Developer Diary | Chile

[D3vil]

Lots of great ideas, content and graphics here I especially like being able to dive into different parts of the tree by the election system - that truly sounds likey a fairly unique thing in HoI4 at least for the time being.

Given the good number of Generals we receive - I assume we are in for some real person admirals, too? Just asking, as those were neither mentioned nor shown in the DD or responses (but maybe they are just not ready yet)

Their portraits are sadly not in yet but here they are nonetheless

Thank you so much for your amazing work! Is there anyway Salvador Allende could be a democratic leader/advisor?

While he is also available to the communists as can be seen in the screenshot with him, he is also available to the democrats provided you have a left-wing president

Perhaps this is an obvious question but, there will be more states added to Chile? btw will Chiloe remain part of the state of Magallanes or the province separated from others? since its an island, is kinda weird having Chiloe "united" with other land provinces. at least give Chiloe a sea crossing....
Other question is:
Will be the nacistas able to re-claim Tacna?
Other again is, what happen with resources? for example in the 1945 oil was founded on Magallanes, will Chile be able to have oil there? ( that may be throught decisions related to resource mining )

It is perhaps a little bit difficult to see in this image but yes there are new states and crossings. Also new resources have been accounted for and added.

I don't mind the wacky paths, but I like it best when they're hidden like Anastasian Poland and Papal Italy.

Originally these (Araucania and Mapuche) were meant to be hidden, but we couldn't find a place or thing where they would fit as such without it being either obvious or strange story-wise, so in the end we chose to do it as it is now.

Get back on the topic of the dev diary please.

Im kind of dissapointed, i mean it would have been better to have added a path to becoming the NEW prussia and getting some of the german kings to take the lead in Chile. That monarchical path would be better than almost non existent mapuches, without industries (Chile had their industry focused in the center and in the north regions) and without support of any foregeign world power(not realist the mapuche path). Theres a lot of videos and info showing clearly that Chile is more german than the germans in nowadays when we talk about the military traditions.
You could add that and it would be a great content.
Also it would be a great adittion to add Peter Hansen, he was a chilean-german commander who was called by germany to fight WORLD WAR I, getting a lot of medals. He was called again in WW2 and fought in the eastern front in Kursk and then in northern italy commanding the SS italienische where he got a lot of impressive victories. He could be a great commander in game with the traits of infantry leader or mountaineer or commando. He is well known for his knowledge of the modern german war doctrine in that time. Finally, we could get this commander choosing the nacista path and making some decisions to make him stay and to get a closer relantionship with Germany (maybe getting some men or equipment in exchange of joining their faction).
Greetings.

Hansen is available to the fascists in game, just not from the start.

Can you make Miguel Serrano an advisor for MNS Chile? Make him a “Fascist Writer” or “Diplomat”

He is an advisor in game

Just a small question, if Chile goes communist elections still happen and how often?, How Can You change your leader to someone from the communist party ?

Once the focus Increase Presidential Powers has been taken, elections are disabled, However, the focus The Future of Chile which initiates the communist branch allows one to choose which out of the four communist leaders to use.

For waht I´ve seen 2 of them are Carlos Contreras labarca and Manuel Hidalgo Plaza, can We know the other 2?, perhaps Marmaduke Grove due to him leading the socialist republic of Chile and the one that allows you to go communist or is there someone else?

I left a comment earlier somewhere in the thread with it so you can find them there.
