Except that an alliance between the Entente and the Second Internationale is almost impossible lore-wise. For the simple reason that they are mirror images of each other, created as a result of huge civil wars/revolutions that happened in their countries. Asking the Union of Britain and Canada...

I'd argue even McArthur isn't necessarilly villainous, more of a well-intentionned (in his eyes) extremist that can become a villain. That is if he still has the option of playing American Cincinnatus and isn't restricted to go only the Amercian Caesar way. He's still pretty bad and his coup is...

For those interested in trying CK3, the game is currently free to play until the end of the week-end.

The Paradox experience in full effect. When the game wants to screw you over, it doesn't pull back any punches. Hard luck and bad RNG Gukpard. Hopefully, next game will be better.

To my understanding, Azad Hind is more a fusion of the Bharatiya Commune and the Princely Federation in the Indian rework. Azad Hind doesn't start as with a Syndicalist regime and it has a wide variety of political routes it can go. The only common point everything has in Azad Hind was that they...

God, I hope not. That calendar was silly. That said, I imagine the Jacobins could reinstate it... Kerensky is always supposed to die at the beginning of KR to push Russia into a huge political crisis, with various factions competing for power from the second coming of the USSR to Tsarits...

That, and CK2's probably going to keep a large fanbase for a while : I don't think every PDX gamer switches from the older number in the series to the new one immediately. Plus, it's not like modders will not necessarilly want to try to see how much they could "break" CK2 before going to CK3.

Most of the lore in After the End concerned North and Central America so we barely know anything about what happened South of the Amazon river (roughly). Given that they're going to expand the map, we're also probably going to get new lore about Brazil and South America.

To my understanding, yes. In fact, there are probably going to be playable characters in Argentina too.

Seems logical. De La Rocque was a military man after all so even if he intends to restore democracy (on his terms), he'd probably have serious authoritarian tendencies. Plus, given the situation of National France at the start, De La Rocque might be considering that he starts leading a...

De La Rocque is basically regarded as a more authoritarian version of De Gaulle nowadays. His Croix-de-feu were classified as a Far Right League but among those they were pretty calm and disciplined. De La Rocque was extremly critical of the Third Republic but he wanted to stay in the legality...

Not sure the comparison to Napoleon works... Feels a bit too flattering for Pétain, even in this scenario. Plus it's Napoleon we're talking about: the man kind of built his legend as that the hero of a greek tragedy. Hell, he's probably one of the most popular historical figures despite the fact...

Pétain is more the hero that lived long enough to become the villain. Had he died before WW2 OTL, he would only have been remembered as the Hero of Verdun. He was far from perfect of course: aside from a reputation as a womanizer, he was also pretty conservative and reactionnary. That's mostly...

Gukpard, are the more Republican trees of National France in the works? The ones based around choosing Mordacq in the main mod for example. Because I am legitimately curious to see what they do with it. Interestingly though, they seem to have somewhat favorable policies towards their colonial...

If anything, the current situation in the mod is somewhat realistic with Emperor Charles having attempted to start the necessary reforms but still facing opposition (mainly in Hungary) and having had to make compromises that might not hold. With of course all the other variables that could have...

Going after Alexander's Empire would have taken too much effort from Rome. For one thing, Rome was already in possession of a pretty huge empire that encircled the whole Mediteranean see. They had ways to hold on to that many territories but expanding beyond these borders was hard... Hell, the...

Yes. But which one's the truth? Neither me nor you know. We're just defending our views on this and we pretty much agree to disagree. It's a former republic that is under an emergency military government and forced to base itself in its colonies. Of course it's authoritarian and not that nice...

I'll stop doing it when people will stop selling me the Internationale as "perfect good guys". The Entente and the Reichspakt have their issues. No one is denying that nor questionning it. But I've seen people saying the Internationale is flawless way too much for my liking. Because it's a big...

Personnally, I'm tired of each and every people arguing for the apologia and/or demonization of certain factions, be they the Entente, the Kaiserreich or the Internationale. The mod is designed so the player can make them take whatever road he wants, so the point is moot in arguing which one is...

Yep. The last Dev Diary they posted indicated that they'd be transferring the project to CK3 after finishing the last CK2 build (who might still be getting bugfixes after that, I'm not sure). They even showed a few screens of the WIP, notably in terms of religions. The map will also get a...
