Description
Hexerreich: 2nd American Civil War (2 ACW)

Hexerreich brings the world of Kaiserreich to Hex of Steel through the 2nd American Civil War. This is an ongoing project, and this is the initial release in a minimum playable state. Lots of flavor, balancing, and bug fixing is still needed. I work on this project in my spare time, and as such updates will be inconsistent. I hope you enjoy!

Completed Features:

10 New Custom factions! (Mostly sharing art, but will get flavor over time)
New sprites based on Panzer Corps style!
Custom made North America map. About 90% completed with minor islands and Mexico needing finished. I will release a "resource" version of North America once this is completed.
Two 2nd American Civil War Scenarios. One being a classic Kaiserreich experience, and the other based on the upcoming “Up With the Stars” submod for Kaiserreich. Up With The Stars (UWTS) Scenario includes a Dynamic war start, where claimed starting territory is different in every playthrough!
Fully reworked stats for all units (except naval). This is an ongoing balancing project.
New tiles, including Mines and Oil Fields

Planned/In Progress Features:

New Factions: Dominion of Canada, United Mexican States, and Cuban Republic
Foreign Intervention forces (Union of British, Japan, Dominion of Canada, etc.)
More Flavor/Events

Possibly will create a Kaiserreich World or Europe Scenario down the line, but not a priority.

Open to other suggestions and ideas :)


Known Bugs/Issues:
Various small visual content needs fixed, as well as some unit stats. There wil be upcoming small updates to flesh this out.
The Classic Scenario is lacking units at start currently and will be updated in the near future. I recommend playing the UWTS scenario as of now until I get the classic scenario up to date.
Lots of Balance issues, I will be working through them 😊

@imperial: I have plans to eventually give custom sprites for each faction, but for now they all use the same, its quite time consuming and this was just a passion project for me. I have currently shifted towards some modding for Strategic Command.

@lynx: Thanks for letting me know, I will look into it. Haven't tested much Naval-Air combat.

I prefer the previous sprites felt more like a civil war. Now everthing looks the same dont really like it kills the immersion

Great mod, but there is a bug, tactical bombers do not attack warships.

You probably want to update the description again. HoS has this bug where when updating there is a pretty low maximum number of characters and will truncate the description in the previous version. I think the only way around this is to update the description again via Steam's interface.
