The Phoenix Rises

Description
NEW VERSION IS AVAILABLE HERE:

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2208421145



The Phoenix Rises is a mod that adds a new nation to HOI4: New Byzantium.

In the calm before the storm, a bolt strikes- the assassination of Ionnis Metaxas, leader of Greece. From within the dissaray of the political system, a proud and eager historian by the name of Perzeuz Konstantinos has worked his way into the government through stubbornness and diplomacy, leaving him with the power to materialize the ideas he holds of a resurrected empire; New Byzantium.

Take control of the small nation, and conquer your way back to Byzantine greatness! Bend the people to your will, and choose their politics for them!

Research a Byzantine-specific new unit, and use it to rip the enemies to shreds! Including nearly 30 new events, an extensive new focus tree, and a country-specific new technology for a brand-new unit, this mod gives you options to play however you choose- oppose the Nazis, and protect the passage to Africa, befriend Hitler, and become a member of the Axis? Or in late game, become democratic and expand your political reaches to the Americas, forge new political factions, and spread democracy across the world... Or maybe even... Start World War 3?

The choices are yours as The Phoenix Rises, decide the fate of the world now!

P.S. - Any feedback would be much appreciated. This was a one-man project with over 180,000 characters of original code, nearly fifty hours of testing, refining, and improving- 50 custom-made GFX files, new units, the whole shabang. If anyone wants the files for this mod to have a look at, drop me a DM and I'll sort out copying them over!

Have fun!

Hey guys, I'm glad you're enjoying my work. If you'd like, please give the updated version a go, which includes some fixes and tweaks amongst other bits that improve the game. You can find the link in the description for this version of the mod, as I was a massive noob and didn't understand how to update mods when I originally produced a new version. Thanks!

Funnest OP focus tree mod i've ever played. The focuses are op (but fun) well made, detailed focuses, the only thing i would add to the tree is more focuses related to ideology and internal politics and maybe some more late game focuses like conquering or uniting the rest of the world. Some little things that would be nice: Adding Infantry, air and artillery icons and names unique to Byzantium. (maybe just names) The national spirits and focuses are op, but also balanced considering things like the not so great starting position and constant struggle for resources, (Early-Mid game at least) certain focuses like operation skyforge, black flag etc are really helpful to boost you up to a world power and not just leave you in control of the Balkans and eventually just die bc you Can't compete with the major factions. Overall: This is an amazing mod! Best Greece\Byzantium nation mod i've ever played.

Hope you're all good, just to let you know that I will be updating the mod with a few new things;

- Implemented decisions for coring states
- Campaign assistance through decisions
- Fixed bug in initial event for annexing Greece where the user would not gain any cores on Greek territory
- Nerfs and buffs to certain modifiers
- New special decision reward for completion of restoration campaign

Be sure to check it out!

Many thanks,
A.J., Mod Producer

Sounds good... I'll alter the annexation event for the beginning of the game! Thanks for the feedback!

The perfect amount of OP! Also can you make cores on all of greece after we annex it? I had to use seperate mods.
Alfred the Greatest  [author] 24 Aug, 2020 @ 5:39am 
I will look into adding cores through some kind of decisions system or maybe trough focuses. Good call! Thanks for the feedback so far!
