Game Extension Mod

[unmerged(49009)]

Peaceful Greetings

I am new to this community, and quite new to the game. I like to play it, but recently I enjoy modifing it a bit more.

I am currently playing the Germans (third Game at all). I conquered Europe and Africa, and forced the Soviets to accept a surrender. Now, 1948 approaching, I am preparing for an invasion of the british and dutch territories in Asia. But - Game Ends! I have won! But not achived my goal of total world domination. So I downloaded and installed the No-Time Mod, but that would only mean that I can play on virtually indefinitly.

So I startet to think of new technologies to develope, and what startet as a simple copy-and-paste editing practice, has turned into a full scale mod, including new techs, units and reworked graphics.

I didn't see anything like it here, so I decided to call this the "Game Extension Mod". It is designed to run 'till 1.1.1960 (That's when all the leaders die).

This is in it:

- twice as much infantry units as there are now
- additional Tanks and Brigades (there is little room left in the Tank & Arti tech tree, so I have to be creative)
- four new ships for each type except SS an BB (their Era ends in WW2 with the sinking of the Bismark)
- Missle Carrier SS
- Space Program (not completely certain how to add that, but you will be able to develope satelites.)
- additional airplane types
- new doctrines (few, again, there is little room left)

The above part is pretty much worked out, the events are my problem right now.

I can think of some events that will happen if the Allies win the war (founding of Isreal, UN, fights for freedom in all colonies), but what if the Axis wins the war? Is it possible, the British ask for peace once London is lost? I doubt it!

Any input or ideas you have would be appreciated. Or do you experienced players allways achive your goals before 1948?

Why would there not be any more Subs?

Thanks for your responses, samu and Zuckergußgebäck (how did you come up with that name?).

@samu: First I don't want to wait 'till April, second I wanna do this myself. I enjoy doing this kind of stuff, and I wanted to see, if I can do something like this on my own. And after putting considerable time into it, I thought someone in the community might be interested.

@Zuckergußgebäck: There are only so many things you can put into the research tree. And, thanks to the development of warfare, Submarines are needed less and less for naval combat. They are used more in a manner of reconnaissance or global strategy, wich is represented in the missle carrier capability.
