Description:

A small flavor mod which adds the Slovak National Uprising, an armed struggle of the Czechoslovak-oriented Slovak military and partisans against German occupation forces which lasted from 29 August to 28 October 1944. It is perhaps the most defining moment in Slovak history, which hoped to redeem the country’s fascist alignment. For two months the insurgents forced the German High Command to divert roughly 40,000 to 50,000 troops to stabilize the region. By tying down these units, the uprising weakened German defenses against the advancing Red Army in other sectors.


The uprising can trigger in two ways:

1. Slovakia’s overlord (Germany or Hungary) gets an event in a random number of days once the front starts getting close to Slovakia with the option to either not intervene (and risk Slovakia launching the uprising on its own anyway), or launch a preemptive strike, which will ensure that insurgent Slovakia loses all its existing divisions, generals and gets a debuff.
2. Once a province neighboring Slovakia is captured by the Allies or the Soviets, Slovakia will get the option to either remain faithful to its overlord, or launch the uprising. This option allows Slovakia to retain its existing divisions, two generals and not receive the debuff.


+Included are 6 generals for fascist Slovakia, 2 generals of the uprising and many advisors with unique portraits.
+Added the ability to switch from Czechoslovakia to Slovakia in the 1936 start date if Germany chooses to set up a puppet Slovak State.
