Description:
EUROPUNK
An EU submod for The Fire Rises

The European project faces its greatest test. Forces internal and external threaten our Unity in Diversity. The fate of our Union rests in your hands.
Good luck, Director.

Europunk 0.5 "Mansholt"
WHAT’S NEW IN 0.5:

– Revamped political tree: Lots of new events, new decisions, new choices
– 22 Subideologies in total to discover, alongside some unique leaders
– Mini-trees for the Atlantic War, Second European War, Great Asian War
– EUFOR is now blue
– EDF division namelists
– Some more cool things, as always

The Europunk music mod: only for the true Europunks among us:

By popular demand, Europunk is now on Discord. Find us Here [discord.gg]

EUROPOL:

– Accept the job of Operations Director for the European Union Agency For Law Enforcement Cooperation as it attains new powers (player customisation allowed)
– Lead a counter-terror team in XCOM-adjacent raids and plot-advancing missions (some with multiple outcomes to discover)
– Content until January 2022 (Now that this proof of concept is ready, I’ve got events until 2030 planned)
– Ten unique agents to boss around, NO plans for dating sim implementation (for now)
– No rush to complete (most) missions, but try and complete your current set before the end of each year
– Focus on quality over quantity

FEDERAL EU:

– New Post-European-War Focus Tree for victorious Germany or France
HOW TO GET TREE: Win 1st European War, take focus "A New Post-War Era" (if France) or "United and Undefeated" (if Germany), wait a few days. An event will pop up allowing you to switch to Europunk’s tree.
– European Parliament system, party popularities change with each absorbed member state
– European Parliament elections, over 30 potential Presidents (absorb different member states to find them all!)
– Unique subtrees for The Left, S&D, Renew Europe, EPP, and ECR
– European Defense Force research, attempt the ungodly task of standardising equipment with experimental prototypes
– Same interventions available as German postwar tree, now with possibilities to intervene in Great Asian War & détente with Russia (a bit janky though)
– Ability to spread the good word of evidence-based policy and federalism to all continents
– Focus on quantity over quality (Lacking localisation but plenty of buttons to press)

OTHER ADDITIONS:

– European Space Agency content
– Heads of Government for more EU member states, some dynamically change over time (a)historically
– New Generals for Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, the UK
– Designed for maximum compatibility with TFR & other submods
– A handful of easter eggs

ROADMAP:

– Europol content >2022
– Fleshed out Federal EU events
– More potential leaders
– Flavour events (sports, pop culture, etc)
– More ‘punk’, not just ‘Euro’

DISCLAIMER:

– This is a silly side project that got a little out of hand. You have a right to know that, regrettably, generative AI was used for portraits and about five events. I’ve tried to stop it from being jarring and detracting from the mod where possible.

CREDITS:

– The TFR Team, obviously (especially whoever does the focus tree icons)
– Me

SUPPORT:

– I don’t mod to pay the bills, I mod because it’s fun! There’s always an opportunity cost, of course. To anyone wanting to show some very direct support to this solo dev, consider buying me a coffee with the Ko-Fi link here:
