Best mod for playing Turkey in WW2?

[Amgot]

Hi, new DH player here. I'm planning on playing a game as Turkey and aligning myself with the Axis to see how a belligerent Turkey might have changed the outcome of WW2. I'm planning on a pretty late start (september 1939 or may 1940) to simulate a sudden change of mind regarding Turkey's involvement in a new European conflict after Mustafa Kemal's death- so no build-up phase in order to prepare for war, you have to make do with the state of the Turkish economy and army in 1939/1940.

I'm particularly interested in Turkish events, leaders and accurate OOB. As far as I can see, big mods seem to focus on the major powers but does anyone know if one of them add some of that stuff to Turkey? The only thing I found so far is that TRP has a reworked more historical Turkish OOB - but TRP starts in 1933 and I'm looking for a later start date.

If no mods are available, what do you think of the DH vanilla game OOB and leaders for Turkey in 1939/1940 start dates?

I think no one has developed such mod about Turkey. But, if you wish to play as a powerful Turkey, I advise you Kaiserreich mod. It's an alternative mod where Germany won WW1 and the Central Powers managed to hold their empires together (most of the time). The Ottoman Empire is a strong nation with flavour events and three dangerous enemies (Egypt, Persia and Hashemite Arabia). The tensions inside the 'Sick Man of Europe' are still present and the nation is initially quite underdeveloped and the songs of revolts in the Arab Villayets are drawing close once more...
But I think you would enjoy the mod in the HoI4 version as it is more updated than the DH one.
Hope to have at least been helpful in giving you some interesting new stuff to try!

Hey, thanks a lot for your reply. I've only heard good things about Kaiserreich, so I'll be sure to play it soon. However for now, I'd like a non-ahistorical game with Turkey but as you say, it seems that Turkey as a minor got little love from mods.

I think the problem is the source material. There are not enough information for more Turkey events/decisions/content available. We dont have any "Turkey expert" here. Furthermore i think most development teams are limited to english source material. So they wont be able to work with turkish material at all.
The "big nations" are way easier to work with.

And a small personal note; TRP starts in 1936 I tried to rework the turkish army data as good as possible but most of the turkish data were taken from the League of Nations books so take those numbers with a grain of salt.

Give the All In One mod a try. I've never played as Turkey, but its creater @jamiroquai000 is Greek and he's created a lot of events for the Balkan nations and for a Greek-Turkish war. He may have also modded Turkey's files too.

Thanks to both of you, very useful info.
