I've been calling in cash from several popes, and taking advantage of crusades to invade infidels. Should this make me nervous?

On a side note, how good is it to get a kinsman or vassal elected pope? Do the benefits outweigh the costs?

On a slightly related note, the remnants of Russia shouldn't be communist, in the same way that defeated Italy and Germany did not remain fascist after the war

Ei

I've been out of the loop, what is the mod you're doing exactly?

Why not? Stalin surrendered and got to keep Siberia

why

Yeah, but it was an ideological war, so the loser's ideology is automatically discredited. Same in our timeline for WWII (plus the collapse of the USSR later discrediting communism), same for Napoleon.

>stalin surrendered
DELETE THIS
t. Beria

but seriously, that old fuck would never surrender. change that

>plus the collapse of the USSR later discrediting communism

If Stalin lost the war I highly doubt that communism would have survived. Either a coup or extreme North Korea like dictatorship would have ensued a Russian defeat.

ANSWER ME NIGGA

Well how many actual communist countries are there left in the world? North Korea?

And there's no serious threat of communism spreading anymore (if there ever was such a thing to begin with)

North Korea is not communist, communism has never existed

There most defiantly was. During the cold war. But today no.Maybe in the future with the rise of china and their eventual impact on the politics and economies of developing nations (eg.africa) than there might be.

Translated:
>tfw we actually did create a second Discord to get away from le eternal Polish Tranny

There are also people who claim that Mein Kampf-style National Socialism has never existed, yet it's equally discredited

Ostrogoths are now in a personal union under Byzantium. Perhaps we will see a BIG BYZ soon.

Also Roma is Orthodox now.

Uh... Hitler won... and shit. I'll make a pastebin some day, maybe later today, and i'll put the planned features, i guess.

After Stalin dies you get an event to choose if you want to go more "National Bolchevick", or basically, more nationalistic, and with a focus on making babies and taking back Rusia. Or you can focus on trying to spread revolutions and fucking with the other powers' spheres. BUT, at the start of the game you do get an event to choose if you want communism to be a meme or not, and that turns off scripted commie shit, and makes the Soviets a non-communist dictatorship when stalin dies

>so the loser's ideology is automatically discredited
Well, in Hitlermod that's simulated by having communism either turn even more radicalized towards the right (becoming National Boshevic) or the left (becoming grosstrotskyums).

It's pretty obvious by now that China is more China than it is communist

for hoi4?

t. discord lefty
go back to your social democrat hugbox

For Vicky, hoi4 is literally garbage, i didn't even buy it

Oh, ok. National Bolshevik definitely makes more sense. But Stalin definitely would not be in power if the Soviets lost the war, chances are he'd be killed and immediately replaced. This would make for better gameplay too, since the NazBol revanchist could start right away

Yeah, I'll probably change that later, but I don't really want to go around changing the same thing every day.

the files have Trinidad getting oil in both 1902 and 1917 so I assume it gets oil in 1902 then?

Things go as normal for the most part during the war. Mackenzie King supports the British war effort as he did in the original timeline, though since the war seems increasingly hopeless he ignores the pleas of English Canada and decides not to enact any type of consciption, but it doesn't make a difference since Britain surrenders very soon after. Despite this, Mackenzie King is still recognised to have done a good job leading the war effort, and he wins the 1945 election (although very slightly) and remains in power until his historical retirement in 1948. He's succeeded (as in our timeline) by Louis St. Laurent.

Since the UK lost the war and the US remains isolationist, St. Laurent decides to pursue a more autonomist position of being allied to the United States and seeing Canada confine itself more or less exclusively to the American continent, and avoid foreign interventions. He enjoys the support of Maurice Duplessis' Quebec government and of French Canadians in general.

Now, contrary to St. Laurent's vision of a Canada that is more or less independent of Britain and free to act on its own, Adrien Arcand is released from prison and resumes activity in politics, managing to win a seat in parliament with the Unity Party. Contrary to St. Laurent's isolationism, Arcand wants to have strong ties to Fascist Britain and adopt Fascist policies in Canada. As well, (like in real life) Arcand is a huge admirer of Adolf Hitler and the success of the Reich. Because of his strong pro-British stance, he enjoys massive support in Anglo Canada. Arcand's building of strong ties with Germany worries some Americans, since it might grant the Reich a staging ground for future expansion.

>doesn't have a Megali Greek protectorate and therefore is not the protector of Christendom

>doesn't own the entire fucking world
baka

>mfw fascist and faggot have the same latin root

Slightly better version

I thought about it but defending yourself against the US in land wars would be pretty much a waste of everything. I did add Hawaii due to Fort Elizabeth though.

So far:
>France
>Italy
>Poland
>Turkey
>now Russia
Any other one wasn't made by me.

>What's next?
Not sure, up to yesterday I thought the Turkish one would be my last one. Maybe Mexico, but I don't think I'll finish it this weekend.

>blobbing

>Fascist britain
Other than that, it sound interesting to give the player some choices, I'll consider adding it. I was thinking, since the UK isn't actually fascist, they just surrender and keep the royal family and all of that, and lose most of their colonies. At some point, Mussolini can make a coup or something, and get rid of his King, and then after some years, the economy crashes, and they can move away from Germany, and try to ally the UK, maybe Spain and Portugal too. Then, they can form their own little faction, to defend themselves from Germany. Canada also should have a bigger navy and all of that, since the US is going to be isolationist at the start of the game.

>no east turkestan protectorate

could you post the rest? I wasn't there for them, I don't think and I generally like your blobbing aesthetics

Canada actually had the fourth-largest navy at the end of WWII (after the US, the UK and Japan if I remember right) so it's historical too

how does Iran fair in the post-british influence

>doesn't control the Uighurs for true steppe supremacy
>doesn't own Silesia and therefore not the true king of Poland

And what happens with Mosley if the Brits lose? I know he was a bit of a meme but I'm curious since Adrien Arcand was a bit insane yet in this alternate world it might be possible he gains some relevance

Uh, well... I don't really know, I'd prefer to focus on other parts of the world at the moment.

Some anons said people hated him, I don't think they'd elect a fascist after losing to Germany desu

Sure
1/4

Silesia is ancient Polish clay stolen by those dastardly Bohemians, any true ultra-nationalist would take it back after 700 years of seperation

Uighurs in Xinjiang are Turkic like the Kazakhs, etc and thus belong in a true steppe collection (he also has northern Afghanistan which is full of Tajikis and Turkmen)

Can you do an Ireland blob please?

t. Irelad

2/4

Any reason for the South American cone?

how are you nabbing Istanbul in these games?

also the only change I would personally make is more of northern Italy so breddy good, but also that south america is too blobby 4 me

Ok, makes sense
