HoI4 LotC Mod?

[Papa Liam 960]

Recently I’ve been playing HoI4 again, especially with the wildly popular Kaiserreich mod, imagining a post-WW1 scenario in which the German Empire is victorious. It’s lead me to dabble a little further into the realm of creating mods myself, and I was wondering if folks would at all be interested in an LotC HOI4 mod? This would mostly be for my own modding practice and experiences, but an enjoyable mod could come out of it, nonetheless. This would likely take place on Vailor, given the rich political and national lore behind the different communities at that time — Civil wars, the Dukes’ War, contentious Dwarven elections, etc. Given the amount of historical lore that we have on LotC, we could make something comparable to that of Kaiserreich, in terms of how fleshed out the storyline is.

 

Since I’m going to be trying my hand at modding either way, I wanted to know if the community would be interested in such a mod, and if you had any ideas/feedback for this kind of proposal.

It sounds interesting, but I think lotc should solve the lag before adding more plugins.

Liam isn’t talking about adding plugins. He’s talking about making an LoTC based mod for Hoi4.

 

Anyways, lemme pitch a few ideas:

-Maybe consider having this be a ck2 or eu4 mod instead?

-Goodborough should exist initially but get destroyed and replaced with Willow Hollow via scripted events.

-The option to genocide the Snelves should pop up after conquering their territory.

-Make Sanoism OP because you’re biased.

don’t think hoi4 is the game for that

Does this mean one can acquire Dwarven panzers.

HOI4 could be fun but thatd be a great undertaking. I think eu4 or ck2 would be more suited- not only for timeline purposes, but, manpower and army purposes. I’d play it!

It would really work for any Paradox Game. But HoI4 is a good option because of the national focus trees and ****, if you want any help Liam hmu on discord, been thinking about modding HoI4 myself.

Staff nation, focus tree "magic update". Research time: 90 days & pending.

Now see I would do CK2 instead but the only paradox game I own is HOI4 and I’m too cheap to spend another $40 so WW2 lotc it is

[gandalfo 1452]

i think hoi4 is actually the best paradox game to do this with as it has national focuses. i would totally play the mod if you made it.

 

@Papa Liam do it dad plz

[Enlightenment 2300]

Not gonna lie, LOTC would fit better with CK2 or EU4 (probably better with CK2) most certainly not HOI4.

also liam , when the next steam sale happens just hit me up. I’ll get you CK2 dawg

[Kaiser 2347]

CK2 Is probably the better option, so I’d strongly advise for that, even if you don’t have it. But HOI4 Would be neat via the focus trees. I made a comical halfling focus tree once.

 

Just make the halflings communistand we’ll be alright

[Hiebe 2493]

I'll play either.

 

Hmu if you need help with dwarf related nation focuses and political ****

[Beamon4 1690]

Same with me referring to Hiebe

 

and ye HMU aswell if you need any help, love to play it
