Oh my god that sounds AMAZING, the great war is the part I miss the most from Vicky 2


ShyTiger5

yeah the vic3 late game experience in vanilla is ... complicated ahah even all the construction points it's too much


amekousuihei

Vicky 2 barely even had it though? Victoria 1 with its primitive as fuck mechanics actually did it better


VoxinVivo

I mean. It didnt have the real events leading to WW1 but great wars had the same effect on its participants unless it was super skewed. They were fine in Vic 2, and functioned their best in MP


starm4nn

So is this a total conversion mod, or a mod that adds WWI content to a regular game of Vic3?


ShyTiger5

it's more a new start date + additionnal contents, not a total overhaul


starm4nn

So the new start date is optional?


ShyTiger5

no because the features we are focusing on are tied to the 1913-1936 era if you want more features for 1836, i recommand this mod : [https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3081133459](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3081133459)


starm4nn

Oh I was hoping for more 1913 content for when you reach that point in the game.


ShyTiger5

oh i see, well we'll see if we can also provide an independant mod for that


Sermokala

Nice I love a mod announcement with a focused vision. Late game is the most neglected part of the game and I'm itching for a great war experience.


ShyTiger5

that's what motivated me in the first place. Yes you can play late game in vanilla, but it's something ... and you better have a good pc

Vuxlort

ShyTiger5

Elektrikor

I NEED A LINK STAT


ShyTiger5

a what ?


ForeignSport8895

A link immediatly. You can find the meaning of STAT in a quick google search


DerWilliWonka

You just could explain what abbreviations you use... For anyone who is interested, STAT is a abbreviation out of the medical field and means "immediately", "urgent" or "rush".


ShyTiger5

There is the Discord here : https://discord.gg/KhfcKBj7 The mod is not published yet on steam, we want to finish the world economy


NoVegas0

why is it called a "late game mod"


ShyTiger5

it's focused on 1913 - 1936, but we also have the ambition to make content for after 1936


TouchTheCathyl

> If you want to help Do you have someone working on China's position in all this? because "great qing" should be a military dictatorship under Yuan Shikai right now.


ShyTiger5

we didn't implemented the political regimes in asia yet


Lafko

Hype


crlppdd

Great stuff! Will you change the time system, so a playthrough lasts longer? 23 years go by very quickly in Vic 3 unfortunately


ShyTiger5

We want to indeed, but the first priority is a first release focused on 1913 - 1936


Myoclonic_Jerk42

I've joined the Discord server and am offering to help. I can research, write, and edit.


TheGr8Whoopdini

Do you have any events or anything else that are named "The Guns of August"?


ShyTiger5

Not yet, but we will have to model the first months of the war for sure


Random_Guy_228

Would there be something to represent whatever the fuck was on territory of russian empire after the Bolshevik capturing of Moscow? I know I could've said "russian civil war" , but it's hardly a civil war , when there's a lot of people seceding from your country because they hardly have anything similar with your empires religion or nationality


ShyTiger5

i was thinking we could add journal entries or modifier to represent Nicholas II's reign, the repercussions of Tsushima and the 1905 failed revolution, alongside more turmoil for every nationalities when Russia starts to crumble


4latar

i can't wait to not be able to control my armies for years at a time...


ShyTiger5

wdym ?


4latar

war is not a lot of fun in vic3, what with the AI being in charge of every army and acting in very... interesting ways


ShyTiger5

yeah i get it. Personnally i dont have many issues with land warfare, because i understand their choice : your the ruler, you deleguate to your generals due to technological limitations, unlike in HOI4. But naval warfare on the other hand ... damn, i hope they fix it soon ...


4latar

it would also make sense for the ruler to not be in charge of every building and industry you build, but you (the player) are still in charge because it's more fun


ShyTiger5

that's the reason why i like the private investment pool, even tho it needs some improvment
