Whether or not the StuG III is represented in-game as an assault gun or tank destroyer is of little importance. What IS important is ensuring that the StuG can be decorated appropriately:

StuGs are pretty much decorations in a sense. Sure they're not hugely different, but they're different enough for someone to say "This is my division template" and that appeals to some people.

As a Canadian, I am happy there is an Achivement for playing as Canada. Canada focus tree when?

Joining the Axis sounds like suicide, unless you can keep the US out of the war.

UK would be too distracted by Germany to do anything, would have to secure Newfoundland though.

I'd argue it's relatively easy in HoI4, just a time consuming race to whatever the end date is. There are hard cheevos for it for all "sides," so it's definiately do-able.

Once you smash out the majors it's a matter of going through all the minors with their tiny little garrisons one by one. Just, uh, that involves either taking over the USSR or the US.

Much easier as you are not bound as much by the warscore constraint. Probably the easiest with either the SU or Germany.

I lust for tankette mods. Oh god, and that flame thrower tank the Germans made that had to carry a highly impractical trailer. I really do hope they do DLC that is just the goofiest but still real poo poo that happened. I'm sure there was a prototype vtol plane that couldn't land practically, near the end of the war.

I'm pretty sure HoI2/DH ruled tankettes in as armoured cars. However, I'm not sure if HoI4 has armoured cars or not.

United States is natively refered to as "God's Gift to Earth"

as for alt-history ideologies, what do you mean? do you mean "what kinds of ideologies could have risen in X region?" Or do you mean "in an alt history, what kinds of ideologies could have risen to world prominance?"

If it is the first, then I would really be interested in seeing some of the Arabic countries being portrayed as highly educated(kind of a throwback to the Arab scholars).

If it is the later, then something like "India colonized the world" or "China colonized the world" could be really cool

Shoah Event Mod
Hi,

Would anyone like to collaborate with me in developing an event chain leading up to either the Final Solution or Madagascar Plan? I'm not trying to do this as a means of being grotesque for its own sake, but to develop an atmosphere highlighting historical contexts. I'm thinking it could historically start with Kristallnacht and end with certain conditionals on where Germany is in 43.

The player could even decide to leave it to simple internment.

For that matter, the mod can also be adapted to the US with its internment.
