If India is getting re-done...Time to get ready to play Bhartyia Commune (No idea if I spelled that right)

Oh my. Maybe Princely Federation will be fun to play now!
Ever since HOI2 KR they've been a bit bland, sadly...

All three major "unifier" countries, Delhi, Bhartiya and the Princes are going to be completely changed. Delhi and the PF in particular have had their ministers, techteams and leader files completely changed. So goes for the Bengalis as well, however, their minister file has been a tad more developed in earlier KR versions. Then we have the other surrounding states and entities that either appeared or gained something from the 1926 civil war. Afghanistan, Burma, Chennai and Nepal are also being changed - just not so thoroughly as the major Indian players.

A few more screens that's already been posted on our main forum:

Any tips for playing with Shangqing Tianguo? I've tried like 12 times and i've always lost. I'm trying to keep the "historical" path (IE, DOW via event only).
 
You won't get far if you only use events-only path. I succeeded by manually going to war with the Xibei clique before Mongolia got involved. You get some free units if you win. I wanted to go after Yunnan next, but the Qing tried to take me. I handed their asses to them, even after they'd absorbed Manchuria.
 
Well, first of all, and I have said this before, thanks for this astonishing mod. I decided last week to give a try to UoB (never did as naval combat seemed too much difficult to me) and i felt glorious defeating fleet over fleet after years of planned naval development. In 1941 i fully annexed Nat France and finally, in 1943 i landed in Stettin and rushed towards Berlin while the french soldiers smashed the rest of Germany´s forces (i was very busy trying to hold my positions and suplying my troops). The Kaiser surrendered and, oddly,,France kept Prussia and Bavaria as puppets and i just got North German Fed. However, i didnt care too much, as now I have to plan the invasion of Canada and possibly it is one of the games ive been enjoying more.

Now I´ve started a game with Canada and i have some questions. It´s more or less ending 1938, lucky i have now 5 tech slots (easy difficulty, as i wanted some breath with poor Canada, New England and Alaska Annexed), PSA is in the alliance and i control Puerto Rico and Venezuela via puppet Governments. So, my questions:

1- Ive focused in building carrier and destroyers, decent naval doctrines, a decent marine invasion corps and a small INT fleet. Am I doing it right or there is another more effective way? Ive also decided to take the risk and leave my Pacific provinces ungarrisoned.

2- I know that, if Iceland events go in some way, I can DoW Union of Britain...is it wise to do so,or it is preferably to wait for the Great War? I think theay can be weaker now, but I´m not sure.

3- If I manage to win the war against Britain,what happens? I searched the forums and understood that UK gets libberated (not puppet but a free nation) and gets most of the tech teams and leaders (also the navy?). I suppose then u can keep playing with a weaker canada or reload with a strong and new Uk, is not it?

I did this and the events gave me the boost of divisions i needed to win. If not for Russian and Japanese intervention i'd have unified China :(

I've just finished the China's unification with a german intervention (alliance) fot the quing who have annexed Fengtien before. The boost of militia division helped me a lot. I've founded the Tian Empire and I prepare a campain against Burma, Siam and Vietnam, maybe Nepal and Buthan. But Russia is in the Entente and Germany won the war againt Commune of France (and gives France to Petain ^^), Then I cannot attack them or ally... (sry for my english...)
 
I know you guys are working on India at the moment, but I need to ask about the AUS again. The Air Force seems fine, but the Army and Navy (especially the Navy) seriously lack in leaders. Could something be done about it? Maybe gaining certain American Generals and Admirals after the 2nd ACW would suffice. Some right-wingers like Parker Sage and Kenneth Althaus can be chosen for ministers as the AUS, so they could be added to the Army too.
 
I can't get the mod to run because of the minister files. It says they have unknown loyalty and when it's finished with the Afghan ministers it tells me their file is corrupt. I went in and the ministers have no end dates! What gives?
 
Germany is a global power, and with nuclear weapons a superpower. As stated earlier, Germany has many allies, colonial armies and puppets to draw manpower from and is technologically and numerically superior in every way to France. France beating Germany is very rare, but that is the point, France doesn't have the Russian manpower like in OTL, despite being more modernized in comparison and doesn't have an armoured core to draw from compared to the Germans.

Clever French players can win, albeit only when the dice rolls its way, like Britain (finally) sending in its troops, Italy being unified, a unified Red Spain, Soviets and CSA jump in. Though it doesn't need them all to win.

Union of Britain AI is somewhat being looked at, I've had a go in modifying it but its been shelved due to RL constraints, but in the game it is NOT a land power. It does not have colonial assets like in OTL or dominions to call on. It is, a major, a lonely major, but a major in naval and air assets. UoB is not meant to invade other nation in Europe with great effectiveness, its naval and air powerhouse. It's job is to strangle Germany and keep her navy in check.

France is a nation that is stuck between what the hell its supposed to do, but tries to go down the land power route to reclaim dominance, but is strangled by lack of colonial allies and very large borders to police, Germany can focus everything on one border unlike the French, unless Spain are on side and the Soviets are marching West.

France is an underdog, and you can see why, when it wins you know something has gone very wrong for the Germans.

It's been said before, but this design philosophy is - to put it bluntly - very, very boring. The game - Darkest Hour - is about a second world war. Almost every other system in the game exists exclusively to help simulate war. When the war is either a pushover or brutally, unforgivingly hard, it isn't fun, and if it isn't "canon" for France to have a military that can at least give the Germans a run for their money, then canon needs to be changed.
 
bug report:

in the /greece file of events there are some faulty event triggers in the turkey variant of the megali idea (mistakes made when copying the ottoman events to also account for turkey)

line 2217: event = { id = 907100 days = 40 } should be event = { id = 907163 days = 40 }

line 2239: command = { type = war which = OTT } should be command = { type = war which = TUR }

line 2709: command = { type = trigger which = 907122 } should be command = { type = trigger which = 907158 }

line 2939: command = { type = trigger which = 907124 } should be command = { type = trigger which = 907160 }
