I`ve been working on a little mod lately. Its mostly based on ideas I had during beta that didnt make it into the final game.
The events and changes focus on Romania and southeast asia.

Download here

List of changes:
Added Kwangtung (U18) and Kwangsi (U19) as new countries.
Added Eastern Turkmenistan (U17) as revolter.
Removed initial CHI and CHC claims on TIB and SIK, to increase the laters survivability.
Added claims for HUN and BUL, against ROM and YUG.
New CHI, CHC and JAP ai.
Added flags for Romania, Eastern Turkmenistan, Kwangsi and Kwangtung, courtesy of Txini (thx :)).
Dummy leaders and ministers for new countries.
Added minimum tech for all countries:
techapps = { 4001 4303 }
This means all countries have the ability to convert coal->oil->rubber.
Changed CHCs starting alignment to prevent it from joining comintern.
Changed Romanias starting alignment to make it more historical (closer to the allies).

Events:
(uses ids from 9900 and up)

Romania
These events use many of the ministers that *someone* went to great lengths to research, but hardly ever gets used in normal HoI, but more importantly they produce a much more true to history simulation of Romanias drift from democracy to fascist to communist. It also provides some interesting what-ifs, like a communist takover during the crisis of 1940 (which usually ends with a fascist takeover). There might be problems with the anti-fascist event not resulting in war with GER, if GER has or gives MA to ROM, but theres nothing I can do about that...:(

French Thai war
There are about 6 events for SIA, VIC and JAP covering the french-thai war, and japanese mediation in it.
In addition there are SIA events to give JAP access through it, and the possibility of making SIA a JAP puppet.

Marco Polo bridge incident
I cant belive HoI shipped without it...

Chinese civil war
When JAP is eliminated the Chinese civil war usually starts up again. Other nations will return chinese territory. When the civil war ends the victor gets claims on all of China, possibly Mongolia as well.

SOV vs MAN
Dow vs MAN if SOV is at war with JAP after 44, she dows MAN as well.

JAP puppets join axis when JAP joins axis
Made such events for MAN, MON, PHI, SIA, AST, NZE, CHI, CHC, SIK, U18, U19, U17.
This is marginal, but it always bothered me that puppets JAP made before joining the axis never joined.

Revolt in eastern Turkmenistan
This was supposed to be three events, one of them covering Soviet intervention, but it was cut. Expect a improved set of events covering this later, which also includes events for the revolt spreading into the USSR, especially if they dont intervene.
This event seems to fire too often, but it might just be coincidence, any feedback is appreciated.

Kwangsi and Kwangtung
A set of events covering the KMT campaign of 1936, including the possibility of a japanese intervention. If they by some miracle survive through 36, there are two events that almost guarantee a JAP dow when the sino-jap war starts. All in all, the chance of any of these surviving for more than a year or two are minimal.

All in all, 60+ events.
Any feedback or bug reporting is more than welcome. Just post it here. Events have been tested, but I have not done extensive testing regarding playbalance, and havent tried to address playbalance issues.

Future plans:
Turks in USSR revolt, both from the revolt in eastern turkmenistan, and from the bitter peace.
Possible JAP puppets: Indochina, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Burma, Indochina and Indonesia.
Events covering JAP victory in China.
Events leading up to the German attack on Norway.
Romania can switch sides if losing to GER.

If you have any ideas of stuff you would like to see, post it here.

Download the mod here.
I was working on a installer, but I encountered too many problems so I left it for now. I guess most of you are familiar with the wonders of Winzip.

Edit: I keep remembering stuff I`ve changed...

Thx. :)
I didnt intend it to be much of a graphics mod, but I needed flags for the new countries added, and when I saw the romanian flag on Txini`s site I added it as well since I had so much other stuff on Romania.
Maybe i`ll add more flags for the next version.

Stuff I forgot to mention in the original announcement:
SIK starts at peace with CHI and CHC.

changes to existing events:
Vienna diktat event (ROM 2701) cedes 868 to Bulgaria, maybe in the next version i`ll make separate events for this (BUL+ROM).
Sian event (CHI 4101) removes 1570 and 1571 as CHI nationalprovinces. This was necessary to prevent CHI from annexing CHC through territorial demands. They are added again if they win the civil war.

Both of these changes must be considered to be minor, and should not have a significant negative impact on regular play.

Ktarn will this work with the latest Beta?
I could have told you that it works just fine with the latest beta, but i`m afraid that its a violation of the NDA.
 
Future plans

Forgot to mention it. If anyone has read through the event files you would have seen some references to communist resurgence events. These are events that will make the CHC reappear. I`m also working on some modifications to simulate communist base areas.
 
Re: Future plans

...some events to cover German occupation of the UK home islands, and the possibilities it opens up.

In case anyone wonders, my notes for the mod are kinda fragmented...but I think i`ve mentioned everything i`ve got planned so far...
Except that i`m looking for some better counters and possibly sprites. And if anyone with better graphics skills than me could do a nice bmp to use for the installer, i`d be eternally gratefull.
 
Originally posted by HoMIciDaL_PuPPy
what u mean bmp like an openin graphic or something else?
/me nods in agreement. If I take the time to make a webpage i`ll prolly use it there as well.
 
Originally posted by HoMIciDaL_PuPPy
ok ill toy around and make u an opening like graphic thingy what size u want it???
eh...not too big, but not too small either ;)
Is it possible to see some examples before making a decision?
Thx for helping me out :).
 
Kmod 1.01 released

As an embarassing bug was discovered, i`ve released a new version:

Download here

Changes to 1.01
-Event "Romania joins the war against the USSR" (9970) now correctly happens to ROM (thx HlvtnCndn). Trigger changed from the event covering the loss of Transylvania, to not control of the provinces. Added atwar = no trigger.
-Event "Fascist takeover" (9901) triggers changed to be dependent only on loss of either Transylvania or Bessarabia. Fascist and communist takeover options now include alliance with GER and SOV respectively. There might still be some strange cases with this event.
-Event "Popular Front government" (9904) triggers changed to !communist and ROM allied to SOV.
-Added japanese rising sun flag by HoMIciDaL_PuPPy
 
Allied invasion of Persia

I`ve written a sert of events to cover the allied invasion of Persia, they will be included in the next version of Kmod.
 
Sudetenland-Munich

I`ve made a set of events covering the German claims to Sudetenland, and the possibility of the western allies to support CZE. Munich now requires allied approval. Makes for an interesting what-if the allies choose to go to war over CZE.
Will be included in the next version of Kmod.
 
While you're at it, could you throw in some negative modifiers to Allied warentry, assuming the Treaty of Munich occurs as it did historically? Right now, there are none, but it really should slow down their march to war a bit, given that Chamberlain thought he was accomplishing "Peace in Our Time" by caving in to Hitler.
