Giant of Iron--Waking the Union!

Current Version: Alpha 2.2 Red Industry Complex
This Mod adds the following changes to the original Soviet national focus tree:
1、Political Line: Most focuses have reduced completion times. After one country builds socialism, a new focus “Steel Giant” is added, which replaces Stalin’s “Man of Iron” with two new traits. “Lenin’s Successor,” “Lenin’s Loyal Follower,” “Great Marshal,” “Communist Designer,” “Brilliant Genius,” and “Ban Excessive Cult of Personality” no longer require propaganda activities. “Zinoviev Anti-Soviet Center,” “Trotsky Anti-Soviet Center,” “Military Conspiracy,” and “Right-Wing & Trotskyist Anti-Soviet Alliance” no longer have to wait 175 days—enjoy your Great Purge! The focus “Wartime Economy” is replaced by “Awaken the Soviet Union.” Upon finishing the “Marxist–Leninist Path,” you gain the “Sleeping Soviet Union” debuff, which can be removed by “Awaken the Soviet Union.” This also triggers the event “Choose Your Economic Development Path.” Five new focuses are added corresponding to Zinoviev Anti-Soviet Center, Trotsky Anti-Soviet Center, Military Conspiracy, Right-Wing & Trotskyist Anti-Soviet Alliance, and “Sever the Serpent’s Head,” mutually exclusive with the original focuses, forming the Reconciliation line. The national spirit effects for restarting Stakhanovism and Socialist Competition are strengthened. Under the Heroism line “War Heroes,” two military branches are added: the Zhukov line and the Tukhachevsky line.
2、Army Line: Most focuses have reduced completion times. Some focuses are no longer mutually exclusive. “Lessons of War” no longer requires waiting for the State of Emergency spirit to expire. A new focus “World Revolution” is added.
3、Navy Line: Most focuses have reduced completion times.
4、Air Force Line: Most focuses have reduced completion times.
5、Industry Line: Most focuses have reduced completion times. Nearly all focuses have been overhauled, their spirit or focus effects reset and strengthened, including the Stalingrad Tractor Factory and other designers (localization not yet updated, so they appear as in the original; after selecting the focus, check the designer to experience the buff).
6、Diplomatic Line: Most focuses have reduced completion times.
Tip: “Soviet Mode” + “Sleeping Soviet Union” will leave you with very few civilian factories—consider dismantling your civilian economy ASAP!
The bonuses this Mod provides are seriously overpowered! It is recommended to select with caution or adjust difficulty via other Mods or game rules to maintain balance!

All languages except Simplified Chinese are translated by DeepSeek or ChatGPT, so awkward phrasing or errors may occur.

Changelog:
This update overhauls the Industrial focuses, redistributes them for less crowding and better fit with new focuses, and reduces their completion times. A balanced Civilian–Military Industry line has been added between the Civilian and Military Factory lines. Some Industrial focuses have had their times reduced and yield more factories. A new national spirit “Legacy of the Second Five-Year Plan” is added. Kaganovich is reset to “Man of Iron.” The Five-Year Plan spirit bonuses for both Civilian and Military Factory lines are strengthened. The “Domestic Experts” and “Foreign Experts” focus buffs for designers are strengthened (decisions code not yet fully learned, so follow-up decision buffs for Foreign Experts remain unchanged). The Comecon effect is buffed so that it no longer just drains satellites but also grants them a stronger positive buff. The “Impeccable Peace” and “Transform Nature” national spirits are strengthened. The completion times for the “Red Army Victory” and “World Revolution” focuses have been reduced.

Minor Version (Alpha 2.21) Update Plan:
Will include items mentioned but not directly addressed in 2.2.
Agricultural Reform Line: Three branches—Collective Farm (radical collectivization with sub-branches for forced vs. voluntary gradual collectivization), Cooperative (privatization, a milder reform to prevent too steep a drop in peasant production), and a Dual System (both simultaneously for flexibility).
Research Line: Three branches—Transcendence Socialism (severe debuffs for very high research speed), Socialist (Transcendence) (less severe, research-focused with stability buff), and Practical Socialist Science (minimal debuffs with modest research bonus and stability buff).

Next Version (Alpha 2.3) Update Plan:
Complete reset of the Tukhachevsky and Zhukov lines, overhaul of the Army line, and other optimizations—stay tuned.
That’s all for now! More ideas may follow soon—please look forward to them!

PS: There are additional update plans for art and language, but given the Mod’s current scope, they are unlikely to surface soon. After the completion of the centrist paths, updates for Left Opposition, Right Opposition, and even Lenin’s intra-party democracy line will be considered—these are more distant prospects.
That’s the gist of it.
