By help, I mean A LOT of help. Mostly with AI files (I know nothing about them), scenario files, possible events (they will come later, if anyone pays any interest in this), working with me on creating a couple of new nations to work with the idea of the scenario, and finally presenting it as a pack.
This mod must work with the CCIP, and is intended to be a bit similar to the red barons mod (where Germany is part of the commintern). Simple, small changes that change the game in a large way. A lot of other mods that I've tried butcher a lot of elements.
Everything I've put below can be questioned...if this mod ever sees the light of day 100% of the credit goes to those who helped, while I sit happily playing the finished product

Scenario basic history
The annexation of the Korean Empire in 1910 did not occur. Instead, the Japanese government opted to keep Korea as a loyal ally. This could have historically happened, as the Japanese government were open to the two possibilities of either annexation or an independent Korea during the first Sino-Japanese war. The invasion of Korea was to simply remove the nation as a threat, apparently because it was "pointed, like a dagger into the heart of Japan". Pan-Asianist liberals like Tokichi Tarui would strike a chord with the people of Japan, and though still effectively an autocracy, the nation would strive for a new (though yet unnamed) co-prosperity sphere in a much purer form. "The West has no real place in Asia, Asia for the Asians".
Sun-Yat Sen of the Republic of China would agree with this ideal, but his death would open the door for the pro-western Chiang Kai Shek, who would later rise to power in China and start dealing actively with the West, hugely distancing China from Japan. Because of this, the invasion of Manchuria still goes ahead in 1931, establishing an independent Manchukuo under Emperor Puyi.
By 1936, the map is largely unchanged from our history, apart from a Korea under Emperor Eumin. The Goals of Japan are completely different too...European influence will be removed from the continent by any means necessary, willing or unwilling. Japan steps up to become the father of the Asian household.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, in the mod I wish to include:
Independent Manchurian and Korean nations at the start. (I have a suitable Korean cabinet already)
Revised territorial claims for Manchukuo, Mengkukuo and Tibet (I have these drawn out already, open to further suggestion)
New Nations:
(new)Republic of China, under the five races flag...headed by none other than the lovely Wang Jingwei.
Turkistan. (and/or East-Turkistan?)
Japanese Australasia (This makes up the urban areas of Australia and New Zealand, giving rest of the country to Japan...think of this as a little booty for all the trouble)
Formosa? (will have to look into that)
An independent Hui state?
Possible Revised cabinet for:
The Philippines (P. laurel is accurate...but a few more could be handy)
Basically, I want this to be represented (not the propaganda part...):
