Anyone able to give me a description of what the HSR mod actually does. Clearly it makes life Hard and Stoney for someone but whom and by what method does it achieve this ?

Most of its difficulty comes from events that give tons of free units to whomever your enemies are. So if you were Germany, as you advance into Russia when you take certain provinces or reach a certain point advancing through Russia the Soviets will give several infrantry divisions created entirely by event. Also, instead of teaching the AI to do Normandy, they simply create dozens of Allied units in northern France.
It's similiar for all the major powers.
Some people enjoy the harder difficulty, others dislike completely working outside the game engine.
once i tried this mod,,,,, i never played hoi2 vanilla ever again.
this is a mod made specialy for players who like to play GERMANY.
100+ new ( and better )events.
new units.
more historic appraoch
hoi2 vanilla lets u go in russia without defending you beaches, trust me u have to defend them now.
the only sad part is that YES it is scripted events taht lets the AI pour division on X beach. but it still better then nothing at all.
one advice tho, take russia in ONE swift campain or it will be very hard, not un-doable but hard.
play on normal/normal first

this is one of the oldest and best mods out there,although leadership changed several time. the mod nighty started way back when for HOI1 still lives on.I have not seem Aregon working aon a new offical release,but there is a very motivated group that are woeking on a ADD_ON mod,it is still in it alpha mod.I looked through it and it is a massive project,it is not balanced or prefected yet,if you play as Germany it is well worth playing,there are tons,and tons,and tons of new evets,greatly expanded tech tree,I recommed it even in its beta-mod of devlopment. 
I do play some single player games but mostly I play multi-player and it does not sound like hsr is designed for multi-player; or have I drawn the wrong conclusions here ?
not for multiplayer yes.
hsr mostly make the weak ai for big nations better couse they get events that help them defend

I think I will give it a miss for Multi-player but may give it a go for single player then.
Hi,
Until what year runs this modification by the way. Until 1947, or is it possible to play longer then that?
