Post war & peace conference settlement

Master the Post-War World in Hearts of Iron IV

Tired of the chaotic and often nonsensical territorial outcomes of vanilla Hearts of Iron IV peace conferences? This mod introduces a refined and engaging post-war settlement system designed to eliminate “border gore” and provide a more strategic approach to managing your conquered territories. Drawing inspiration from established overhauls, this modification aims to deliver a more cohesive and believable end-game experience.

A Smarter Peace Conference and Puppet System

Gone are the days of arbitrary annexations. This mod overhauls the peace conference by limiting immediate annexations, forcing players and the AI to engage with a more nuanced system of territorial redistribution. Following the initial conference, new decisions and events will emerge, allowing for the strategic release of puppets and the controlled transfer of territory. A crucial requirement for these post-conference actions is ownership of the capital state of the relevant nation, or alternatively, the creation of dynamic puppets in regions you occupy.

Key Features for Strategic Domination

This modification brings a wealth of new mechanics to enhance your strategic decision-making:

• Automated claim assignment ensures a smoother integration of newly acquired territories.
• The ability to request claims from your own puppets, further solidifying your sphere of influence.
• Seamlessly transfer allied cores within your faction, promoting unity and strategic depth.
• Granting puppets territories that are historically their cores, leading to more stable client states.
• A dynamic puppet system that can handle situations where a nation is divided, such as the historical division of Germany.
• Specific decisions to assign contested regions like Alsace-Lorraine or Transylvania to particular puppets, allowing for detailed geopolitical engineering.
• New subject types for military and colonial administration in Africa, adding depth to imperial management.
• A mandatory redistribution system for inaccessible states, ensuring logical territorial control and preventing orphaned territories.

Compatibility and Community

This mod is designed to be compatible with most Hearts of Iron IV installations, particularly those that do not drastically alter the game’s state configuration. It is also compatible with popular total conversion mods like Road to 56. Development is ongoing, with community feedback and contributions greatly valued. For those interested in supporting the project or staying up-to-date with the latest developments, community channels are available.
