Black ICE Asia Expand
Another goal of this project is to map out the logic and connections within the Black ICE codebase; I have included extensive comments within the files. For fellow modders looking to tweak BICE or create their own independent submods, this project should serve as a valuable reference.
Black ICE: NRA Tank Technology Black ICE: NRA Armored Car Technology
Black ICE: Republic of China Military Organizations Expansion
Black ICE: East Asia Naval Expansion
Black ICE : Korean Peninsula Expansion
Due to limited development time and energy, I currently do not plan on making major overhauls or adding entirely new mechanics, focus trees, or events.
Note: This new mod is likely incompatible with this submod (I haven’t tested it, but proceed with caution).

A new save game is highly recommended; otherwise, some updates may not take effect. This mod may be updated irregularly. If you encounter a "Red Exclamation Mark" on an old save (indicating the mod is not loaded), please delete all files in the C:Users[Your Username]DocumentsParadox InteractiveHearts of Iron IV folder and restart the Paradox launcher to reload the mod files. It is recommended to disable autosave and avoid using other high-intensity AI or overhaul mods simultaneously to prevent crashes or corrupted saves.
