Ok so I decided to load up the new version of the mod with a comfy RoC game, defeating Mao and then modernising the industry, something laid back whilst I'm sick. I quickly noticed the new content Germany and the German East have, which is nice, but I did notice a few things. Because of the new way in which the German East is set up, in the wake of Hitler's death and the chaos in the east, the event that for example transforms the Lokot Republic into the Russian National Republic leaves the Belarussian border area and Novgorod area German. So a really ugly stretch of German land from St. Petersburg to Ukraine. Second, in my campaigns to reintegrate lost territories like Xinjiang and Mongolia, I got into a war with Turkestan and Siberia as well because of the Siberian-Mongolian pact that can form very early on. I owned all of Siberia except for the land of the Far Eastern Republic which the USA had conquered and granted to Japan. I also just couldn't give the territory away to the USSR since that diplomatic action was blocked. It would be nice if there were events for these kinds of situations. But, to tie this in to a older discussion of a standard anti-Axis US game being boring: allow for the USA to decide to invade Russia through Vladivostok. Imagine this: the USA invades Vladivostok to topple Rodzaevsky. It then sets up the UN Trust Territory of the Russian Far East. There is then a choice as to what the goal of this Trust Territory is. It can be a temporary arrangement untill a singular Russian government comes out of the chaos and is then reannexed. Or, the US can decide that communism just won't do and they'll bring democracy to Russia, driving west from Vladivostok. Once the US comes into conflict with the USSR, it would probably trigger German intervention as well, seeing them drive for the Urals. This choice can also probably be influenced by the UN-Comintern relationship value. Finally, it would be nice to give China a option to intervene in the Indochina War, but this would probably have to tie in further with work on the UN and work on Free France since the Indochinese Union falls under their authority.
Finally, I also just started up a German game to experience the new content. The Cossacks didn't allow for me to build a defensive line through their land so I invaded them, but no event triggered on what to do with their land. Is this WAD (because I know Muscovy is only organized upon a second German victory over the USSR) or do I just hand over the land to RK Kaukasien manually? Since I also see a RK Don-Wolga has popped up in my releasables.
