A Tale Of Two Games:
This mod, originally created by myself, was originally intended for my LAN group and we played through the original scenario nigh endless times; but said endless times seem to have come to an end. Yet as I wiped my computer, I came across the files and recognizing the hundreds of hours I dropped into this project I couldn't delete it. Yet my LAN-group had moved onto Victoria and I quickly found V: Revolutions to be consuming the vast majority of my time. Thus I bequeath this mod to anyone who wishes to continue in its development.
The time has finally arrived to move on, and I would like to thank all those who helped me when I hit road blocks. Regardless you can expect a new Victoria mod from me in about two months. In the interim take care all, and give the Germans a surprise or two.
NOTE: This Mod is entirely my work (short of the unlimited time mod and hexadecimal Lord Eledon package) and I would appreciate being consulted before you utilize my work in your own mods (especially the artwork ).
Please Note:
This Mod Is In Version 0.3
This mod is for all intents and purposes complete and provides a very detailed alternative history spanning from the Anglo-French Canadian Civil War to the French Imperial intervention (in support of the Catalists) in Spain.
The two files listed bellow contain the Mod in two different forms:
The first file is the .exe installer which will install the game simply through the process of two easy mouse clicks.
Imperial Alpha Mod Executable File
The second file is an .rar archive which contains the original mod files in the folders that correspond to your basic HOI:2 Doomsday installation. This archive is purely intended for modders who want to add their own work.
Imperial Alpha Mod Archive
This project was incredibly time consuming, but if you desire any technical support or want me to re-package the .exe including your additions you can reach me via my email (exiled.traveler@gmail.com).
FINALLY: A big thanks to all the supportive modders who helped me when I began modding this gargantuan project as well as special thanks to Core Modders: Jules and Jordite who were instrumental in keeping me on task with this project. Napoleon, Josephine, how can I ever forget them...
So Don't Let Them Die- Get Modding
and as always:
LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE
TEASERS
I have a few sneak previews for you:
The Story From The French Perspective
The years following the First World War were a disaster for France as she was financially drained and suffering from the physical lack of manpower, associated with the “hollow classes.” Worsening the failings of France on the foreign front was the lack of effective leadership back home. The state was politically divided by conflicting views of the nature of government. Anarchists, Social Democrats, Communists, and Fascists all competed for populist support while neglecting, the rise of a reinvigorated Nationalist Germany to the east. Perhaps the greatest sign of the political atmosphere in France was the construction of the Maginot Line. It was constructed to ensure the German armed forces couldn’t seek revenge for their lost provinces in the First World War. At a cost of over three billion Franks, the Maginot line was incredibly expensive, and put the French military primarily on the defensive. Yet on April 12, 1935, the French would be ushered back towards the Crown of Europe. Faced with constant Army cut backs and never ending domestic strife the Army whole heartedly backed Napoleon’s coup and thus at 12:00 Midnight, Napoleon the Fifth (a French General and the grandson of Napoleon the First’s brother) put into action a near bloodless coup. Six elite Gendarmerie (military police) divisions backed up with armored car brigades assailed the Luxembourg Palace (location of the French Senate), overran the Republican Guard units and captured the legislature. Three Communist and two Anarchist senators were executed. When the French awoke they were awed by the sudden change of Government, but after years of corrupt, and incompetent government most French were content to give Napoleon power to establish some semblance of order. Five days later, a universal plebiscite elected Napoleon the Fifth Emperor of the Second French Imperium, the Empire, and the French, under a constitution which enshrined French culture as the “Center of Europe.” That evening, Napoleon stood atop the Arch de Triumph, and gave the famous “Forgotten Glory Speech.” As Napoleon spoke of a revisited French Empire, straddling the globe, the statues bellow depicted heroically nude French youths battling against bearded Germanic warriors in chain mail. The Nationalist message was clear and France was swept up in a national fervor which has yet to abide. As September 1936 approaches, Napoleon has created an alliance between Danish Scandinavia, Poland, and Turkey, effectively isolating Germany. His reforms have rebuilt the French Economy through a series of public work programs and massive military upgrades. He has furthermore set his Imperial troops along the Belgian Border in preparation to liberate the (primarily) French people residing their. Is a war with Germany inevitable? What of Mussolini’s intentions? Can the Austrian’s turn the tide? Have no doubt, the Nazis will strike first the only question you must ask yourself is “Where do you stand?”
Enjoy.
