A Passion Project for Authenticity

The creation of Decisions Expanded | Two Fronts of WWII stems from a deep appreciation for Hearts of Iron IV and a desire to enhance specific historical aspects. The modder’s particular passion for the Eastern Front, specifically Operation Barbarossa, inspired the development of new systems that emphasize the crucial importance of momentum and strategic initiative. This mod represents a journey through multiple iterations, refined to offer an experience where the ebb and flow of the war feel more dynamic and historically resonant, especially on the Eastern Front.

Recommended Configuration

To achieve the most balanced and intended gameplay experience, the mod is calibrated with the Expert AI mod in mind. While Decisions Expanded | Two Fronts of WWII is designed to be compatible with other modifications due to its non-overwriting nature, using it alongside Expert AI is highly recommended for optimal strategic depth and challenge. Combinations with other mods or playing without Expert AI are done at the user’s own discretion and may alter the intended balance.
