check out my mod at http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?539095-Upcoming-Mod-A-World-To-Win

The Premise:

From roughly 1918-20 a series of violent revolutions shook Europe. Germany, Hungary, Italy-all ended in the creation of so called socialist states dedicated to ending capitalism and destroying the Bourgeoisie once and for all.

By 1936, the situation in Europe was looking tense. the Third Reich, created out of Bavaria and a merger with Austria, who's leader Adolf Hitler vowed to 'liberate northern Germany', had formed an alliance with fascist France and Britain that was dedicate to ending socialism in Europe through force.

Elsewhere in the world, FDR grappled with holding his divided nation together. Having recently broken off from the Union, the American Commune vowed to finish what they started, and with soviet aid, bring an end to capitalism in America. The world watched as a third civil war broke out...

In China Mao and his communists are locked in seemingly never ending combat with the Nationalists, who seek to destroy communism in China. Further south, the Philippines is experiencing a revolution of its own as America falls apart, the local communists seeking to end their puppet status and subservience to America.

In Indochina, the people are ruthlessly exploited by their fascist French masters. A determined Ho Chi Minh, with blessings from Moscow, has vowed to one day return to his homeland and free his people.

This is A World of class war, a world of world war. But to the communists, there is a better world to win.

A World To Win: When the revolution comes, which side will you be on?

I'm pretty active down at Pdox (well, I used to be anyway :p). I'll be sure to check out your mod. :) Looks pretty cool.

I'll try to get round to posting some feedback after I've played it a bit.

There have been a few delays(mostly out of laziness- i mean who wants to code AI?) but it should be done soon. about 70% of the mod has been done since late May. The Map is done. got some events.

OOB, Techs, AI, among other things have to be done though so it should take a while before being completed. hope you enjoy the mod.

well, first do you have steam? its free. after you download steam, buy Darket Hour for $10. After that, just wait for my mod to be finished and I'll post a download link on the forums.

I recommend downloading in the mean time the mod Kaiserreich, about an alternate WWI wherein the central powers won, and syndicalism replaced communism as a movement opposed to capitalism following the failure of the Bolsheviks in the Russian Civil War.(???doesn't make a whole lot of sense but whatever.)
