Generic Focus Tree: Redux
GFT: Redux is a complete rework and reimagining of the vanilla generic focus tree.
My goal wasn’t to make five hundred, a thousand, or a million focuses – instead, I aimed to make the new tree more functional and gameplay-oriented, giving both the player and the AI options that the vanilla tree simply doesn’t provide.
Whatever your impression is, please take a moment to rate my work.❤️
• Expanded political tree. Significantly extended politics branch that allows you to bring any ideology to power.
• Reworked military and industry paths. No more pointless “decorative” focuses – every one has a purpose.
• Meaningful choices. Many mutually exclusive focuses ensure every playthrough feels unique. You’ll need to think strategically when choosing between different focuses and their bonuses.
• Balance. I’ve tried to maintain balance not only between ideologies but also between major and minor nations.
• Improved ideologies: Each ideology now has unique strengths, making all of them viable – not just fascists like in vanilla.
• Dynamic gameplay. The new tree allows both players and AI to start civil wars, form alliances, and declare wars over territory, making AI-controlled nations feel more alive.
• Simplicity. Functionality is combined with visual clarity – everything is intuitive and easy to follow without getting lost in endless paths and branches.
• Localization. The mod is translated into all languages supported by Hearts of Iron IV, so everyone can enjoy the new focus tree.
Is this mod compatible with others, such as Road56?
Partially. I can’t guarantee that the focus trees will automatically switch to GFT: Redux, but you do have the option to set the new focus tree manually through a decision.
This is my first mod, and I’m completely open to criticism and suggestions. Please report any issues you encounter during your playthrough – I’ll be glad to improve and balance the mod further.
