New Content

-International Forces: Defeat the Legionary Rebellion, win back the people’s trust, and choose the future of the expedition.
-Indianapolis: Defeat the Collaborators, prepare for total war, and form an alliance with Erie or go in alone.
-Chicago: Affirm the legitimacy of president Thomas, fight against capitalist influence, and reform your army of ragtag militias into a proper fighting force with a unique reform mechanic.
-Milwaukee: Pick up the scraps of the collapsed 6th Army and transform Wisconsin into a state ready to wage war on your quest to find a true king for America.
-Minnesota: uphold America’s true ideals by resisting the influence of both far-left and far-right demagogues while remaining a beacon of democracy. Unique campaigning mechanic added.
-Iowa: Prepare for total civil war! Affirm loyalty to the Federalists under MacNider’s rule, align with Minnesota’s ideals under Herring’s Free Iowa, or bring the revolution west under Jacob Devers’ Dubuque Expedition.
-Sioux Falls (formerly Bismarck): smuggle in goods from Canada, utilize veteran associations, and bribe enemy commanders to return corporate hegemony to the nation.
-Flavor news events for South American countries and the European situation

Touch-Ups
-Ojibwe replaced with the Minnesotan Red Army
-Sioux Nation has been removed and replaced by Sioux Falls and North Dakota
-Lakota has been broken up, adding 3 new starting warlords to Montana
-Officer corps mechanics integrated into the mod
-Several generals added to all warlords

-New starting situations for Pueblo, Deseret, Great Plains, Mississippi settlements, Northern Mandate, Southern –Mandate, Sequoyah, Spokane, Orange County, and Oregon.
-Newfoundland replaced with the United Kingdom itself.

Balancing
-Old trees removed until they can be fixed.
-Division costs have been reduced to compensate for the larger map. Due to this, warlords also start with much more divisions.
-Every warlord starts with better technology
-Railroads galore
-American Warlord idea split into Warlord Economy law and no longer punishes research as much
Erie, Sioux Falls, and Milwaukee start with tanks.
-“Legacy of the Civil War” idea removed for Great Lakes warlords

Bug Fixes
-Fixed all NSB-related crashes
-Mandate Phoenix finally removed somehow
-Fixed Indianapolis not being able to unite with Sioux Falls
-Iowa can now march West
-Fixed a few generals being in the wrong tags

Known Bugs (either in the process of fixing or not able to)
-Invisible rivers (can still be interacted with but not seen)
-Strange advisor gfx
-Generics not having portraits
-Border wars acting strange (a core issue for hoi4 itself)
