/r/TNOmod and the Reddit HOI4 modding community - When a subreddit for a video game mod turns to utter insanity

I never really looked into it, but in TFR, is there a path for Ukraine where you can take over the country as AZOV Battalion? I know they're mentioned a bunch of times, but not sure if they can be a playable "government".
Ukraine is supposed to be high on the list for new content but, that was before the Czar split.
 
Speaking of Czar, I still don't have a single clue about what the whole drama was about. Most vids I watched only gave vague details. Someone more clued in able to fill me in on what happened?
Basically Czar and some of the ME devs wanted to create a Patreon for the mod and hoard all that money for themselves. The rest of the team didn't like the idea as getting money from your mods can get you in trouble with Paradox and Czar was always an incompetent gooner weirdo, so they split and made a new discord and Twitter and the like. Czar deleted the mod's git but they managed to find an older version

Czar had a weird Ricardo López-like fascination with the influencer named Gio Scotti who is most famous for being the subject of a meme where the joke is literally just: gay pedophilia.
So make that of what you will.
It also didn't help she's like Bonbibonkers where she had a following before she turned 18 (actually, she only just turned 18 or 19 this year, her rise of popularity started back in 2022/2023 when she was likely 16 or 17).
 
I present to you; the ballistic missile submarine red october Konoe content from 2019 loaded into TNO:RA. The tree itself is 80%~ localized but almost nothing else is. This is also his full tree as far i can see but I'll have to check.

The way i've TOOOSER cropped that final image might imply there's a larger second portion below, but it's actually just a short part of the tree dedicated to Detente with the US and mutual disarmament before the tree ends.

If i stick with this project I'll write a bit more about the general state of unfinished Japan content now that I've had a better look at it sometime soon. Somewhere between a mere fifth to a third of Japan's planned content made it to live, and the only significant addition since release has been Kaya 2 and a few flavor events (half of which are Guangdong related).
 
Does TFR add American warlords for the sake of having warlords? Most factions could easily be merged with others e.g. the 2 black nationalists in RR going to BLA, the other 2 leftists to APLA, having NSM a faction of PF, etc.

NSM is not the same as PF, and the NSM prides itself in being a descendant of the ANP. Meanwhile the PF is more or less Rousseau's club and became a thing less than a decade ago as an off-shoot of Vanguard America, and they aren't even explicitly nazis. There's no world in which the PF just absorbs the NSM

I agree, Burt Colucci is too fat to be absorbed by Tiny Tim.

I mean, should Jackson Hinkle, regular commies and Gay Race Communists really all be in the same nation?

The warlords are to add to regional variety, whoever comes out on top in each region affect the last stage of the second American civil war.

The reason why the APLA are one big tag while PT, NSM, and AWD are separate tags is supposed to be a subversion of the "leftist infighting" schick.

IRL the right-wing in America (both neocons and the dissident right) can broadly be united under the banner of supporting Trump. Well... For the most part, until the topic of capitalism and Israel shows up lol.

Whereas the left-wing in America are constantly at odds with each other as we see reformist Democrats who just really like Bernie a lot, versus unironic DSA communists who stan Mamdani, "left libertarians" aka Vaush, anarchists (aka fat people), Ultras (who hate other leftists more than fascists, read Bordiga it's true), third-party voters who back the PSL, RCP people who hate dem craKKKas n shieeet and want land back (read settlers btw), and of course the MAGA communist types. I've literally seen ZERO examples of any of the aforementioned collaborating with one another. I've never seen a BernieBro advocate for the cause of a anarchist nor a MAGA communist backing someone who votes PSL in an election. The best you get is  maybe the Bernie bros and Mamdani types agreeing to vote blue for an election, but that's it.

Whereas, you WILL see the occasional K-On avi on Xitter retweet a mundane conservative tweet saying "the left-wing are retarded lol". While on the flip side, you WILL see a "we must send trillions of dollars to Israel, total Arab death" type neocon retweet a "I hate niggers" tweet by @GLRdindunuffin1488.

They argue with each other more loudly but when it comes to actual action the left is much better at closing ranks than the right. See every DA who would give a slap on the wrist to antifa over the past decade, or how they'll more or less be on the same page when any assassination or assassination attempt on a right wing figure happens.

The left rewards its vanguard, the right punishes vanguard, and mainstream conservativism has been defined since William F. Buckley by intentionally its talking heads sabotaging and exiling youth movements who try to push the overton window right.
 
Looks like Red Dusk is not completely dead yet.
Did they fix the Ulster thing? I remember that in one of the UK teasers that Lab ou r would be able to give Ulster over to the Republic of Ireland, and this would lead to an IRA communist stratocracy rising up. Unopposed by the 65% Protestant population, I guess? Very frustrating how people forget that the UDA, UVF/RHC existed.
 
Looks like Red Dusk is not completely dead yet. They are teasing the army tree for Red China
I always found it funny that Vietnam got a focus tree on release and China didn't get jack shit.
With luck it'll be better than ATA since China is a superpower in-game and thus able to do much more than the UK
UK also had most of it's content not even added in, specifically the Far-Left and Far-Right paths. (With the former being somewhat in, but iirc it's very barebones)

I'm 90% sure i recall speaking to an Ex-Dev who worked on the UK who claimed that they were planning something with the Loyalist Groups in NI at the time. Idk if that was also canned or not.
