore Democractic French Republic(France before a summer of 1940)

Great work. I really looking forward to try this amazing mod. To tell you the truth this one and Peace without Victory one of the most anticipated mods that I am waiting for. I am really looking forward to see what they will be look like in full release :)
I have a few questions though.
I understand that war between reformed USSR and USA in Asia is implemented. but what about ww 3? For exmaple if Germany invades USA or USSR and defeats them is there any kind of victory events? Or vice versa say USA manage to launch a full-scale invasion in Europe and defeat Germans will I see events about long awaited liberation of Europe? What about Eurorasian Union, say it will take back it former lands and crush germans. Will I see rise of the communism in Europe? I understand that probably none of this is implemented yet but I need to know exactly what to expect in case of full scale world war 3.
Once again thx for the great work you are doing.
