Good Morning All,

I'm pretty new to DH, but enjoying it thus far. I'm trying to find a mod where I can play all the way through from 1914 until at least 1945, if not beyond.
I'm aware of Blood & Iron WW1 mod, but unsure if this supports the interwar period and transition to WW2?
I've heard of 'TGC' (The Grand Campaign), which might be what I'm looking for, but support ended in 2021. There appears to be a lot of different pockets of activity and hard to know what mods are out there entirely.
Does anyone have any immediate thoughts or recommendations that spring to mind?

Thanks in advance.

TGC is really the only one. I still occasionally play it. Although it still has interwar events and decisions, WW1 almost always results in a Central Powers victory (and no Nazi Germany) unless you play as France or maybe UK to force an Allied victory and then play from there. But even that doesn't always result in a purely historical interwar. But if you approach it as a mostly sandbox playthrough, then you'll have a lot of fun. I choose the "anyone can declare war" setting too which sometimes results in some unexpected but fun wars. There used to be another mod by Ericafaq (Nikita) that was on here called Peace Without Victory (PWV). He put a ton of work into it and it was very refined, but it was a bit too railroaded for me. I think he ended up pulling it from the forum, but I someone here has an upload for it I think.

Thanks for your reply! It sounds like I'm using the right mod in that case.

I was wondering if you have any 'go-to' mods for an enriched or more accurate WW1 scenario?

True.
Nevertheless...
here the link to the forum thread: Peace without victory by Ericafaq
and here a download link:
Peace-without-victory_PWV_2020-05-08.7z (1.53 GB)
In case above direct link doesn't work (I might need to reorganize or shuffle files) , try Various DH mods and scenarios or this thread.

Too sad if this mod would just vanish although I can understand his point.
I am doing this without authorization by @Ericafaq and if he insists I'll, sadly, take down the link.

I might have a mod for you, it is really made to go through that whole time period, the counterpart is it is not entirely translated but only few events are not translated (max 100 on thousands of events)
 
I just sent you the file, I'll probably upload it on the forum once I finished the translation.

Is it possible to have the link too please? Long gamrplays with minors is my favourite way to play for which you need a 1914 - 1945+ playthrough to achieve. Thanks!

Hello, mod is still unfinished and has still some parts in French, are you still interested ?
 
Yes I am, I speak moderate French and pretty much only play long-term gameplays with minor/regional nations, preferring to start from 1914. I am very interested :)

I've sent you the link, latest version is more stable (game may crash at lunch tho but restart and it should be fine) and more balanced but if you encounter any bug et me know and I'll do my best to fix it especially if it breaks the run :)

If you want a strictly eventful WW I, play as Australia in the TGC mod. I put a lot of work into Australia and right up to the interwar period through to 1939. I had my house broken into around that time and locked out of most of my primary accounts and with updates to DH itself, I'm not capable of modding the game anymore. You'll leanr a bit about Australian history and have to deal with all kinds of strikes and riots while trying to prosecute the war.
