The British Empire

Description
The British Empire Mod

This Modification is focused on improving the experience of playing as the United Kingdom and British Commonwealth Nations in a historical manner.
There are some A-historical options available (most notably as the Imperial Federation), but this mod is primarily designed for playing historical playthroughs and giving Jerry a bloody nose.

- The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (including a complete overhaul of the Imperial Federation content)
- The Kingdom of Hanover
- The Dominion of Ireland
- The Dominion of Canada
- The Dominion of Newfoundland

- Anglo-Egyptian Sudan
- British West Africa
- British East Africa
- British Central Africa
- Southern Rhodesia
- The High Commission Territories
- The Union of South Africa
- The Kingdom of Libya

- The British Raj
- British Burma
- India
- Pakistan
- Indian Princely States

- British Malaya
- Kingdom of Sarawak
- British Hong Kong
- Commonwealth of Australia
- Papua New Guinea
- New Zealand
- British West Pacific Territories
- Kingdom of Siam / Thailand

Recommended Additions

For those who own the Allied Armour DLC I would recommend subscribing to my other mod which provides these armour assets to the rest of the commonwealth nations.

Major Game Changes

Several of the geographically remote regions in the North of the Indian Sub-continent and East of Burma, Australia and Papua New Guinea have been modified to represent the immense difficulty of trying to fight over these regions.
The states adjacent to these regions have been made wasteland and impassable in order to better reflect the historical difficulty of fighting over major mountains and deserts.

Acknowledgements

I would like to say a big thank you to the Kaisereich Mod team for allowing the use of their GFX which has gone a long way towards adding more flavour to the project. Thank you very much and keep up the good work.

I would also like to say a big thank you to all of the fans of the mod who have made contributions of time and assets to this project, while not all have been included due to time and resource constraints, they are gratefully received and acknowledged. Thank you.

Future Plans and Ambitions

I hope to produce, and rework, additional content for British Colonial Territories in the future.

In particular I hope to design an update content for:
- United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

- British Malaya rework
- Aden Colony
- Ceylon
- British West Indies
- The Kingdom of Transjordan
- The Trucial States

How you can help

Please leave a comment if you find any issues or errors and like and share the mod if you find it enjoyable.
Every alert I get for an issue does significantly save time for me rectifying the issue.
I have generally little free time for testing the work once it is finished.

I hope you enjoy the mod and please leave a positive review if you think the project deserves it.
God Save the King.

Hi I love this mod, just letting you know though the Australian Focus, which is mint so good best yet; needs updates on so of the rewards. Like Focusing on Building the Bueafort but getting a research bonus to naval bombers. Because there is no naval bombers in the tech tree anymore you don't get any research bonus to medium aircraft. Also the decision in that focus didn't pop either. Another example is the Adelaide to Darwin railway focus did nothing, I'm guessing cause the centre of Australia is a wasteland.

Can you add on-map resource decisions to the different countries
(plz forgive my english, im from Denmark)
Will certainly be 'utilising' this mod over the week as suggested, I wonder if there is a mod out there for the Russian empire?

@Cúchullain91 - I'm really glad that you liked the mod. It certainly is intended to neatly fit over the vanilla system. I think your idea is a good one and I'll add it to my very long to do list once the GBR content is released.

@sheep21 - Good spot on the British Malaya error. I'll implement a fix to that for the next patch. I'm glad to see that content is still being played but I'm aware it really needs a refresh.

@everyone - Paradox Interactive have recently announced they will be releasing the Man the Guns DLC for free in their future patches. This should remove the last content hurdle for the mod once implemented.

does anyone know how I can get india into the federation? Is it pure RNG?

Amazing mod Welshy - has basically replaced vanilla HoI4 for me. Really excited to see how the UK rework plays when it comes out!

One small idea, with the Imperial Federation. I enjoy how it is set up as an either/or between it and Steady as She Goes at the start, but would it be in your long term plan to allow a post-war attempt at federation, maybe depending on all going well in the war for the UK? Eg. Australia/NZ will only sign up if Singapore never fell, Canada contingent on not losing too many casualties etc?

Could be interesting imo, would add a lot of flavour to the late game - although very aware I'm in a minority of players that play past ~1945

Think i found a Bug: Playing as british malaya - completed equal rights for all but did not receive the +40% PP gain and still crippled by low popularity -40%PP, Great mod but its gonna force me to use console to add PP
