I know you guys are probably set on an African civil war, but personally I'd be more inclined to having some of historic kingdoms in Africa survive and duke it out. I mean, if this is staying for HOI III perhaps the terrain'll be better and you can up the infra a bit down there. Personally I just think it'd be cool to see Old Mali or Ghana fighting against the Zulus or something...

Anyway, just my two cents.
 
To clear it up, the mod isn't dead, but is instead going to be for HOI3. We're using this time to come up with outlines, improve the country layout, and think of the background information.

After some discussion, we might scrap our plans with Africa and the Americas and redraw the map. We're going to make the colonial map more varied, for sure. More independent or semi-independent countries outside Asia.
 
Added a time line that covers the Konset Union and India to the first post and a "How you can help" section. A time line covering more countries will be added when more of the details are hammered out.
 
Updated the first post a little bit, improving the country descriptions. Right now, we're just coming up with event ideas (we'll have 600 events already planned by August 4th if we keep pace. There are already ~150) and ideas for new countries. According to a recent development diary, the map will be easily editable, which will give the mod a lot more flexibility. We plan on getting a half-way playable version out early, but we aren't going to rush anything.

We don't have a forum established yet, but we may put one up when hoi3 is released.

Fictional. Some of the names are just temporary until we can think up some better ones. There will be historical characters appearing in the mod though, but probably not in ways you expect. Ol' Adolf will be in for sure, and we wouldn't pass up on an opportunity to piss off all of Turkey by making fun of Ataturk.

Well,Id like more if you would use RL characters like KR does,but still,this is your mod,so you decide.:)
 
What about some kinda of "european liberation movements", an European National Congress, the Europeans claiming seats in the Asian Parliaments, a greater religious division between catholics and protestants that prevents the formation of a united front, puppets kings collaborating with the colonial authorities, etc, etc.
